    Nope, that's it. Unfortunately it's all or nothing with them.

I'd love to be able to take the Cup cars to Iowa, or to Mid-Ohio or Canadian Tire, etc. etc.

        Great idea. Mosport (Canadian Tire) is such a mighty, fast, flowing, big balls track. One of the best circuits in North America that nobody in the U.S. knows.

          Seems you really need to get out of the default setting if you want to qualify better. I made a few changes based on a youtube video I watched (wasn't even the same track) and was able to get #15 spot, and then the #1 spot. Got my first career mode win on the last truck race of the season as a hotseat driver - and that turned into a 4 star team contract offer.

          Do miss the stability control, though. I'm a menace out there.

          Question: If you accept a ride with another car, say the #22, instead of your custom car - can you switch to your custom during the season (thus basically being able to race with your custom or the #22)? I mean, I figure the car number would be different... but it would be nice to drive the company's car and my own design.

            While you're at it, could you see if they could make it so we can cycle through the qualifying/race results manually? I hate that auto-cycle thing because I can't scan fast enough to read it and it's gonna mess me up with recording who got the win/top 5/top 10.

              Been very interested in getting this after watching some videos and reading some things about this game online. I wasn't impressed at all with the first game, but this seems like an improvement. Doesn't seem perfect and definitely could use some improvements that will hopefully be in the future games, but it looks fun and that's all that matters to me. I'm not a 'sim' racer or anything, I just want something fun that I can race on for an hour or two. Might try to stop by Walmart the next few days/the weekend and pick it up if they have it, I'll report what I think when I get it and can play a few races!

                NH2 is A million times better than the first game if you love Nascar and enjoy a fun racing game that works great on a pad and is loads of fun then do yourself a favour and grab it you even get a $50 nascar race ticket with purchase so seriously i don't think you can go wrong picking this game up

                    Any ways to do full season in split-screen local multiplayer or is it just for quick races ?

                        One thing that is annoying me so far is having to do the Hot Seat races. I wish I could turn them down, wait for ones at tracks I like, or just not do them until I have had a full season in the series I am in. Maybe I am missing where to do this, but I really dont want to do xfinity races until the end of the year.

                          I'm pretty sure I ready that you can't decline a Hot Seat race, and I agree that's annoying, as I'd prefer to have a little more control of my career.

                          Now that the patch has dropped on XB1, I'm planning on getting a career started soon.

                            The reason you can't skip the hot seat races is that's the only way you can move up to the higher division. If you satisfy their race requirement (finish top 22), they end up offering you a contract the next season.

                                Yes, been playing fine with a controller. Have had to turn stability assists on to stop from spinning out, but it still plays great
