Trivia
- Dale Earnhardt was cut out from the game, after his death on February 18, 2001. But the player can unlock him by purchasing his thunder plate.
- This game was the first to feature a choice of day and night races at Lowe's Motor Speedway. Its predecessor, NASCAR 2001, featured both races on the schedule, but the conditions were the same for both races. (The day race, the UAW-GM Quality 500, was later moved to nighttime as well, and has been run at night since 2003.)
- Benny Parsons played the game as his NBC Pontiac to show viewers the track layout on NASCAR on NBC telecasts.
