What works
The game works fine after a little set up. The problem is not Wine related hence the Platinum rating.
What does not
Out-of-the-box the game suffers from the ``fast timer'' bug. It is not Wine fault. (see: http://carmageddon.wikia.com/wiki/Glitch:Sped_up_timer)
Workarounds
What was not tested
Later stages. Installer, for installing I used a zipped copy I made years ago.
Hardware tested

Additional Comments
You can work around the fast timer bug using the cnc-ddraw ddraw.dll implementation (http://hifi.iki.fi/cnc-ddraw/). This ddraw implementation allows also to set any resolution (the game stretches to it). Just copy the new ddraw.dll file in the directory with carm95.exe and use ddraw.dll override as (native, builtin).
