The graphics are the strongest aspect going for this NASCAR 2011 game, as it provides thrilling races and perfect sound and on-track experiences. Everything else gets stuck in neutral. The online space is marred with glitches; offline, AI drives like it's in a demolition derby (even during pit stops); in-game alerts from speed to qualifying times are routinely broken.


RATING E for Everyone
