NASCAR 2001 is a racing simulator video game for PlayStation and PlayStation 2, and the fourth game in the EA Sports's NASCAR series, following NASCAR 2000.
It is the first in the series to include manufacturer representation (although the Windows version of NASCAR 2000 and NASCAR Arcade, released by Sega under EA Sports' license, also featured manufacturer branding) and Daytona International Speedway. The game features tributes to Adam Petty and Kenny Irwin Jr. (who otherwise are also playable drivers), who died during the season the game was based. The game was succeeded by NASCAR Thunder 2002.
