It features last year's complete 21-track roster, including the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the storied Daytona and Pocono circuits, which make their first-ever appearance in a Papyrus title. It incorporates no fewer than 76 real-life drivers and cars, including such luminaries as Jeff Gordon, Bobby Labonte, Mark Martin, and even the feared black #3 Goodwrench GM of Dale Earnhardt, whose untimely death followed the release of the game. Like earlier iterations, NASCAR Racing 4 showcases the world of top-level stock car racing, the Winston Cup series. In fact, everything about NASCAR Racing 4 is state of the art, from the improved menu interfaces with pop-up tooltips to the enhanced computer-driver artificial intelligence, the top-quality audio, and much more. It benefits from a new graphics engine that renders everything prior obsolete.
The game features a new and vastly improved vehicle physics model that makes the once impressive but now antiquated NASCAR Racing 2 and 3 cars seem like they were riding on rails. But NASCAR Racing 4 is far from just another upgrade. NASCAR Racing 4 distinguishes itself from competing products in the same way Papyrus' simulations always have-through a faithful attention to realism. The new, frightening crashes can now send a car up into the air Though it has occasional quirks, it is far superior to recent installments and makes for an unquestionably outstanding racing experience for NASCAR fans.
Its latest project, NASCAR Racing 4, is the glorious culmination of years of experience and expertise. Since then, Papyrus has almost single-handedly defined what an automobile racing simulation should be. It was 14 years ago that Dave Kaemmer founded Papyrus Design Group and began development of what is generally regarded as the first realistic racing game for the PC, Indianapolis 500: The Simulation.
