This is a link to the Amiga version (1.2), i was curious about it after reading in the wiki that it contains les bugs.
QuoteAmiga version
It seems that only publisher for Amiga was Mindscape; therefore, the game was published under the name 4D Sports Driving.
Only one version was available : it was version was 1.2, converted to Amiga from PC version.
This version has less bugs than PC versions.

4D Sports Driving 1.2 (1992-01-10)

I have not tested it yet. I will do that asap.

But the emulator part may be interesting..

suspicious-looking website - too many links were you can download stuff that redirects to other sites...

Most downloads I open first in a VM. But I know this site. Never had any issues.

But I'll check it for you.  8)
I unpacked it on my android phone.
Seems ok.

There's a lot of stuff from the emulator. Haven't checked it on my pc yet. But I extracted the game file's. (That's what it's all about any way)

This I zipped myself.  8)

Oh!  I'd like to try that on my computer. The Amiga had lots of great games many of which I got to know when they had a DOS version (often coming a year or so later than the Amiga one). Still, I never had an Amiga emulator. Worth trying :)  But yes, I had heard that developers would put more effort on the Amiga versions because, at the time, Amiga was for gamers and PC for business people (more or less).

Those videos were made on low graphic settings.
Except for the colour palette the game runs fine in the emulator.

Cool. I'll definitely going to play with them. I wonder if the port to Amiga is the reason some bugs are gone. Change in code because of the difference in hardware...

wat a pain to find a program that lets me open and explore a amiga floppy image.
But i finaly found one that works....

https://sourceforge.net/projects/adfopus/

Edit:
I've extracted the files from the disk images and repacked them.
they can now be opened on any system for comparison with 1.1 version.

Edit 2:
Custom cars don't work in the Amiga version. (Crashes the game)
