Fun facts, you can export the data from your runs in this game into the real Racepak software that the real teams were using at the time (and still did until very recently!). I know this because I worked there, for a gentleman who appears in this game!
This and the Gold edition with the Trucks and updates are arguably some of the best stuff. It makes me wonder what that Trans Am game they were working on,would have been like if it ever got anywhere close to being finished, IIRC all we ever got were screenshots. As a Brit, it makes me laugh harder than it should that Team Pissy Duck got into the game and nobody objected to that at all. Also I find it interesting that they have the slider for the nitro but given the NHRA's rules locking nitro at 90% you can't adjust it. Bruce Sarver got a DQ for having 90 point something in the real 2000 season after inspection in a round. And once again, Winston gets through unscathed in text form, because why not. Can't show the logo,but can mention winston Championship Drag Racing on the team/driver info screens. also,the WWF Funny Car is replicated scarily well, toowh Also, anyone remind me what the NEC Drag Dome replaced event wise? I thought it was an addon trak but I seem to remember it standing in for an event or a track in the season mode?wor

I actually played NHRA Countdown to the Championship on PSP.
11:15 the indy 500 game mode in indycar '03 kinda has that but the ai doesn't make it particularly interesting

NEC Drag Dome was a stand-in for Bristol.
It feels like there will never be anything like this ever again (or Burnout Championship Drag Racing by Bethesda).
Dam I played this loved running pro stock using the in car camera
I love this game.
Out of curiosity, did the creators of NHRA speed for all ever respond to your review on their game a couple years back?
Never
My friend made a 2018 mod to this game that has new tracks like zmax and epping with updated graphics and drivers...it was bad ass!
Someone mod this please!!
Nice but I’d need in car, not rear view
15:26 there you go
You still a paid shill for Ian? Or has he dropped you now?
