"In Papyrus' third racing game, the focus is moved from open-wheeled cars (IndyCar Racing) to closed-cockpit Nascar stock cars."
"Nascar Racing is a detailed simulation with realistic car models, accurate controls and room for a distinct racing style. Nine tracks are featured, the Watkins Glen road course alongside oval racing. You have full control over the car's set up and paint job.
To reach a wide audience, various driving aids are available, such as auto-shifting and auto-braking. Races can be fine-tuned with the amount of laps.
One of the notable features is drafting, by which you can position your car just inches off the rear of competitors in front of you. When in this aerodynamically optimal position, you gain acceleration, conserve fuel and place less stress on the mechanical parts. By timing right, you can also make a quick pass." --MobyGames.com

Less freedom than flying though. Truly amazing game. Nascar I mean.
Nascar Racing is X-Plane on ground.
Yo! X-plane? I'm a big fan. I have X-plane 9 and 7.
I've scanned and uploaded the big-assed manual that has been sitting on my shelf and staring at me menacingly for some time now.
Can't wait!
Oh, I didn't know what to do with these graphic files until now.
If/When I decide to upload to an external mirror.
Whens the link for Indycar racing II comin' out?
Sorry, was in a hurry. These are for cars. Graphics Converter? I thought you just drag the files into the paintshop folder, then select them in driver info in options while in the game. By the way bertyboy, been there done that.
GraphicConverter was not able to open these documents.
Guessing, for the cars.
May be a big thing for petrolheads. I've heard it's a big thing for X-Plane amongst planespotters, they spend weeks building the correct livery for their Lufthansa 737s.
Paint schemes about what?
Post your paint schemes if it's not too much bother. Here's a link for 7 of my paint schemes. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6314596/Files/Paints.zip
This is "Papyrus' third racing game",
while IndyCar Racing II is the fourth one
Anyway, I found this one in my 'Sierra Top Mac Pack', too.
Has cooler damage effects than other nascar games its age. Thanks for the game.
Kind of reminds me of Bill Elliots Nascar Racing that I used to have for NES just with allot better graphics
You are...
I'm beginning to think that Carl has broken into my house while I was asleep, copied all my games cds, put them back in the correct jewelcases and locked the door on the way out.
So many rare finds and I thought I was the only one who may have a copy.
