Alfredo,
It is possible to play top speed even if you're behind a router. If the
host is behind a router they simply need to forward the correct port,
and the process for doing this varies slightly depending on the
configuration of the router. I've played with friends, and the host was
behind a router. If you're all on the same network then obviously none
of that needs to be done. As far as your suggestion, I do agree that
would be a nice feature - perhaps they'll add it in a future release.

Hello guys,
Whilst in a game of Top Speed, something occurred to me as being
something quite interesting to those of you who have a passion for
communication other than casual means. I wondered why I did not think
of it before. I was in a mufti-player race. You all know that the
space bar acts like a horn, right? Well, I discovered that you can
send messages over the wire by tapping on the bar as if it were a
telegraph key. I thought it was a really interesting way to
communicate, and I found the process to be quite slow, as the players
of course did not know what Morse code is.
I do not know if this has already been suggested, but is it possible
that there could be chat communications, such as those set in Acefire,
where one could type a message for all players to see, and it could
read something like, Player X says: Message.
Anyhow, I thought I might point this out. This was with Top Speed III
by the way.
On a side note here: My friends and I are finding out that when you
are using a computer that is receiving internet from a router, you
cannot host a game, but if you are on a computer that is on a LAN
connection, and also broadcasting the wireless signal, then you can
host games. Is this true?
