Fastlane Street Racing: Another Lite Success Story

After the tremendous success of iShoot, iPhone App developers seem to have been working round-the-clock in providing Lite versions of their games in hopes to reproduce some of Ethan Nicholas' success.
Fastlane Street Racing developers Atod AB seems to be another major Lite success story with the release of their Fastlane Street Racing Lite [App Store] game just one week ago. The Lite version of the game contains only one car, but that's apparently enough.
The Lite version hit the Top 100 Free games 4 days ago and quickly rocketed up to the #1 spot. The full $4.99 version followed just one day later and has risen from off the Top 100 Paid chart to #86, #45, and now #21 at the time of this writing.
We couldn't be happier for the developers who are regular participants in our forums. We reviewed the game and found it to be the "best looking, best playing racing game" in the App Store at the time. We even included it in our Top 2008 games list. Here's your chance to try it.

Atod AB deserves the recognition. FSR is the best true racer game in the iTunes store.
Slow news day?
But seriously, I didn't try the game until the lite version came out and it had me sold. It looks amazing and it's a lot of fun. So I'm not really surprised that it's shooting up since it really is one of the best games in the app store.
Bounce On is also making it's way up to the top. The lite version is #2 on the free downloads and the full game just broke into the Top 50
i really liked the lite version. it reminded me of Ridge Racer for the PSP. Same type of graphics it seems. I just wish I had more money to spend and I would buy this game.
If they add online multiplayer. I would buy it in a second
Fastlane deserve its success – it really is the best racer on the device
Agreed, nanokiwi; and I have them all. The lack of popularity of Fastlane Street Racing compared to other titles has always puzzled me, I'm pleased it's now being noticed.
Didn't play it before because reviews pointed out the controls were wacky. Now I know better. Fastlane is indeed by far the best racer on the iPhone.
Well done and well deserved! Great game.
Fastlane is just amazing, and the developers cared enough to give us that major easy mode update back in December
by far the best iPhone racing game. I bought it awhile ago after being skeptical for awhile and wow, its damn good.
happy my brithday
