Joey Logano and Richard Petty are unlockable drivers in the game, either by winning an amount of trophies or discovering their cheat code. The fictional drivers in the game are Maurice L'eclair, Monica Torres, Kelly Kates, Linda Leadbetter, Shakes McDaniel, Thriller Tadwell, Billy Backfire, Bobby Backfire, Luke Trigger, and Terri Winsome. This would be EA's only NASCAR title produced for 2009 and last game in the EA Sports NASCAR series. Due to low sales numbers for NASCAR 09 and other factors such as a difficulty making new features, the production of the annual simulation-style NASCAR games stopped until Eutechnyx's release of NASCAR The Game: 2011. EA's license as NASCAR's official video game producer expired upon the release of Gran Turismo 5. This game marks the first NASCAR video game released on a Nintendo console since NASCAR 2005: Chase for the Cup. The game was also the last of only three games to use the EA Sports Freestyle label alongside FaceBreaker and 3 on 3 NHL Arcade.
