Nascar Racing 2002 (Replays + Video)

Here are some replays and a video, about my favorite racing game - Nascar Racing 2002 (N2002). I first mentioned N2002 on 2002-02-23, nearly 4 months ago. Since then, I still can't score other than the last spot on the grid, when racing against 100% competitive CPU racers... My excuse is that I don't have time to practice, but I've improved! Now, despite rarely out-qualifying someone, I have a race rhythm that challenges a few adversaries. My best race drove me up from last to 7th place (!), at Watkins Glen. I am a better racer, than qualifier.

Anyway, here is a trio of my fastest replays:

To watch these replays, right click them, chose "save as" to somewhere on your PC, run them, extract their contents to the "replay" folder of your N2002 installation path, launch the game, and load the desired file, from the replay theater!

If you want to see my steering wheel in action, I also edited a laughable video, that shows me driving the Watkins Glen' chicane, with subtlety... The video features in-car and outside angles, and does NOT require you to have the game, to enjoy it. Its purpose is for people who don't have a clue about what sim-racing is, to get a glimpse of the thrill!
