Night City Racing
There are many kinds of street racing but arguably the most exciting kind happens at night when the street is lit up by all the neon cars like in Night City Racing. It's unknown whether the car came first or the drivers bought the cars specifically to race them. Well, it's quite clear that the cars you can drive are sporty and fast, but also quite expensive so you'll want to maintain your investment as much as possible. Still, the racers who take the most risks are the ones who are most likely to take first place. Just do your best to look cool while you do it.
About Night City Racing
The nightlife is full of fun, dancing, and dangerous activities like street racing so it's a good thing we have games to turn to for such an experience. This game is a tame representation of what actual street racing can be like. You have large and clearly defined tracks meaning you don't have to constantly be weaving through narrow streets and avoiding city obstacles like lampposts and other drivers. However, this makes it more like a traditional racing game which means that there's a lot of room to improve your driving skills. Do that and you'll find yourself dominating everything that the game throws at you.
