Review: Unplayable - I actually got this as a free gift with an Easter Egg this year and I got more enjoyment from the egg! This reminds me of when you had F1 games back in the 8-bit consoles where each track looks like a motorway section. However at least the 8-bit consoles could actually move all the cars at the same time whereas this games graphics engine stutters to a halt when more than 4 cars as in sight. Nothing is licensed, nothing is recognisable - I could bearly steer the cars available and quite frankly I have played freeware games online that contain 1000 times more fun, enjoyment, lastability and playability than this (trackmania or miniracingonline anyone?). Avoid at all costs. Review: Good game - I would give this game five stars but it is let down by the fact that the game is unlicenced and therefore has no real team names and driver names. The cars handle well and the graphics run very smoothly. Overall, a very enjoyable game.
