	USATODAY.com - Aggression, accidents increase on NASCAR circuit (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		NASCAR officials don't agree that parity is causing more accidents, but they do acknowledge it's too hard to pass.
		NASCAR's templates dictate the general shape of each body panel, but teams are allowed slivers of freedom to deviate slightly from the rules.
		Although the two least incident-prone drivers in 2003, Bill Elliott and Terry Labonte, are both older than 45, the 10 least incident-prone drivers are a mix of drivers in their 20s, 30s and 40s.

	GameSpy.com - Review
		Much like horse racing, NASCAR is often criticized as not being a real sport because the athletes are really the vehicles, not the humans controlling them.
		The problem with this argument is that most people have never sat behind the wheel of a car going 200 MPH for 400 laps, where just about everyone has tossed a football around or shot hoops.
		If EA's NASCAR Thunder 2003 is any indication, staying in control of a stock car is no easy task and the participants in the sport should be commended, if only for their ability to remained focused.

	Featuring NASCAR Thunder 2003 Review at ActionTrip
		NASCAR Thunder 2003 is the latest title in the serial, and it appeared for all modern gaming consoles and PC.
		Players who never before played a NASCAR simulation will have to spend some more time adapting to the game, as the cars here behave a bit different than the cars in other driving simulations.
		The large number of different tracks, some of the greatest names in racing and the smell of petrol you "feel" after being in the cockpit for some time are reason enough to play this game.

	Nascar Racing 2003 Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		In real NASCAR, a healthy budget for creative cheats and engineering the living crap out of your chassis and engine tend to fudge the process a bit, but even so the sport is remarkably competitive.
		NASCAR Racing from Papyrus gives teams no budgets and there’s no way to cheat, so it really is down completely to the skill of the driver.
		I mean, with the F1 rule changes and the turn-prohibiting nature of road courses (since you have to sacrifice the line to pass, or risk a pass by forcing yourself into a lane), it’s pretty much the only racing that has any passing left.

		NASCAR Racing 2003 Season has the distinction of having the best replay capability in sim racing, and maybe the best of any sim in any genre.

	GameSpy: NASCAR Thunder 2003 Review
		File NASCAR Thunder 2003 under "What the heck were they thinking?" It's not that it's a horrible game, though parts of it are indeed lousy.
		Gone is the extensive and deep career mode with the sponsorships, crew management, and R&D. Gone are the "lightning mode" challenges that let you relive historic racing moments, introduced by the actual drivers that were involved.
		NASCAR Thunder 2003's manual is generally superior, too, with more numerous and useful tips for both on-track tactics and off-track tweaking.

	NASCAR Thunder 2003 - PS2
		Conceptually probably the most basic of all forms of video games, however for every top flight, must have title there are literally dozens which range from mediocre to downright boring.
		NASCAR racing continues to grow, formerly the sport of southern good ‘ol boys, it has filtered throughout mainstream America and is now the single greatest sporting event in the US, both in attendance and TV popularity.
		2003 definitely takes a step forward over previous variations, as the modeling of the cars and detail in the tracks are all improved.

	NASCAR Thunder 2003 Review
		NASCAR is a racing league of stock cars (in other words, cars that look like normal cars but have twice the capabilities).
		NASCAR is usually on a stupid oval that you circle
		There are a few tracks that are a little more fun (called "road tracks"- but they really aren't on a real road), but the best thing to do is make the race length 2 or 3 percent so it only takes you eight laps at the most on these tracks.

	NASCAR Thunder 2003 Review - PlayStation 2
		NASCAR is the world of endless left turns, which seems like it would be pretty easy to make a game based around it and difficult to make improvements enough to warrant buying the one that comes out “next year”.
		Thunder 2003 definitely proved me WAY wrong, and I really was amazed at how different this one really is. NASCAR 98 got me into watching NASCAR, and this one is the type of game to get new racing players into watching it religiously as well.
		The realism aspect is awesome for someone like me who lives, breathes, and eats racing and NASCAR … but a younger player or novice to automobiles or racing may be kind of overwhelmed when they toss it in for the first time.

	The Armchair Empire - Playstation 2 (PS2) Reviews: NASCAR Thunder 2003
		NASCAR Thunder 2003 (NT2003) gives gamers the opportunity to experience a realistic driver’s perspective on a race, as opposed to other EA Sports titles where the game engine is built around the announcers and their perspective.
		It certainly is impressive, but some people will be distracted by not having the play-by-play to know what’s going on ahead of them.
		All in all, NASCAR Thunder 2003 is a very realistic simulation game, and those who are looking for an in-depth title will be satisfied, but those looking for a pick-up and play title will be disappointed.

	IGN: NASCAR Thunder 2003 Review
		I had a chance to chat with him on the phone recently, and it became clear that he was moving from the companies that were struggling to make money on PC sims, to a company which didn't depend upon its PC franchises in order to stay profitable.
		NASCAR Thunder 2003 answers this challenge by combining the PC expertise of ImageSpace (ISI), the developers of the EA's F1 series for the PC, with the audio/visual assets of the console teams, along with all the licenses EA's deep pockets can afford to secure.
		Of course, one of the first problems you face with a new NASCAR title is wondering how high to set the difficulty so that you get a good race.
