Real Racing is a very high quality game that runs smoothly. One of the very best racing games in the app store. The levels are challenging and entertaining and the controls are very easy to manage.

Best racer on the app store - 5 stars - December 21, 2009
I've played most of them by now and this is the best serious racer on the app store. The graphics are great, the play is fluid and smooth, the controls are just about perfect and the game has plenty of depth. It is console quality without question.
This game used to be much more expensive, at $4.99 it is a steal.

Fun Game - 5 stars - December 20, 2009
This is a fun game...one of the best racing games for iPod touch/phone. Not difficult to use but challenging enough to keep you interested. As per title, much more realistic than other games out there.

O U T S T A N D I N G - 5 stars - December 20, 2009
Update from last review: A mini-map would be nice for us people who turn off the auto-braking. Other then that, is DA BMB!
I finally gave in and got this game and all I have to say is WOW. What an exciting experience I just had in the first 30 minutes of getting this! This is THE BEST racing game I've ever played! Controls are intuitive and the AI are set at the perfect difficulty for each championship. Graphics are amazing -it feels like you're actually racing the car in the inside view! This will keep you entertained for hours - tons of races with different difficulties, online play, time trials, etc! I loved playing with my friend who was sitting right next to me and bumping him into the grass!
Reasons to get this game:
Made by Firemint (one of the best developers)
So many people like it (only about 2 or 3 out of 1000 reviews are bad)
It's so addicting and has so much content and replay value.
Even though you might think $9.99 is too high of a price for you, think about those other $50.00 - $60.00 racing games you got for your XBOX/PS3. This game is comparable to those!
I reccomend this to everybody who is a fan of the racing genre! Keep up the great work Firemint!
PS - The online play in Flight Control was a nice addition :P
