Reviews are pretty positive and it certainly looks like alot of fun
building your own tracks.

Things the reviews lack are car handling and physics. Granted these are
not suppose to be the highlight of the game but it is an important fun
factor to a certain degree.

So who's got it and wants to share some driving and overall game feedback?

I downloaded the demo. The car that they give you in the demo is very
bouncy. There are jumps in the game and landing is unpredictable. Also
turns can easily tip the car sideways on two wheels or worse.
Otherwize it's a nifty update to Broderbund's old DOS game "Stunts."
