- Flying overnight from New Zealand to California, Richie Axelson takes part in his first Nascar event after an offer to drive for the Wood Brothers from Dan Gurney. How will Richie perform in the heavy high-powered stock cars around one of California's most legendary circuits? Will Richie be able to go the distance and show Dan how quick he is?

Love how GPLaps builds a story out of his sim racing. It's one thing to jump out on a track and do some laps, but another to build a narrative around it.
It's incredible just how he builds the story of riche and riche jr to he is so creative going for a jim clark type of driver that can get in anything and win or do really well
"If you're not spinning, you're pushing."
Now that's a Richie Axelson quote if I ever heard one lmao
I really hope someday sim developers realize not everything has to be esports centric (Modern GT) and begin developing titles and experiences that celibate the history of motorsports.
I’m not talking about the occasional single classic generic or real F1 car with no period correct track and generic livery.
I’m talking titles that have full grids or close to full of classic cars and tracks. With features that allow the player to add the drivers names and liveries if necessary.
It’s not like you have to laser scan Riverside or LeMans from the 80s.
That will all come as people get older and lose their egos. There's a lot of money in Nostalgia. The youth of today are into electric bikes, scooters etc. Virtual reality will become big for nostalgia factor with everything and anything.
Yes, I'd love that
Unfortunately it it not going to happen soon. Esports and online competitive is where the money's at right now.
I gotta say I love your stuff. When many people ask why people would ever race AI instead of racing online against real people, this right here is exactly the reason.
To people like you and I, they are not just AI, but the digital representation of our real life heroes. Legends larger than life, in an era otherwise only accessible through recollection of tales, dusty photographs and grainy old videotapes.
Sim Racing allows us to experience the glamour and glory, the danger and drama, the cars and the stars. It provides us the ability to put our mortal selves against those who we revere like gods.
It provides us with a snapshot of the era, a window in which we can better understand, and gain further respect for those who risked their lives. Not just preserving history, but allowing us to replay it, immerse ourselves in it, to almost travel back in time to a bygone era.
I hope you keep up the good work! Hopefully someday I can do something even half as good as what you do!
This is such a nice comment, thank you so much. Glad you enjoy the videos and have a similar feeling as I do for what its all about!
@@GPLaps no, thank you for providing us with such great content
It also helps that the AI is so competitive, and also very varied between the top guys and the backmarkers. Axelson probably wouldn't have been quick enough to beat Gurney even if he had started P4 instead of P40.
AI behaves like real sportsman instead of as clueless brats ramming their cars into yours or rage quitting... gosh, I hate MP racing, it's an idiotic idea because there's no real punishment or consequences
Back when the sheet metal was so thick, it took a lot of rubbing to make a dent.
1) The fact that you're building a story/career for your sim driver is awesome
2) Your knowledge of racing history, if this video is anything to go by, is exquisite. I can play nr2003 vanilla and know which drivers are around me, but picking out which drivers you're passing in this era is impressive
3) You definitely have great skill and car control, and that made this incredibly enjoyable to watch
4) This mod pack and this track look like they're a lot of fun to drive
Looking forward to seeing what race Richie enters next!
Used to love to watch racing at Riverside. I sure do miss that track.
That was a monster effort. It looked very difficult, loads of off-throttle coasting through the tight stuff, unleashed for 20 seconds down the straight, and then pottering about again.
Can't believe I watched the whole race... That was fun and exciting!
Sounds like someone is fishing for an Eagle-Weslake drive.
“Notice me Gurney senpai”
Very Awesome! I was an 8 year old boy and Dan Gurney was my hero! Great to see the old cars and hear those amazing Ford big blocks screaming! Thank you for this video!
4th place for Axelson in his first NASCAR Grand National race!!! Methinks there may be offers for rides at a big oval race....
might that said NASCAR had a lot of roadcorse ringers back in the day
I miss Riverside and I never got to witness it live.
GPLaps is the zenith of sim racing content creators. Pure quality
I just watched the whole 1:39:38 minutes. Without pausing, going to toilet or much blinking and completely stunned by the way, you wrap all of this driving in a amazing storyline of the legendary driver Axelson. When he commented to Andretti, that "we should give him a break, cause he could be having a bright future ahead" (or something like this), I literally got goosebumps.
GPlaps has such an outreach to the sim driver community (YT channels doing vintage racing popping out of nowhere, including my own) - and videos like this underline that this outreach is well deserved.
And a personal note at the end: Watching and listening to your videos have distracted me from very dark thoughts over the last months. A distraction I really did need and which also inspired me at the same time.Thanks for that, very much!
And never took the foot of the pedal. 🙂
Now I'm taking my flight to New Zealand. Have to catch a race there ...
Very, very cool! I was able to watch this race back in the day and you're correct, 500 miles at speed on Riversides very demanding track took nerves of steel and a physical endurance to match. IMO the true golden era of NASCAR, more compelling than today's product.
Fantastic race from last on the grid! No podium obviously, but that's impossible from 43rd on the grid - so many cars in this NASCAR race. Very enjoyable to watch, great commentary making me feel in the thick of the action with every lap!
Thanks for NASCAR history lesson. I really like this track. I was doing some racing in GT Legends in Corvette C2 today, That V8 sound makes me forget about the problems:) You are inspiration for me to try some old simulators. I really appreciate your work. Thank You:)
Nice story and fun to watch! 56 laps .. I've done the full race here with the 63 mod and boy was it long lol. I think it took me an entire Saturday to finish.
Really love that you are doing the older racing !! Glory days...hats off !
Thanks for showing the car before the race 😁 those old stockers look like they would be a lot of fun
I was 16 when I went to this race. I was very anxious to get there ASAP so as to not miss a thing. My Dad wasn’t too interested so a friend of his took me with his kid who just wanted to be anywhere else. The dude picked me up late, then stopped at some out-of-the-way place for breakfast. When we finally arrived, the race was like 20 laps in, under a caution I think. I was PISSED. But the day was saved when my lifelong hero Dan Gurney won his fourth in a row.
One small nit to pick, however. Riverside had half-buried white-painted tires at the apex of most corners. The FIA-style curbs in this sim were not yet devised at the time. Also, the comments indicated that Dan drove only Wood Brothers cars for the early wins. In 1963 he drove the #28 Galaxie which was a Holman & Moody ride normally associated with Fred Lorenzen.
It took me 3 nights to get through this episode, but it was quite entertaining. This whole 66 series has been great! Thank you GP.
Awesome. I never did get a copy of NASCAR legends back in the day. GPL took up my sim time
Love the series! It would be awesome to see Richie race at something like the Milwaukee Mile or Indy (Although that would conflict with Monaco). Don't know if it would be possible because although there's a 1970 USAC carset for GPL, I don't believe there's one for 1966, even though the AI drives surprisingly well on ovals from doing my own runs with them. Maybe if there's something in rFactor AMS or Assetto Corsa. Either way, love watching your videos, keep up the great work.
EDIT: I did some looking around and Jonny'O on the forum did do a carset for the 1966 USAC season. Just something to think about, love the videos :)
from the live chat when the video came out: I asked about indycar and he said it's in the plans!
There should be no conflict since Indy500 was always held on May 30 in the 60s and that was a Monday in 1966 (Monaco was held on May 22) so it would be Possible for a driver to do both
@@danieldrexel3875 Mario did both at times.
The Galaxies from that era are high on my favorites list. This race really makes me wish this type of modding was available on consoles.
Wow! I did watch all the race after all. You just gained a sub, very good video. I gotta say I loved the gameplay and the excellent commentary, I love the way you mix a bit of history with the race, I can sense the passion when you talk about these former pilots... feels like you were racing them for real!
Great knowledge and great enthusiasm...Nice one, enjoyed it.
i'd love to see a full NASCAR season from Richie!
Really enjoyed this. I could watch you race at Riverside forever and not get bored. Such a great track.
Spectacular! Love seeing the varied types of races.
Oh sweet this is a continuation of Richie Axelson's 1966 F1 season? Very cool. If you impress Dan Gurney maybe he can hook you up with an Indy 500 seat?
Your right about those early Nascar road races. The actual race took just over 5hrs.
I like these videos the comentating is on point. A history of motorsport that isn't to familiar to me. Looking forward for more, who doesn't love the sight of old school muscle going toe to toe!
I remember running this track on INDY 500 EVOLUTION
That was a great game , all the Indy cars from 1960 - 1970
& a few of the tracks they ran !
Thank you for a sweet video...
I love old, historic, classic races cars.... doesn't matter what series ✌😎
Oh man, I miss NR2003, played it online hours on end every day until 2008, we were a great group of guys, most every race was 42 car grids where atleast 90% knew what they were doing and everyone was on Ventrilo (back then), and it was moderated heavily so no shennanigans were going on, a far cry from todays Forza lobbies. Great vid, I watched the whole race. :D
This was too sweet 👌. Really enjoyed it , Your driving and commentary were awesome..And that 63 mod for NR2003 is amazing ..But, the custom physics shouldn’t be kept secret ...it TRUELY makes the race. Thanks again and look forward to Axelson getting another invite to run heavy metal on a road course..
Wonderful race, you have got a good pace during the race. Nice to see Nascar on a road race...🏁
You have an amazing talent at telling stories. I just love the intros that you do for each video.
Racing is supposed to be boring. You make it fascinating. Thank You. this was amazing.
riverside was an awesome track! much more ineteresting tha Sonoma! If my memory doesn"t fail me, Dan Gurney raced for the last time in RIVERSIDE IN 1980
This was awesome, hope to see more of Richie Axelson in NASCAR
What a great race, I'd love to see more of this
When I think of this track, I think of Jim Busby on street tires, and Rolf Stomelen hitting the wall. Thank You. I'll cry later.
More Grand National races would be awesome. Great drive!!
That there 18 car is ol' Stick Elliott from Shelby, North Carolina there son. Car owned by Toy Bolton.
Only in 1960's NASCAR can you get guys named "Stick" and "Toy."
love the narrating, keep it up, super compelling, i vote for races at oxford, lee, and slinger!
This is what modern sims miss, a story. Most people don't have time or skill or money to invest into online MP racing, but would enjoy some career rpg campaign with a real or made up story.
Great driving Axelson, those stock cars are almost as unwieldy as they are powerful which is saying alot. Definitely requires patience and forethought to get the best out of them, the markings of a good driver.
40:00 coincidentally, that situation led to a famous accident in an IMSA Camel GTP race 20 years later.
Lyn St James was driving a very laggy 4cyl turbocharged Ford, and she was slow coming off that corner so Doc Bundy impulsively decided it was his best chance to pass. He took it 3 wide into that left hander in front of the pit wall, visibility was very bad in the IMSA cars and I don't think either of the other 2 drivers knew he was there. James ended up upside down and on fire, fortunately she was able to get out. The car was barbecued.
Great video you're a stories teller man!
500 miles on a road course is crazy. The sonoma race this year was about 220 miles for comparison. Bristol dirt was about 135 miles
I love the story in the beginning
Impressive performance by Mr. Axelson!
Almost 13 k congrats! The difference from the 1st to the last qualifier is huge. After this im gonna watch again "Winning"!
Yeah, this reminded me of that too. Drivers competing in different types of cars and series throughout the year instead of just one.
Carroll Shelby on the phone watching this race: Ken, I think I found your co-Driver for the Daytona 24.
Love, absolutely LOVE the cars and the racing from this era.
I think they’re the most beautiful cars, and hold a special place in my heart.
I wish the Devs would come out with a more modern version of these cars, imho I believe Sector 3 with RR, would be a excellent fit...now just to convince them lol...
I have GT Legends which is set back with similar series/era cars but haven’t touched it I. A couple years as I couldn’t get my pc/wheel to work properly with it...got frustrated, and gave up. You’ve given me a renewed inspiration to give it another go, and try to get it working.
Awesome work man, glad I found your channel, sub’d and liked.
Cheers
Man love2 run this race
Ayyyyy Buddy Arrington and JD McDuffie.
Pleas more more this is great!!!
You may not know this,but the #22 that you were chasing for awhile,Billy Foster, was killed at Riverside the following year in practice.
Dick Wallen would have caught that spin on lap 36....lol
Bravo! Good race. Never saw you pass Petty.
Papyrus NASCAR. Nothing has held a candle sense.
The love bug was on this track, too ;-)
My all time favorite GPLaps vid... hands down, bar none. The sound of these cars alone gets me hot and bothered... heheheh Wouldn't it be cool if you could do a series with these cars/drivers? A long oval (Atl., Mich.) a short oval (Dar., Bris)... etc...
That engine sounds so fuckin' good
This is really cool.
This was amazing to watch! Now i have to reinstall nr2003. The engine sound is amazing which sound mod is it?
Can't wait to see what you Richie gets up to in the month of May🤔
This Is really amazing And realistic concept. Honestly Hope if you were to take on some WSC races, maybe even 66 LeMans!
That tracks shaped funny. What are those right turny things
GPLaps goes land yachting.
I thought John Henry, owner of the Boston Red Sox, bought the rights to Nascar 2003 and sued all the modders to make them stop. Geoff Crammond wanted the N2003 engine to start building iRacing with. That is what I recall.
These cars, at those cornering speeds, for that amount of time, would drive me insane lol - well done on surviving it!
I have to admit I skipped the middle sections; if Gurney passed you on Lap 14 and then passed you again with 3 to go, how did you only end up 1 lap down?
Seemed like he was on a different pit strategy. Is it possible he won by that much while making an extra stop?
Wendell Scott cameo in the #34
I'm seeing a 1963 Ford and 2 1963 Dodges (# 6) at 1:02. Easier to call it the 1963 Motor Trend 500? I was there.
Nice
Can we have a race series with the old nascars ? I love this series and channel
Haha if you have closed captioning on the captioning refers to the whine of the engine at full throttle as music lol you're damn right TH-cam
It's strange not having those infomese "half buried " tires at this track. Growing up near Riverside I attended a few races. I've seen the tires in other tracks you have raced, but not here?
33:00 Doesn't matter if it's for position... just pass (carefully) the guy ahead...
1:34:58 those two cars outside the track lol
What soundpack is this? This sounds amazing
What mod and sound pack is this ? Looks and sounds great.
What car set is this? Seems more like 1964 instead of 66. I'm seeing a lot of round tail lights......lol.
63 grand national carset with 66 paintjobs, like he says at the beginning of the video.
Hey GPLaps. Really cool game. Just was wondering. Is this on the newest nascar game? or how would someone like me be able to play it? Just asking. But really enjoyed the whole playing of the game. You done a fabulous job.
It's this one, which is the last NASCAR game Papyrus made: www.mobygames.com/game/nascar-racing-2003-season
Great vid. If I can make one request, could you please up the levels on your mic? You're getting drowned out by the engine noises and as much as that's awesome, it'd be nice to have the game sound levels reduced just a bit. It's hard to hear your commentary over the game sounds.
ya he could use a little more gain on the mic
Yeah I apologize for this, it really bugs me too. Its the first video I edited in Adobe Premiere and I clearly didn't get the settings just right. Will fix for the next one absolutely!
@@GPLaps Nothing to apologize for, you didn't do anything wrong! Just a recommendation. :) Keep it up!
@@GPLaps , I didn't notice. I could hear everything you said just fine.
@@GPLaps no worries mate your content is fantastic. Truly up there with the best
Was this the GN63 mod on sports car physics?
Is there a custom sound pack you're using here? If so, where can I find it
Sucks that this place is just a neighborhood now 😞
is #4 Jack sears? the British tin top champion?
So, NR2003 is Papyrus and its engine is an evolution of the GPL's one, right?
But, wasn't there also a NASCAR game which had the IS engine, used in... ISI's F1C franchise, published from EA too in thoose years? How was it named?
You'll find the answer here: www.mobygames.com/game-group/nascar-licensees
AFAIR the EA NASCAR games were never full simulations, but I may be wrong.
I was talking of the game engine. For this, also AC is used to make running cars with simple physics (maybe the real problem is finding mods that match original cars at least) .
If you put NASCAR cars and tracks on F1C you've a NASCAR game, and that's not so different from what happens when a publisher already owns a good engine
Everything about this sim is legendary but the AI is still near unrivaled in modern sims.
Seriously such a complete sim. The only thing lacking is physics modding
What game is this?
@@jacobtaylor8975 Nascar Racing Season 2003 with I think the 1966 mod
@@happyloaf thank you
What sim is this?
Would they have had a pit lane speed limit in 1966?
No pit road limit at Riverside. NASCAR mandated pit road limits in 1991, Riverside closed after 1989.
Is this a mod or is the original game like this?
It's a mod for Nascar 2003.
Where do you get this game?? it's not on steam or Epic like wtf?
It doesn't need those shitty services, it comes on CD-ROM instead!
Lets do Daytona 24 in GTR2. Ford vs Ferrari
I would love to but there really doesnt exist good mods/tracks for 1966. It seems everything centers around 1967
@@GPLaps Famous mod Power & Glory and Daytona 1970 track
Engine sound was way too loud for me ...
