Let’s admit. NASCAR 2011 graphics are way better than NASCAR heat 5.

[@TangoRango19]

So fucking true

[@Waddle_Dee_With_Internet]

What's so surprising is that NASCAR 2011 runs better on some weak PC's which Heat 4 lags as hell.

[@isjustmichael]

thats just...wrong

[@Ghost-of-Flint.810]

I would rather play this. Than the heat games. The heat ones are not that good compared to these older games like NASCAR inside line

[@papi2735]

[@no-yj2cf]

Eutechnyx (spelling), has the best looking NASCAR games and its not even close. Play one of these bad boys on the RPCS3 emulator in 4K and it'll look newer than the NASCAR Heat games

I remember having loads of fun on this game. Mostly going to Bristol for a race and turning off cautions then just making the field do a huge pile up. And the only track I couldn't win at was Daytona. Even though I always qualified on the pole and ran the races as short as possible, 2nd and 3rd place would always pass me. That track just did not work right in this game

[@trevorspinelli9889]

Omg. I would do that too! All the time. Every car would pile up in the middle of Bristol and I would just go around or ram into all of them😂

[@dariusreynolds7538]

I remember being so hyped because of the teaser trailer!

The only night race in this game is Darlington, everything else is at sunset. There was DLC for actual night races, but that hasn't been available since God knows when.

I love how it's mid race and Biffle just decides to shift into that Talladega Nights extra gear to start passing cars like they aren't even there.

I played this game around when it came out on 360. It was pretty bad. Lol online cars would just fall through the track.

It was so buggy like headlights front part would not show up and I can’t change manufacture sadly

[@syrules]

I like to play old games on my PS3 and it's absolute garbage. Getting illegal pit entries because I got spun out because of a phantom touch into pit road is infuriating

Here is a paint scheme suggestion for the NASCAR Heat 5 career mode: Base Paint: lime green (Seventh color from the top in the normal colors) Stripe One: Black Stripe Two: Bright Red (Seventh color from the bottom in the normal colors, starting from white) Stripe Three: Black Number: White or Yellow Wheels: Lime Green

[@ZACLAND21]

I remember when the Teaser Trailer came out for this game and the hype was crazy

[@Johnny8242]

Great video. I remember going to Wal-Mart at midnight to get this game I was so excited to play it. I remember how bad this game was online with cars starting flipping over etc before the green flag. I also have a Kevin Conway story. In 2002 I did the Petty Driving Experience ride along at Charlotte Motor Speedway and he was my driver. He was a really nice guy and said he was hoping to eventually made it to the cup series and was hoping to race ARCA that season. I know his career didn't pan out but I always tried to root for the guy.

[@theperson2796]

Played this game so much when it came out that my Wii U would freeze

[@MichaelSuperbacker]

12:00 I watched nascar from the late 80s to the early 2000s

The trailer at the start looked so realistic

[@plasmadrone3123]

Eutechnyx games are just so jank with the caution system. I picked up NASCAR 15 this June, and that game is inconsistent with caution. the most consistent trigger for it is that the caution will only be thrown out if a car gets spun sideways at least 90 degrees. so if there's a pileup, or someone gets spun into the infield grass but noone's turned 90 degrees, well, no caution.

[@Coastfog]

I can't not respect the way Kevin Conway simultaneously owns the commercial and not takes it serious at all.

[@Thewhisperingcrow]

12:36 He claims he can’t see anything over the car. That’s how it’s supposed to look. The driver drafting behind another car can’t see what’s in front of the car that’s in front of him. SMH

[@acenace24]

I’ll give them credit as this was their first installation. Look at Heat Evolution if you want to see awful first attempts lol.

[@superyeet2433]

I have this game on the Wii, and in my personal opinion the driving is significantly better than NASCAR HEAT lmao

[@nascarlover2016]

[@BOB-id1sl]

Its a great game when u have the controls set to your liking, and when u turn off hud.

[@JasonNation72]

Fun fact: Kevin Conway, despite being a horrible NASCAR driver, wound up on Shark Tank earlier this month plugging his thermal phone covers and had two sharks wanting his business. So what Kevin lacked on the track, he made up for being an effective entrepreneur.
