    BTW...for the poster mentioning getting a wheel. I know not everyone is a fan of it, but I saw Amazon.com has the MS wireless wheel for $80 today.
    Thanks, I'll have to check out that wheel. Sometimes the wheel/pedals has a lag that ruins the feel

      Must be the demo but I'm finding it to be really easy to outpower the field and win regardless of the setting (Pro driving/Legend Skill, every assist is off). Anyone else?

        What do you have the AI skill set to?

          The 2 things I've set have been the driving style to Pro and the difficulty is Legend, no assists

          Driving Style: Pro
          Gameplay Level: Legend

          I haven't touched the car setup either, the engine alone is a beast and pulls away fast. I don't race dirty or anything

          Just noticed that rubber pieces fling over the windshield if you get up close to someone

            I don't if you know or not, but the AI has a setting too. Easy, Normal, and Hard.
            I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

              There is a place in the race setup to set the AI to "hard" which it appears isn't one of the settings you mentioned earlier. Legend on refers to the user controlled car setup.

                  on a side note, with the exception of the video preview referenced on this board, I don't see many previews of this game at all. Anyone have a link to any good previews?

                  Also, where does everyone go to get their setups (if you aren't familiar with that stuff)? I am new to Nascar racing but this demo has me extremely curious and I will be purchasing it on the first day. But would like to know where I can find setups.

                  Also does anyone know if this game will have anything similar to Formula One CE where you can run some practice runs and it will help you make the correct setup changes? Or are you on your own with this one?

                    I would (dont have any atm) look up Nascar Racing 2003 (NR2003) for sites that have forums about car setups for tracks. That game had a strong following up until support was cancelled

                      I don't have a wheel nor do I plan on getting one. In the perfect world I would get one, but I don't have any room for it in reality, plus I really don't want to fork out the cash. It seems to drive pretty nicely with the controller anyways.

                        You edit the AI under Race Settings.

                          Dont blame ya, the Logitech one I saw earlier on amazon was in the $250 range..I even saw a bucket race seat for sim racing and wasn't cheap.

                            If the game is as good as the demo, this is a must buy.

                            This game is insane amount of pressure.

                              Why is it that when I wreck I am placed at the end of the field, regardless of my current position? I don't pit, but yet after it goes back to green there I am at the back.

                                If you cause the caution, you go to the tail end of the longest line.
