Play Jeff Gordon XS Racing Online

Summary

Jeff Gordon XS Racing (often just called XS Racing) drops you into a futuristic 2012 stock‑car scene where you can push a sleek machine to 300 mph. The Game Boy Color version even lets you link up with a friend via the cable, turning the arcade‑style competition into a head‑to‑head showdown. Jeff Gordon himself acts as a virtual coach during the early trials, then steps onto the track as the final, tougher opponent once you’ve cleared the first season.

Tracks are packed with steep banks and corkscrew loops, but any damage you take magically repairs itself, keeping the focus on speed rather than repairs. You can chase personal bests in time‑trial mode or battle through a ten‑race championship, all while neon‑bright billboards flash sponsors like Pepsi, Fritos and 7‑Eleven.

Gordon was hands‑on during development, offering feedback that shaped the AI and handling, yet critics gave the game mixed reviews, noting its ambitious ideas but uneven execution.
