    Cool. Probably won't go on my iDevice until I play through some things to clear up space, but thanks for posting!

    BTW, I wouldn't be surprised to see this go free in a couple of hours today. It's already showing up in AppZapp as free.

    it's probably not as good as asphalt 6, isn't it?

    Well the Shift games are technically supposed to be more sim-like than arcade. Although when I played the first Shift on the iOS, it definately isn't as sim-like compared to the console counterparts.

    Still, I would guess that Asphalt 6 is more of an arcade racer compared to this.

    Is this even worth downloading for? I read some pretty mediocre reviews on this.

    Not really sure myself. But will download for a rainy day and the off chance that I have space to play it.

    Doubt it's anywhere near Real Racing 2. But I generally suck at sim racers so the fact that this isn't quite as sim as RR, it appeals to me a bit more. Aside from the RR series, I really don't think there's any racing game on the iOS that's completely awesome. I actually find Sonic Racing as my favorite even though it's just a cart racer.

    Worth a try for free. It's just the space that's always the issue for me.

    Well, there really is a free app that seems to be ahead of the game. I almost always see price changes prior to when they actually happen (anywhere from 2-4 hours). And this showed up around the same time as the OP. That's why I said it'd probably be a couple of hours later today (as opposed to tomorrow).

    Not sure where they pull their info, but don't think it's ever let me down. (And no, I don't know the devs so this isn't a shameless plug).

    EDIT: For some reason, I've been told not to use the name of said app so I've removed it. Not sure why. Maybe the dev of it was banned?

    AppZapp does seem alot faster then other similar apps. And the interface+functions > other apps (at least on iPad).

    Well, seven hours after seeing this was going free, the app-that-shall-not-be-named seems a bit off. Looks like this might not be free until tomorrow at this rate after all.

    Heh.. It's another round of the waiting game. I bet that when it goes free it's also going to be "still being modified" for a couple hours to spice things up, too :)
