1. 1Read the control hint on the start screen, then start a race and drive the first lap at a safe speed.
2. 2Note where you drift wide, and brake a little earlier there next time around.
3. 3Use the slipstream behind other cars on straights to close gaps, then pull out to overtake before the corner.
4. 4Collect boosts or coins if the game has them, but only when they are on your line.

The reason to play Speed is the lap you finally get right. It is free, runs in the browser without a download or account, and races are short enough that a few of them fit in a lunch break. The improvement from race to race is easy to see.

Suits anyone who likes driving games, from children who are happy to steer around a track to adults chasing a perfect lap. Works on phones, though a keyboard gives finer control.

Does Speed work on a tablet?

Yes. Tablets are a good fit for racing games because the screen is large enough for on-screen controls without covering the track.

Will the game remember my best times?

Often it will, using your browser's storage on that device. Clearing site data or switching devices resets them, since there is no account.

Is it suitable for young children?

Generally yes. Racing games are among the most child friendly on the site. Steering and accelerating are simple, and losing a race has no real consequence.
