About Fast Car Race
Fast Car Race is a one-tap 3D car racing game: you, a rival and a hilly road to the finish line. Hold the screen to put your foot down and let go to coast. Your rival drives on its own, and whoever crosses the line first wins.
Every level builds a new track, and it gets longer and wilder as you go: rolling hills, ramps that throw you into slow-motion air time, big climbs, dips and bumpy washboard roads. Fuel is the catch, so grab the fuel barrels, hit the orange boost pads and collect the coin lines over the jumps. Every fifth level is a coin run and every tenth a mountain stage, and the world changes every three levels, from Sky Hills and Green Valley to Dune Run, Sunset Peaks, Ice Pass, Moonlight Drive, Autumn Ridge, Storm Track and Neon Highway.
Coins buy thirteen cars in the garage on the start screen, from the Pickup Truck to the Rally Car, Monster Truck, Supercar and Formula Racer, each with its own engine and fuel tank, plus a Fuel Tank and Engine upgrade and eight paint jobs. Fast Car Race works on phones, tablets and computers with no download, and your coins are shared with every other TinyJar game.

How to play Fast Car Race
- Pick a car with the arrows on the start screen (buy new ones with coins), then tap to start.
- Hold the screen (or the mouse button) to accelerate; let go to coast.
- Watch the fuel gauge: holding the pedal burns fuel. Drive through fuel barrels to top up.
- Cross the finish line before your rival to win the level.
Controls
- Computer
- Hold the left mouse button to accelerate, release it to coast.
- Phone and tablet
- Touch and hold the screen to accelerate, lift your finger to coast.
Tips
- Do not hold the pedal the whole way: you will run out of fuel before the finish.
- Hold on the climbs and coast down the other side, where gravity does the work.
- Hit ramps at speed: the coins are in the air above them.
- Boost pads give a free burst of speed without burning fuel.
- A car with a bigger fuel tank makes the long mountain stages much easier.

How many levels are there?
There is no end. Every level is a new generated track that gets longer and adds jumps, climbs, bumps, fuel barrels and boost pads, in nine worlds that change every three levels.
Why did I lose with the pedal held down?
You ran out of fuel. Holding the pedal burns fuel, so coast down the hills and save it for the climbs.
