ABSTRACT:
A simulated racing game is provided wherein at least two tokens compete against each other on a closed track to see which token crosses a finish line first, and includes at least one random number generator for determining at least one of the forward and lateral movement of the tokens on the track, the track having an inside and an outside, and being divided into a plurality of equal length segments, each segment having a grid-like pattern of subsegments defining a plurality of lanes and spaces within each lane; and at least a portion of the track being curved so that in the curved portion, as a token progresses from the inside to the outside, the lanes of a segment have more spaces than lanes located closer to the inside. Odds are calculated for the chances of each token crossing the finish line first, and of each token crossing into the next segment upon a specified number of turns, and players may make bets based on at least one token based on the calculated odds. Also, a system of token movement is provided which simulates actual horse racing action.
