Eight champions, one to a circuit, and each one rides like somebody. Beat a champion on his own road and his machine is yours. Pace is what he will do down a straight, corners is how late he stays on the gas, defends is how hard he shuts a door, and mistakes is how often he gives you one.

Tap any control, then press the key you want. Two keys per action — a primary and a spare.

The pads track each finger separately, so steering and throttle work at the same time. On a keyboard they stay hidden unless you switch them on.

Every difficulty keeps its own career \u2014 its own won circuits, its own parts, its own money. Move up a rung and you start that one from nothing while the one below stays exactly where you left it. Machines you have won are yours on all of them. Nothing here touches your controls.

The game keeps itself in this browser, which is fine until you clear your history, or want to carry a career from the laptop to the tablet. Write it to a file and it is yours \u2014 no account, nothing sent anywhere, and no way for anyone else to take it off you.

Paint, stripes, livery and the plate are free, and they stay free — on every machine you own. Five machines come free. The rest of the field, and all parts, are bought with cash banked from runs — ten percent of every final score, win or lose.

These live on this machine only. A board everyone shares needs a server behind it — the same wall Dualfence hit on static hosting. When peteygonemadarts.com is running an API, this hooks straight into it.
