Eutechnyx has just revealed a teaser trailer for the upcoming patch and DLC for NASCAR the Game 2011 on PS3 and Xbox 360. The teaser shows off the following requested features: cautions, damage, two car tangos, side-by-side racing, Daytona (repaved), Charlotte MegaVision, and the DLC cars.

The most recent status update was given today on Facebook from Eutechnyx to fans:

“We’re waiting to hear back from Activision QA tomorrow on the status of the 360 patch submission, hopefully I’ll be able to give you all the good news that you’ve been waiting for. The PS3 is roughly 1 week behind the 360 patch.”

That’s good news for PS3 fans who were worried that the month-long online failures with PSN would significantly dampen their update.

Finally, fans of NASCAR The Game 2011 get to see Eutechnyx’s work in action:

After many years with EA Sports, the official NASCAR Sprint Cup licenses has been shifted to the British developers. NASCAR The Game 2011 includes two full seasons of Sprint Cup racing action, the title ships with the 2010 season and offers 2011 season liveries, body styles and the new Kentucky Speedway via post-release download.

Unfortunately, NASCAR The Game 2011 is not sold in Europe so interested buyers have to import the title that is available both for Microsoft Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3. Below are two gameplay videos, showing both oval racing at Michigan and road-course action at Watkins Glen.

The folks over at Eutechnyx and Activision have been busy putting together content to release forNASCAR The Game 2011.

We just heard about Richard Towler joining the team and now they’ve released a new video that shows off the pit stops in the game. I rather enjoy the segment showcasing the motion-capture of the pit stop, they look quite akin to ninjas. I must say I don’t buy Ty Norris’ enthusiasm over describing its realism. But the capture does look good.

The real Daytona 500 hits the world this weekend and to celebrate the iconic NASCAR experience, Eutechnyx and Activision have released a new trailer showcasing NASCAR The Game 2011’s take on the annual racing event.

The pack-racing is in full effect and it definitely plays like a highlight reel. RSC should get some hands-on time with this title before its release on March 29th, so we’ll let you know how it feels to drive.

For now enjoy some virtual Daytona 500:

iRacing’s NASCAR champ, Richard Towler, has just signed on to work directly with Eutechnyx on the upcoming NASCAR The Game 2011.

While on one hand his joining the team is a bit late, Towler’s “initial work includes finalizing the car set-ups, handling and fun-factor.”

A lot of titles bring on additional workers with real know-how to fine-tune games. While Towler isn’t a professional NASCAR driver, he did (virtually) beat out Dale Earnhardt, Jr. for his title.

Eutechnyx CEO Brian Jobling says that by having Towler work for the company full-time, he can “guarantee a realistic racing game architecture and use his vast experience of racing games to ensure appeal for the casual player too.”

Towler’s own words on the situation are: “I’m delighted to join a development team with such a strong pedigree in the racing genre. As a gamer myself, it feels great to be able influence the final polish and to help tune this game to make sure it is the best and most fun NASCAR ever created. Plus, I’m now a key part of the design team for all Eutechnyx games moving forward.”

Eutechnyx has released a new preview video of their upcoming NASCAR The Game 2011, showing us footage of a NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Pocono.

The video includes footage of the pre-race ceremonies and comes with commentary and various camera angles as we follow the #42 Target Chevrolet of Juan Pablo Montoya fighting his way through the field.

Developed by Eutechnyx & published by Activision, NASCAR The Game 2011 will include the 2010 & 2011 (post-release download) NASCAR Sprint Cup seasons. Features include a very detailed damage model, career mode & 16-player multiplayer mode. The title will be available for the Playstation 3, Xbox 360 & Nintendo Wii starting March 29.
