Overall, the story mode offers a sense of achievement, but it may leave players wanting more depth.

The music in the game is generally well-received, with a solid soundtrack that enhances the drifting experience and fits the competitive vibe. However, some players find it can become repetitive or annoying over time, and the overall immersion is negatively impacted by intrusive ads and other gameplay issues. Despite these drawbacks, the soundtrack is considered a strong point for a free drifting game.
- “I liked the soundtrack; it has a good rotation of music titles until you complete the competitions in single-player or play some multiplayer versus. It has the vibe to drift with them, so it gives me the right atmosphere on track as well, and it fits well.”
- “Drift mechanics are great, the soundtrack is pretty good, and the graphics are excellent. Just the turbo sound effects sound like they were made by a beatboxer.”
- “The physics are satisfying enough, and the challenge can be nice sometimes, but beyond that... it feels dead, boring, no music, no crowds, the giant video ads slapped onto literally every available surface, on track signs, in front of the grandstands, they completely nuke your immersion and grind the charred remains into a fine powder.”
- “The music can get annoying at times, but for a free drifter it's awesome.”

Overall, players feel that the monetization strategy undermines the game's potential, making it feel more like a mobile cash grab than a well-crafted title.

- “I appreciate that the game offers cosmetic items for purchase without impacting gameplay balance.”
