    This one is actually from 1996 and was the 2nd. The PC version is 1994 and was the 1st game

    • @averagejoesquad1238
      @averagejoesquad1238 7 років тому +17

      If we wanna be honest, the first was "Richard Petty's Talladega" on the Commadore 64 from back in the 1980s.

    • @Z64sports
      @Z64sports 7 років тому +10

      AverageJoeSquad I'd say Bill Elliott's Nascar Challenge as Richard Petty's game wasn't officially licensed by Nascar

    • @averagejoesquad1238
      @averagejoesquad1238 7 років тому +6

      Good point. There's also Kyle Petty's No Fear Racing as well, but I don't believe that was officially licensed either.

    That 'marcease' guy you passed was Dave Mar-kiss. There is this documentary series these days hosted by Ray Evernham, and Larry McReynolds was on there quoting "Don't let NOBODY tell you that Ryan Newman was hard to pass; unless they've tried to pass Dave Marcis."

    Papyrus are the same company who made Iracing and I'm not surprised but the fact that EA Sports, Eutechnyx and 704 Games can't do what Papyrus did in 1996 is just sad and even more disappointing.

    when you were trying to pit at Bristol, all I could think about was in Days of Thunder when Cole says "I gotta pit"... Harry Hoggs replies with "we're busy now eating ice cream" lol
    great video!

  • @ProLGL
    @ProLGL 5 років тому +1

    So I found this game in my basement about a week ago, but didn’t have a PS1. Yesterday I found a PS1 buried in the back of my parents closet, immediately popped this game in and started playing. And I can say this with confidence, it’s one of the best nascar games out there. Sure the graphics on PS1 are shotty but the physics, fantasy tracks and throwback tracks make up for it big time. And the fact you can control the car while under a yellow. It’s amazing. I think I found out how to pit too. When you pause the game there is an option that says “Pit Radio” and you go into that menu and tell your crew what you want a lap ahead of time. Then you come in and park it right behind the pit sign and they do service to the car. At least they did for me. It was a blast.

  • @Pistons1227
    @Pistons1227 4 роки тому +2

    A few years late on this, but in order to pit the car, you have to stop directly under the sign and it will pit you. It wasnt always easy.

    • @The52car

  • @frevazz3364
    @frevazz3364 3 роки тому +1

    Remember this game and it's remarkable the level of detail and realism that was accomplished by Papyrus in the mid 90s. There are games that have been released recently that don't have the level of detail this game does which is sad state of affairs. This game has cautions, black flags, pit stops, tire wear, looseness, adjustments, telemetry, intervals, track map, damage, replays, and many more details.

  • @thearcadeproductions1140
    @thearcadeproductions1140 7 років тому +1

  • @inthere2it
    @inthere2it 7 років тому +8

    The reason you drive low in 1 and 2 and high in 3 and 4 is that at that time, the finish line was on the current backstretch, not the current frontstretch. So everything is flipped around, 1 and 2 is 3 and 4 and 3 and 4 is 1 and 2.

    • @blakeandrews9496
      @blakeandrews9496 7 років тому

      inthere2it you know i didn't know that... i guess that would explain why into the early 2000's there was that wall down the backstretch that looked like a pit road wall..

    • @inthere2it
      @inthere2it 7 років тому

      Yep that's exactly what it was. Atlanta was also flipped around in the same way before 1997 and was also configured as a mile and a half, high banked version of New Hampshire before taking on its quad-oval shape of today.

    • @blakeandrews9496
      @blakeandrews9496 7 років тому

      inthere2it yeah i knew about Atlanta, not New Hampshire though. interesting.

    • @inthere2it
      @inthere2it 7 років тому

      No not New Hampshire, that was just a comparison to describe Atlanta before the reconfiguration.

From the looks of ur vid, I think the PC version was a bit better (graphics- and physics-wise and had more depth, overall, as is the case with most sim on PCs versus consoles, even today). But still cool. Thanks for the memories.

    This is actually a console port from papyrus NASCAR racing 2 which came out in 1996, not 1994. I still have the original NASCAR racing. The intro to the original NASCAR racing didn't have the intro movie. It had Ned Jarrett. Verbatim, he says " I'm Ned Jarrett. From papyrus, this is NASCAR racing" and then an in-game race at Martinsville plays with skid row playing over the video

Its sad the game developers got lazy with the pace/caution laps, damage, pit command sections. For its time, it was the best Sim racing game. Indycar 96 for PC/MAC, also by Papyrus, actually improved on this one.

    I have this game. But there was a weird way to install it. Can't figure it out.

    Love the intro to this game. The only thing better was you setting it to Running in the 90's.

    I was playing this game at like 5 or 6 years old. It was one of my first video games. It was hard to go from this and then the legendary Dirt to Daytona to the crap that followed. And yes, pitting was confusing on the game.

    You should DEFINITELY play Nascar Racing 2003 Season. Easily the best NASCAR game ever

    This is actually the PS1 version which is much more superior graphically than the original PC version. This is essentially a port of NASCAR Racing 2 with some modifications.

      In addition, the pitting works fine in the game. You have to stop in the right spot in your stall and you also have to have your pit settings set to what you want changed on the menus. The characters don't actually come over the wall but if you're on the in car cam, you will feel the car being jacked up. It's the only time in the game where you can't control your car and it'll release you when your stop is over.

    I actually knew that one track was darlington because of the yellow pit line on the apron
