Critical reception

The game received positive reviews from critics. Reviewers liked the fast-paced and simple-yet-addictive gameplay.

Amiga Computing said the fast-paced game had turned the reviewer into a "driving freak".[2] Amiga Format wrote that the game was fast, fun, funky, and French.[3] Meanwhile, The One For Amiga Games felt the game was both fast and fun, and an easy game to get into.[4] Amiga Mania liked that the game was not overly complicated.[5] Amiga Action confessed it was hard to fault the game.[6] Amiga Power said the game was faster than F1 GP, more playable than Lotus Turbo Challenge 2, prettier than Outrun Europa, and with a sillier name than Super Hang-On.[7] Nevertheless, the site acknowledged that the game was pitted against strong competition.[8] Games-X wrote that the game was a great entry in an inexhaustible genre than kept getting better.[9]

On the contrary, CU Amiga felt the simple gameplay was the title's downfall.[10]
