Even more basic is the Drag Race where you select a car, and one for the computer and then try and get to the finish line first.

It's a delicate art and one that none of us ever mastered it completely. In fact, both Julian and I we're the two who played the most found Test Drive 5 to be a very difficult game to play, but not always in a frustrating way.
It just takes a long time to learn how to handle the cars properly. But don't get too cocky, once you get the hang of driving the car, you'll still have to master driving in the snow or rain, both of which present their own special problems like lack of vision and lack of traction respectively. Unfortunately, all of this solid play is ruined by the way the computer plays its game.
