This game is a simulation of car rallying. It simulates both timed and checkpoint rally conditions. There is a card draft at the beginning of the game where select your car's characteristics from those that are still available. This game is pure skill. Routes must be chosen carefully to arrive at the checkpoints on time. Not to early, not too late, as both are penalized. Many factors make this a difficult game to master as every game plays out differently. - BoardGameGeek
