Not the best, but nowhere near the worst.

When I did my bargain bin rounds I found this game and figured for the price I'd give it a shot. At first it's much like Gran Turismo which it's painfully obvious this game borrow heavily from, as you start with a limited amount of cash to buy from a limited amount of cars. You build up your car as much as you possibly can to get ahead and win some races, which you'll need to race over and over and over again just to get enough cash to purchase an even better car to compete. Once you're feeling gutsy enough you can attempt "license" tests which really only unlock a new series or races and have nothing to do with much else as in Gran Turismo.

The feel of the cars on the track is a bit stiff at times and with the damage meter which goes down for even the tiniest bump you'll often win a race with little to no prize money. AI doesn't seem to car where you are on the track so getting ahead and staying ahead is the key to winning. Once you've got a handle on the game there are plenty of cars and races to keep you occupied for quite a while and you may even enjoy it. The key is to give this game time but after you've reached the top level the AI gets insanely strong making it a bit harder to keep your lead and impossible to win a drag race.

All in all this game just needed a bit more thought but since it's already launched it's up to the player to give it time and enjoy whats presented to them. Plenty of cars and ways to make them faster, I've enjoyed this game for quite some time and I think others will too.
