e-Racer is a video game for Microsoft Windows created by Rage Software. It is a GT arcade racing game in which the player competes against computer opponents or other human players online in eight different cars. The single player game consists of an Arcade mode and a Championship mode, where one would have to race against 7 other computer opponents and would need to finish either first or second in each race in order to advance to the next round. An Xbox version was planned but cancelled.[1]
