DRAG RIVALS 4 : A 150-SHOT OF NITROUS CAN FIX DAT! Part 1
Ken - T Racing has started the countdown. We are now few days away from the ultimate celebration of the internal combustion engine - racing! But, if the truth is relevant here, we will admit that the countdown to Drag Rivals 4 (DR-4) began exactly one second after Drag Rivals 3 ended !
