Several of the courses on the game are from Test Drive 5 (1998), the previous installment. The Pelton Raceway course might be the secret Silverstone Track that could be unlocked in some versions of Test Drive 5.
One of the pedestrian traffic car models on the London course a modeled after the Pitbull Special vehicle in both Test Drive 4 (1997) and Test Drive 5 (1998), without the motor, the designs, and the tongue in front of the grille.
Unlike the previous installments, no cars made up by the developers were in this game, it was also the first Test Drive game to have a truck.
