Sprint

Direct tv
Moog
USG
Jegs

Holley

Sunoco

Pretty much all of the contingencies....

Maybe I missed it, but in single player, can you set how many cars you want on the track, and how many laps you want to run? Thanks again for the info.

I think it drives more like NASCAR 2003, then DTD. It's not far away from DTD though. If you jump out of the groove, you don't go flying towards the wall(NASCAR 09) You have a really good handle on your car, but it can all be adjusted in the difficulty. No 1 difficulty setting really drives like the other....which is a good thing.

I actually tried the first 3 levels of difficulty using the controller, and I was able to control my very well in all 3 phases. They have a very good job of making the game accessible to wheel and controller users.

Ok..spent about 2 hours with paint booth today. For thos who are familiar with the Forza booth, you will have no issues at all creating a car. Its a layer system, just like in Forza. I was able to create Ryan Newmans old Alltel 12 car(well, half of it) in about 30 minutes, and it looked pretty damn good. Its all about manipulating the figures and icon's the are in-game.

I did not see, however, any manufaturer's decals or logo's. You can easily create a Toyota logo, Ford, Chevy...etc...etc. It aslo does not give you the option to choose between different cars.

From my understand Grimm...created skins cannot be shard between people. I see no option to do so....but that doesnt mean it's not an option. I just have not seen a way to do it, and have only ever heard that sharing a skin was not going to be in this years edition.

Hopefully I am wrong though.
