New GT5 Trailer Showcases NASCAR Mode
Gran Turismo fans were blown away last year when the patented NASCAR stock car came racing across the screen during the jaw dropping Gran Turismo 5 trailer at Sony’s E3 press conference. Little information about NASCAR’s inclusion in the most popular racing series in videogames has been released until now.
Thanks to the fine folks over at Motor Trend, who were lucky enough to get hands-on of an ‘advanced demo’ of GT5′s NASCAR mode, we now have this snazzy trailer that describes the process a bit about and how both parties hope that it will help introduce new fans to the racing league and the gaming series.
Worst part about the video? That Yamauchi-San is a Dale Earnhardt Jr. fan now. Ugh! Why not Jimmie Johnson..ya know, someone who isn’t riding his dad’s coattails around. Just saying.
Look for NASCAR, WRC, 1,000 cars and 80 different varations when Gran Turismo 5 hits exclusively on the PS3..sometime this year.

I really wish they’d drop the nascar and keep it with WRC and the Forumla racing league. WRC is awesome tho I cant wait to do some rally’s.

Nascar? That’s the worst event in racing history, and i don’t care if anyone disagrees. Driving around anti-clockwise on an oval track is rubbish! It’s only because the US can’t make cars that go round corners tho i suppose lol
It’s gonna be one part of that game that i will ignore and avoid like a skunk with bad breath (‘cos that would be double smelly)!
I can’t wait to play the Nascar part of this game. I am still pissed that EA isn’t releasing Nascar 10.
Haha I like how “sometime” is in Italics
Earnhardt’s in the wall!!! I think it was Rusty!
God that never get sold.
On a serious note, while I’ve never been a fan of NASCAR, I welcome Kaz’s take on pretty much anything. It may not appeal to me, but I know it will certainly appeal to a legion of NASCAR fans, stateside. Similarly, to how WRC and F1′s presence appeals to myself. Just means that it’ll sell that many more copies, get it that much more popular, and encourage PD and Kaz to continue working at their OWN pace.

*******You do realize that Toyota and Honda are a HUGE part of Nascar now, right? Or are you simply talking out of your ass? My bet it on the latter.
Like nascar or not, you have to be impressed that polyphony was able to tack on to GT5 what used to be an annual series from other publishers. Here’s hoping they make it cool with real schedules/weather/updates/ etc… maddenesque. Oh, and the only REAL reason to watch Nascar… the crashes. I remember always driving backwards whenever a new game came out to test the crash physics. ahh memories.
not a big nascar guy, but it looks like a lot of fun to add in to an already great game. Some
will buy the game just for the top notch nascar representation.
there’s room for everyone in this game
