DrawRace for the iPhone and iPod Touch Video Review

We've stated before that the "perfect" (at least to us) racing game for the iPhone/iPod Touch still doesn't exist. We have to give kudos to DrawRace for going in an entirely different direction, and creating a game that's fun to play, and has you hanging on to play "just on more time."

DrawRace features a simple overhead view of the race track. You then move your finger around the track to create the path and speed you'd like your car to go. Once you've completed the set number of laps, the race begins, and your car follows your path against a computer adversary, time trial, or network opponent.

The play is easy to catch on, but we just wish there were more laps in each race, as going around and around drawing your path gets more complicated with more laps.
