How it feels

A breezy yet competitive racing game that blends arcade accessibility with just enough physics simulation to reward clean driving across a wide variety of tracks and eras.

What players say

Players praise the career mode and the unusual licensed car list but are split on the handling, which some find fun and others too arcadey or floaty. Almost everyone agrees the AI is terrible, often crashing into the player with no awareness.
