You think it would be better if we had the NTSC cover of CTR instead of the PAL cover? I feel that should be in the, you know, other-language parts of WikiPedia. Cat's Tuxedo 15:42, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
Agree or not? Mlaheji 13:22, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
In the track listing on this page, most of the tracks have a character listed next to them. I was just wondering, since I've never encountered one, does racing as a character on "their track" have a special advantage? Does each character having their own track affect the game in any way? If so, then the effect should be added to the article to make it clearer. If not, then the idea of character tracks should be removed from the article, as it's purely a fan thing with no encyclopedic merit.
Of course it doesn't. And it's obvious why each character has their own track. Play Team Racing and you'll see. It's a cosmetic thing, and CERTAINLY isn't fan based. CBFan 19:07, 9 January 2007 (UTC) CBFan.
Yeah, get a life. Coco 01:15, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
be civil guys. BTW I'm pretty sure those character-specific tracks do put that character in 1st, (no excuse for bad manners though).-- Headcase 07:50, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
Should we maybe merge these with the character sections, to both save space and round out the character descriptions a little?
I heard this game is part of the Crash Bandicoot main series from Crash O Pedia (The others are Crash Bandicoot, Cortex Strikes Back, Warped, Wrath of Cortex, and Twinsanity). is this true? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 63.3.2.129 ( talk) 23:37, 19 March 2007 (UTC).
That is an unreliable source. Crash Team Racing is probably non-canon, even though Oxide does appear briefly in Twinsanity, his appearance there is never referenced during the battle by Cortex, so that appearance could just be put down as being non-canon. Michael Mad 19:02, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
While CrashMania is CERTAINLY NOT unreliable, if you were to pay attention, you'd know that that page is marked as "Speculated" and "purely opinion." CrashMania is certainly reliable, but there are pages where it is blatantly marked as opinion. Only then should it be disregarded. Jumpbutton 00:20, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
It's an unanswerable question, because of a plothole between Team Racing and Twinsanity. Oxide appears in Twinsanity, so Team Racing must be canon, but at the very end of the game, he said he'd leave Earth alone, and seeing as he shows up at Earth again, that would mean that Team Racing can't be canon. In fact, one could even consider Twinsanity as non-canon in that aspect.
Well, CBfan, while Oxide did appear in Twinsanity, that appearance may not be canon, mostly due to the very nature of Twinsanity, where charcters, particularly Cortex, break through the fourth wall. It could be something just put in there by the developers for fun. Also, the events of CTR have never really been referenced in any later canon game(WOC, Twinsanity), with the exception of that minor appearance by Oxide, which Cortex never even comments about in the fight. Michael Mad 13:10, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
We need a cover picture for CTR. Coco 03:16, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
I will hereby take it uppon myself to announce that N. Oxide is in no known way unlockable to be played with in CTR.
The only way you are able to race as him, is by using a cheating device such as GameShark, Action Replay, etc.
To provoide a source for my information, as well as proof, I have been reading through this entire thread.

I kindly request that you leave this part of the article alone:
If you don't beleive me, please take your time to read through the thread's 31 pages, and you will see that the people on the board has tested about any rumor, and/or technique which is known, and has confirmed them all to be false.
However, if you are able to provoide evidences stating the opposite, you're more than welcome to show us all.
Pure words claiming it, are not evidences, in case anyone wonders.
I hope this cleared up everything, and that people won't be troubleling that part of the article again.

Image:Crash team racing 004.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Well it's kinda wierd that all the crash racing game are at racing catagory but Crash Team Racing is at the main series category... Even the video game name include "racing" at his title so this game spouse to be at the racing category and not at the main series category. 82.80.144.4 ( talk) 12:05, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

The credits as showing Andy Gavin even involved with this project are wrong. Andy was the VP of the company but he was busy making a PS2 engine for Jak & Daxter. Daniel Chan was the lead programmer of CTR. You can verify Andy was not a programmer on this game on his own blog [1]
Showing Charlotte Francis as a programmer is also wrong. She's an artist, not a programmer. You can verify this here [2] send
I corrected the credits since I was on the team.

Wikipedia guidelines say devs must be listed as those roles. No such documentation exists. The credits in both the game and manual just list all Naughty Dog employees including "Morgan" the boss's dog [3] [4]
And no I don't understand. Giving people too much credit for things they didn't do is fake news, false info, untruth. AFAIK that is not what Wikipedia is about — Preceding unsigned comment added by Greggman ( talk • contribs) 02:27, 18 March 2018 (UTC) Greggman ( talk) 02:39, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
Also please stop listing Grady as the producer. He's listed under Sony of America. If you check other versions of the game, the Japanese version, the European version, he won't be listed because he was not a producer of Crash Team Racing, he was a producer in general at Sony USA. For example the Producer in Japan was TSURUMI-600 [5]. The producer in Europe was David Bowry [6]. None of them are listed as "Lead Producer" nor were they the Naughty Dog's producer so by the same rules no producer should be listed
