According to Dave, it should be within the first two weeks of January, and the PS3 and 360 should be getting it about the same time.

That's great news. I love this game and with the patch I should love it.

I do give leeway being only the second release in the Nascar foray. Saying that, here are the issues I have. Both in this years and last years, green flag pit stops are a guaranteed yellow flag. It seems like something that would have been found in testing. I feel they work too much on the graphics of the garage and extra game styles instead of focusing on the racing part of the game. I would be more than happy to have a so-so main menu and have the racing top-knotch. Not saying that the racing is over all badly done. They did a hell of a job with the graphics on the actually racing. Very realistic. Along the lines of the green pit stop yellows are the wrecks you are involved in. They cut way too short. If I am spinning in the infield, should have a chance to save it from either hitting the wall or sliding up the track. The wrecks need to finish themselves before the cut to caution. Not saying that so I can see more carnage, I am saying that because there is a chance of other cars getting involved or being able to dodge the wreck as it is happening. Give the option to go to yellow if players choose to, but leave the wreck go until the last car stops spinning, flipping, etc. Here is a wish list: give each driver ratings that you can see being implemented during the race. For example, Kurt Busch. I want to see him drive like a crazy by cutting people off, getting them loose in a turn, etc. Have some drivers blow engines more than others due to their driving style. Another example is Harry Gant form back in the day. The guy was a whiz at fuel economy. Have ratings for pit crew. Say one tire changer is faster than another. A Crew chief may make a drivers engine give more hp, but handling might go down. Have crew chiefs able to suggest changes during the race. It might not always be the correct change and make the chances of having bad/good changes dependent on a rating. Make it like other sport games that have Franchise mode. Let you be the owner of the team. Hire and fire who you want. Hire a driver if you don't want to drive. I play the Franchise mode in every sport game I play. I love having to hire/fire within a budget and having other teams get better or worse year to year. Just like real life, the more you win, the more you can spend. This would also have drivers, pit crewman changing teams. Wow, kind of went off on a rant. Sorry. Do not mean any of this in a negative light. Just stating my issues and "dreams" (for lack of a better word). Wish all well. Looking forward to the patch.

i have been asking that for years its sad when nascar 2004 and dirt to daytona are the only games worth playing for carrer mode just plain lasyness by the game companys

The problem is people keep buying the crap every year. A couple years ago I started skipping a year on games. MLB The Show, every 2 years, NBA 2K same thing, NCAA Football the same. In fact I think I have not bought a 2K game in 4 or 5 years. The point is people need to stop buying games every year and show them they are not going to buy half done games, or games filled with bugs. Take 2 years to make a game and get it right. In the end though it will never happen, and people will rush out and buy the next game the day it is released.

I totally agree with everything you said, but the companies see this logic as their profit margins cut in half. They would never do that, no matter how right it is. Capitalism at its best. Make cash, make cash, make cash. Quantity over quality.
