Race through six tracks that showcase three terrain themes as you compete against AI racers!

Each track is set in one of three different terrains digitally recreated within a packed stadium, filled with eager spectators ready to see who will win the race. Start your race through the iridescent roads of “Disc Drive” as you boost through to victory. Twist and turn through the hilly dunes of a sandy “Android Arena” wasteland. Fly through the neon-lit cyberscape of “Circuit City” as you see a vibrant city inside of a computer.

You can even choose what colors to make your kart and driver. There are over a hundred possible kart combinations, so discover your unique race champion.
