 IGN: Crash Tags In
And even though its tag-team racing concept is influenced by the most recent Mario Kart (even Naughty Dog's original Crash Team Racing owed its existence to the great wheeled one), Vivendi Universal have created an entirely different style of multi-man racing for its latest game.
Once racing, you can simply steer your way towards victory, but the real break here is that when you "clash" Crash's car (or whoever you're playing as in multiplayer) into another racer, you merge your car with them and become the turret gunning down other racers.

 Review - Crash Tag Team Racing // PlayStation 2 /// Eurogamer
Straightforward racing is only a small part of the single player mode - you access courses by exploring a huge theme park, complete with all manner of gaps to jump, switches to switch, coins to collect and items to buy.
The end result is that Crash Tag Team Racing is not a game for the kind of hardcore Mario Kart fan who spends days on end perfecting their skills.
It's very easy to win races, even on the Hard difficulty setting, the platforming sections offer no real challenge, and the fun to be had from blowing up opponents when you've clashed your kart wears thin after a while.

Crash Team Racing does an excellent job of re-creating that same thrill on the PlayStation.
Crash Team Racing has all the marks of the kart-racing genre, including big-headed characters driving diminutive go-karts, power-ups to increase speed and slow down opponents, and thematic tracks with multiple paths for exploration.
What CTR adds to the mix is fairness: tighter-turning cars are rewarded for precision driving, skillful jumping, and strategic placement of booby traps.
