quailty!
This is a high quality game. By that I mean it's stable, has good graphics, a nice size collection of cars & tracks and a reasonable selection of game modes. I personally didn't enjoy the rag doll based game modes where you have to throw the driver a certain distance/direction. Felt a bit like a tech demo to me, to show off their physics engine - which by the way is very impressive! The whole car seems deformable, and the motion, as you steer, is very fluid. The car (and driver) feel very much a part of the environment. I completed the career mode, but it requires persistence. The game starts off quite easy, but all of a sudden gets very difficult and you find yourself having to drive the tracks perfectly to win. To win, the game doesn't really reward the act of smashing into other cars. It's better to just clip them to spin them off or veer them into a tree/building; that way you don't loose your momentum. Flatout 2 is really just an extension of Flatout 1. I can recommend them both. To conclude; if you like muscle cars, arcade-style driving games, drifting around dirt tracks and a challenge, then this game is for you. If you like 2 or more of those things then you should still give it a try.

Best action racing fame from bugbear
This is best action racing game from Bugbear. It is pleasure control the car if know how to drive it. It is balance between arcade racing and simulation. I really enjoy it. The simulation is not only for your car but also for all items surrounding track. If you hit one of that item, you will feel how your car slow down rapidly. But when you know how to damage it properly you can get benefit like get nitro. For example hit a construction from side of your car instead of front, and when construction fall you get nitro. AI is balanced and compared to other Bugbear titles like Flatou 2 or Wreckfest they are more clean and mainly they don't cheat. If they are, it is balanced. That means once you master your car, and how to get corners etc. you can beat them easily. and you can play with AI and send their drivers out from front window. I just warn that if you are new, it can be hard, but once you get it, it will be pleasure. The tracks are very well designed, and I like them all. On tracks there are shortcuts, some are "hidden", unfortunately not every shortcut is shortcuts, I describe it later. The game had more ambition as racing game, you discover it from "behind scenes" video once you finish a career. Who knows what developers wanted to create originally. Also each tracks have depth and looks like you can go everywhere. And yes, you can, and you can explore whole track level, and you can discover some interesting shortcutsbut when you go there, you got warning that you are out of race track and you have to go back. It look like tracks was designed for more content purporses as racing. The downside is, once you finish a career, there is nothing to do. You cannot change laps or number of opponents for each race track. Also once you bought a car and you want change it, you have to sell the current. That means you will allways have only one car in garage. This is far more finished game opposed to Wreckfest and Flatout 2 which has horrible car control.

There's A Reason They Gave It Away
Wow just wow one of the worst PC ports and games I've ever played. I can see why GOG gave this game away all them years ago. I tried to enjoy it, but the terrible UI and lack of controller support on top of the bad driving mechanics and lack of any real content/depth. Left me just wanting to go back to real good racing games like Mario Kart Wii, Daytona USA, Moto Racer, and more. I can see the potential and I'm sure the sequels are far better. But for the first game it's nothing special and not even worth getting for free if GOG ever decides to give it away again. But hey if you enjoy it, you enjoy it.
