Yes, it is finnaly installable through the play store on TV
found it by search:
- play store
It is not included in the category racing games, but there are only 20 games in there, so I think it is still to unpopular to be included.
I tried different searches and counted on which place supertuxkart was:
"racing": place 61
"kart": place 24
"kart racing": place
16I also made a short gameplay video, but the resolution is not so good, maybe I can do a better one after looking into the settings of the recorder:

Some things I noticed:
In the keyboard layout only the up/down keys work for navigating, but it's moving sideway using these. But this is not so important now because a user can only be added with a mouse (with gamepad it still does not work)
If you're just viewing a ghost race you can't exit out of it. If you press back, the normal pause menu opens, but I can't select anything even the focus does not move (I only could exit with my mouse)
I felt a bit input lag, especially after drifting when getting the drivt bonus boost.
Some of the texts under the symbols of the main menu ( single player, addons, ..) are hard to read on my TV because of the contrast (black on grey) and because they are pretty small.
This menu sreen you can see the symbols are also very small and hard to recognize if your not sitting directly in front of the TV:
- small menu
And I would still suggest updating the TV banner
(don't know if you saw my comment on the commit for adding the banner)
I think the kart on it is to small and it would be better visible if it wasn't shown directly from the back, and I would suggest on using the original supertuxkart logo.
An example of what I would like to see is this (it could have higher resolution, but I just cut it out of the twitter banner, only mean as example):

But this are just my two cents
EDIT:
Almost forgot: when the game is loading longer for example when extracting the tracks at first start or loading an demanding track I got the alert that the app is not responding (like you can see in the video) but the app won't crash if I click wait
