Electronic Arts‘ EA Sports label has announced the only official NASCAR title to be launched in the Nintendo Wii—NASCAR Kart Racing. Players can take on one of 10 animated characters—or one of more than a dozen real-life NASCAR drivers—and compete in 24 challenging courses that span deserts, freeways, back roads, canyons, junkyards, and more, including areas surrounding the well-known NASCAR tracks at Talladega and Daytona, as well as the Dover International Speedway and Bristol Motor Speedway. Courses can be raced forward or backward, and as many as four players can compete against each other simultaneously in split-screen mode.
