All I remember about Nascar... 2007 I think on the PS2 (The one with Diary of Jane as the theme, only reason I borrowed it from a friend tbh :P) was annoying controls and left turns. Pass.hexashadow13

Yeah, but I'm not paying a subscription fee to play a racing game.

I'm very dissapointed about the misconceptions people have about nascar.

this image that it's just cars drafting down a straightaway is rediculous. I think thatdaytona and dega are what give this image, butwhat people don't realize, is that while the plate tracks where it's wide open and the draft are their own beast and quite fun to watch, the drivers and team basically write those tracksoff becouse of howdifferent they are than everything else. It's only like that at those two tracks, which happen to be most popular.

Everywhere else the braking, and the line and how precise you have to be, how much you have to manage the car andsave your tires, is just ashard/important as any other motorsport, if not more.

The difference, is it's designed to focusmore on racing other drivers, and less on the track. The elements added becouse of this, are often unappreciated by people who don't follow the sport.

personally, I feel like something is missing from other sports, such as F1, becouse from my viewpoint, I can say it's just cars hotlapping in a line, with relatively very few driver vs driver situations, competition that is not nearly as even, and drivers with ZERO personality.

However I love the f1 qualifying format.

Oh, and for all the turn left jokes... let me see you win the Daytona 500, then come back to me. Also, Watkins Glen and Infineon Raceway say hi.

No one said NASCAR was easy...just that it was boring. :)

Also to the ones say turning left is boring aswell, remember tracks even like Daytona have a dog leg on the front stretch. During that transistion it is very possible to get loose. Now put that feeling of being slippery, with a pack of cars on your rear end pushing you while going 196mph. All the while being in front of the entire pack trying not to lose it, just hanging on and trying your best to win the race, watching the mirror just as much as out the front window. Sorry, but years racing online on Nascar Racing 2003 tells me that if someone thinks that Nascar Racing is boring, then you've raced the wrong series or haven't raced a proper Nascar Sim :)

I don't get it. What amount of damage does a car go through to get the outer metal torn off, but have the insides (chassi) be perfectly intact?

Hitting a wall with the front of your car? Many NASCAR cars damage the front ends without having any damage to the middle part of the car. That's why when you watch the Bristol races you could have all the sheet metal in the front of the car missing while the middle and rear of the car looks fine.

What systems is this coming to?

I can't wait to turn left! And then...turn left! And...turn left? Woo! Boring!

I'll pass. I'm into more arcadey racers anyway.
