Surprised there isn't a thread on this already.
There is finally a for-reals-no-take-backs hard firm for-sure release date now of 11/24/10. As in, stores now are already receiving shipments by the truckload to get in grubber little customer hands next week.

Anyone else super hyped for this? I've been following the hysteria in detail the past couple weeks and am totally pumped for this game. I've always been a fan of racing karts, so I'm sure I will take advantage of that and the NASCAR modes.

PSN tag is rickscarf if you want to add me for online racing. I tried out a wheel but don't have the right furniture configuration to use it comfortably so I won't be buying one I don't think.
