This keeps the action in the game.
Another new thing is that the gadgets touched while racing do not come into effect immediately.
They need to be triggered manually by pressing up on the D-pad.
There are 3 GPs to compete in and each GP has 6 tracks.
The names of the GPs are:* Purple Chaos GP White Chaos GP Blue Chaos GP Racing skills can be improved in the Free Run mode on any of the tracks, or, with a Gear-to-Gear cable and a spare copy of the game, direct competition against another human player in the versus mode.
About Sega Game Gear
Sega's Game Gear (1990) was a technically capable handheld competitor to the Game Boy, notable for its full-color backlit screen — a real advantage at the time, offset by famously poor battery life. Its commercial underperformance against Nintendo's handheld means smaller print runs overall, and complete, well-preserved cartridges (the plastic shells are prone to yellowing and cracking) are a genuine niche within retro handheld collecting.
Gamevaro tracks Sonic Drift 2 for Sega Game Gear with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Sonic Drift 2 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GG release dates back to 1995.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Sonic Drift 2, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Sega Game Gear titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
