My grandson (6) loves this, I bought it in self-defense of the rental fees, but it is an easy to play and enjoyable game. It's drawback for me is that it doesn't particularly like the PS3. You have to make sure that PS/PS2 Upscaling is set to normal & PS/PS2 Smoothing is off. I have had to do this with some other games too. If the setting doesn't work you end up hung on some screen before the game starts.

This is a fun game, you can be set up with a click of a button in Rookie or you can go to Pro & actually set the car up yourself. Pro is not easy, as it shouldn't be, but learn what changes to make on different track conditions & you will eventually beat Big John himself! there are so many different set ups that you can use. A Motor head will understand much more then the average guy. I am waiting for a NHRA game for PS3, after playing this game, there is no doubt that I will buy the next generation! It is not easy, but then again, it is not Overly-Too hard. It is fun. If you love drag racing then this is the game!
