Under rating threshold (show) Hmm, the weather forecast says "wet" Maybe I should go with the wet tires.

Under rating threshold (show) "Win with the wrong tyres" yep, will do. On the serious side, would be helpful to see start/finish line on track image if you aren't going to add a mini map during race.

Under rating threshold (show) Is it bad that I automatically assumed I'd need wet weather tires to drive in great Britain?

Under rating threshold (show) The most difficult track is Turkey. Here's the best way to get 1st. Make sure you're upgraded to max, obviously. Then change your cars setup to 90% Engine, 65% Handling and 86% Boost. The only difficult part is the super sharp right. It helps to know when it's coming up. It's the 3rd corner. So as soon as you start, count the corners. There's 2 right's and the next corner is the tough one. Don't use any boost before this. Make sure to be as far right on the road as you can. Slow down a decent amount and just hug the right side of the track as much as you can. Just before you come all the way out of the corner, hit your boost and get past as many racers as possible. After that it's just timing your boosts well. Great game.

Under rating threshold (show) Something should happen either when you get all 1st and/or when you get all awards. I had all 1st places and my only award left was to get 50k. I raced some pointless races to get there, and for what? That aside, great game, I had lots of fun!

Under rating threshold (show) Stellar graphics for a simple racing game, but a minimap would've been much appreciated. The maps we do see don't even mark the starting point.

Under rating threshold (show) I must say you should learn turbonuke, a minimap has been suggested on nearly all the games you are part of like this. would you not have realised that by now??? dont get me wrong this game and the others are good but a minimap should be in all the newer ones by now

Under rating threshold (show) Nevermind, finally got it. I had to keep saving Boost to get around that curve easier. even then, it's very difficult! People in Turkey really know how to drive, I guess!

Under rating threshold (show) The prize money curve is a bit soft - 1st place seems to get only 10-20% more money than 32nd place. This may be practical to help beginners learn and adjust, but by the second and third divisions the 1st to 32nd curve should really be at least 100-500%.

Under rating threshold (show) I was finding it too easy, so I skipped a level, and completed race 7 without doing 6. Three high-speed crashes later....I think I;ll do it the way you intended me too. :)

Under rating threshold (show) This game has another problem in addition to the game automatically steering you around most curves and no minimap: once I reached the class 3 races I could no longer use WASD to steer, something I could do in the lower race classes.

Under rating threshold (show) Bumping other cars (or even smashing straight into them)hardly matters, no drafting, apexes are irrelevant...There really isn't much to this one outside of buying upgrades, flooring it, and staying on the track. It looks good and runs smooth, but that's about it.

Under rating threshold (show) It's solid. 4/5. It is a little too player friendly/exploitable, but the customization of the car can set up your own personal challenges, I suppose. It's difficult to walk the line between being frustratingly, unrealistically cruel and a little too easy. Of the two, I prefer the route this one took. Its fun to play and entertaining, don't get me wrong, but it is more of a reaction time "press right or left and win!" type of thing than a deliberate racing game. Then again, I dont like a lot of racing games and this one is fairly fun, partly because of that. Cheers!

Under rating threshold (show) Odd how during a turn you automatically turn without doing anything. Makes me feel like the steering mechanics are broken and ruins the game for me. Turning during a hard turn isn't like turning at all... it feels much more like strafing which is odd for a car to do.

Under rating threshold (show) This game is just as bad as the first one - meaning, you didn't fix anything that made the first one bad. Opponent cars never waver in speed, so this game is more of time trials than racing. Then there's the whole crashing instantly = 16 places back, regardless of if you are in first place and a mile ahead. And lastly, how can the opponent cars whip those turns so much better than you? No skidding, no speed reduction, and even at max you have to struggle not to crash? Top it off with lacking the basic racing game mechanics like an "Acceleration" category and a Minimap, and you have a terrible tribute to the racing genre. 2/5, at best.

Developer response from turboNuke

1. It's a game. 2. It's one of the most popular Flash games, with over 110 million plays. We couldn't change the basic winning formula very much, but I'm sorry you don't like it.

Under rating threshold (show) I thought this was the hardest racing game I'd ever played, until I found that if you turn 'engine' and 'handing' up to 100, disregarding boost, it becomes much, much easier. It's ok as a game, but I agree with Lloyd Majere.
