Gameplay

Rather than a being a true simulation, CART Fury Championship Racing is an arcade racer,[2] with traits like spectacular crashes, spinouts, speed-draining slides, and tailgating. It includes road courses, street courses and oval tracks. Three skill levels (Easy, Medium, and Hard) allow players of all ability levels to compete on equal terms against the AI-controlled opponents.[2]
