The physics are near perfect and it seems quite possible to smash round the course and not apply breaks. It's hard to believe that it's from the same company that made that funless "threaten a fish's life to encourage you to print" game.

So, now that they've done Micro Machines... bUt OnLiNe, how many years until I can expect Doom?

I think it's faster to drive the novice course backwards. My highest score was 2320 driving backwards.

Holloway, I was running Doom (as an embedded X client) in my browser years ago! So I guess the answer to your question is -2.

I have to enter their contest and fill out marketing forms to play?

Nope. You can just keep playing, no registration required and if you want even download the executable for your PC.
