- Better as a Let's Play: Bills itself as "the most realistic racing simulation game in the world", and the high barriers of entry (specially-made wheel and pedal controllers are a necessity to be any good at the game, and each track and vehicle is sold separately) drive many away from playing. However, the fact that it is such a detailed replication of real-world car racing makes it just as fun to watch for many fans. Many racing leagues, like NASCAR and IndyCar, used it to replace live race broadcasts during the COVID19 pandemic.
- Fandom Rivalry: There exists some vitrol between the website users and Steam users in regards of advantages; while the official website version comes with newer updates which are Late Export for You for Steam users, their subscription plans come at a steep cost, while Steam users may get cheaper discounts, they may not get the immediate updates in comparison.
