The Ihra drag racing game (P2)if you know about Drag racing cars and how select the right engine, tranmisson and tires this game is good for ya.It will take a long time to come up with the right
combination to get any car to go faster then your opponet car from first playing the game. I think they sould have put some
type specification for an example.

If you love drag racing, this game is more fun than anything I have ever seen. Can spend hours at a time on it. The programming does have a few glitches: in bracket racing while running a single event or an entire season, you can't change the dial-in time between runs (supposed to be able to, but it doesn't work). Also, as mentioned in other reviews, the instruction manual is sorely lacking. Setting up events or seasons can be cumbersome, but the smart person can find a way around that (save the setup once you have it). One other thing I would change is to have an option to eliminate the 2 practice rounds before every event, since they take much longer than the actual races.
However, in spite of the glitches (what can you expect ...?), once you are set up to race, it is FUN. Despite what some reviewers have said, it IS available to 2 players. My brother and I have spent literally hours and hours racing. What I really like about it is that you don't have to be a nimble-fingered, button-tapper to play it. A few logical sequences of buttons to push, and you are on your way. I don't know about the complaints about the graphics, not being a bigtime video gamer, but they are adequate for me.
In summary, this is one of the least costly and most entertaining games I have ever played.

This game is great for those who love drag racing, especially the nostalgia cars like the 68 Nova. However the pro style cars in top fuel and funny car are hard to tune to get them down the track. So far my first motor is a 6000 Hp beast that powers my Nova in to the very low 6's (6.236) at 245 MPH.
