Ready to go deeper? Craft your own custom game modes! Set your favorite configurations of powerups, race rules, lap counts and more, then save your rule set and play with up to 8 local players. Want a 10-lap Race with Bouncy Tires and Rocket Boost Powerups? You can do that. How about a Drift Attack with permanent Police Chase that you can play with 4 friends? No problemo. Maybe you want to test your racing skills with no powerups at all. That’s fine too. It’s your game, your rules.
