The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some praising the quality of car visuals while others criticize the overall graphical fidelity, likening it to outdated systems like the PS3 and PS1. Many users express frustration over the lack of customizable graphics settings, which detracts from the experience. Overall, while there are moments of good graphics, the limitations and inconsistencies leave much to be desired.

The gameplay has been criticized for being minimal and poorly executed, with long loading times and nonsensical minigames, leading to a lack of engagement. However, some players find it enjoyable enough for the price, noting that they feel they received value for their money despite the overall shortcomings.

The game has limited replayability due to its short length and the ability to easily dominate once a solid strategy is established, making it less appealing at full price.
“It's relatively short, which is okay if you grab it on sale, but I wouldn't pay full price for it because it lacks replayability. Once you lock in a solid tune, you can simply romp over the competition and sail to the end.”
