NASCAR '14 Paint Booth: Bill Elliott #9 Dodge Intrepid

As a Bill Elliott fan, one of my favorite custom paint schemes to make in NASCAR games is the #9 Dodge from his resurgent days with Ray Evernham before stepping back and semi-retiring.

To compare the differences between the previous game -- NASCAR The Game: Inside Line and NASCAR '14, I have included comparison shots of my own custom schemes from similar camera angles. One key difference is the shape of the cars. 

The top pic is from NTG: IL, the second is from the new game.

I still need to add the UAW logo for the new game, but I think this shows the subtle differences you'll face while working in the new paint booth. You don't have control over the spoiler on plate tracks since it's non-standard from the rest of the game. The clear "shark-fin" running down the left side is an improvement. The new contours of the various cars make it harder in the new game to run throwback paint schemes.

Overall, however, these are minor changes. The games are fundamentally similar, both in appearance and tools.
