The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many players praising the realistic visuals, clean layouts, and solid performance, particularly on steering wheels.

- “Huge number of dirt and paved tracks, four different car models, great graphics and sound.”
- “Good graphics, realistic racing, and clean layout.”
- “This game is absolutely horrible; graphically, it looks like you are floating over the track. The tracks themselves play like some of the really poor tracks that were in the original Dirt Track Racing, which still blows this game away.”

- “The only real big issue is that the crash physics are still overly arcadey and just don't fit in with the rest of the game's aesthetic.”

The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players praising the addictive soundtrack and its nostalgic feel reminiscent of old NASCAR games, while others criticize it as a poor blend of pop country and emo. The soundtrack has expanded from eight to eleven songs, and while some tracks are well-received, players recommend turning off the race music to better appreciate the in-game sounds. Overall, the music aspect is seen as a notable but divisive element of the gaming experience.
- “Realistic and authentic racing game, and the music is awesome!”
- “Addicting earworm soundtrack that keeps you into it even in loading/menu screens, reminds of the old NASCAR games.”
- “It's also a bit bigger than the last game, with 11 songs compared to 8, which is great considering you can turn music on while racing.”
- “My only real complaint with the game is that it has the absolute worst music I've ever heard in my life as a soundtrack, a bizarre blend of pop country with the occasional dash of emo.”
- “Other than that, this is literally mostly all American racing with a slightly better soundtrack, a small graphics upgrade and a welcome physics upgrade and the addition of a smattering of asphalt tracks.”
- “Maybe, and the returning song from Heat 3, though I would've preferred a different Fire Fences song.”
