Are there a lot of sponsor options in the paint booth?

Thanks for all this man. I know it's gotta be aggravating trying to play the game and have to keep doing all of this for us.

This is what I was talking about, that during the actual wreck itself, it's hardly noticeable, but afterwords...the body damage can look catastrophic. Here is another one....of Jeff Gordon Flying through the air after a head-on collision at DEGA...you would expect to see more damage! and here is another one of the head-on......as you can see the nose has limited at best, zero at worst damage.

frame rate concern so they toned down damage

I wish I had not read this thread as it has me more excited then I already was.

The question I would like to know the answer to is how long is career mode? If it is multiple seasons, do drivers just not age at all? Is, for example, jeff Gordon still going to be racing if I play 15 seasons?

There seems to be a decent amount of good sponsors that people will recognize easily. There also may be more that can be unlocked...not sure yet.

Not a problem...it's not aggrevating at all. I am just trying to get some REAL impressions, not 1st impressions. It takes time...and so far everyone has been really cool about being patient. I need to take a small hour break or so.....but then I am going to try and run 25% race with the conroller on harder difficulty, as I know a lot of peole will be playing this with a controller
