About: EA Sports NASCAR (series)

The EA Sports NASCAR series, alternately known as the NASCAR Thunder Series, was a series of NASCAR video games published by EA Sports.

After the kart racing game was released 2009, EA announced that the series would be discontinued due to budget cuts and the expiration of EA Sport’s contract with NASCAR.

Polyphony Digital has since bought the rights to develop official NASCAR cars and tracks in their simulation video game Gran Turismo 5, marking the end of the series under the EA Sports label.

Eutechnyx later acquired the license, starting the NASCAR The Game series with NASCAR The Game: 2011.
