NASCAR was on top of the world at that time, so much merchandise was being pumped out, you couldn’t go a day without encountering something NASCAR related.
Let’s not forgot the mod community for making the game like brand new. I am thankful for those guys for the creativity and passion they have.They are the hero’s when it comes to Nr2003 I mean between the series updates , tracks both old and new and of course the cars some of these painters should design cars for NASCAR teams there absolutely amazing and thats just the tip of the iceberg of the mod community.
The early 2000s was the best era of NASCAR games. You had Monster Game's Heat and Dirt to Daytona, EA's NASCAR Thunder series and 2005 Chase for the Cup, and Papyrus's NASCAR Racing series. Nr2003 is still relevant to this day thanks to the modding community. You can basically turn it into a free version of iRacing. Game looks great too with the MENCup19 mod and graphics update. People have event modded in VR. It's insane. But Nr2003, Dirt to Daytona, and Thunder 2004 all released within a one year span. Couldn't have asked for a better year for any genre in general. Three games that still stand the test of time.
I owned the papyrus nascar games and they were pretty fun to play. Doing a full length Busch race on nascar racing 3 at south Boston was always cool, the furthest I went in a race to make my only stop was lap 195 of 300
I remember playing Bill Elliott's NASCAR Challenge on the NES. I used to like NASCAR as a kid until I moved on to other motorsports like F1. I also played NASCAR Chase for the Cup 2004 and NASCAR 99. It's also pretty cool that Gran Turismo 5 and 6 had the NASCAR license. Forza 7 also has NASCAR.
I remember racing aginst Dale Jr. in the wee hours of the mornings just before he went fulltime in the Cup Series in NASCAR Racing. Papyrus had the best game of any that were available back then.
The best part of NASCAR games from the 1st Thunder up until the end of the EA-era? They have the same triple digit numbered cars & sponsors for fantasy drivers lol
@@howie3601 I've still got my ps2 in working condition. Im gonna have to look into it. I've heard so much hype on those games. Tbh I loved 2008 cause I believe that had Trucks and dirt on it and you could customize the your ride. But I'm not sure. But as of now, Inside line is my favorite one
When NASCAR Legends and Craftsmen Trucks came out for the time the visuals where mind blowing. I would buy a modern retro racer with those graphics today.
1996, there was NASCAR Racing for the Playstation. Had some of the most realistic wrecks at the time and if I remember correctly, even had a tow truck on the track to pick up the wrecked cars. Something I still dont see simulated to this day.
Best NASCAR games are the series from Papyrus/Sierra, especially NASCAR Racing 2003 and NASCAR Racing 1 and 2 (nostalgic). (NASCAR Racing 1 - 2003) After that the early games from EA SPORTS NASCAR 98-2000 (especially NASCAR 99 for PlayStation 1) are also very good. Then the PlayStation 2 EA SPORTS NASCAR games 'NASCAR 06-09' are the last good NASCAR games. But the GOAT is and was NR2003.
NASCAR Revolution was one of my first NASCAR Games I played! True story about doing the videos I think when I first started doing the videos I think the only thing that fully surfaced was a Commercial in French for this game!
Oh man i really Love nascar dude nascar is so cool and my favorite cars from nascar is the macdonald's car the burger king car the hot wheels car and the frosted flakes car man those cars are my favorites from the nascar of course this is incredible
tbh i never noticed that the newer heat series used the old heat series contact and spin soundd effects btw nascar thunder 2004 doesnt look that bad hes just playing the pc version which is horribly innacurate to the console version (console version is similar to thunder 2003)
Put Fantasy Lightning McQueen no. 95, Fantasy Strip Weathers no. 43, Fantasy Chick Hicks no. 86, Fantasy Doc (The Fabulous Hudson Hornet no. 51) models from Cars Xbox 360 video game and Fantasy Junior Moon, Fantasy Louise Nash and Fantasy River Scott models from Cars 3: Driven To Win in a video game series of NASCAR right away please? I want to see it on a 100% longplay video.
Nascar Racing 3 1999, NASCAR 2001, Nascar Heat 2002, Nascar Dirt to Daytona, and Nascar Racing 2003 Season all look incredible for the time. Nascar 07 and 08 look fantastic too, and their sense of speed is incredibe. EA Sports NASCAR Racing 2007: I knew I recognized it from somewhere. It's an arcade game literally found in arcades! I remember that being a lot of fun! Nascar 09 actually looks worse than 07 and 08 Nascar Unleashed is a masterpiece! Grew up on this piece of nostalgia! I have nascar the game inside line: I remember it being frustrating for me when I was young lol and I also like how 13, 14, and 15 pretty much copy a lot of it over. Heat 2 and Heat 5 I have and they're pretty good! We all know 21 ignition is the worst. Up there with heat evolution and 2011 the game
You mean graphically right? Sorry but the EA Sports games are objectively better. Better physics, career mode, all car skins we there to unlock without paying for them, Great soundtracks, and overall better experience.
If you haven't played them I suggest Thunder 2004 or 2005 Chase for the cup. I still play them to this day on my PS2. These new Nascar games are just boring compared to the old ones.

Jesus Nascar released alot of games in 99
There are actually 6 games in the 99
NASCAR was on top of the world at that time, so much merchandise was being pumped out, you couldn’t go a day without encountering something NASCAR related.
Tyeee was a lot in 2002 as well
best nascar arcade game will still be daytona usa
Oh yeah they did
_Nascar exist_
Game Developers in 1999: *Business is boomin'*
I see ur a real racing 3 fan. So am i
😂😂
I miss the nascar 14 and 15 graphics it just looks so realistic, nascar heat just looks like a cartoon
Not to mention 14 and 15 is on PS3 and 360 while the heat series is on PS4 and XBOX 1
Even the mobile look so good
Gonna have to disagree with you there bud'
No it doesn't lmao

Thank you! For this great! Video. Video games sure have come a long way since the 90s
Cant keep keep stopping to replay the intro ITS SO SATISFYING AAAAAAAAAA
The memories come flooding back when I watch EA Sports NASCAR Racing.
Nascar 21 Ignition just came out. I remember playing nascar 06 and 07

Don't forget with Real Racing 3 (yet another EA game), it got NASCAR license too (complete with 2013 & 2021 season)
Only the real gamers remember shooting tires out the front of their car with cheat codes on ps2...

why is this guy sound's so chill
Is it just me, or do the old nascar games look better than today's nascar games?
its nr2003 that looks the best for me
Totally went from arcade style, then almost full blown simulator, then back to arcade
The best part of NASCAR games from the 1st Thunder up until the end of the EA-era? They have the same triple digit numbered cars & sponsors for fantasy drivers lol
They need to bring back the fantasy drivers and the Tracks too

I used to play days of thunder and Bill Elliott's NASCAR challenge on a tandy 386 PC when I was like 6. Hard to believe how ridiculous it looks now.
Nascar 15 hands down the best nascar game in the past decade
14 and 15 were pretty much the same, so TWO great games in a decade.
I didnt get my first nascar game til 2008. So inside line is by far my favorite
I strongly suggest for you to get a PS2 and play Thunder 2004 and 2005 chase for the cup. Great Nascar games.

Bill Elliots Challenge was my 1st NASCAR game.
My first was Papyrus NR1, and I spent an incredible amount of time on N2 and NR1999 especially. Nowadays NR2003 is where it’s at.
NASCAR 2004 and 2005 by EA will always be my favorites.
Nr2003 was one of my favourite games of all time
Nascar 2011 will hold a spot in my heart man. I loved that game
Same, loved the crashes and physics
6:33 NASCAR Heat 2000 Will Be My Favorite Game FOREVER
Right now at this second, I’m downloading a nascar game.
Nice vídeo Brow ❤
The Nascar 2001 game is really sad because you know, Dale died that year and you can PLAY as him.
Give me Heat 4's career, 99's soundtrack, NR2003's physics, and 08's graphics.
Why not Thunder 04's career mode and forza 7's graphics?
Nah we need 03 or 07 soundtrack
I assembled a playlist of a bunch of songs from NASCAR game soundtracks from 98 to Inside Line, I listen to them while playing NR2003 or Thunder 2004
@@andrewhaywood1262 whats your favorites?
@@tony_mac24 why not both have thunder 04 and heat 4 career mode together

What is the game called
@@lenniusgato3270 NASCAR Racing
Nascar Road Racing. i didnt see it on the list. came out in the late 90's
Nascar 99 had a great intro, but OML it was so hard to control
My three favorite is Nascar 2003, Dirt to Daytona, Nascar Rumble.
Nascar 13-15 probably the peak of nascar game, the game feel different after nascar heat sequel. But no one can beat the almighty nascar rumble
no nascar inside line
I’d say 2011-2015
And also i play daytona usa from 1993 man it was so much fun
NASCAR Racing 4 was the last NASCAR game where Dale Earnhardt was a playable, non-unlockable character. I need a moment to take that in.
NASCAR 98 was my favorite, but boy do you ever learn to hate that one Molly Hatchet song lol.
😂😂😂 so true
Damn my first nascar game was 07 how i loved opening the game to some Diary of Jane by Breaking Benjamin!
13:12 is my favorite part 😉
Enter you're local video game arcade ( remeber those ) all you hear DAYTONA!!!!!!!!! DAYYYYYYTONA
NASCAR dirt to Daytona is my childhood
09 was the first video game I ever played making it one of the best on this list for me
Like your videos
Best NASCAR games are the series from Papyrus/Sierra, especially NASCAR Racing 2003 and NASCAR Racing 1 and 2 (nostalgic). (NASCAR Racing 1 - 2003)
After that the early games from EA SPORTS NASCAR 98-2000 (especially NASCAR 99 for PlayStation 1) are also very good.
Then the PlayStation 2 EA SPORTS NASCAR games 'NASCAR 06-09' are the last good NASCAR games.
But the GOAT is and was NR2003.
My favorit Nascar Rumble.
I had Nascar 2004 from PS2. 😢😭💓
I grew up on NASCAR ‘14
I wish I could play NASCAR Thunder 2004 on the PS4. That game is what got me into NASCAR, same with NASCAR ‘06 TTC.
Bill Elliot’s NASCAR Challenge was also on the GameBoy and the only reason I know that is because I had the cartridge.
More like the rise and downfall of nascar games
Ikr nothing is as good as the ones from early mid 2000s
My first nascar game was NASCAR '14
I had so much fun and met friends in Nascar thunder 04 pc, it was very very good times.
i love how dale is in nascar 2001, he is a god
That's because the game is set in the year 2000.

I never really played the game 2011, but I remember having for the Xbox 360, and I played it a couple times before the disc decided to commit suicide
I had NASCARs 07 and 08.
Daytona usa was so advanced at his time. Sega was the king of the arcades. Same for Nascar 1994 from Papyrus
new NASCAR 5 is so cool
The original Heat is one of my favorite childhood games
Nascar Rumble its my favorite a
Thanks
Nascar thunder 2002 was the best Nascar game that ever made
Nascar 07 It was very advanced and modern FOR 2007 I think it better than all this to 2018
Nascar thunder was a solid game for its time and so was nascar 2003 season. What a hit!
I wish the new games have an actual race ticker like nascar 08 did, 11:42
Nascar 99 on N64, the first video game I ever played.
Finally a Dirt To DayTona that's my fav cus I have it on my ps2
NASCAR Revolution was one of my first NASCAR Games I played!
True story about doing the videos I think when I first started doing the videos I think the only thing that fully surfaced was a Commercial in French for this game!

I came for the Daytona USA Series
NASCAR 09 Was the last straw for me. That game was so bad I settled for GameStop 5 dollar trade in scam. Haha
