Nice way to honor the pit crews who must be sleeping very soundly tonight! haha

I hope that this game will be awesome, I already pre-ordered a few weeks ago.

Very impressive. It will be interesting to see how big the repertoire of animations are based on the various adjustments that can be made to the car.

It is a beautiful looking game, no doubt. Does look a bit odd though that you can only see your own pit crew. Saying that, I don't think NR2003 had multiple pit crews and it never bothered me.

The cars this year don't require catch-cans anymore. I wonder when the patch is released how the pitstops will react now.

Still cant drive into the pits? ugh.

I just hope they have a setting for auto pits. I love the animations and all that but I do not know a single driver who tells the crew exactly what to do. Just once I would like to see a racing game where the driver (you) only select things like pulling, pushing, running hot, rear end is lose, etc... and your pit chief decides what to do about your report. I know sometimes a driver may suggest taking a half a round out or dropping tire pressure but its usually just 'what' the car is doing.

You know what? In all the years I've played just about every Nascar game ever made, this idea never crossed my mind!

That's a helluva great suggestion!

That would be more realistic, wouldn't it!

I believe under green you will, however under caution this is automated.

True, but actually down in pit-road, the computer takes control of your car in both situations.

Thanks!

I just wish that a developer would latch onto it.
Hint!! Hint!!! Wink!! Nod!!
