    Great game.
    It's graphic, music, volume, level design, difficulty and price, everything is well-balanced.
    Every car in the game have their own feature.
    I wish there will be added iCloud support and quick(+endlees) race and color customizing.
    AND more cars and stages!

    Now I'm driving for retro mode, my game progress is 96% now. But I think make it to 100% is really hard to me. lol

    Hey Derprozess! The condition for a Pro Stamp is collecting all blue tokens in the track, and get 1st place. When you get back to a race you already won, all tokens will be there waiting for you to catch them and win the race :)

    It's pretty hard, but it doesn't have to do with beating your best time. Gold trophy and all blue tokens, that's all. See it as a long-term late game that you can beat a little bit at a time.

    About scoring, you only get more permanent score (something other than "+0") if your total score in that race beats your previous one. That is, Position Prize + Collected Tokens + Remaining Fuel. That doesn't depend on your time, and having a Pro Stamp or not.

    If your answer was not sarcastic - Yeah it's the only way I can increase %... It'll take some time until reaching 100%...

    Just unlocked the Delorean, now time to get those pro stamps! What a feeling of accomplishment though getting all golds!

    I find the 'hit box' on the right turn button to be too small. It should extend to the middle of the screen. I keep missing it. Ideally, the whole UI would be customizable, but this is the only thing I find to be a problem.

    All the cars are situational and are suited to different styles of driving. On a track with long straights you will do well with a car that has high speed but low handling/acceleration. On a track with lots of sharp turns you need high acceleration and good steering. Also, many of the later cars are much better.

    Agreed, that's my only gripe with the touch controls. I wish the hit boxes for the turn buttons were both larger and and farther apart, or maybe just configurable to suit everyone. I frequently think I'm hitting the right turn button but nothing happens because my thumb is a little too far to the right. I also wish the nitro button was a little farther above the turn buttons, because I hit it too often accidentally.

    That said, most of the time I've been playing it at home on my iPad with a Mad Catz CTRLi controller, and the controls are perfect. My only slight gripe with the controller support is that it only works for driving, and you still use touch controls for everything else. I'm fine with using touch to navigate menus, but I'd at least like the pause button to work for pausing a race.

    Overall this is a fantastic racer. Definitely one of the most fun iOS racers.

    Personally I actually prefer it this way, where the different vehicles are just different rather than hierarchically better. It makes it so the number of vehicles you have to choose from gets bigger the longer you play. In games where each car is better than the previous one, usually only the latest few cars you've gotten are fast enough to be competitive, and the rest of the cars that you got earlier in the game might as well not exist any more.

    I agree, though I switched to tilt and never looked back.

    I have been crusing (bad pun intended) and thought I was good but man does the difficulty ramp up at Greece. I gold trophyed every race in the previous four areas but Greece is killing me.

    And I'm loving it.

    I am not saying big Asphalt style jumps, but just a little tiny bit like in Vroom (F1 on Megadrive) where there is a little off hills at high speed. Hugging the ground "bugs" me just like it did with Outrun when released in the arcade. Appreciate though why folks would think this could mess with the current game.

    The game is great none the less, but this touch would add butter to an already tasty biscuit/scone. This is my last post about it since no value in annoying folks with repetition about it.

    Just an opinion :)

    If ur not offended by F2P and "pay to win" (aka IAP), GT Racing 2 and Real Racing 3 are both more like a traditional sim racing experience ala console. Both offended me with the timers and multiple currencies, but to each his own ;)

    Nearly there, but I've been treating myself to just doing a couple of races a day during the week to make the game last longer. Got pro on everything so far but I've seen multiple people mention that place so we will see how that goes!

    Also as for the cars I have tried a few of them for different situations but my main car so far seems to work for pro on corner maps and straights. But maybe I'm just not at the really hard stuff yet but I am closing in on the last zones.

    Got Pro on Reykjavik 03, but it is a poorly designed track in almost every way. It tarnishes the overall experience of the game and is the kind of thing that usually gets me to stop playing a game.
