That actually looks pretty fun. A twist on MarioKart. I'll be sure to try the demo out, but i'm very particular over games I buy since $60 seems a bit ridiculous for a game IMO.

eeenteresting... I did get a $50 giftcard to best buy recently... might be time to use it

this game looks bomb diggity. right now the only racing games i have are great, but old (midnight club and NFSU2), or great but very serious (GT4, which is also old lol)

this.. this might be perfect. might rent it first though

Ironically you ran right out there but hesitated on buying it or it was just there to advertise. Common be dah first.

I was playing the demo, its pretty cool. the few tools they have available to make a track, car, character are awesome.

I downloaded the demo a LONG time ago, however every time I attempt to play it something happens and someone else ends up playing. I've gotten as far as choosing a car and putting a rake on it.

still havent played it but if theres a free demo then i might have to do this very very soon

those cars look fantastic lalo. how free is the car editing? what constraints do you have to deal with? i'm starting to get ideas about driving the II sooner than i can afford to actually drive the II

arin,
the only true restraint are the kart models you start off with. there are a lot of them, but none of them, for the most part, will be exactly like a real car. the kart body i used for the death proof car is what i will be using for all my pony cars for example. but other than that, you have free reign to put whatever you want on the car. as you complete challenges in career mode you start unlocking new objects and whatnot to help mod your kart, driver, and tracks. with enough imagination and stickfortitudinous you can design anything on your car.
