One of the best racers I've played but the difficulty is an obscene over-correction from 1. The moment I realized this shit was just skewed against your favor is when cpu opponents will outspeed you on straightaways regardless of car stats. The item balancing doesn't help either; very little way to protect yourself from attacks, and very little you can do to recover from last place.

I post this review knowing there's probably a sliver-sized S&ASRT fandom who could 'um actkually' me for this review but i don't give a shit lmao, if i want a hardcore racing experience I'll play the one without built-in RNG.
