About

Drag Race Sim

Read full description

Drag Race Sim puts you in the rhythm of real drag racing: burnout, pre-stage, bump in, watch the tree, hit your shift points, and run the stripe. Build your garage from a basic starter car into a serious drag racing machine. Tune gearing, tires, power, suspension, and launch setup, then decide how hard to push based on track prep and weather. Every pass gives you a timeslip. Take on a six-chapter career with 36 headline meets, from local race weekends to a national title campaign. Earn licenses, qualify for bigger fields, build sponsor and crew support, and face persistent rivals as the stakes rise. Features: - Real bracket racing flow with dial-ins, reaction time, breakout rules, and win-margin logic - Independent BRAKE and GAS controls for automatic footbrake staging - Test passes, qualifying, eliminations, and bracket or heads-up championship routes - A 36-meet career, plus the eight-event short championship - Sponsors, crew, team cars, optional development challenges, and recovery events - Garage progression with parts, dyno feedback, tuning, and car setup choices - Track conditions and weather that matter from pass to pass - Run logs and timeslips for reviewing every pass - Portrait and landscape racing with clear instruments and dedicated launch controls This is a racing strategy game as much as a reflex game. The fastest car does not always win. The driver who reads the track, stages clean, cuts a light, and runs the number is the one who survives. OPTIONAL REWARDED ADS Choose to watch an ad for extra in-game cash or one real second attempt after a race loss, including championship races. A retry uses the same opponent and conditions with no additional entry fee; its result replaces the first attempt, and winnings are awarded once. One rewarded retry per event. Ads are optional, require an internet connection and availability, and never appear automatically during a race. No banners or app-open ads.
