Wow! That's more like it! Got a few questions if you don't mind. How far did you get? Did you actively stick around and rack up points or was your primary goal just to stay alive and beat the levels?
I seem to be stuck in the 50-60k range, any tips?

The difference between finishing fast and slow is only 1000 point whereas you have 4 minutes for each level before you run out of time. I spent the maximum time on the first 2 levels gathering points and then died at the start of level 3. You can rack up some points this way but I do notice that the game increases in difficulty dramatically not just on how far you get but how many points you have. IE level 2 is a lot harder entering it with 50k than if you enter it with 25k...

has anyone finished the game by continued play?

Just finished it last night by using *lots* and *lots* of continues. It gets really hard towards the end & you end up just blitzing your car forward & sacrificing it in hopes that you'll hit the next checkpoint.
Strangely, the score on my 1st continue used the score from my original credit as its starting point, but all subsequent continues started from 0. :dunno
The game starts over after you kill The Zapper boss, & the difficulty doesn't seem to go up. I just played out my remaining couple of guys & got most of the way through the 1st stage & didn't notice anything different relative to the first time through.
Thanks,
