    Great driving physics, graphics, and online especially if you're coming from Heat 3. Not much has changed from Heat 4 but if you're a setup builder there's the new addition of a test mode which is really nice to have. Also this Diego Alvarado guy in the eNASCAR cup series selection has the coolest car in the game.

    I haven't played a NASCAR video game in close to 15 years based on all of the negative reviews for all of the games that have come out since. This game is fun if you set your expectations low enough. It's fun enough to play with a controller. The physics definitely isn't perfect and there are a lot of features that aren't there (like seeing how many seconds ahead/behind you are from other drivers) but this game is fun enough to veg out on for a few hours. The difficulty levels can be customized to make it a challenge for anyone or to make races winnable for everyone, so once you find settings that work for you, it's a game probably worth playing for racing fans. If you want a simulation experience, play iRacing on the PC instead.

    Not a bad racing game if you don't take it to seriously. Fun to just race and not worry about the consequences! Great for younger kids that enjoy this type of gaming!

    It’s a lot of fun to play with another person. The dirt tracks are hard to race on. Same as other racing games I’ve played, I’m not a racing fanatic but just wanted a game to play with my friends.

    Fun game but definitely not a simulation. The force feedback is lazy. You don't feel bumps. Its more of the vibration sensation you get from a controller
