Grand Prix Construction Set is a computer game for the BBC Micro originally released in 1987 by Superior Software. It is a basic simulation of Formula One coupled with the facility to design tracks.[2] It can be played in full screen single-player or two-player split screen modes.

Unlike the majority of Superior's BBC Micro games at the time, it was not possible to convert the game to the Acorn Electron but a game that started out as an Electron equivalent became the BBC/Electron motorbike racing game Crazee Rider.

Legacy

It was also available on the 1988 Superior Software compilation Play It Again Sam 4, along with Frak!, Cosmic Camouflage, and Spellbinder.
