Hyper-real drag racing on Android. Officially licensed supercars, true-to-life engine audio, photoreal garages, and 1.4 mile straights you tune one millisecond at a time.
What is CSR Racing 2
CSR Racing 2 is a drag racing game from NaturalMotion, the London studio Zynga acquired in 2014. The game rebuilt the original CSR formula on a new engine that delivers console-grade graphics for the supercar tier: real headlight reflections, real bodywork curves, and licensed cars from Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren, Bugatti, Pagani, and the Koenigsegg roster. Every car is rendered with the same fidelity used in the manufacturer reference images, then tuned in-app to a quarter mile time you push down ten thousandths of a second at a stretch.
The loop is shift, perfect launch, shift, repeat. There is no steering. Every race is a quarter mile or a half mile of perfect throttle work, gear selection, and a launch sequence timed against an animated bar. The depth lives in the upgrade tree: dyno tune, weight reduction, gearing, nitrous, and stage-six engine work that turns a stock Huracan into a 7-second machine. Multiplayer ladders rank players against other tuned builds in the same tier, and Crew battles bring a co-operative layer where five players grind a shared boss.
The game is free with optional cash and gold purchases that accelerate the upgrade curve. CSR 2 has been a flagship racing title on Android for nine years and crossed the 100 million install mark in 2024.

FAQ
- Is CSR Racing 2 free to play?
- Yes. The official CSR Racing 2 on Google Play is free to download, with optional cash and gold purchases that accelerate the upgrade tree. The modded APK on this page removes the cost of those purchases for evaluation.
- Will my Google Play progress carry over to the modded build?
- Cloud saves use a separate signature, so the modded build starts a fresh garage. Treat the modded install as a standalone account; do not link it to a Facebook or Zynga ID tied to your main progression.
- Does the anti ban patch actually work online?
- The patch masks the most common mod fingerprints and keeps online play available for tier ladders and crew events. Server side enforcement evolves, so the safe practice is to use a side account for the modded build, not your primary tier 5 garage.
- What Android version do I need?
- CSR Racing 2 version 6.5.1 requires Android 9.0 or above. The game ships universal APKs covering arm64-v8a and armeabi-v7a; 64-bit chipsets handle the photoreal garage and 60fps mode best.
- How big is the install?
- The CSR Racing 2 APK is approximately 1.8 GB. Plan for around 3 GB of free space after first launch, since the game caches additional car model packs as you progress through the tiers.
