Game Review

NASCAR Racing 2 is a racing sim created by Papyrus Design and published by Sierra On-Line for PC in 1996.

It was the second game in the popular series of NASCAR Racing, started in 1994 and ended with NASCAR 2003.

Developed and designed by John Wheeler, the new game represented a big step ahead compared to the predecessor. NASCAR 2 introduced several changes and improvements, including an entirely new game engine. It was also the first game of the series to support 3D acceleration; the DOS version was compatible with the 3Dfx Voodoo Graphics card.

Thanks to improved graphics, physics, and sounds, matched with an impressive AI of the opponents, NASCAR Racing 2 was able to create incredibly realistic experiences. It's more a simulation than an arcade, but this doesn't mean it cannot provide a lot of fun.
