Fun Fact: Bobby Labonte put Valterri Bottas and Sergio Perez to shame with his good teammate maneuvers
VaLtErRi, It’S JaMeS
Bobby is a legend
The not nice 69 joke was gold.
Kamikaze Productions presents:
Refuse to Lose: Road 2 Destiny
An original USA-produced motorsport anime about NASCAR racer Ryan Hemphill and his road to glory in his rookie season in 2003. But much like every other racer out there, Ryan soon learns that the road to glory isn't without its bumps and turns.
That’s a Disney original movie line
1:12:57 “if I was going to win this race I wanted to earn it.” that line killed me man 😂😂
one small correction is dale reynolds did it on legend difficulty but he won a championship in his rookie season.
Uh oh...
yeah, i remember i came onto his stream when he was doing the 100% charlotte race in his career, there was 6 to go, then he dnfed, i was devistated, thankfully he restarted that because well that was a pretty bullshittery finish if i say so myself
@Nedums it isn't legit if you have to restart cuae you don't get the finish you want.
@@thatonefatguy9043 oh well
Me and my wife laughed our asses off at your funny commentary
FUN FACT: turns 1 and 2 at Bristol are shorter than 3 and 4, meaning that you’ll be going faster out of 3 and 4 than 1 and 2. That’s why people always wreck at 1 and 2 but 3 and 4 are usually smoother
I've noticed that Bristol track map looked a bit asymmetrical, but I just thought that it was shown on the screen like it had a little perspective and wasn't perfectly top down. I've been a NASCAR fan for 21 of the 26 years I've been alive and never knew this
So what you're telling me is Bristol is a miniature Darlington?
Man I love this to death.
I'm gonna do it. Wish me luck
Daytona: 18th
Atlanta: Blew an engine in the first turn
Texas: Blew an engine
Charlotte: Wrecked
Michigan: SOMEHOW blew an engine in pits
Pocono: Almost 22nd, blew an engine
After this I quit realizing how horrible I am
@@nascardonuts F
were your engines built with corn chips? lmao
@@flareog134 IDK
@@nascardonuts if it's any consolation I blew an engine right at the start of the Daytona 500...and then finished no higher than 40th the next 5 races, crashing out or blowing an engine in each of them
YES. I loved the days of the 8 hour streams of dnf ing in every race and getting one driver to retire 😂
At least you are consistent in your expectations hoping to be 200 points ahead in every point in the season.🤔
1:10:40 lmfao I was waiting for this
Lmao
Video idea:
*Can You Lead By 200 Points For an Entire Career Season in NASCAR Thunder 2004?*
Listening to your fun facts makes me think there should be a thread or something on the mechanics of these games 🤔
Nascar Thunder 2004, Heat 2002, and Dirt to Daytona are the top three Nascar console games
Excellent narration dude. This brings me back to when I used to watch NASCAR a ton
5:00 Rockingham is notoriously easy on both qualifying and race. IM SORRY WHAT? you wanna run that by me again chief
Rockingham is hard as shit, he must be joking
tbf it's piss easy if you nail the setup, but you'll qualify 43rd if you run the default one
You can always get the pole at The Rock by sliding the car against the wall in 3 & 4.
@@jesseyoungblood6265 So what you're saying is that all my practice into actually "getting gud" at this track was completely wasted?
1:14:25 - "... which was enough for a *full course caution."*
_At Martinsville._
Fun Fact: I very much enjoyed watching this video.
Thank god you didn't choke the championship, Also very good video
Fun Fact: the final year of the (20 year) career for NT 2003 would be 2022
Crazy that the best NASCAR Career mode is literally in a 19 year old game.
Kami: dont be surprised
Tony Stewart: wins
Me: surprised pikachu face
1:23:19 HOLY SHIT I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE AN ACE COMBAT FAN!?!
Had no plans to watch an hour and a half video before work but here I am. Your one liners had me urinating myself. Automatically subbed.
2:42 Just wanted to mention that if you can somehow find the time to do them, I would love if you brought back the DNF streams again.
I for one loved your fun facts!!!
Dale never played on rookie, although he did say he was playing a rookie difficulty career offscreen during a stream once.
Man, never thought I would find a fellow North Dakotan on TH-cam. Cheers from Minot!
When I remember first playing this game pretty much all of my wins were from ending under caution or pretty much everybody not pitting due to a caution and running out of gas. I remember the Pepsi 400 were most of the pack ran out and ended under caution.
I did that in my first season at Talladega and was laughing my ass off when I realized what happened. IIRC, I spun and pitted ~lap 8 under caution but the AI stayed out. Another caution came out when a bunch of them ran out of fuel and I got the lead. We restarted 1 more time and they all ran out again since they still didnt pit but thankfully didnt cause another caution for a GWC and I snuck away with my first career win.
I love how gloriously derpy NT 2004 is.
Please do more of these I love the mitten squad vibe you had going with this video
This is very weird seeing this now he's just passed and I was here last year when this came out too :/
This was awesome. Thanks KG
Fun fact tired pressure does affect speed and acceleration IRL…
Jacoby popping up at 0:19 is super random 😂
KamikazeGames you should more of these types of videos and do it as a series.
45:10 that’s what you get not realizing Gordon is one of the best at superspeedways
this shit is hilarious i love your sense of humor and delivery
Why have I just now found this content?? BRAVO
This is your best video yet
Please go back to the breaking the game NASCAR thunder 2004 series.
My heart broke when Stewart beat you at Watkins Glen
im late but i love the crash bandicoot soundtrack just playing in the background
This is the 5th time I’ve watched this. Too damn good.
I, too, dreamt of losing a Bud Pole Award to Ryan Newman 😄
A very interesting challenge to say the least.
More videos like this please KG 🙏🏾
Currently watching this for the 3rd time
Your commentary is so funny dude.
Dude the Ace Combat music at the end ♥️♥️♥️
I love when KG says funny or stupid things, but in that usual documentary style of speech.
Hey it’s like the Smoke games’ precursor lol. Gotta beat smoke rather than everyone else.
Fun fact: the fun fact in the middle of the video was indeed not the final fun fact of the video.
Adding tire pressure does actually aid in top speed (not a huge amount) since there's less rolling resistance. Acceleration on the other hand is a bit of a head-scratcher.
less tire pressure = larger contact patch = more grip = more acceleration
It's why drag cars run such deflated tires
@@d1a2n3n4y6 Googled why that happens not long after I made that comment. It made sense when I thought about it for a while.
Best video yet
Amazing video
I'm more interested to see if it's possible to make a Gamecube ISO of the game from PS2 and Xbox files since it got screwed out of that gem
When you said you’re awful in turn 1 but amazing in turn 3. I felt that
1:02:11 the true race that saved Darlington.
man vs tony stewart
Love the rando Jason jacoby vid in the scroll lmao
To be honest you good at this
Dale Reynolds is such a legend. The GOAT at this game.
Love it bruh (Now I'm gonna bump n run) 200 MPH at Pocono (Gears) Same gears for Daytona (I won) always pit on lap 5 through 9 (Can I win by Technical Elimination Intimidation? Smiles pits on lap 43) ... Bruh that fool left caution so I pushed the lower car into him and then pitted next lap lol now pit every 11 after or caution (Craftsman) Custom DEI #7 / #14 / #77 (What restrictor plate ... My psi is under 2 lbs? Smiles)
Time to upgrade your car now!
Yes you can through strategic cautions in 5% length races.
Honestly I'm pretty sure if you have a good setup, a championship on Veteran like this might be possible. Legend though? Hell no. You might get a top 10, top 5 at best?
Dale played on legend lol
I wish the games today had better options for career modes. Stuff like custom schedule or change to old points sysyem
2005 Chase for the cup is my favorite
This is the shit I sub for
I never played this I’ve always wanted a good nascar game. I was born in 03. I really wish I could’ve played the ps2 nascar games but I never got any of them when I was little I had gta 3 and vice city but no nascar :( I still have a ps2 tho so I’ll have to pick this up at some point unless yall wanna send me a copy lol. The best nascar game experience I’ve played to this point is the nascar game at chucky cheese. That game was actually so good tho. The arcade nascar was so good
22:39 UrinatingTree used this song in his Dan Snyder video.
"You already know all the pomp and circumstance" ah... yeah sure...
Half way through the video I realized it was a hour video
Just started an attempt at this challenge, results are as follows
Daytona 11th
Rockingham 10th
Vegas DNF (got spun, flipped, and rear ended, resulting in a blown fuel cell)
Atlanta 10th
Yet to run Darlington.
Update
Darlington was garbage (qualified 43rd and finished 43rd after getting slammed into the wall by Sprague on the last lap causing me to DNF)
Bristol was no fun (started 43rd finished 38th)
Texas..DNF
Went last to first at dega
Martinsville started 28th finished 11th after a last lap pileup at the entrance to the pits
Tossed the attempt in the trash after 3 straight DNFs after Martinsville....
I have decided to start again and play through career the proper way...with 100% length races.
0:20 Jason Jacoby appears
Always bothered me that the dev's never used the correct headlight decals for the Chevy in Thunder 2004, 2005
Uh. Dale played on Legend his entire season and made it a joke at the beginning of every episode that he played it on Legend.
Fun Fact: I feel like the "200 points ahead" is a reference to something else.😂😂😂😂😂
Decided to do my own version of this challenge (I'll make sure to update)
Race 1/36 Daytona: Qualified 22nd, Finished 2nd behind Mark Martin after trying to fend off the hard charging Roush cars of Kenseth & Martin.
Race 2/36 North Carolina: Qualified 31st, Finished 20th, accidentally gave Joe Nemechek a -60 on lap 1, spun out on lap 17/19 going into 3 while in 8th which sent me back to 25th place...
Race 3/36 Las Vegas: Qualified 37th, Finished 41st, had a good run going for a top 20 finish until I got very loose into turn 1 on the final lap...
Race 4/36 Atlanta: Qualified 31st, Finished 8th, very fun race, got a top 10 too.
Race 5/36 Darlington: Qualified 43rd, Finished 42nd (DNF), cautions cautions cautions! Get your free cautions here!, Michael Waltrip had no talent while going into the pits on lap 7/14, causing him to DNF. DNF'd myself after lightly tapping the wall with my right rear quarter panel coming out of turn 2 on lap 13/14, causing my fuel cell to explode, my first DNF of the season.
Race 6/36 Bristol: Qualified 42nd, Finished 43rd (DNF), kept getting caught out by the AI braking into the corners way too early (I'm so used to playing on Veteran & Legend difficulty), causing me to spin into the turn 1/2 inside wall and my engine exploded, causing my second DNF of the season.
Race 7/36 Texas: Qualified 23rd, Finished 6th, Pretty good race and a motivational boost for me and my crew ^^
Race 8/36 Talladega: Qualified 30th, Finished 1st, SWEET HOME ALABAMA! *Guitar riff* WHERE THE SKIES ARE SO BLUE!, Finally won my first race of the season after fending off a hard charging pair of Dale Jarrett and Kevin Harvick!
Race 9/36 Martinsville: Qualified 27th, Finished 43rd (DNF), Third DNF of the season, this time caused by my poor exit coming out of turn 2...
Race 10/36 California: Qualified 43rd, Finished 14th, Pretty fun race with Atlanta, nothing special to note about this one.
Race 11/36 Richmond: Qualified 40th, Finished 42nd (DNF), Pretty okay race until lap 18/20, was in the running for a top 15 finish until my car decided it didn't want to turn anymore and Kyle Petty getting into the back of me, causing me to spin out while coming out of turn 2, then on the restart while going into the final lap, I got slammed into the wall and my engine exploded. My fourth DNF of the season...
The All Star Open (Exhibition Race): I decided to participate in this race for funsies. Before this race I decided to check out the points standings, Ricky Rudd was leading the championship with 1567 points, followed by Mark Martin in second with 1502 points (a 65 point difference). Meanwhile I sat down in 23rd with 1058 points, anyways, onto the race. Finished 21st out of 22 cars, bleh.
Race 12/36 Charlotte/Lowe's: Qualified 43rd "GoOd ThInG wE hAvE pRoViSiOnAlS", Finished 43rd (DNF), would've been a much better race if Kyle Petty wasn't so pissed off with me, he spun me while coming out of turn 4, causing my fuel cell to explode thanks to Jeff Green slamming into the back of me while I was spinning out... My fifth DNF of the season...
Race 13/36 Dover: Qualified 43rd, Finished 10th, a surprise top 10, I'll take it. Especially after the past few races.
Race 14/36 Pocono: Qualified 43rd, Finished 40th, pretty okay race, was up in the mid pack of the field during the mid point of the race, unfortunately my car didn't want to work for the latter half of the race.
Race 15/36 Michigan: Qualified 43rd, Finished 36th, was on a good run for a 25th place finish until Kyle Petty slammed into me on the final lap while going into turn 1, but I managed to save it and get a 36th place finish, at least it wasn't 43rd.
kevin lapage got a top 10. noice.
👍👍
I call this the 'Furniture Row Challenge'
Please elaborate
I too suck at this game. Which is weird because I'm generally good at other racing games just not EA Nascar games
Pretty sure this is Ed Bolian
So this is a Rick Ware playthrough huh...
0:15 Well shit. I guess I'm a never was 😄
I did not react in time, got a 60 and a destroyed car for my troubles
Here at 17,762 views. (before that too)
I won't give my tire rotation away
Repair and overhaul would be fair just don't build new engines chassis or r&d
Have some race audio for this
I was planning on being up by 200 points
19:56 lmaoo
Why is Dover 2 at night?
I've been trying to win the Daytona 500 first season I've been having a hard time
Its favoured for Chevy .... But they crash (Dodge is Pontiac in this game bruh) Thunder 01 I think not 04
Hey maybe hook Stewart a few times. What did I just watch
Dude its platonically..
Fact I’m good 375 wins and 160 losses so 375-160 = 525
Is NT2004 ps2 or PC?
ps2 you can see it on the memory card text
48:04 the funniest shit i've ever seen
55:08 the second funniest shit i've ever seen
Black Flags Matter bruh ..... Good thing I ain't in penalty ... Smiles .... What Gordon do I Dump first man? ...... Stewart can't win in this game without Robbie ... Neither can Dale Jr without Jeff .... Technical bruh
