Entertainment Weekly called the album "lame," noting that "Junior salutes the girls of Daytona Beach and makes pig calls on the title song." [9] The Calgary Herald dismissed it as "two-bit rock 'n' roll." [8]
The Ottawa Citizen wrote that "Williams's two biker tunes, 'Hog Wild' and 'Iron Horse', both have a spirited kind of energy." [11] The Indianapolis Star concluded that "'Daytona Nights' and 'It's a Start' are sure to appeal to women who don't mind being bedded, then stalked." [10]
