The game features twenty licensed cars, belonging to such renowned brands as Toyota, Honda, Subaru or Mitsubishi. Each car can be modified to a large extent – both in terms of the visuals (bumpers, spoilers, etc.) and the performance (nitrous injection kit or modified transmission). The game features car parts delivered by real-existing brands, such as AEM, Audiobahn, Bilstein, Dazz Motorsport, DC Sports, Eibach, Enkei, GReddy Performance Products, HKS, Holley, Injen, Jackson Racing, MOMO, Neuspeed, Nitrous Express, O.Z, PIAA, Skunk2 Racing, Sparco, StreetGlow or Turbonetics.

Building a speed demon requires an adequate amount of money. The in-game cash can be obtained by winning racing events (about a hundred variants of them in total). The game features multiplayer modes as well (including online).

Special effects were made by a serious professionals, by no means inferior to Hollywood-based designers. The soundtrack comprises over a dozen energetic songs which complement the atmosphere of the game.
