Game description: In the Cars Race-O-Rama video game, players get to race against new characters through action-packed tracks to win the Race-O-Rama trophy as their own personalized Lightning McQueen. Join Lightning McQueen in Radiator Springs as he prepares his academy of student racers for the Race-O-Rama competition. Lightning finds out that Chick Hicks has his own set of academy student racers who don't always compete fairly. These student racers are preparing to race in the same competitions in order to propel Chick Hick's academy to the #1 spot. The races take place at various tracks from the beaches, into the cities and off to the Baja desert. Along the way, racers are upgrading their abilities and customizing their look. The finale consists of a fully modified, ultimate Lightning McQueen racing against a fully modified Chick Hicks for the Race-O-Rama trophy. Let the race begin!

These Cars racing games are usually inoffensive but playable. Good for zoning out. The other games seem to be better, though. Playable at my settings with some minor hiccups. Had very minor issues where distant skybox textures would occasionally disappear during a regular Arcade Mode race. Brief, one-frame vertex explosions happen once or twice per lap in the Monster Truck mode. Also rarely had random, inexplicable bouts of slowdown for no reason. Otherwise, seems to look and play like it should. OpenGL Hardware Renderer, 2x native, no GSdx hacks, overall speedhacks set to "Balanced." DuderComputer
