"Feel It 92" has this retro-tinged electronic pulse that pairs beautifully with kicking up dirt at 80mph. "Accident Waiting To Happen" is the kind of track name that hits different when you're sideways on a hairpin in Norway.

"SUPERLIKE" has that attention-grabbing capital-letter confidence. "Years In The Making" closes with a sense of journey and accomplishment that fits the career mode perfectly. Eighteen tracks, no filler, and you'll probably Shazam at least three of them mid-race.
