This is some of the raw footage I'd captured for my Hydro Thunder Series Retro Review from awhile back. Venice Canals, one of the Expert Tracks, probably the hardest in the game (or at least joint hardest with Nile Adventure).

This was such a frustrating race... I absolutely nailed the start of it, getting the red boost in the Rialto Bridge and the one straight after it, but it all fizzled out at the end as I missed a couple of the boosts towards the end of the track and just couldn't catch up with the lead CPU ships.

This is being played on Flycast Dreamcast emulator which upscales and smooths out the polygons a lot. The game looks ace like this! I had the widescreen option on, but the game didn't go into wide-screen properly (I could see the water and other bits of the track, but bit of the course would be missing), so I ended up cropping all the 16:9 footage back into 4:3
