Dinsun Expert Review

Our Expert Score

84/100

Street Kart Racing is not your typical 'Mario Kart' clone. It is a surprisingly hardcore karting simulator that demands precision and patience. The sense of speed is incredible—when your camera is just inches off the tarmac at 70mph, every bump feels significant. The physics engine is the star here; you genuinely have to worry about tire temperature, drafting, and finding the perfect racing line.

The real-time multiplayer is where the game truly lives. Racing against actual people means you have to defend your position and time your overtakes perfectly. The progression feels rewarding as you move from local cadet ranks up to professional international championships. It’s a steep learning curve, and the controls take some getting used to, but for racing enthusiasts, it’s one of the most authentic karting experiences available on any platform.

Great Game But Can Still Be Improved
Mon Dec 23 2019 SwampfoxSC

This is a great racing game if any type. The fact that it is kart game is even better. I am a third generation kart racer. My grandfather was part of the leading team. That karting started here in the States. I have raced at all levels. From a kid in clutch karts. All the way to road racing Rotax 256 twins. Even had a cr500 on a Swift chassis for a while. I won a SKUSA championship in 97. And I think I am seasoned enough to tell you. This game is authentic as it can get. But there can be improvements. Such running off track. This is very inconsistent between tracks. Some tracks you 100% traction with all four wheels off. Others you drop one wheel. And you are sucked out to the wall. Another issue is running out of fuel. There is zero coast factor. Not realistic for cliched kart. Direct drive more so though. I have stopped feet from finish line a few times. My final criticism is making it a bit easier. And more clear on what it takes to move up in class. I have been playing this for some time. And still don’t know how to advance to the next tier. I have stuck in two for awhile. Despite high finish positions. And winning one championship.

Strange in game methods and purchases

not sure how to fully explain but honestly i feel like this game is pretty plain after a couple days. not only do you pay for the game itself but you have to watch ads if you want and need extra aces which is completely dumb. after unlocking a kart of wearable outfit you still have to pay for it which is by far the weirdest implement in a game i have seen. not only does the more expensive things give you a WAY better boost then just wearing normal costumes having to race with really good racers while im bearly stuck on the first 2 karts and having to use the least grippy tires because i cannot afford more sets of slick grippy tires and having to stick to regular gas instead of prem gas cause i can’t afford it anymore. and now theirs a new pass that you have to pay 5 dollars a month if you want extra things???? i payed for the game and didn’t expect all of this and only have to upgrade your mechanics costs 100+ aces which is incredibly expensive and that now bearly at level 2. this game just fully revolves around money. if it was about skill id think everyone would get the same outfits that give no boosts besides looks. and i was expecting people to customize their own cars to their own liking at the beginning but even after almost 2+ weeks of playing i bearly can even upgrade my mechanic to lvl 3 which also includes having to change my break pressure and etc. THAT I CANT DO BECAUSE I DONT HAVE ENOUGH ACES.

Masterpiece

Someone in the Facebook community helped orient me to the game and I’m changing my review based on what I learned. I was under the impression that once your stamina ran out, you had to use aces to buy an energy drink before it would go back up again. Well it refills all the way within an hour or so and you can use aces if you want to keep grinding. So, I misunderstood the concept behind that and I apologize for my anger in the last review I did. I felt as if I got ripped off after paying $5. At the same time, there really wasn’t too much of a detailed explanation of the system for laymen like me. I think there should be work on that. There are also some glitches here and there. Overall, I think this is a masterpiece of a game and I appreciate the simple but in depth feel of it. Everyone that worked on this game did a great job and they built a healthy and competitive community. I’ll definitely keep playing and I’ll most likely wind up buying aces to contribute to the people behind this game.

REVIEWS LOOKED TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE
Mon May 04 2020 Anthony Haiti

absolutely not true what i read in reviews about it being as close as reality as possible and that lvl of skill needed. I looked up the top racer and his videos. BIGGEST DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ME WHO HAS RACED NOW 2 Mo and HIM, was just the go kart. HE is able to use grass like the track , where mine would stall and stop, Able to hit the breaks full on and take off again , And cut corners over grass, with hard breaking, be too fast in corner, drive on edge over grass w no problem etc etc etc SEAMS REVIEWS ARE MADE UP A LOT from what i see. Lot of potential but far from being what i hoped it was and what it can be by making necessary changes that force more skill and i know they have to make more $ but now its 80% geared towards upgrades and skill needed too low for my taste. I wouldnt mind upgrading my car and spending $ but i would have to see that the skill factor is still the main component. The best player should be able to smoke me w my kart if i used his but in reality i would easily win as he would have to drive like a grandpa or his cart would stall on grass or anytime he breaks too fast and would even loose control otherwise...That should not be possible. He should be able to smoke me even w slower kart due to his amazing skill and of course kart would matter amongst similar players but not a beginner and #1

Wish I could give more stars

Absolutely love this game!!! I have been trying to get into the actual karting, and it’s super expensive and time consuming this is a great alternative. Being able to compete with hundreds of other players is amazing. The driving feels very good and responsive, I started with touch controls but I have connected my Xbox controller and now my times have dropped a lot. Of corse there can always be areas for improvement but so far it’s a amazing game. I’m sure y’all already have tons of stuff that will be added as time goes on but If the developers see this my one suggestion would be to add some sort of a player account so I can take my profile across devices, I started on my phone and have progressed far and I wanted a bigger screen so I tried to play on my iPad but I had to start all over it would be nice to be able to take my profile across devices. Keep up the great work and Im excited to see what’s next!

Perfect Simulation Game
Wed Aug 11 2021 Vantage_AM

This is the best racing game that I have come across and I have played almost all of them. Kart Simulation is very similar to real life with turning and braking simultaneously, or getting on throttle early will punish you. Gives you the choice to customize your kart according to your racing style, oversteer or understeer, do you prefer more acceleration or more top speed. There many things to learn but the community is the best for this game and everybody helps you out whether it racing lines or setup advice. It does take hard work ,practice and developing your skill to get to the top but it rewards you in many ways. For people on a budget it is possible to get on the top. The game offers a tier and rival system as well to make sure you are racing people who are equal to your skill. It is a competitive game that feels like you are racing in a Karting League and feels like it is in irl.

I just want to say, this game is amazing. It’s everything I wanted it to be when I bought it. I like how the physics are very realistic, (the graphics are eh but that doesn’t matter to me) and I like how it doesn’t babysit you the whole game. You get to drive and feel the kart without any assists. Now it feels like every racing game has some sort of braking assist or steering assist, but this? Nope. I like how the weather on the track is real-time too. One thing you could add (although I don’t know if they have these in Europe) is the Briggs and Stratton 206 engine class since it’s all about momentum. The reason I gave it 4 stars though, is because of the energy system. I don’t mind the fact that you have to race to get rid of excess weight, but I wish I could race as long as I want without having to buy energy drinks with my precious aces. MY PRECIOUS ACES!! That is the only problem I have. I don’t mind the ads, since they are optional and I want to support the developers more. Plus, it’s extra aces! Keep making updates guys!

I have been playing this game daily since general release day 1. It is fantastic. Continuous improvements in the game, new tracks, new karts, and great events. Once you buy the game you never HAVE to buy any in-app purchases. Your progress will be just a tad slower, but your on track abilities are level with anyone that has purchased the in game currency (aces) - so it is NOT pay to play. The developers are kart racers too and are very interactive with the community seeking our input. And speaking of the community, it is a great bunch of folks that are helpful to those with questions and needing some help. This karting SIMULATOR is 2nd to NONE - and especially for an iOS game you can play anywhere as it's on your phone!
