About This Game

Build it. Tune it. Prove it on the strip.

Dragstrip Online is a side-view pixel art drag racer with a real physics simulation under the hood. Horsepower alone doesn't win here: traction, weight transfer, tyre temperature, clutch and turbo spool all matter, and every part you bolt on has a trade-off.

1600+ cars, 1600+ engines, 6000+ parts

• Cars from the 60s to today, inspired by real models with real engines and specs.
  
• Engine swaps, turbos and superchargers, nitrous, ECU, gearboxes, suspension, tyres, wheels and aero.
  
• Body kits, paint finishes, wheels and sponsor decals you can see on the car.

See every change on the dyno

Put the car on the dyno and watch the power, torque and boost curves change with every part. Tune boost, gearing and launch, then check the timeslip: reaction time, 60 ft, 330 ft, 1/8 and 1/4 mile.

Every second of the race is yours

• Burnout to bring the tyres into their temperature window.
  
• Stage, react to the Christmas tree, launch and shift by hand.
  
• Feather the throttle, fire the nitrous, ride the wheelie.
  
• Street starts, roll races and bracket racing with a dial-in, where consistency beats power.

Build from a bare frame

Buy a bare frame (roadster, coupe, pro-mod or dragster) in steel, chromoly, aluminium or carbon and build your own car stage by stage: engine, drivetrain, a replica body of any car in the catalog, wheels, wiring and gauges. Every stage costs money and takes a few races.

Highway battles and police

Three lanes, endless traffic and a rolling start: lead by two car lengths for ten seconds to win. Street racing raises your heat, and the police answer with patrols, interceptors, roadblocks, spike strips and a helicopter. Hit the traffic too hard and the car is a write-off.

Career

• Start with a one-car shed and a cheap car, grow into a race team workshop.
  
• Race offers, tournaments, daily challenges and licences from street to pro.
  
• Sponsors pay to put their logo on your car.
  
• Run a tuner workshop: customers bring their cars, a budget and a target time.
  
• Buy new cars from the dealer or hunt for bargains on the used car market.

Race online

• 1v1 races with matchmaking by class, offers and 4-player tournaments.
  
• Weekly leaderboards for every location, verified by the server, with ghosts you can race.
  
• Fair competition: the same physics for everyone and no pay-to-win.

Eleven locations

A prepped drag strip, city streets at night, a harbour, the desert, a frozen lake, the coast, a storm, the countryside, sand drags on the dunes, a mud run in the forest and the highway. Each has its own weather and surface: air temperature and pressure, track temperature and grip, rain, ice, sand or mud, with studded, off-road and paddle tyres to match.

Made by one person

Dragstrip Online is made by a solo developer from Poland, the creator of Spacefighter: The Bullet Hell. Join the Discord to follow development and help shape the game.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Music and radio tracks were generated with AI (Suno), then selected and edited by the developer. Car body sprites start from AI-generated side-view reference images, which are converted to the game's pixel grid and finished by hand. No content is generated by AI while the game is running.
