Gameplay
NASCAR's top three driving series are available for play in NASCAR 08: The Craftsman Truck Series, the National Series and the NEXTEL Cup. Drivers all compete with NASCAR's Car of Tomorrow, the new vehicle implemented by the league. The structure of the game is aligned with the structure of the league; drivers go onto different tracks throughout the nation competing in events.Modifications:
Among the changes and omissions in the game:- Drivers: Some notable NASCAR drivers are not in the game. They include Ward Burton, Jeremy Mayfield, Mike Bliss, Johnny Sauter, Kenny Wallace and Carl Edwards. Kyle Busch is in the North American version of the game, but not the International version. Edwards is not in the game because he has a contract agreement with Excalibur Electronics.
- Sponsors: As with past NASCAR video games, alcohol sponsors do not appear in the game. The Busch Series was been renamed the NASCAR National Series. Any alcohol decals on the vehicles were replaced by the team name, driver name or secondary sponsor.
