The Drag Racing Challenge

The Drag Racing Challenge is a realistic arcade racing game with challenging missions and 12 cars to unlock. Beat your opponents to the finish line by accelerating and shifting gears with perfect timing.

How to play The Drag Racing Challenge?

Race your opponents to the finish in this drag racing game. You can stay ahead of your opponents by using nitro boosts and changing gears at the right moment. Precise gear shifting makes all the difference in this realistic game.

Switch gears too early and your engine will have to work harder and you’ll struggle to speed up. If you switch gears too late, the enige will rev higher than needed and burn too much fuel.

Shift gears when the dial reaches the yellow or green zone for optimal efficiency.

In the garage

Between drag races, you can head to the garage to upgrade your car’s engine, handling, wheels, brakes, and more.

You can also customize the appearance of your car with spray paint, different wheels and guards, or a  complete vinyl wrap.

Win races to unlock blueprints for different sports cars. You can view and buy the different car models using the arrows in the garage’s main menu.
