- Owner: Owned for years and loves it; simple with lots of strategy, less luck than Heat (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLwBdkH7UAU&lc=Ugy-PBQ-52NbI9insxN4AaABAg)
- Community: Looks awesome; intends to look for it (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLwBdkH7UAU&lc=Ugx3xGckPY157NR3Y3h4AaABAg)

Problems owners mention: trailing cars struggle to catch up; confusing at first; too much luck reliance; possible balance issue with 6 cars; possible balance issues at some player counts; rules ambiguity on extend.
