Responsible Gaming

Keep the ride fun and know when to hit the brakes

Important Notice

Ride too hard and you lose control of the throttle. Gambling can become an addiction, and if Hot Rod Hog has started eating into your wallet, your focus, or your home life, pull over and ask for help. Support is on call day and night, and no rider has to go it alone.

Signs of Problem Gambling

  • Spending more money than you can afford to lose
  • Neglecting work, family, or other responsibilities
  • Chasing losses by gambling more
  • Borrowing money or selling possessions to gamble
  • Lying about gambling habits
  • Feeling anxious or depressed about gambling
  • Being unable to stop or reduce gambling

Tips for Safe Gambling

Set a Budget

Fill the tank with only what you can afford to burn, and don't reach for more.

Set Time Limits

Hot Rod Hog keeps the engine roaring for hours. Set a limit and kill the ignition when it hits.

Never Chase Losses

Flooring it after a loss just spins the wheels. Ease off and let the losing run end.

Take Breaks

Pull into the pit often. A break clears your head before the next lap.
