In the Generic Racing Game, the pawns of the players represent their racers, ready to race down the track.
The rules are exactly this: rules and nothing else. There is no given track to race upon, as you can create your own track just with a pencil and a sheet of common grid paper.
As racing always has been part of mankind's sports culture, there are a couple of themes given on the last sides of the rulebook, so you are free to choose the setting as well as the orientation of the gameplay (tactics, luck, wargame).
As a solitaire option, you can always race a track on your own and try to beat the number of turns you took on every subsequent lap.
