Gameplay

Players could purchase temporary boosts and permanent upgrades.

In multiplayer you were able to compete against other players from all over the world and create teams. There were more than 1,400 events in total with modes such as classic races, duels, knockout and overtaking. New challenges were added weekly. There were different weather conditions, driving aids and customization options.

Reception
Derek C. Tillotson of Gamezebo gave the game 4 out of 5 stars and stated, "Despite its lack of price tag, this one is well worth a shot for those open to a new racing experience, this one is well worth a shot. It has all the elements and polish that those titles do. Not original, but still fun." Jon Mundy of Pocket Gamer gave the game 4 out of 5 stars and stated, "GT Racing 2 is a slightly less dazzling with a marginally less obnoxious IAP system. It's a very good racing game, and a great showcase for newer Apple hardware."
