Same league but in a different league
If you're producing a simulation of a particular racing league, and you're updating what was already a superb game, it's not surprising there are similarities. The tracks for a start. But after spending a few days with NASCAR 2, it's clear it's a whole new ball game from NASCAR.

Firstly, Papyrus really has got its svga shit together. The original game in svga worked on high-end machines, but the detail on everything except the cars was poor. The graphics have been massively extended to include trees, bystanders, team vehicles, pit buildings and so on. Not only that, but the 3D engine has been tightened up to cope. If you've a decent 2MB graphics card and a P166, all options can be switched on and you'll get around 10 frames per second depending on how many cars are on screen. On a pioo with cars, track, skids and all the essentials COn' with the other detail on CAuto' (drop below a preset frame rate and it'll deselect the detail), you get much the same result: playable and pretty. In fact, the best option to keep the frame rate up is to show fewer cars ahead and behind.
Secondly, the physics model is totally different. The cars in the original game were notoriously difficult to control. Foot down, drive off, tweak the wheel, spin. Reverse. Straighten. Swear. Drive off. First bend, brake too late, start to turn in while still braking. Spin. Repeat until keyboard breaks from banging your head on it. Now, the dynamics are much more forgiving. If the back end begins to wobble, it's much easier to bring it back under control. Spins are less violent, and it's easier to steer the car out of them. Contact with other cars is more likely to leave them a wheel lighter than you. It's just more playable, okay? Certain tracks seem a lot faster and wider, too, such as Watkins Glen (the only bendy one). On the other hand, standing starts are a nightmare now - wheelspin city. Qualify in first, then drop to tenth as you leave more rubber on Yankie tarmac than you'll see at a fetishist's convention.

Thirdly, the game now has more atmosphere, thanks to the steady stream of messages from the pit coming through your headset. Warnings about cars in your vicinity, accidents, letting you know that the three cars in front aren't back-markers but for a position... the system works well, though on some short ovals being told to Cgo low' every ten seconds can get on your tits.
Fourthly, the menu screens are I now cleaner and simpler. All the car I tweaking takes place on one screen at last - and it's easier to navigate through the race weekend menus.
And another thing
Fifthly... Oh, feck it. It's fab. It really is. Take a track like Bristol (the CFood 500' -only in America, eh?): a small banked oval that you can't take flat out. Qualify in the middle of the grid, and with a rolling start, it's a challenge making it safely round the first bend. At Bristol, you're always jostling with other cars, unlike the longer ovals. Nudging opponents off is an art (see CNobby Bastard's Guide To Racing Accidents') that'll see you carve through the field. But once you're in front, you have to stay there, and as your tyres turn into remoulds, the more prudent computer vehicles start catching up. Closing a door has never been so much fun since doing it on Fatty George's fingers in the fifth form. Then watch it all over again with the replay option. Then try racing the wrong way round the track and see how many pieces you have left when they tow you in. Then play it at work on your network with up to seven other players using IPX, or head-to-head via modem or direct connect. As a multi-player game, it's a case of either driving very fast, very dirty or both... fab. Really, really fab.

For those without a life, racing a full 500 laps complete with pit stops is the ultimate challenge, but for normal humans there is a range of options, including an arcade mode. However, if arcade racing is what you want, stick with RAC Rally, Screamer 2 or wait for Sega Rally, NASCAR 2 just doesn't quite have that authentic coin-op feel.

The fact that it's not perfect is good news - Papyrus can now go ahead with version 3 (rumoured to have 3D physics, hello to rolling cars, not present in this version still). Niggles include the aforementioned lack of flying vehicles and a clipping plane that is far too close when you race using the external as opposed to cockpit view (ie. the track suddenly vanishes a few yards in front of your car at several bends, especially noticeable at Watkins Glen). The fantasy tracks mentioned in the preview aren't finished, but will be released as freeware after Christmas -we'll have them on the Zone disk as soon as they're out. Oh, and you need glasses to read the rev counter, position and other text on screen - it was more prominent last time around. Also, selecting reverse gear is still a pain. But apart from this, NASCAR 2 really is fantastic, both compared with the old version and its competitors. If realistic saloon car-type racing is your bag, there is nothing else that comes close.
