NASCAR 09
You bought the game at best buy. They made a special cover since elliot sadler drives the best buy car.
On mine I have both sadler and gordon because on mine you just flip the paper
You can flip the paper in the cover but the disk will have the best buy on it
For NASCAR 09 they made two alternate covers. Sadler on one side, when I bought mine the sadker side was up. Just take it out and flip it to gordon.

Not 4 ps2

Yes
It's all about timing and placement.
They dive down coming into turns, then drift out at the exits. I always found that staying high, letting off the throttle or even braking at the turn exits worked best for me.
The other cars will make at least a token effort to avoid you, just watch your spacing and speed and work your way through them all.
If I can do it, I'm sure you can too!
Be cool, "SHAKE AND BAKE" when you can, and don't hit anybody. -Answer by:GreywolfHunting

The pass car lic challenge is at orchard raceway for the cup car. you basical stay high. try to hit the wall or other cars
What I do is stay low and on the turns slow down go under the track for a short time and come up slowly and the cars will move out of your way

If you mean "How do I get to the second license test for Craftsman Trucks" the answer is you have to keep an eye on your levels in various driving skills. As they go up, your license availability goes up. So those skills become important.
They also improve the things you can do - and I've seen this before in EA driving games. Your controller inputs for one become less skittish, more smooth. The random percentage of a spinout is reduced, other things as well. Wonder why some of the other drivers are dogging you? That too is affected by one of those stats. The higher you build those skill levels, the easier it gets. There's only one drawback - as your skills rise, you need them to more and more.
Once you get up high enough you can't go back to earlier series. But when you have two or more series you are in going on you can really notice the difference in the lower series races....
Anyway, THAT I think, is what is happening. -Answer by:GreywolfHunting

A1: 

Go to sign contracts and quit your current contract ad go to find a different seris and sign a contract wih one of the other cars that is open for you to race in
A2: 

You have to have a specific license for each series.
Whelan is the basic one, and finishing well in a lot of races helps, BUT:
BUILD YOUR DRIVING SKILL LEVELS RELIGIOUSLY.
That riight there is the key. As your "driving skills" levels in all those stats increase - more license challenges come available, and they are the only way to move on to the next series up.
*"FRONT RUNNING" helps a lot, but "STRATEGY" is also very important. -Answer by:GreywolfHunting

No, there is no possible way to make a team
Is there a way to own a team in nascar09 example:hendrick motorsports
Nope. This year's version leaves out the ability to own any team, created or existing.
Cheat code OWNATEAM is the cheat codes menu :)
A1: 

Beat the set time
A2: 

Beat the average time of 37.9
Spin people out.
Once your first just pass them again
"HAR, HAR!"
Car damage is a problem with a lot of the later contracts, but if you use "INTIMIDATE" a lot, you don't have to wipe out the competition as much.
I also found "SHARE DRAFT" a good way to get to the front of the pack. You can always intimidate your "Buddy" later.
So the answer is intimidate as many as you can, but find a way to drive around the POKEY ones however you have to. I always liked the exits from the turns because most cars drift high and you can slide by inside them. -Answer by:GreywolfHunting

When the other cars pit for fuel and tyres stay out on track (if you have enough fuel) and lap them while they are in the pits once you have lapped them spin your car out and cause a yellow flag so you can pit under yellow and stay 1 lap ahead
What you do is make the race length at long or more and turn off the unlimited fuel and tire setting and don't pit until the last possible moment. O and if the lap 5 cars medal pops up you can exit the race and you will still get the medal.
There is no Daytona Infield
Put the race on full distance and turn unlimited fuel and tires to off,you should be able to eventually lap 5 cars. It is Phoenix infield lap 5 cars I am stuck on because when you get to lap 61 the A1 cars never pit and run out of fuel making it impossible to lap 5 cars,any Ideas?
No dont do that just put it in full length race and put in on rookie and stay close to the turns and just keep racing till you reach them
Go as fast as you can on the track and cut through the grass on the final turn BUT NOT THE SAND you'll either get gold or silver
Set race 2 full (100 %) race on the sand 43 cars stop on the final lap
lap 'em
lap 'em
A1: 

No only on season and single race.
A2: 

Yes (short season)
It happens when you start a new game
U cant only on xbox does that work
Go to where it says chase for the sprint cup or go to settings and hit videos
That part is only for xbox 360 not ps2
Q: 

Rating: 100%
How do you get the lap 5 cars Madlin on like 2 mile road courses. ex: Speedway Blvd.?
A1: 

First, make the race long enough (like 25% or more). Next, try to spin out someone at 2 or 3 different places during the first 2 laps. Also helps if you are on unlimited fuel & tires.
A1: 

EA Sports doesn't have a deal with those companies, so they can't use their LOGO's -Answer by:GreywolfHunting
In the chase for the cup mode. its your name.
-FN: Checkered LN: Flag
-FN: Checkered LN: Flag
Its in the career mode the name of the driver is where you put the cheat
You have to do the chase and put your cheat in for first nd last name.
Put it in as the driver name inthe carrer mode
You type the code as your name in career mode and the codes should work.
A1: 

Different tracks use different setups
There is no cheat code screen
I think you go on chase for the sprint cup series and when you create your driver type in the 1st word of the cheat in there and type 2nd word in last name and then press start and then go to race now and voila!
Thats in xbox360 version of the game
Turn the suggested line on and do your best to follow it
Upgrade your car
Its all in the car set up partner. tape your grill 100% lay your wing down to the lowest number, put a lil air pressure in your tires, reduce your fender flare to 0, set your car to speed not acceleration. hold on tight that car is a rocket. REMEMBER to take that tape off after qualifying or youll burn your motor up 3 or 4 laps into the race. and might as well put the rest back to where it was or just see if you can handle the car set up like that.
Depends on how well you do that lap
Get a faster lap time
Drive a fast lap! On oval circuits stick to the inside line and go flat out,on road courses slow down on sharp corners and accelerate out of them
Don't brake in the turns en less your at a recourse
Upgrade your car
It speed and skills
No
It will be in the game Grand Tusemo 5 only for the PS3.
Yes
For ps3 they are
Of course they are
Maybe but not by ea sports
Yes there making nascar11.
Instead of family play use pro play
If your in Chase for the sprint cup, get a lot of experience points and you will go slightly faster for every level. It speeds you up very slowly and if you want to be faster right away switch to pro play mode. -Answer by:austinaugust
Mash the gas
No
Yes
Both answers are right.. If you have one of the first ps3's out it will work(any ps2 game). But every ps3 since lacks the ability to do so
Only if you have the older version of ps3, the new ones don't take ps2 games
Only if you have an older ps3 on the new ones it does not work
Depends what model PS3 U hav, 80 gig works
A1: 

On the straight away go inside and outside on turns
A2: 

Just be patient and do not try to pass every one at once -Answer by:austinaugust
No only junior. But I suppose you could create Dale SR in paint booth. -Answer by:austinaugust
No but he is on 2005 game if you choose him as your favourite driver
No
No
No he is not on the game.he died in 2001 hes not in the game
Nope only on nascar 05 and nascar thunder 03 sorry
No beacuse has been dead a while
Only on NASCAR 06 and 05
No he is in 2003 if you do it right
A1: 

No
Try practicing and tune your car. figure outthe weaknesses
Well it depends on the track if it has sharp turns where you brake alot then make it a little more tight so your car wont slide as much, for ex: go to wedge it will probably set on 0.0 put it on like 1.5 or 2.0, then go to tire pressure and go to 30 so your tires will last longer. But the bad thing about that setup is you wont start as good but as the run goes on it gets better, but dont do that for qualifying do that for the race. you wont loose for that because your tires have grip. the bigger tracks just stay more loose as in negative wedge.. hope this hepls
On superspeedways lower your fender flare and shorter tracks raise it. its in the features guide.
A1: 

No
A2: 

No! its not 06
A1: 

Chaseplates are used to unlock features in the game. for example if you master bristol raceway you will unlock a plate that says pole position if it is enabled you will start in 1st every time you click start race (without qualifying) at that track. whatever the plate says you will unlock. to use them you press x button when plate is highlighted untill it says enabled. -Answer by:moskoman88

Okay how do enter the cheat for fantasy drivers. I went to my Chase for Cup menu and entered Checkered as my first name and Flag as my last name in my edit driver menu. Did I do this right because nothing happened. Is it all caps? I tried that also. How do you know if the cheat worked without having to go back and check does it notify you?
Question from: nascarfan(2)
A1:

A2:

A1: 

You need to get the gold medallion on talladega infield(If you already have,go to the Chase plates screen and if the phoenix infield plate says plate disabled press X.If that doesn't work,I don't know what to tell ya)
A2: 

Master feenex infield
A1: 

What I do is on the first turn into the infeild make a big crash then get out of there then go around the track once and you will see all the cars blocked up go through them and you will lap at least 5 cars
A1: 

Cheat code O ATeam
A1: 

Go to the race you want when you get there it will have a option for car setups go to that and it will have all that stuff
Upgrade your car.
Try nascar 08
mash the gas all the way around
mash the gas all the way around
Try this:turn autosave OFF, then schedule the challenge. if you fail then reset the PS2 or if you pass save the game and turn autosave ON
A1: 

There is no cheat code. all you do is go to chase for sprint cup and play until you race a charity event there. then you unlock it.
A1: 

I know Dale isn't on the game and Michael is on Xbox only. I know sad right?
