The speedway races are boring as hell, but that was a given. At least, there's a bit of challenge and using draft properly, one can win races. The races on circuits, though, are an absolute catastrophe. The physics is ridiculous - you have stock cars going 250kph in sharp turns and all the cars are going crazy fast... The lead car is almost impossible to catch up with because all the cars are going at the same speed and they all go around corners like crazy. The cars and the physics developed for these cars do not apply to circuit races. Moreover, nobody but morons would consider doing the last 4 series because you have to pay 750 gold for one car and you can only get back a fraction of your investment even if you complete the series at 100%. Isn't the concept of racing getting back your investment plus a little? FM thought that nascar fans can't do additions properly (they were probably right...) and would never notice that each of these 4 races would cost at least 50USD of real money. All in all, the nascar addition was a very bad idea. NASCAR paid FM a bit of money for product placement, hoping that fans will follow. Mullet-sporting morons with less than 3 neurons love watching a million left turns on TV, in their trailer sittin on the plastic-covered sofa with their cousin/wife, downing mickey's big mouth at 10am - these people are probably the target market for the nascar addition to rr3. for the rest of us, normal people with a functioning brain, the nascar part of the game is a waste of time.
