Has anyone gotten the Nascar game yet?  If so could they or anyone else answer
these questions about it?  

1)  Does the car drive exactly like it does in the demo?

2)  Is the fatal "one line" flaw in the tri-oval at Talladega fixed?

3)  How many cars are allowed to race in one race?   i.e. F1GP only allows
    26 cars at once.  Is nascar realistic in allowing 40 or 42 cars (30 would
    do) just like in real life?

4)  Just how many real drivers are included and is Earnhardt, Irvan, Wallace,
    and  Martin included?

Thanks in advance for any replies!!

I think the real thing is MUCH harder to drive.

what flaw is that, talladega is a fun track.   The opponents DO
generally stick to one line until you get real close, but isnt
that normal?

38 i think

all of the above, and many more.   I am unsure of earnhardt though, is he
still racing?

no prob, go out and support papyrus, it's a winner

Not at all. Talladega looks much better, and it's more difficult to
drive...

yes..
Yes. You can have 40 cars in a race.

Most of the big names, but no Earnhardt. Irvan, Martin, and Wallace
are all there, though.

Uuum....F1GP is a Formula One Simulator,   In Formula One, 26 cars is as
"Realistic" as you can get.

And in NASCAR 40 cars is possible, while in IndyCar the max is 33 (I think).
Just think about Indianapolis: 11 rows of 3.
