Best Racing Game Ever!!
Nascar thunder is defienitely the best game I have ever played. THere are so many race options to choose from. YOu can race multilpayer or start a season. WHen I started this game it got frustrating because I couldn't make any of the turns. After a week or two of playing, you get used to it. SOme of the cool features for this game are create-a-car, lightning challenge, and thunder plates. IT was fun to pick the paint shceme that suited me best and putting my favorite sponser on my car. THe game has sponsers that range from Outback Steakhouse to Goodyear. THe lighntning challenge puts you in a scenario where you usually have to copy a feat a racer accomplished. THis can range from staying out of a wreck, holding off others with old tires, and taking the lead from someone. A weird thing in the challenges is that most of the time you are supposed to beat Earnhardt Jr. for the win. When you win one of these challenges you get a thunder plate. THis can range from a bush series regular, a legend driver, or paint schemes. THis game is really addictive. When I got it, I played for a week straight even though I was awful. THe tracks are drawn to look lifelike and you can even choose to race a racer's alternate car. THere are alot of optoins you can choose to make the game different. YOu can change the difficulty, put on auto repair, change the AI's aggressiveness and others. Career mode can be really frustrating. YOur car is really the worst by far on the circiut. WHen all of the cars are going 180 at Talladega you are goin 160. Go figure. To fix this problem, you can go to R and D to improve different parts of your car. RIght now I am doing engine power. One thing that I found fun to do for 2 players is turn the cautions off. After this when you are racing you go backwards and start huge wrecks. It is a great feeling to watch 8 cars catch on fire at one time. One goal while doing this is to get out all of the other cars so you are the only two cars left. YOu have acchieved victorory when you do this. TIP: To open different courses, you must win the other race on that track on MEdium of Difficult. ONe easy way to do this is with two players put on auto repair, turn off cautions, and drive backwards to wreck everyone. Afer everyone is gone, you finish the race and get the track. THis is an awesome game and I reccomend you buy it

BUCKLE UP!!!!
I'm not much of a fan of car racing. In fact I put it in the same catagory as watching a guy hit a golf ball and then walking after it. But.... watching an event and playing an event are two different animals. NASCAR Thunder 2003 is a total rush. I play on a six foot T.V. screen and this game litterally puts you behind the wheel. Every race is pure adrenalin start to finish.Multi player is a total blast. This game is a must purchase. Renting it would be a waste cause you're only gonna end up buying it.

Buy NASCAR HEAT: Dirt to Daytona instead
Don't buy Thunder. It's not a bad game, just that you can better spend your money on NASCAR HEAT: Dirt to Daytona. Thunder only offers stock car racing whereas Heat offers *4* games in 1: Dirt/Go-Kart(modifieds)/Truck/Car and therefore Heat offers a lot more variety and fun. Buy NASCAR HEAT: Dirt to Daytona instead.
