Bill Elliott's NASCAR Challenge NES
Game Information
Bill Elliott's NASCAR Challenge is a simulation of the NASCAR Winston Cup circuit, and thus operates like a racing game. The gameplay action was always through an in-car perspective. Players could chose to run single races at each track or run for the season championship. The race distance was chosen by the player, which ranged from 10 miles to the realistic distance of 500 miles for the superspeedway races. In the MS-DOS version, the championship consisted of a visit to each of the eight tracks. In the NES and Game Boy versions, the season championship consisted of each of the four tracks run twice, for a total of eight races. Championship points were awarded consistent to the real-life Winston Cup of the time. Both the MS-DOS and Nintendo versions allowed the player to setup the car, with effects to be seen. Both of those versions also allowed the player to choose whether they would race with the effect of damage on their car or not. However, a large enough collision with another racecar on the track always would result in the player going out of the race in an out-of-control crash.

CHALLENGE
EXPERIENCE LIFE
IN THE FAST LANE!
Strap yourself into the first stock car race
simulation that actually puts you behind the
wheel and in complete control. Co-designed
by NASCARR star Bill Elliott himself, this
test of man and machine duplicates authentic
racing from the working instrument gauges
to racing strategies like drafting and the
sling shot. It's so realistic you'll swear you
can smell the infield barbecues!
Slide into the roll cage of one of three
ground-pounding 650 horsepower beasts.
Then go head-to-head with "Awesome Bill
from Dawsonville" and 14 of the nation's
most relentless racers in three different skill
levels. You'll face them in the Championship
Season on the speed scorching banked
ovals of Daytona and Talladega and the
rubber-ripping corners of Sears Point and
Watkins Glen. But test your skill and
strategies in practice first. Or else your
racing career may hit the skids and you'll
be stripped of your NASCARR license for
good (what a disgrace).
But your adversaries are only half the
battle. Depending on the type of track, you
must decide between manual and automatic
transmission, which engine, spoiler angle,
gear ratio and tire stagger to use. Choose
carefully, or you'll find yourself pacing the pits
while your competitors are lapping you up.
You better feel the need for speed to enter
the no guts, no glory world of NASCAR
racing. Bill Elliott wouldn't steer you wrong,
so be careful not to do it yourself!
For 1 player only.
