| Customer Reviews: Fun game, enjoyed it so far June 27, 2010 A. Brown (ASHEBORO, NC, US) The description of the game is a little misleading, but has some improvements over the NASCAR 08 game. Very similar to 08 for the playstation 2.
This game is great! June 25, 2010 Christopher I received Nascar 2009 very quickly, even with the holiday upon us. This game is great and I will order through Amazon.com again.
nascar 09 April 12, 2010 K. B. Peterson (Portland, OR. USA) The biggest problem I have with this game, is that there is no default, for any of your car set up. if you get it wrong, to bad. The other, is they made it TO complicated, with no help in how to fix your car, if you get it wrong.
Overall, it's ok. And If you REALLY like to tinker with suspension, shocks, tire pressure, weight transfer, wedge, spring rate, grill tape, down force, and a lot more, then this is your game. If you just want to drive, and have fun, with only a little tinkering. Then stay away.
AI drivers cheat October 26, 2009 Rodney M. Baker 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Overall an enjoyable game for those who like stock car racing. Lots of things here are wanting. 1) You'll find with experience that the best way to win is to slow down. The AI drivers are set up so that the last place car will beat your lap times consistently. 2) Pit stops are stupidly slow. Average is about 18 seconds in this game. In reality a pit stop is slow at 15 seconds. You won't find yourself leaving the pits in first place, ever. 3) AI drivers will mow you down if you don't give way. Your best bet is to take the lead and avoid getting within a second of any other cars on the track. If they get to you, they will crash you. 4) Adjustable settings for car performance? Bull! With practice you will soon discover that gear ratio changes don't work. Gear set for Talladega allows speeds in the 200s. Same gears on Martinsville top out at 120. So enjoy the game but don't expect it to mirror anything in the real world.
