The racing is presented in a 3D view from behind the player's car (essentially the same as the NES classic Days Of Thunder), which is preferable to a top down point of view, but severely limits visibility into the distance. While there's a good selection of drivers and teams available in the game (presumably the same as the real life NASCAR lineup of the time), it's almost impossible to tell the cars apart save for a few specks of colour in the game, so players needn't bother spending too long considering who they'll choose. Firstly, even the title screen looks as if it's been put through several compression cycles and tinted an odd shade of green, and the menus all feature tiny text and options.
Obviously being on the Game Boy Colour wasn't a good start for this game, as the other versions were on PS1, N64 and PC, but several other factors hampered any sense of fun that could have been gained. I'm no NASCAR expert, but I've seen my fair share of NASCAR games here and there.
