I grew up watching nascar, have been to several races. But really, it's not the same w/o Dale. And the way it is packaged for TV ruins it for me.

In this game, there is nothing wrong with NASCAR. Game play is different enough from the rest of the game to make NASCAR a "unique" experience - at least as unique as the repettivie nature of this game will allow. And is quite challenging when the BOTs get fast - makes it fun! Keeping Richmond and Daytona Speedway mostly exclusive to NASCAR makes owning at least one NASCAR worth while.

The real issue (for me, at least) is there is almost nothing about these 2019 NASCARs that differentes them from the previous ones. It doesn't bother me that the cars look similar or drive similar - i don't care about different sponsort and don't have any favorite driver. None of that is going to entice me, or keep me away.

What maters to me is the races where the cars are used - so the nail in the coffin is the different series (the "seasons") are virtually identical. I have a couple older NASCARs and don't feel a new one will add joy to my playing time.
