3	'''Mad Dash Racing''' is a video game released in 2001 for the original Platform/{{Xbox}}. It was developed by Creator/CrystalDynamics and published by Eidos Interactive. It's a racing game with the twist that the characters all race on foot.

5	Unfortunately, the game never was made backwards compatible with the Platform/Xbox360[[note]]technically, it was, but only a couple seconds into a race, the game freezes[[/note]] and hasn't been re-released for the Platform/XboxOne, so the only way to play it is to still have an original Xbox and game disc.
6	----
7	!! This game contains examples of:
8	* TheAhnold: Tremlord is a hulking, muscular Tremmel who speaks in a comical Austrian accent.
9	* BootstrappedTheme: The song created specifically for the game, "Mad Dash", only plays on certain levels. Whereas the song that is heard every time you start the game is "Roll it Up" by The Crystal Method, so it's easier to claim that as the game's theme song.
10	* TheCameo: VideoGame/{{Gex}} is one of the hidden characters.
11	* ChainedByFashion: Big Blue wears a single manacle around his ankle with a broken chain attached to it.
12	* CoveredInScars: None are visible on his model, but Zero-G attests that he's "Only scarred about the face, chest, neck and head."
13	* EdibleAmmunition: Throwable fruit is one of the most common power-ups.
14	* ForcedTransformation: At the end of the story mode, Hex gets turned into a pig.
15	* {{Gasshole}}: Chops the Boar belches and farts near-constantly. [[AllThereInTheManual According to the manual]], his fascination with motorcycles may stem from the fact that he can't stand the smell when he's in a car with himself.
16	* InstitutionalApparel: Spanx wears a tattered straitjacket.
17	%%* LethalLavaLand: Mt. Magma.
18	* NotQuiteFlight: One of the power-ups allows you to glide for a short time.
19	* RubberBandAI: Unfortunately, the game has a pretty bad case of it. You could be dominating for the entire race but lose in the last stretch because the computer suddenly gets faster.
20	* ShellshockedVeteran: Zero-G is apparently a veteran of some armed conflict, and is prone to flashbacks mid-race.
21	%%* SlippySlideyIceWorld: Alpine.
22	* SpeechImpediment: Clawdius the Lion speaks with a lisp.
23	%%* StealthInsult: "Hmm, this one seems a little less incompetent than the rest."
24	* WrenchWench: Betty evokes this aesthetic, and even carries a giant wrench wit her which she [[WrenchWhack uses as a bludgeon]].
