I've recently went back to play Wacky Wheels, but oh my that frame-rate gives me a headache.
Is there any mod, remaster or some magic that increases the frame-rate maybe? (And no I'm not talking about that modern 3D remake 😅)
Try it in DOSBox and crank up the cycles.
I think the same. Try fixed cycles, maybe. "Auto" uses higher cycles for Protected-Mode stuff, I vaguely remember. Like Windows 3. 1 or DOS games using DOS4GW.
Skunny Kart or Whacky Wheels are Real-Mode, though. Maybe with 32-Bit i386 instructions mixed in.
Try typing cycles=fixed 9000 at DOSBox prompt. Or any higher value

I think that's not what Good_Punk ask guys. The frame rate is locked to a quite low value so once you reach that you can't go smoother regardless of dosbox cycles or real hardware power.
yeah... the game is something like 15~20fps?
I often wished for a patch to bring it at least to 30~35fps , it would be way more enjoyable on capable systems

Well, that's a different story. OP didn't mention this.
Yeah, sorry for not clarifying this in the first place, my bad. 😅
The game is "meant" to run so slow, it's not down to any performance issues.
