Solid little game which starts a bit too slowly for its own good - the first couple of levels of the campaign get kind of bogged down by choosing only a small number of tracks and game type variations, but once you get to the third and fourth levels it really opens up and starts to feel like a real smorgasbord of fun, messy racing.

The AI is so variable it's kind of incredible, it'll fight you doggedly right to the end, or sometimes it'll spin off and total its car in the first lap. Not entirely a positive, but when it's feeling like it it's very fun to race against.

Music-wise, the choices aren't great, and it only seems to have a handful of tracks, prompting me to just turn down the music volume almost entirely. There's plenty of other stuff to focus on.

The menu system is a mess, and it's missing some quality of life stuff which feels important, like the ability to buy an appropriate car for a race which has specific requirements directly, rather than having to back out - you can buy appropriate cars from the race menu if you own one already, which seems like an oversight.

Works okay with a wheel, but you might want to turn down the force feedback strength, and you'll want to set the wheel to 300º of rotation.
