Woody Woodpecker Racing is a 2000 video game published by Konami and developed by Syrox Developments, based on the animated series The New Woody Woodpecker Show (and the animated short film series created by Walter Lantz).[4] A Dreamcast version was originally scheduled to release on April 3, 2001.[5] In 2023, the Dreamcast source files were compiled into a playable format.[6]

The game features four modes: a single-player Quest mode, score-based World Championship mode, time-trial mode, and single-race mode. Players can choose from four vehicles, including: jalopies, all-terrain vehicles, stock cars, and racers.[7]
