    Wow! This has to be the best racing game on the DS, it might even be better than mario kart! The editor is loads of fun and really gives the game legs, you'll not get bored of this for a long time!

    Pros: Very fast paced and great depth. The multiplayer online is hilarious and fun. Highly addicive when playing with a human element. Cons: Multiplayer should show who's online and option to join playes...then again...it's probably too much for the DS to handle. So, pple, if you love racing games, buy this and meet me online for some serious racing!

    This game is great. The track editor is top-notch, and the touch makes it even better. The races are realistic, and my only two complaints are: 1. It is really really easy to crash if u r not careful. 2. I have to share this with my friends on the bus so I only get to play every third race.

    This is a fast, slick and fun racing game, a real surprise on the DS I have to say.

Its got loads of content and unlockables, so single players will be kept busy for a good while trying to complete everything. Once you've done that you can design and race around your own tracks, which is awesome, and then there's the all important multiplayer over Nintendo Wi-Fi, where you can race against friends, rivals or random people. There are a few rough edges and controls are sometimes a bit flaky (or maybe it's just that I'm a bad driver!). It's not a realistic racing sim, the cars do slide all over the place, more like the space racers in FX Zero than the super sports cars of Pro Gotham et al. Graphics are good for the DS and everything that needs to work, works pretty well. If you like racers you'll get a whole lot of fun out of this.… Expand

    With tons of modes and options initially available and more goodies to unlock as you win races, you'll be pushing the pedal to the medal for a long time to come. [Sep 2007, p.87]

    This surpasses expectations. It looks great, has fantastic online features and the course editor is brilliant. If only the cars felt a little more like cars. [Oct 2007, p.90]

    Not exactly the kind of thing you'd expect to see on the DS, and certainly not in as slick and professional a package as this. Well worth a go if you're into your racing sims. [Nov 2007, p.62]
