Nascar Thunder 2004 (1 Viewer)

Anyone pick this up today? I bought the Xbox version earlier and have already logged a good 4+ hours on it. Lots of improvements. You actually have to use the draft at Daytona/Talledega. Definitely an improvement over 2003.

Bought this game yesterday, have yet to play it. Maybe a little this afternoon if i can get in some quality hurricane play.

so what do you think of the game Rudy?

I like it. I think I actually put in about 6 hrs of gameplay last night. The grudge/alliance system is pretty cool. If you liked 2003, you should like 2004. If you didn't like 2003, there are enough changes/additions to give 2004 a try, IMO.

Do you have to be from the south to buy this game?

How are the crashes? Sometimes in NASCAR games it's fun to go on a wild kill-spree.

No one else picked this up? Last year's version seemed really popular. I'm having a blast playing.

I have and still play last years version of this game and was impatiently waiting for this years installment. But being EASports and no live support I will not be buying the game this year, a rental will have to do for me or a hell of a deal.

Anyone have any lists with the track specific car setups yet?

It was posted on here last year and it was a BIG help.

There are some setups at the following website.

Not for all the tracks, but for about 6-7.

In case anyone is interested, I uploaded a user profile at GameFAQS and at the Action Replay site that contains 165/171 Thunder Plates. It has all paint schemes, Veteran Qualifying Plates, all Lightning Challenges completed, and is only missing the plates you win in Career Mode.
