...a shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a TAS'er, that shall exist? Let me explain that it is right-off-the-bat very difficult to get through the first level without gas, and manipulating luck to get extra gas is indeed a must. Plus, you might waste more gas if you keep using Kitt's Turbo Boost. I would say this could be a combination of Rad Racer and Jackal. Is it possible to TAS this game and see what comes up? I dunno, I love the TV show and I even have season 4 on DVD, but I am concerned about Knight Rider as a video game.

wait, so, is there an actual WIP, or is this just speculation?

I'll give you a taste of it. Level 1 demo http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/110076412/Knight%20Rider%20%28U%29%20%5B%21%5D.fcm This will be a long drive, I'm afraid. And with traffic in the way, not even General Lee can stand up to KITT. Bonnie gives me one upgrade point for the first level. I can get more strength for the shield, I can start with more gas, or my engine can achieve a maximum speed of about 210 mph instead of 190. This means strategy.

Wow, being over tired and watching a movie that has a fucked up perspective really knows how to mess with your mind... I am convinced you were driving a helicopter. That said, I do not think this would make a good TAS. Repetitive, and relatively pointless (IMHO) gameplay. Unless you get out and kick some ass, driving around, shooting people, and dodging others is a bit too boring for my taste.

Yeah, I figured KITT's dashboard was stored and used inside a helicopter. And KITT is not completely revealed until "GOAL" appears on the screen. If it helps, I look to get rid of all red and yellow vehicles. Should I TAS this game and see how fast and maybe boring it could get, I might get something out of it. To say the least, maybe I can reveal the dark side of Michael Knight and make KITT blow up their own black semi-truck everytime it sees one! That could be impressive, lol...

After watching someone loop this game 3 times.. I can honestly say.... do NOT Tas this. It's not a fun game by any means... both modes are just.. ugh... nothing impressive. Unlike Rad Racer, this put me to sleep... literally. Mr. Kelly R. Flewin

I looked at this game several more times, and I came to an agreement. Not TAS'able, moving on. =)
