nascar video games
what are your thoughts of the Nascar ‘08 video game?

i got it yesterday, and i find it to be a little disappointing. there are many tracks on the Busch series that are missing. the Milwaukee Mile isn’ on there. it looks like they just copied the tracks for the cup drivers to go with the Busch, and Craftman’s truck.

there is also very little items to unlock, and not too many paint, and sponsors to chose from when creating your own car.

they don’t even give you a real choice to chose from when chosing your favorite driver’s car and their different car logos.

what are your thoughts on the new Nascar ‘08? do you like it, or do you also feel it to be disappointing
the best nascar game EA has made was Nascar Thunder 2004.

Keep in mind that this is the first release for Ps3 and XBOX 360. We have to make sacrifices because it’s a first release and you know the first release of MADDEN on the 360 was total junk, and a piece of crap. The game is hard and the casual pick it up and be great days are over. It pays to practice. Yes they could have had a ton more paint schemes for the driver and for the user created car. I was a little disappointed at that. I like using the Microsoft racing wheel though. It was definitely worth the money. If you have a controller, set your sensitivity down as low as you can. It will help on the restrictor plate races. I love all of the tuning options, although some tutorial would have helped out a little bit here. They could have easily put that in the instruction manual or included it in like they did with Forza! The game is tough, I’ll give them that! The computer is a little overaggressive. Not all of the tracks will release rights for EA to have them in the game so yes they will always be left out unless they give permission. Carl Edwards is missing too. But we can’t have everything I guess!!! I like the game, its fun, a challenge, a little ridiculous at times, but then again what game isn’t cheap and pathetic at times!!! Getting gold on the license is nearly impossible. I have only a handful of them!

The Variants Of The Always Exciting Motor Sports

There are many types of motor sports and most of them involve some type of race. Some of the motor sports enjoyed by Americans include auto racing, truck racing, boat racing, motorcycle racing, as well as ATV racing. Some other motor sports include tractor and truck pulling, and while these events don’t necessarily involve a race, some type of competition always exists.

Motor sport fans who just can’t get enough of automobile racing have a diversity of different type of racing to choose from, all of which include different types of cars and different rules and regulations that govern this particular motor sport. Each individual type of automobile racing also has a specific type of track that the race is held one. Some types of automobile racing include NASCAR, drag racing, endurance racing, Formula One, off road, mud racing, midget racing, modified car racing as well as rally races. Fans of this motor sport are excited to see their favorite drivers reach top speeds, have their cars perform well and enter the winners circle at the end of the race.

Motorcycle racing is another motor sport enjoyed by many, and also includes various types of racing. There are races for speed bikes, drag bikes, dirt bikes and mini bikes. Some motorcycles are raced on an oval track, while others are run down a straight and narrow track. Dirt bike racing is often held on a dirt filled track, sometimes inside a large arena, and the grounds the drivers must cover include hills, hair pin turns and steep inclines. All of this makes for quite an exciting spectacle for the motor sport fan.

Boat racing is yet another motor sport enjoyed by fans as well as by those who engage in the fast paced, often dangerous motor sport. For those who enjoy boat racing, hydroplane boats are the watercraft of choice. This type of motor sport can be traced back to the early 1900’s, when powerboats started becoming popular. Today, these particular boats can reach speeds in excess of 200 miles per hour, and every day a new driver is trying to beat the odds at breaking one of the water speed records.

Truck racing is also a popular motor sport, and basically has four different categories; the Craftsman Truck Series, monster trucks, mud racing and off-road racing. Truck races can be held on a straight track, on an oval track, across many miles during an off-road race, or in an arena or roped off area that contains mud pits. Truck pulls are very exciting to watch, and is a motor sport with many fans. During a truck pull, two trucks back up against one another and a big, heavy-duty rope is tied between the bumpers. The first truck to pull the other truck over a predetermined line in the center of the pit is the winner.

‘Spec Racing’ at the top levels of the sport….it just doesn’t seem right, does it?

The tradition of the Indy 500 and Championship-level racing has been innovation and newness. Think about the rear-engine revolution in the 1960’s, the Lotus turbines, the diesels back in the day, the John Barnard Chaparrals, etc….

…..it just seems kind of sad that top-level American open wheel racing is spec. Half of the fun, seeing the new cars every year, is gone.

What do you think? Will the innovation return to Indy- and Champ- car racing?

I’ve always said that attempting to regulate the economics of a sport by regulating its technology is doomed to failure. Look at NASCAR — not that NASCAR is a failure by any stretch, but their teams spend the $$$ available to them, and always will. If you want to regulate budgets, well then regulate them sort of the way the NFL does the salary cap. If it’s going to be a customer-car situation like CART was, then it’s pretty easy to at least set the price a chassis, gearbox, and engine go for…

i agree completely, one thing i liked about the old ppg indy car series was that if you wanted to buy a car lola, raynard, and swift were there to sell them to you. but if you wanted to build one like penski did then that option was there as well,

the biggest problem with the indy 500 is this….
i have a thousand dollar bet that next years indy 500 winner will a dallara, powered by Honda on Firestone tires….any takers? that’s whats wrong with indy
