Design risks
| R1 | Compulsion-loop pressure | 0.03 | |
| R2 | Monetization | 0.00 | |
| R3 | Social risk | 0.17 | |
While generally low-risk, the competitive nature of online racing could lead to minor social comparison. The game's focus on individual skill development means it offers limited opportunities for social-emotional growth such as teamwork or empathy. There are no significant compulsion-loop design or monetization risks due to the absence of microtransactions or manipulative design mechanics.
