Hot Rods of the Gods

Hot Rods of the Gods is an adventure published by West End Games in 1986 for the light-hearted role-playing game Ghostbusters, which is itself based on the comedy movie Ghostbusters.

After the Ghostbusters are summoned to help a local family whose teenage daughter is mysteriously levitating, the Ghostbusters accidentally summon a gang of intergalactic juvenile delinquents to come back to the Earth.

To prevent the aliens from vandalizing the Manhattan skyline, the Ghostbusters must engage them in a flying car demolition derby.

WEG then published Ghost Toasties (1986) followed quickly by the second separate adventure for the game, Hot Rods of the Gods, a 48-page book with a cardstock map written by Daniel Greenberg,[1] with interior illustrations by Timothy Meehan, and cover art by Richard Johnson.

In the August 1987 edition of Dragon (Issue #124), Ken Rolston called this adventure "a fine example of role-playing humor and staging.
