Haven’t found any drag racing games where you can buy a junker from the newspaper and build it into the ride of your life.
Not to mention the fun of driving and I only played the free version, be nice to know where to find the actual download and buy option…

43211 Hot Rod ASD: A Divine Summary, Jul 02, 2008

by Divine Miller (Calgary,AB,CAN)

Well, to be perfectly honest, i hated drag racing. That just made the game that much more appealing to me. When i first saw this game (bare with me, it gets complicated, lol) from my moms boyfriends brother, who owned the full version, i found it quite appealing. He let me play and i ended up getting the hang of it really quickly because of the backround of gamers in my family history. You buy a car, and you have to repair the overly-used parts from the store. You make bets with people for money, and they sometimes even put in stuff, like rims or exhaust kits, as collateral. You can mod out your car with paint jobs, and as you make more money, you can buy better parts and cars. This game was very well thought out and is very fun. It’s very realistic right up to the point that YOU have to change the gears while racing(timing is everything, focus on that) which makes it that much more appealing. I give it 4.5 on 5 because the controls are tricky & is not appealing to every party. Its fun

54321 Man this games is awesome., Jun 03, 2008

by Jared K. Taylor (Jackson, MS USA)

Man I have to give it to you. This the best game I have ever played and I played a lot. The reason why I like the games is the way the cars sound, run, the time you guys put in on 3d, I have not went to far in cause I had the little free version of it but it was worth the time. To me the only improvement that this game needs is to be more real life racing. What I mean by that is that the cars can lift up, car damage can show, a better variety of cars, more show off parts, that’s about it. Also I think this games is for everybody to enjoy it is worth the money to get the full version (even though I can’t buy it) but all I just love playing this games and I want you to know that no matter what others think about it I still say that this game absolutely owns the five star rating. Thanks for taking your time and reading my review.
