SynopsisGrip the wheel and feel the engine roar. Pop the clutch, shift into gear, and smell your tires smoking as you speed away on the track. Asphalt crumbles under the power of your machine as you tear through tight curves and rip up the straightaways. You close in on a rival car and swiftly maneuver around it, just nosing past as the checkered flag flies.
