- “Will uninstall and reinstall to see if it makes a difference, but generally speaking, the volume of ads is obstructive and seriously detracts from the enjoyment of a good game.”

Players appreciate the game's graphics and overall performance but express a desire for better car upgrade options and a more meaningful in-game economy. They suggest that the ability to enhance car performance and earn currency through gameplay would enhance the overall experience.
- “Outstanding performance!!”
- “I love the game and graphics, but my car is maxed out and there should be an option to upgrade cars for better performance. Additionally, the in-game currency feels useless; players should earn money for building tracks or winning races. For instance, getting $25 each time would be great, and the pricing for cars should reflect their performance, starting with the worst car at $100k and increasing from there.”
