Race car fans and racing game gurus: get your thumbs ready to roll. Yuke's Media Creations' new racing title, "D1 Grand Prix," is a game that's designed for you — and pretty much only you.

What makes this professional racing simulation different from the other racing sims on the market is the fact that it's a "drift racing" game. Drifting is a specialized style of speeding around the track that originated in Japan and has recently grown into something of a phenomenon in the United States. For a cinematic take on the cars and the culture, check out "The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift."
