Are you kidding me? Who's sick twisted idea was it to put slaloms in here??? Holy crap I can't do it...been here 7 hours now total playing this game, all i have left is all slaloms...Man you really don't want us to have that hulk car huh?

The Slalom's are the only thing giving me any trouble. Just to rough to be able to get them while doing turns. And Indeed, having the first place racing getting huge boosts is very unfair. Seeing as he isn't behind anyone to get such long boosts.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy. Slalom is a bit of a challenge, but nowhere near the INSANE DIFFICULTY everyone seems to percieve.

Hard badge should be impossible. There is no way its actually possible to gold on those slaloms. The car has like zero turning and you have to go like one mile per hour to hit most of them

I think there is a bug on the February Race "Blue Cow Challenge. Day 2". I made my opponent spin out in 55 seconds, and I received the Gold Medal... It seems that the game uses the wrong timer (the one which go down instead of the one who go up).

This was a relatively easy hard badge, since you can get it as early as the first competition in May. The slalom courses were the hardest, so you can just skip them if you want. Just upgrade the engine to the max, then boosting, and drop a few upgrades to tires and damage meanwhile if you're having problems with those. In the beginning, just do the course, and avoid the other cars. Later on you can pretty much just boost straight through crowds and still end up with a full boost gauge when you clear them.
Now, the hardest part is to accurately determine your position and targets on the road just in the beginning and after curves, since the car behaves very differently there. I also think the camera is very jittery, especially on straights, but that's a minor point.

I like the game, but the hit bonus seems pointless. I just got 1700 for coming in 4th, and a whole 18 extra for my hit bonus.

This game is one of my favorite. This is just a challenging game. I completed it all with outstanding gold medals. I will give a tips for those who have hard time achieving gold in certain events such as 'slalom gates'. First, you need to have a good timing with brakes and boost. Second, when turning to get to the next pass, you need to slow down by pressing arrow down key or s key and when you go straight, hit the boost. Practice it with good timing on brake and boost combo. Also, about the 'hit haddock', you don't need to be fast. All you need is to slow when there is 2-3 haddock in a row but if you go drive along with haddock on the far distance, of course BOOST up 'cause time is running fast. About the 'overtake', you need to master DRAFTING 'cause it's the key on winning to BOOST up your speed. Drafting collects boost power. HAVE FUN! ^_^

i just finished the game with everything hulk car and full stats, i enjoyed the game and it was a small chalenge bt now it feels pointless to go back and do achievments. This game is fun while it lasts but once your done it starts to really suck.

the harder the race the better the payoff (gold), if not why would I ever want to gain gold on any other than the first race. then go and beat all

DAMN! Finally i got the hard badge after 2 hours. I hate these challenges... I vote the badge "absolutly impossible" for 44 gold medals... you cant beat some challenges (for example slalom...) how to beat?? never ever play this game again. i have all badges and im happy, that i dont have to play this game again...

This is actually a vampire game, not a racing game. You go behind a car and feed boost from it by drafting.
Then you boost till you reach the next herd of cars – making sure not to run out of food (AKA boost). Then feed some more till you have enough to reach the next herd.
The enemy in the game in not the other cars (they are the prey), the enemy is the road that constantly tries to throw you off, and shake you off of your prey. I guess the road is trying to protect them?

@Funny2k8: press "P" to pause it. There is a "replay" feature there to restart if you biff a course up pretty bad off the start.

The AI is cheating with their use of boost. I think it should be fixed, at least that it is not obvious as the first racer using up 3 gauges of nitro without the means to recharge it...

Maneuvering controls are WAY too coarse to be able to do the collision and maneuvering courses without multiple attempts and lots of luck

Shits, I feel like a masochist trying to pass all the object collecting missions...
It should be an Impossible Badge!

Also, what's the point of the hit bonus. A dollar per hit is a total waste of time when the cheapest upgrade costs $110. By the time you've hit 110 cars, you've upgraded so much that the cheapest is now over a thousand. So the hit bonus will never let you buy anything new.

There's so much to like about this game. It loads super-fast, gameplay is fast and responsive even on my 4yo laptop, there's a good variety of tracks, the music can be turned off while keeping the sound, and the draft/boost system is really well designed. But, overall, it just doesn't work. Once you've upgraded your car a decent amount, winning every race with a lap or two to spare is a cinch. But, at the same time, the object-collecting tracks get harder and harder as as you upgrade because your car goes faster but doesn't handle any better. What are the brakes for? Make the races more challenging and the object collectors easier (or lose them altogether) and this will be a really great game.
