The game brings back nostalgic memories for players who enjoyed similar titles like Re-Volt.
There is a wide selection of cars and tracks, along with a creative and customizable track editor.
The game has potential for improvement with consistent updates and offers enjoyable gameplay with friends.

The game suffers from poor optimization, low FPS, and unresponsive controls, making it difficult to enjoy at higher settings.
The physics and handling model feel unrealistic and 'slidy', leading to a frustrating driving experience.
The progression system is overly grindy, locking much of the content behind excessive cash requirements, which detracts from the overall enjoyment.
