Meh so so for me. I was already max level, so I haven't used it for leveling. Maybe I'll change my mind after the next (hopeful) update. So for me, I only use it if I see that I need to kill 5 minutes before a dragon egg or breeding pair is ready.
I would like it better if it dropped a couple of those gems on me now and again. The net results are in the positive though, in the way of DC, XP and Dragon Chow.
Oh...and the entertainment value of the Forge and Flower doing the Hokey Pokey is priceless!
It's cool. The food and Gem prizes are a joke though. Considering how much food it takes to get just one Dragon to level 20, the most food you can win is 5,000? That's insulting.

Agreed. The XP was awesome- especially the 48 million XP, some higher food and DC prizes should be there too..

50 000 DC can buy you 1000 food. How much do you think you should be able to win?
Meh, so so. Not that I don't like it, but it's very repetitive and the prizes aren't all that wow either. And I never get XP out of it anyway, only 2000 food or some useless cash back.
No I'd rather see it changed in challenge and made a once every so often deal, but with better prizes.
Fletch is right. The amount of food is reasonable for the entrance fee, although it would perhaps be nice to see one super high food prize that would be totally unobtainable of course, I mean we'd miss the 2750 food if we got 10,000 food all the time
I've voted that I like it, without really loving it but I didn't really get the chance to use it for xp before I levelled 35. That said I'm with Myke as in I use it to kill 5 mins whilst I'm waiting for breeding pairs to finish or eggs to hatch and I find it entertaining in that time so I'm happy that it's here.

It's so-so. I play it if I have time to kill (like 5 mins before a dragon is done or something). I would never just log in to play it though. I do think it might be nice to have a maximum number of races per 24 hours though. And actually winning an occasional gem would be nice, I only won one one time (how's that Mr. Grammarian? <grin>)....
I think the track is fun. I still get a smile from some of the dragons doing their happy dance. Yes, now that I've figured out the best dragon for each race, it's predictable, but once in a while I race a different one just to liven things up. It does come in handy for filling time, and I've actually leveled up faster because of it, I'm sure. So, my vote is definitely positive.
I hit level 21 yesterday and it almost seems as if the XP prizes have thinned. I hope I am imagining that, because I have a long way till 35 LOL!
After I posted this I got an XP bonus of 1.5 mill! (approx.) It can be a nice way to earn XP, especially if your other activities are regulated due to say....a gem dragon competion.
I can't believe I'm going to say this but I still to this day have only played the one practice round. I guess it's time to get on it....and renovate that new island while I'm at it. I have had just too many other things to do and it has either been spend a little time on the forum or decorate and race.

The game is entertaining but I have won gems twice and both times the wheel froze and I lost the prizes. This happens quite often so it ruins the game for me.

Key word; "can". There should be a 10,000 food prize along with the 2,500; 2,750; etc. I also think there should be a 5 gem prize to go along with the 1 and 2 gem prize.

Fixed it for you. It's all about the semi-colon.
hmmmm, I don't remember typing all that... the dragon breeding must've been driving me to drink. Although I'm not sure I remember the drinking either

Actually, if you use blushrooms 50,000 can buy 3,000 snacks, but you have to wait two hours. Since most of the time you get 2750 treats, it's not a bad trade off since you get the food immediately.
I think the track is a great addition. I wouldn't log in just to play it, but it gives you something to do besides waiting. And many times in which I need, say, 20,000 treats in order to have the 160,000 needed for leveling another dragon, I find it quicker to play the track for 10 minutes or less to get that food than waiting for my dragons to generate 1 million DC.
New goal: Crown 5 more dragons. Treats needed: 26,214,400. Current treats: 14,000,000
