This is a general gaming topic, so here goes.......................

I do enjoy playing mostly FPS games, but sometimes I am in the mood for some hardcore racing! I like Need for Speed series games on the PC and the "Driver" games on the 'ol PS1 also. I was looking for a good Nascar racing game for some true competition and never found players online.

A friend of mine told me that the best Nascar racing sim was and still is Nascar 2003 from Papyrus Games. After 2003 EA Games took over and ruined it like the rest of thier crap we see today. I looked all over for this game and finally found a "New Nascar 2003 never opened game" on Ebay. I finally got the damn thing for almost $100.00 US

Well, as a hardcore, drunk driving, speed racer, I have to say that it was worth the money for a game that old and retailed for $18.00 when it came out! Tons of servers and players and even racetrack mods to get up to date!

If you ever want to race, good luck finding a copy of this rare driver!

I do remember reading that is what an excellent game in PC Gamer. Seems you've found a jewl in the rough... and rough EA has definitely made it for every game since they went down the tubes.

Would that be Nascar Thunder 2003? If so, I happen to have a copy that came with my mom's laptop that I have never used. Eh, I see it has a big EA logo on the front. Did they make more than one Nascar game in '03?
