Board-Track Racer is a free, released arcade race by RTKGames. You ride a motorcycle on a steep wooden oval, three laps against three rivals. Lean through the banking, slide toward the rail, or take the inside line. The HEAT gauge is the brake on greed: hold full throttle at top speed too long and the engine overheats and slows you. Finishing, winning, and fast laps unlock paint jobs. Best laps are saved in the browser. Keyboard and touch are both listed.
How a session of Board-Track Racer starts
Throttle, lean, and brake are the whole cockpit. Touch players hold the right side of the screen to accelerate and the left side to lean. L opens the best-lap board. A race is three laps, so a mistake on the first banking still leaves two laps to answer it. Paint unlocks are the only persistence the notes describe besides those lap times.
What you actually decide
How long to hold full throttle before heat becomes a slowdown, and which line through the bank saves distance without putting you in a rival. There is no vehicle upgrade. A new paint job does not make the bike faster, as far as the listing says. It is a reward for finishing, winning, or a fast lap.
Controls and the first screen
Space, Up, or W throttle. Left or A leans. Down or S brakes. L shows best laps. On a touch screen, hold the right side to throttle and the left side to lean. Click the game before the first race so the keyboard reaches it.
What the listing does not promise
Three laps and three rivals are the listed race shape. This site has not recorded a lap time. Heat behavior is described, not given as a number of seconds. The game is free and released. Overall career length is not specified beyond repeating that race.
Where Board-Track Racer runs
Board-Track Racer is published by RTKGames on itch.io. This directory does not host the build, does not re-upload it, and does not put the author’s files inside an iframe unless the author offers an allowlisted embed. Use the official link on this page. If a control, a price, or a version on itch.io disagrees with a sentence here, the author page wins. RTKGames hosts it on itch.io, including the browser save for best laps.
A first sitting
Run one race without watching heat, then one race where you lift the throttle whenever the gauge climbs. Compare the lap board with L. If a paint job unlocks, check whether the bike feels different. The listing talks about unlocks as cosmetics tied to results, not as speed parts.
