A text-based racing career sim. Every choice costs a turn — work, practice, tune, upgrade, or race — across 90 days building toward the National Championship. Real Newtonian drag physics under the hood, a driver's journal that remembers everything, and a global leaderboard worth racing clean for.

<h2 class="bb_tag" >90 Days. One Car. One Driver</h2><p class="bb_paragraph" >  Run It Back is a text-based racing career sim where every single choice costs you a turn. Work a shift, hit the drag strip, tune the engine, or risk it on the midnight streets — the clock never stops, and the National Championship is coming whether you're ready or not.</p><p class="bb_paragraph" ></p><h2 class="bb_tag" >  Real Physics, Not Dice Rolls</h2><p class="bb_paragraph" >  Every drag race runs on a full Newtonian simulation — power, torque, weight, drag, gearing —  timestepped down to the tenth of a second. Your car's numbers aren't flavor text. Bolt on the wrong  turbo for your build and you'll actually go slower. Get the tune right and feel the difference on  the strip.</p><p class="bb_paragraph" ></p><h2 class="bb_tag" >  Build a Driver, Not Just a Car</h2><p class="bb_paragraph" >  Seven skills — Nerve, Launch, Shifting, Racing, Discipline, Mechanic, Tuning — grow from what you  actually do. Practice sharpens reflexes. A dyno session teaches you to read an engine. A night at  the drive-in might teach you something no amount of grinding at the track ever will. There aren't  enough days to master everything — every run is defined by what you chose to get good at.</p><p class="bb_paragraph" ></p><h2 class="bb_tag" >  The Street Doesn't Forgive</h2><p class="bb_paragraph" >  Wager real cash against a field of NPC racers who'll walk away from a bet they can't cover — or  clean you out if you can't cover yours. Win big, or eat a police fine on the way home. Once you're  in for the night, you're in.</p><p class="bb_paragraph" ></p><h2 class="bb_tag" >Your Journal Remembers</h2><p class="bb_paragraph" >  Every turn writes itself into a driver's journal — wins, losses, late nights, and the slow climb  from a stock engine to something that can actually compete. Flip back through 90 days and watch the  story you built.</p><h2 class="bb_tag" >Climb the Global Leaderboard</h2><p class="bb_paragraph" >  Post your best quarter-mile time to a live, worldwide leaderboard. One car, one build, one number —  and it's yours to beat.</p><p class="bb_paragraph" ></p><ul class="bb_ul"><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >Full Newtonian drag race physics simulation</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >Street racing with dynamic wagers and NPC personalities</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >Deep car tuning: dyno sessions, part detuning, optimal power windows</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >Seven trainable driver skills across multiple activities</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >A persistent journal that narrates your entire 90-day run</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >Steam global leaderboard for quarter-mile bragging rights</p></li></ul>
