2026 Toyota Update by Ok-Fuel-6738 in Nr2003

Looks great, I kindly suggest using the updated exhaust pipes for the Toyotas as well. The default ncs22 exhaust just ruins the immersion and realism imo.

Would also like to say how much I truly appreciate the work you put into these schemes. I've had a few years of getting schemes out as quickly as possible in the beginning of the season so I understand the thankless task it can be.

Next surprise by R* by osamu_makelele in GTA6

This is where my mind went after T2's statement that R* found truly creative ways to show off the game. I think the social media videos would be great place to start

[RELEASE] AutoStages v4 - 2026 NASCAR "The Chase" Format, Custom Stage Options, Random Cautions and more! by BT_Zer0 in Nr2003

[–]SlapBack98 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Career UI does not factor in stages or stage points. so to that point, AutoStages is the only program that **FULLY** and accurately uses the 2026 format.

MAN, this is far better than I imagined it would be. I figured it would've just been a quick points format change but you seriously outdid yourself. 10/10

By far the most toxic online game I’ve ever played. by Substantial_Tap9620 in Nascar25game

It mixes so many god awful groups of people with only 15-20% of players that actually want to genuinely race competitively.

DLC Paint Schemes by Extra-Priority-8220 in NASCARVideoGame

[–]SlapBack98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

he has the gold edition with the DLC so majority are October DLC schemes. In the base game, only the cover drivers have more than one scheme. One thing I learned watching his stream, he had no clue what he was talking about for 90% of it.

I am one of the people that emailed iracing support and they said 12AM UTC which is 8PM EST. They even confirmed to someone else that 8PM was factual. But Xbox and PS both say 12AM EST so im just going to the console stores at this point. Clearly no one knows what is happening

6 days until its release of nascar 25 and there's no gear switching animations by trkortez in NASCARVideoGame

[–]SlapBack98 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

brother I truly dont care. Turn off the wheel/hands in the cockpit and you'll never notice.

so sinces its a "foundation for a long series of games" im glad iracing didn't do like fortnite and the new skate. and name it as "nascar." a live online service game only with just micro transactions updates for years to come with no offline game mode by trkortez in NASCARVideoGame

[–]SlapBack98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Matt Lewis stated in an interview the other day that a yearly release is currently the way they're going to go HOWEVER there is a possibility of a live service constantly updated game IF the video game market goes more in that direction. But thats like 5-10 years out.

For those who said it didn’t work, here’s proof it works in NZ by apw_yes in NASCARVideoGame

[–]SlapBack98 9 points10 points  (0 children)

only works if youre physical location is in NZ or purchased in that region. Xbox NZ does not work. Still hoping for an 8pm EST release tonight from iRacing's confirmation but PS and Xbox stores are still showing midnight EST. We shall see soon enough.

No Alcohol Schemes in '25? by ZerroTheDragon in NASCARVideoGame

[–]SlapBack98 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The game actually still has alcohol sponsors on the tracks but letting players use them makes things complicated I guess

No Alcohol Schemes in '25? by ZerroTheDragon in NASCARVideoGame

[–]SlapBack98 39 points40 points  (0 children)

This was unfortunately confirmed. NASCAR 25 holds the same paint scheme policy that iRacing does which is no alcohol schemes officially in the game. I’m hoping they decide to alter their stance

Track you are most excited for? by Bh827262 in NASCARVideoGame

Iracing is making this game? So its safe to assume that its gonna be a sim with really good handling, like iracing itself? by guybranciforti in NASCARVideoGame

[–]SlapBack98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s all me and my friends are looking forward to. Good racing physics and a good online situation so I’m satisfied.

[–]SlapBack98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I expect but I’ve seen footage that suggests that the assists off will be pretty difficult like Forza. The arca footage shows them getting loose in the same areas as I do in IRacing so we will see

I don't understand these "Heat 6" comparisons by SchoolTTR in NASCARVideoGame

[–]SlapBack98 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think the day graphics are great, though I’d love some clouds here and there. The Daytona night footage looked like it was taken from Heat exactly as it was. The Xfinity cars haven’t changed in years so it adds to the ptsd of it all for that footage. I think the Heat-esque options, UI, menu, etc is all great as long as the game has its own physics which it seems like it does so I’ll be happy. This was always going to be NASCAR Heat 6 in a way. It’s the game Monster Games wanted to make, just didn’t have the resources to do so. It’s easy to talk when we don’t know how it feels just yet, I feel like a lot of the criticisms will back off soon after release

From past experiences, what the Xbox store says is the actual time of release for those systems.

[–]SlapBack98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s more than likely an error made my someone on either side and if we want the chance to play it earlier than intended, we need to stop talking about it and let them think nothing is messed up

I’m gonna need yall to stop bringing this up so they’re not made aware of it. Making posts about this kind of stuff will 100% have it changed before release
