In case anyone is wondering how to actually play this game properly... here's a small video that shows you how to drive fast without any mistakes. It's essential to learn when to release the throttle and when to push it; see how the speed varies between 250 km/h in the easiest part to just 5 km/h in the toughest part.

@1up, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, so that's fine. Green Ball Gambling is very different kind of game, a niché game if you like, which probably doesn't appeal to the masses who enjoy traditional / action-packed gameplay.
