[simpits-tech] Nascar Thunder 2004

[Brian Sikkema]

Well, with all the talk about racing sims, and after watching a couple 
really good races at Chicagoland (on TV, not in person, unfortunately), I 
got bit by the racing bug, heheh. Went out and grabbed a copy of Nascar 
Thunder 2004, threw on my CH yoke and pedals, and went for a few spins.

Actually, more than a few spins. Clearly my driving skills have degredaded 
since the last time I played a racing sim! (the first Nascar Racing... 
yikes!) hehehe. But it's been fun, seems to be a solid game, good physics, 
etc. A good Nascar game, if that's your thing. Sorry, Gene, I took a look at 
NFS:U, but Ricers just aren't my thing...

So anywho, I just thought I'd put my plug in for NT2004. The one complaint I 
have so far is the "Broadcast" camera view really sucks, it tends to wait a 
bit after your car is out of view before it switches to the next camera, 
and, well, sometimes a lot happens in that little bit. So that bugs me. And 
my driving ability, but that's not the games fault, hehe!
