I am surprised that no one posted the full official soundtrack of this "hidden PS1 Japan-only masterpiece" yet, since it was digitally preserved for the 1st time in Internet Archive last March 29, 2018. But here we are, wait no more (and longer)... this is also my 1st video to cover the official soundtrack from a PlayStation game in my channel, except Thrill Drive 3 (uploaded November 28, 2022) that's PS2-embedded for arcades (exclusively).

Well, this whole soundtrack is (almost all of them) a banger, not gonna lie. Might post my gameplay video (all courses, but only in "automatic transmission") about this in the near future (or sooner).
