Whoa! That crash looked awesome.

Cars don't often flip like that on a short track. Talladega, maybe. Already has the appearance of an arcade racer, sorry to say.

Keep in mind, one of Eutechnyx's goal(s) is to provide and showcase realistic damage and crash simulation. This is obviously not in-game footage, but rather just an attempt to get people excited about the crash sequences being a priority. I would hold off judgement( good or bad ) for actual in game footage of the racing, physics, and crashes, before tossing it into a sim or arcade description.

It would've been better if they showcased the crash at Talladega, Daytona, or any superspeedway.

I understand what they were doing, but it just doesn't look right at Dover, ya know?

While I'm looking forward to the game and what I'm hearing so far is very encouraging, I never get trailers like that. If it's not gameplay footage, or at least something from the game engine, they may as well just show video of a real race.
Same with nearly every tv ad for games with "not gameplay footage" at the bottom. Just show Gears of War 2 or RDR because they look bloody amazing!

I see what you're saying Blue, but personally I'm not a fan of these kind of trailers. Still looking forward to the game though!

Also, does he say "OH FUDGE!" when he gets taken out? hahaha

I have to agree. It just seems like crashing is going to be the main point of the game. Doesn't mean the game won't be fun.

Edit, people complain F1 2010 is arcady, but I have managed to overlook that just to have fun. I'm no sim expert, so I can't ever say whether it is or isn't.

At this point, it's on rental first and take it from there.

Im on board with you guys about trailers. I never understood the purpose of one, unless it actually showcases actual in-game footage( at least some).
