Street Racing Stars

Street racing is a common theme in the gaming industry. Players always seek the thrill of driving fast cars on city streets. Street Racing Starts is an arcade driving game that allows you to race multiple vehicles, buy upgrades and tune your car.

Cars, illegal street races and hot girls

The story behind the game is straightforward; you are an illegal racer who wants to make it big on the streets. You must race multiple opponents on demanding tracks and earn cash. Tuning your car and upgrading visuals is the way you will stand out in the crowd.
The gameplay is below average for this type of game. You can control the car via direction keys with a button for nitrous boost. However, you do not have a handbrake key, the gear shifting is automatic regardless of your choice and you cannot change the view when racing.

Neons, rims, paint jobs, decals and body kits

You have a small selection of cars at your disposal which you can buy whenever you have the money. The higher end cars are a more powerful version of the starting cars. You can upgrade the visuals and the performance of your vehicle by purchasing new parts. There are lots of elements that ensure your vehicle will be as unique as the driver. However, you cannot tweak how each item influences your overall performance.
The graphics department is pretty well designed. The game can run in high resolution, and you can tweak multiple settings to improve performance if you have a lower end computer. The cars are drawn accurately, and the various body kits or paints jobs are applied correctly.

A street racing game with good and bad points

The difficulty curve is smooth, allowing you to get accustomed to the controls and the skills of opponent drivers. However, off the starting line, there is a lot of wheel spin, making it hard to control your vehicle. The other racers do not have a problem with ramming into you and hitting the light posts will stop you dead in your tracks. The level of realism is not that high to impress.
In conclusion, Street Racing Stars is a decent game with plenty of features and customizing options. However, the levels of control and realism are a bit too low to make this game a must-have for racing enthusiasts. Nonetheless, it is free to play, and you can enjoy hours of quality racing.
