CarX Drift Racing 2 is the phone game people open when they want a car to slide, not just go fast. The pull is the feel of holding a long angle through a corner and watching the score climb. That usually means a large install and a garage full of tuning menus. We wanted the slide itself available in one tap, so we built Slide Circuit, a small 3D drift game that runs right here on this page. Free, no download, no signup.

Tap to drive. Steer, hold DRIFT into a corner, and ease off to bank your points. Best played with sound on.
How to play
You get 75 seconds on a closed circuit walled in by barriers. On a phone, hold LEFT or RIGHT to steer and hold DRIFT to kick the tail out. The car accelerates for you. On desktop, use W and the arrow keys to drive, A and D to steer, S to brake and space as the handbrake. At high speed a hard turn will also start a slide on its own.
Points come from three things multiplied together: how wide the angle is, how fast you are going, and how close you run to the wall. Keep the slide going and your multiplier grows to x6. Let go and straighten out to bank it, but hit the wall after the first 20 seconds and you lose whatever you had not banked. Clip the orange cones on the inside of corners for a bonus.
Today’s circuit is generated from the date, so everyone drives the same layout, and a new one arrives tomorrow. Your best score and day streak are saved on your device. Nothing leaves your browser.
How it compares to CarX Drift Racing 2
Slide Circuit keeps the part we think matters most: the moment-to-moment feel of balancing a slide, and the pull of a scoring chain you do not want to break. Runs last 75 seconds, restarting takes one tap, and the risk-reward of running close to a wall works the way it does on a real drift course.
We left out nearly everything else on purpose. There is no garage, no car customization, no tuning of suspension or tire pressure, no tandem battles and no online ranking. You get one car, one handling model and a fresh circuit each day. The physics is an arcade simplification, not the tuned simulation CarX built its name on, and we will not pretend otherwise.
If you catch yourself on a fifth run here, the real game is the better next stop. CarX Drift Racing 2 has deep car tuning, multiple drift tracks, online tandem drifting and a long career to work through. Slide Circuit is the quick warm-up. The app is the full session.

Frequently asked questions
Can I play CarX Drift Racing 2 in a browser?
CarX Drift Racing 2 is a native Android and iOS app, and we are not aware of an official browser version. Slide Circuit, the game on this page, is our own original drift game built around the same idea of chaining slides for score, and it runs in any modern browser on phone or desktop. For the real thing, with its cars and tuning, you need the app.
Is this the real CarX Drift Racing 2?
No. Slide Circuit is an original game we built, inspired by the drift-and-score loop of CarX Drift Racing 2. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to CarX Technologies in any way. The car, track, sounds and code are all our own, and the download links above point to the official app.
Is it free?
Yes. There are no ads, no purchases, no accounts and no data collection. Your best score and streak live in your browser’s local storage and are never sent anywhere.
Does it work offline?
Once the page has loaded, Slide Circuit makes no further network requests, so it keeps running if your connection drops. CarX Drift Racing 2 itself needs a download first, and some of its modes require an online connection.
Why is the circuit the same for everyone today?
The track layout, cone positions and sky are generated from today’s date. Everyone drives the same circuit on the same day, so scores are comparable, and a new one arrives at midnight. We check that every generated circuit is drivable before it can be picked.
