NASCAR Thunder 2004 puts gamers behind the wheel in a world where grudges and
alliances mean the difference between victory lane and disaster. You're no
longer just racing a track, you're racing a pack of 42 real world stars who
think for themselves, remember your every move, and aren't afraid to pay you
back. Revenge may be around the next corner or at the next race, as you scream
through 23 authentic tracks or hone your road racing skills on 11 fantasy
tracks. The key to success is building alliances that carry from race to race
and season to season in an improved career mode that challenges drivers to
manage sponsors, teams, garages, and crews while building a 20-year racing
legacy. Online or on your own, racing just became a contact sport.
