Also since the update the game force closes a lot now! It does keep your progress though. ### 4/5 — Cool *2025-11-27, version 2.7.9* This game is beautiful. You just need to update ### 3/5 — Could’ve been *2025-11-24, version 2.7.9* such a great idea for a game and such a great opportunity to just let it die out… ### 2/5 — Why does it crash ? *2025-11-13, version 2.7.9* After 2 weeks of playing that game it always crash, When im starting a race it last 3 second before the game close. Pretty sad Because i liked that game a lot… ### 4/5 — Addicted *2025-11-08, version 2.7.9* This game is really good. Besides the ads of course. Don’t have anything playing in the background or it will crash unfortunately. ### 3/5 — Great game. Bugs killing it *2025-10-26, version 2.7.9* It’s so so fun but it constantly crashes when I try to start a race in career mode. 5/5 stars all day without this issue. Have to watch an ad everytime it crashes and finally after 5-6 times it works. Really frustrating ### 4/5 — All in all. *2025-10-13, version 2.7.9* All in all it’s a fun and good game. My 2 complaints are it goes through spells that you try and race and soon as you get on the track it kicks you out multiple times. The minor complaint not really a complaint. I really wish it showed a points list just not where you are standing in the points. ### 3/5 — A few issues. *2025-10-10, version 2.7.9* I can’t figure out how to reset the career mode, while fun the ai is easy to predict and becomes stale after playing for a little, however the career mode is really in depth and enjoyable I currently have 543,509 thousand dollars in debt and growing. Very fun game overall and I enjoy it. ### 4/5 — Ads *2025-09-08, version 2.7.9* The game is fun to play overall. The ads only make it so I play a few races and then quit. There are just too many ads. I think one every couple load screens would be better for long term growth. But to get one for every load screen is a bit much ### 5/5 — Amazing game *2025-09-04, version 2.7.9* I am so in to NASCAR racing and I have loved every single racing game in my lifetime ### 3/5 — Great game. *2025-08-20, version 2.7.9* Amazing game. Would play it for hours if it didn’t crash every 3 minutes ### 4/5 — Awesome game Career Mode needs finished *2025-08-13, version 2.7.9* Career mode doesn’t have a “story” the entire way though ### 4/5 — Not too shabby *2025-08-01, version 2.7.9* So overall the game is great there’s just one thing I’m absolutely trapped when I’m stuck with one car and I don’t have enough money to enter in for a race and I owe the bank money so I want something like borrow friends money so that way I can get some money to borrow to fix my car or race ### 5/5 — i love ts game🥹 *2025-07-31, version 2.7.9* i love this game sm but the ads are kinda frequent and for some reason after a few races my game would crash either that was my phone or the game it didn’t matter that much but this game is amazing in each and every way it’s just so peak🥹❤️ ### 5/5 — Pls *2025-07-18, version 2.7.9* This is honestly pretty fun but it can use improvements, especially adding more noticeable damage and blowovers. Also I can't turn my phone to side and play game, pls read this and update thank you! ### 5/5 — Good game *2025-07-16, version 2.7.9* It needs more tracks ### 3/5 — Please listen if you see this *2025-07-12, version 2.7.9* I like the game so far, but there are a few improvements that I would recommend. First of all, you need to shorten the amount of time it takes to repair a car after a crash. It says it will take 2 weeks. I will not wait that long, it better be shorter than that. Also, add visible damage to the cars when they crash. Also, make things cheaper. Please do all of these things ASAP ### 3/5 — So much potential *2025-07-08, version 2.7.9* Great game but super buggy. Crashes about 50% of the time during ad transitions (there’s a lot). Still enjoyable just for short times. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-02-28, version 2.7.9* Game always makes me wreck for no reason. Damage for the slightest touch,and no graphics. Low quality. I should have never downloaded this game and I won’t ever again. TERRIBLE! ### 1/5 — Stuck on Ads *2025-08-13, version 2.7.9* Would give this 0 stars if I could. I have raced one race in career mode and now every time I try to load in to it I get stuck with the same ad that will not go away. There is no “X” or skip button anywhere. If I close out of the app and try again the same ad appears and won’t let me skip it. It is completely unplayable. ### 1/5 — Unplayable in current state *2025-05-29, version 2.7.9* The ads have become impossible to close and there are fake “x”’s to close the ads that make it so you can’t get to the actual racing. ### 1/5 — 1 season only *2025-05-18, version 2.7.9* Completed one season with multiple cars and upgrades. Get to the next season and ask cars are gone and no money. ### 1/5 — Turn down the amount of ads *2025-04-23, version 2.7.8* Too many ads ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work half the time. *2025-03-21, version 2.7.4* Every time I spend $2000 for one race, I watch an add the click race and then I race. Then it it kicks me out and it has kicked me out 12 times now! I better still have my money! I so done with this game! 0/10 ### 1/5 — Too Many Ads and Crashing *2024-12-06, version 2.6.9* The game will spam you with ads any chance it gets and it’s a 50/50 chance if it will actually work or just crash anytime you load into the game. Might be playable if it was one or the other but it’s both so 1/5 stars. Also they are all gambling ads which is super annoying. ### 1/5 — Lost All Progress *2024-11-17, version 2.6.9* Lost all of my progress. Not interested in starting over. Had one multiple seasons. Had over million dollars and two teams. ### 1/5 — fun, but has problems. *2024-10-25* Edit: new update causes game to constantly crash & when I do get a clean run in, I get wrecked from the lead for literally no reason, no bumps, just locked bumpers and my car randomly spins out. I haven’t completed a single race all week, this game is busted, don’t play it till it’s fixed. 1 star. This review was written while the game is still in development, which is why I have given it 3/5 stars instead of 2/5. The drafting dynamics of the game are okay. The game feels too reliant on pack racing which makes it frustrating and feel a bit random. The crashes are really bad, cars will often just spin or start randomly flipping like an Atari game. I understand it’s supposed to be fun, but it feels out of place. The gameplay itself is great, though vehicle upgrades feel a bit bland. The game however IS, very buggy, which I understand is likely to be resolved when the full release comes out, but even with an in-development game, I feel that these constant crashes and obvious bugs could’ve been worked out before being posted to the AppStore; it shows bad discipline. Though I admire the game for not having any microtransactions, the ads feel a little intrusive at times. All in all, I had fun playing this game, though I feel it leaves a lot to be desired. Hopefully these kinks will be worked out before the full release, but honestly, im unsure. ### 1/5 — I want to play career mode but it won’t let me *2024-10-12, version 2.5.7* Every time I try to play career mode and enter my first race, the app stops and takes me back to my phone’s Home Screen. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Goated *2026-08-16, version 2.7.9* Just goated ### 5/5 — Very great game *2026-05-25, version 2.7.9* I really enjoy the game’s physics and gameplay. The developer did an outstanding job, but in my opinion, got a little too greedy with the number of ads. It’s still a 5⭐️ game, but with less ads, it would be more playable and I’d play it more often. ### 5/5 — Best game *2026-04-16, version 2.7.9* I have this game get it now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Wow. Just wow *2026-04-07, version 2.7.9* Perfect for passing the time by just having trouble with choosing which car to choose because the William Byron car is out dated and I prefer the modern William Byron schemes and I want to race the Rajah Caruth 88 car but I did see you made a X (Twitter) post just a few days ago of what looks like a mobile version of DRAFTYCAR 2 so looking forward to that for sure and we all need to remember that this masterpiece was made by 1 person. Thank you Bryan. ### 5/5 — Great Game *2026-03-07, version 2.7.9* love this game, alot of fun ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-02-23, version 2.7.9* Love the game but its crashing a lot now ### 5/5 — Great *2026-02-17, version 2.7.9* Love it, one thing you could add is at the end of each race, there’s a replay button where you can watch the crashes you missed out on while racing ### 5/5 — Awesome game!!! *2026-01-03, version 2.7.9* This game is amazing! My kids are addicted to it. ### 5/5 — The game is great, but I have an idea to make it better *2025-09-24, version 2.7.9* This game is really great. Especially the career mode, but I have a really cool idea. How about we add corners and tri-ovals to the game🤯. Seriously, that would take the game to a whole new level ### 5/5 — Something EA, Eutechnyx & DM Racing couldn’t do *2025-09-16, version 2.7.9* This game is absolutely insane but in a good way, from the career mode all the way to the damage system is perfect, wish there was a PC/PS/XB version, I’d definitely buy. Only gripe is the app crashing after ads but, as of right now it’s in developmental stages so it’s more than expected. Hats off to you for making such an incredible and fun NASCAR-like game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
