Synopsis

A neat drift racing game, in the style of Initial D, that lets you choose from 15 cars and 5 courses. You can race against up to 5 cars in arcade mode and there is also a story, time trial and training mode (where you can practice on difficult parts of the courses).

The graphics and sound are passable but unremarkable (you can listen to all 12 Redbook tracks on your stereo) and the handling is a little difficult to understand at first because it feels a bit stiff with a digital pad. I recommend using the Negcon, which helps a lot. An obscure racing wheel, the "Cockpit Wheel" (SLHP-00024), is also supported. Sadly no multiplayer option, but overall I'd say it's a nice little racing game, even if it's not quite up to par with the big ones (Side by Side Special, Touge MAX G).
