Made this car last night. Pretty simple design, but I'm not a patient enough person to sit there for hours and create something really neat.

Looks like a quality start and park entry
Neat, good job 👍CodeRedR51

I've spent some quality time on it and changed the car quite a bit actually. I'll post a new photo tomorrow.

iPhone. It does not play embedded videos uploaded as "HD". If he posted a direct link, it would take me to m.YouTube.com/blah-blah-yadda-yadda and it would then play. This has been a known issue. When someone embeds an HD video I see the word "unavailable".
I'm one of RACECAR's subs, I'll hunt him down on YT later.

Simple, tapped Safari, swiped over to m.YouTube.com, then went to subscriptions, went down to some dude named Spyker and then went to his most recent video
You do know I'm just bustin' your ballz, right?
Posting the link launches m.YouTube and the video plays. Saw that video awhile ago.

Patch 3 is coming:
The NASCAR The Game 2011 Patch 3
November 4th 2011
Were pleased to announce that we will soon be releasing Patch #3 for NASCAR The Game 2011. The patch has already successfully passed our internal testing procedure and has now gone into full test with Activision. Once this is completed the patch will be submitted to Microsoft & Sony for approval.
You can find complete lists of the Fixes and Improvements included in Patch 3 below. Most noticeable amongst these fixes are the Loose Glitch & Online Surging, as theyve come to be known.
Fixes
Xbox 360 - The car randomly loses rear end grip whilst playing online (Loose Glitch).
After a severe spin, the car lacks rear end grip and makes it feel very loose.
During online races, particularly on the Superspeedways, players cars can surge backward and forward making it impossible to bump draft. (Online Surging)
Online - On the initial rolling start, the formation can be incorrectly spaced.
During an online caution when the NASCAR Sprint Cup transition screen is displayed sometimes your car can get damaged.
Caution lights can be inversed for Texas, Talladega and Watkins Glen i.e. yellow when there isnt a Caution and green when there is a Caution.
Under Caution players cars drive through the Pace Car
Xbox 360 - Incompatible NAT types will not be allowed in to the same lobbies. Players will be given a message informing them that there is a problem and detail their NAT type. This will stop the players being booted from the game when the lobby count reaches zero. The PS3 handles this already.
Under certain conditions, super quick lap times are posted to the leaderboard.
Leaderboard times are not shown correctly in the Lobby.
The game sometime freezes on the loading screen when launching an online game.
Players Still Racing message can sometimes be seen in the Lobby even though all players have finished racing.
PS3 Paint Booth freezes.
In a Lobby, when muting and un-muting players, the cursor can be out of sync with who gets muted.
When pitting during an online game, the windscreen tear off doesnt work.
The car should not go in to reverse gear now unless it is stationary.
Xbox 360 - Race Invites stop working under certain conditions.
After leaving a lobby and then selecting Quick Race the game can sometimes soft lock.
Veto track shows incorrect amount of players in the lobby.
Online Sometimes players can be racing on a different track to others in the game due to a veto issue.
Online, cars sometimes dont appear in the Proximity Radar.
Changing Race Pins stopped working with the 2011 Season Update DLC.
PS3 Online, the game will not start until all paint scheme data has been transferred to all players. When the lobby count reaches zero, the game informs the players this is happening using the lobby status message next to the lobby count.
Improvements
A.I. Bunching up and brake checking, which can result in collisions between the A.I. cars, has been improved.
Lobby counter will no longer add time whenever a player joins the lobby.
When searching for an online game, the status text reads Loading. There are now three different states Searching, Joining and Creating.
Quick Race default race length setting changed from 2% to 5%.

Late to the party here I know!
As a fair newcomer to NASCAR, started getting into it last season and this season is the first time I will be watching a full season, I figured I would buy this game and give it a go. Having enjoyed NR2003 for a number of weeks I fancied a more modern interpretation on the game. Checked Amazon.co.uk and found a UK seller with it, £30 shipped, ordered yesterday morning, arrived today.
Havn't had a go yet but I am looking forward to it very much.

Just finished round 1 of my career using the 2010 season set, finished 13th at Daytona after starting 15th, had been as low as 30th and as high as 7th at various points. Really great fun indeed, intense and exciting to play!
Doing 20% races with all assists off apart from a lick of "stagger assist".

I was in the US for work last week and took the opportunity to pick this one up 
I must say that I got more than I expected and the game works really well with my DFGT. I put on the steering assist at first, because I thought the stagger would feel weird. But after trying some races without it, I must say that it doesn't really bother me that much, it feels fine. Just a tiny notch of assist needed on some of the shorter ovals.
There's just an issue for me on the AutoClub Speedway. On all tracks I've raced on so far, the default setup works great for me, except on this one. I'm suffering of too much understeer compared to the AI cars who just blast away from me on this track.
As I don't know anything about how to tune a NASCAR car, does anyone have a proper setup for me for this track?

Probably will pick it up tomorrow considering how cheap it is. Couple of questions...
- Is it really that easy? Does it not even put a fight on the highest difficulties with all possible driving aids etc. turned off?
- How does the feel of the car compare to the NASCAR's in GT5?
- Is it any good?

Read reviews, then decide if it's worth your money. I can't even afford to buy a loaf of bread until Friday. So, I wouldn't be buying it.
