Codemasters reveals further details of Race Driver: Create & Race custom circuit construction kit. Developed exclusively for the Nintendo DS, Race Driver: Create & Race is an innovative addition to the series that gives players creative freedom by introducing an advanced, but easy-to-use, track designer. Players can rev their engines on recognizable world class circuits and then, using the Nintendo DS stylus, design unique race tracks from scratch with as many devious touches as desired. Construct anything from simple but intense speed ovals, to tracks filled with hair-pins and chicanes designed to intimidate the most experienced drivers.

Pick any of the set pieces, including pit stops, dips, bridges, run-offs or even the scenery and then place them on the grid to create tracks worthy of the legendary race cars featured. Alternatively, players can choose to create their tracks using the unique free draw tool. Simply draw the track you want on the grid and the tool will automatically lay down the correct corresponding set pieces, rotating them where necessary. There's even a handy eraser for those times when creativity is given too long a lead.

To examine their handy-work, players can choose to take a dynamic 3D fly-through tour of the circuit or take out one of the cars on a test drive of the track. Those who want to get the ultimate edge on their friends can also race against the AI on their newly constructed circuit. Once players have mastered their own circuits, it's time to bring in up to three friends and race against each other for real over single Game Card sharing or four player Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.
