8/10.

The GWC ruined that great race, lame finish. It was awesome until lap 197.

Gave it a 7. Bit of a lull towards the middle after green flag pit stops that didn't end until a "debris" caution.

Three wide madness for the lead was insane and almost unnerving to watch. Was not sitting down the entire time.

Finish, obviously not ideal.

It was okay. I won't remember it. People on here getting upset was entertaining.

10/10 up to the GWC

-5/10 for the blue balls finish

5/10, so much potential just pissed away at the end.

Agreeing with codename leaves me feeling so dirty.

8. Disappointing finish notwithstanding, this is a NASCAR race that is entertaining flag-to-flag.

You ever heard the stereotype about IGN giving mediocre or "meh" videos games a 7/10 instead of a 5/10?





Yeah I was worried that joke would go over a lot of peoples heads. :slaphead:

I haven't visited IGN regularly in 15 years, so yeah, went over my head.

I feel bad rating it as low as 5, but the finish really did ruin what had been a fantastic race. And Allgaier... Thank you.

9/10. I detract only 1 point for the finish of an otherwise terrific race. Everyone bitches and whines for the old days. Well, we got it yesterday. That was some old school style plate racing where the cream rose to the top and stayed there (for the most part.) Green flag stops made it interesting and it got a little single file only to erupt back into a two lane battle 5 laps later. 3 x 3 for the lead and not wiping the field out with some unbelievable driving.

If you weren't pleased with the race (albeit the yellow flag finish which I understand) then you can't be pleased.
