After waiting 5 months for my order I finally got a copy and boy does it live up to the hype. What a terrific way to map the feeling of racing a car around the track into a boardgame. Pretty easy to teach too, had both my wife and my 10-year-old playing within 10 minutes. Lots of stuff in the box as well to expand the base playing experience.

One interesting thing after a couple of plays is that this game is really good for mismatched skill levels. You can fairly easily handicap the game, by either taking away heat from the better players or adding heat to the less capable players at the start of the game. Or doing the opposite with stress cards.
