Cars have a certain amount of health and fuel, which decreases whenever the player crashes into a wall or another car, as well as whenever he or she drives off of the road.
This game, along with its sequel, was possibly an ancestor to the Mario Kart series, most likely due to the fact that it features Mario and possesses similar 2D racing mechanics, which was later carried on to Super Mario Kart.
About Famicom Disk System
Japan-only, the Famicom Disk System (1986) was Nintendo's floppy-disk-based add-on for the Famicom, hosting several games (including the original Legend of Zelda and Metroid) before they were later ported to cartridge internationally. Because it never released outside Japan and its proprietary floppy disks degrade over time, complete, working Famicom Disk System software is a specialized import-collecting niche.
