I hope they captured this in arcade mode. Otherwise, it didn't look good at all.

It probably is arcade mode, I think all of the preview stuff has been so far.

Still, I'm underwhelmed. A modern-day racer has to complete with the Forzas and Driveclubs of the world, and visually this doesn't come close. Maybe if it's running at a locked 60 fps, but if not...

Also, I really want to know if any of the ETX assets are being used or if this is a rebuild from the ground up. I'm pretty sure DM acquired those assets, and some of this looks very familiar. I do realize this is probably a very small and very passionate dev team, so I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Someone on DMR's official Twitter account said it runs at 30 fps sadly.

They have stated that it has been built from the ground up. Nothing from ETX was used, at least from what I have read or seen.

As for the visuals, I could care less personally. The reason for that is that if the game plays and races like it should then I can forgive the lack of better graphics. All I want is a solid first game that can be built upon in later installments to the series. Get it right first and then add the extras and other stuff.

How many drivers are in the game? Just 43, or more?

At this point, graphics are the least of my concerns regarding a NASCAR game. I desperately just want a NASCAR game that gets all the basics right and doesn't possess all the bugs of the last several games.
