The monetization strategy of the game has been heavily criticized for its excessive and intrusive ads, with many players reporting that they spend more time watching ads than actually playing. Users express frustration over mandatory ads after nearly every race, often lasting longer than the gameplay itself, and feel that the game leans towards a pay-to-win model, where significant progress requires either watching numerous ads or making in-app purchases. While some players appreciate the option to watch ads for rewards, the overwhelming consensus is that the sheer volume and length of ads detract significantly from the overall gaming experience.
“In-app purchases are reasonably priced.”
“Takes time to gain coins for in-game purchases, but if you're willing to buy items, you can win a lot.”
“Has microtransactions done in the right way.”
“I completely understand that free games need ads to keep the game free, but there's literally an ad after every race and the race average time is 30 seconds... so pretty much you have to watch an ad every 30 seconds.”
“However, someone came in on this project and turned it into the most advertisement-ridden / pay-to-win game model I've ever experienced.”
“It's pretty unforgivable which is a travesty because this game is actually pretty good if not for the fact that you literally spend more time watching ads than playing the actual game.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious and overly time-consuming, as it requires repetitive racing to collect parts for upgrades, with some noting that the long ad interruptions exacerbate the frustration. While the game is enjoyable initially, the grind for vehicle upgrades quickly becomes a chore, leading to a sense of burnout.
“The ads to progress are way too long, the grinding is way too boring as you get just one part every race and when you need 150 per part per bike, that's absurd.”
“The game itself is pretty fun; however, it doesn't take long before you're just grinding to get vehicles upgraded and replaying the same tracks over and over again.”
“It starts to get too expensive and grindy to continue.”
