  NASCAR Thunder 2002 Review for PlayStation 2 - Gaming Age   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
NASCAR Thunder 2002's gameplay is an acquired taste - either you like NASCAR or you hate it.
Thankfully, since all the NASCAR tracks are modeled, you have more than the usual 'turn left and step on it' oval tracks that have become the hallmark for this sport.
EA's NASCAR series have modeled the car setup portion of the sport well over the years, and this year is no different.

 The Armchair Empire - Xbox Reviews: NASCAR Heat 2002
But to Nascar racing fans, that percentage of the public with gritty engine oil in their blood, commercial stickers on their headboards and achy necks permanently curved left, the appropriation of, and the differences between the EA and Infogrames Xbox racers is as clear as a good racing day.
Once you hit the asphalt, Nascar fans will appreciate the precise designs of the racetracks, the stadium seats and other particulars of the 20+ tracks from cities all over the states but for others the large variety may seem reduced by the uniformity.
There is a nice collection of view points to choose from including first-person and in the cockpit and at the end of each race, supplementing the overall rounded feel of the game, there is a recordable and adjustable replay mode with plenty of angles and switches to fool around with.
