The one control you need to know
Summary
The game keeps its control scheme simple: press Ctrl to sprint and push your car to higher speed. Because that is the only listed keybind, mastering the timing of that boost is the whole game from a controls standpoint.
- Sprint hold Ctrl to accelerate above normal speed
- Nitro your boost fuel; use it to pull ahead of rivals
- Ramps scattered across each track; hitting them at full sprint launches you into the air
How to fight other cars
Tips
This is a crash simulator, so deliberate collisions are the main way to beat opponents. Rooms hold up to 20 players, which means pile-ups happen constantly. Staying fast while everyone around you is spinning is the real skill.
- Stay on the sprint whenever the track is open.
- Soar off ramps to dodge obstacles and blast past rivals with nitro-fueled speed.
- Wreck opponents and unleash mayhem across stunt-filled tracks.
The Tuner Gamepass

Common questions
FAQHow do I win races?
Keep your sprint active as much as possible and ram rivals off the track. Soar off ramps, dodge obstacles, and blast past rivals with nitro-fueled speed.
Is the game playable solo?
Yes. Each session can fill with up to 20 players, so joining alone still drops you into a busy race almost immediately. You do not need a group of friends to have opponents to crash into.
Do I need the Tuner Gamepass to compete?
No. The core racing and crashing features are fully available without it. The gamepass adds tuning options for players who want extra customisation.
