NR2003's 8 Biggest Flaws

[@bondedwithpotatoes0076]

My main issue is that when you do a season mode you can't have multiple paint schemes in a carset, because the points are tabulated differently. It should go by number and driver, not by individual car.

[@simracingmiscellaneous6287]

Yep, the in game points system gives points to the car which is so weird.

[@1888Wyatt]

That’s why you gotta use an external points scorer such as the ones on Nr2k3 Weebly or using Score4.

[@Race0892]

Another way around this is to export paint schemes and import them onto the specific car file being used in the season.

[@rt4838]

OMG this is is SO annoying

[@dennisbowen452]

honestly score4 is better than the ingame scoring thing BUT, i do agree

[@anthonyf.3009]

The NR2003 replay camera is still WAY WAY WAY better then Heat 4 and 5. I would have expected Heat 5 to have something similar to NR2003 but I guess not.

[@CBF65]

In #7 i actually had one daytona race where the outside line actually held their own and terry labonte won from the top. Probably the best plate racing I’ve had on this game

[@Squared77]

One of my biggest issues is how bad the AI can be at avoiding crashes. Whether it be getting clobbered 20 seconds after the wreck, or the way they keep bumping into one another creating 40mph big ones, the AI constantly get themselves into shenanigans. Just thought of another thing, flips never feel natural. Sure you can get weight-shifts and blowovers with some .ini manipulation but that only effects the player car and never the AI. Most of the time what should be a simple t-bone ends up pitching the car over. Despite some flaws I still love this game and its yet to be beaten even 17 years later!

[@simracingmiscellaneous6287]

This game is famous for crash compilations for a reason haha

[@zikalokof1challenge414]

The #7 problem is almost impossible to be sucessfuly resolved, you need to have a multi groove racing surface (concrete, asphalt and paint grip), and tweak those grips to give like the triple grip to the outside line, so the ai can hang around it, its quite disappointing considering that Nascar had a working outside line since pretty much the beggining of it, and Papyrus made a huge mistake not doing a good outside lane

[@piloticle2445]

Easily one of my biggest complaints about Nr2003 is the horrendously outdated force feedback compared to modern sims. Instead of relaying what your tires are feeling on the racing surface, it just pulls your wheel to the banking of the track. This can sometimes make certain tracks unnecessarily difficult as your car would get lose one way but the direction of the force feedback wouldn’t change

[@Logan912]

It’s similar to the forcefeedback in Grand Prix Legends (which makes sense because it’s the same developer.) To me, it’s like I’m having to react more to the body roll and suspension compression than anything else with the car which makes it a little vague and hard to get used to compared to modern sims.

[@scraps07]

I mean what do you expect from a game 2003

[@jc1424]

I played this game for the first time yesterday, and once it freed up there was no going back. Then again I don't use a wheel.

NASCAR Thunder 04, because it uses the rfactor engine, ends up being even better, not to mention that career mode, which could be created in rfactor (buying an upgrade to make the car better), its problem is the blipthrottle, every time it downshifts wheels slip

the AI under caution is what keeps me up at night. i’ve been wrecked too many times by cars trying to catch up to where they belong in line and not giving a damn about other cars in the way

[@Race0892]

Caution glitches are usually the biggest problem for me. Especially at tracks like Bristol. The A.I. take so long to get in order that most of the field becomes a lap down after making their pit stops.

[@Corvilux52]

Also this game was released in February of 2003 before the season even started. It probably does a better job “simulating” how a 2002 car would perform over a 2003 car. There were updates throughout the year, but even at that, the cars are more 2002.5 than anything. There’s a lot of issues in this game, inaccurate tracks and iffy physics, etc. it’s to be expected from a game this old. If you go into it expecting hyper realism, you’re gonna be disappointed. Just have fun with it. Also, I was working on a career mode that was a hybrid between actual player ability and an offline mode. I’ve showed you the RSSR&D stuff before I believe.

[@wesleyamancio3686]

[@nicholastrainssd75m45]

My main problem is adjusting the AI difficulty. The basic 71% is way to easy on Championship mode I am having 19 win seasons and I struggle to find that sweet spot if I turn it up too high the AI cars drive away from me to like a 8 second lead only 2 laps in. Would be nice if there was a easier way to have close side by side racing were everyone is pretty much competitive

[@Corvoreviews]

about the lapped down cars that's actually not a problem, but a feature (I'm talking about the lap car not giving the place for the leader) the racing back then was like this, you had a lot of guys who were known for not giving the place and making the life of the leader miserable, because there was no lucky dog rule to prevent this

my main issue has always seemingly been short tracks and slow speed corners like chicanes as the ai loves to slam into the outside wall when running side by side at short tracks.. and i mean hard. and dont even get me started on when a chicane comes up on a road course and the ai runs itself off the track and loses ages of time, made worse when running side by side. it makes some tracks completely unusable

[@Trainlover1995]

My biggest gripe is the fact the code is hardlocked. Every mod can only have a maximum of four car models, meaning that if a mod represents an era where there were more than four manufacturers, mod makers have to get creative (for example, in Aero88 and Cup90, Oldsmobile and Buick share a car model). And the worst part is that nobody can even begin to try cracking the code without iRacing setting their lawyers on them.

[@thepinkplushie]

Surprised neither of these were mentioned but by far the biggest flaws with the game in my opinion are: 1) Race back to the line. The rule was discontinued in 2003 and was widely regarded as a horrible, dangerous and unsportman-like rule for years prior to that. Should have been an option you can turn off because it screws you over if AI wrecks you, and often makes wrecks way worse (Just like in real life). 2) You can manually throw cautions but only if computer controlled cautions are turned on, making it a useless function. This has no excuse. Developed in 2002 or not, it's a massive oversight on the devs' part and one I can see no justifcation for. If yellow flags are turned off you should still be able to manually throw out cautions. It's absolutely essential for multiplayer with multiple humans and AI. Yes if only humans are playing you can just have a player pacecar and do yellows yourselves, but if AI are in the mix you have to be able to throw cautions when you want (the computer is way too quick to throw them, often throwing them when the last car in the line spins into the infield and no other cars are effected). This very nearly kills the game for me. I only have 2-3 friends who I play this game with. I can't fill out even a half field with humans. We need AI in the mix and simply put, the computer cautions, combined with race back to the line can ruin a 50 lap race for us. We aren't dedicated sim racers, we play for fun. I pray some day someone manages to reverse engineer the code and makes it open source so we can have more comprehensive mods to get rid of these oversights.

[@Trainlover1995]

Nobody can reverse engineer the code without iRacing getting pissed.

I think this is a really good video, showcasing the flaws in what seems like the perfect game. However I noticed that most of these, can be fixed using third party tools, such as track sandbox or freecam. One flaw I think also deserves to be on this list, maybe as an honorable mention, is not being able to turn off disqualification. It gets pretty annoying when playing with friends online

[@jagerreal]

I feel as #7 is explainable, on the outside is either jam packed, to tight on turns where a car gets spun and kills every other car, or causing a big one on the tri oval, the inside is more free, if someone causes a big one, move to the grass, if someone is giving you a bump, well idk how to solve that on the inside or outside, but I fell like inside is just the better lane.

[@zikalokof1challenge414]

Indeed it is, but not for the msot of the time (talking in realistic terms), on the superspeedways the lane with more draft tend to be the faster one at the time, and tracks like Atlanta have the slingshot from the outside that obv isnt possible to do on NR2003 cuz of the inside line that is overpowerful, they just got it right on Martinsville that pretty much the inside prevails all the time, but they took that Martinsville kind of situation to the whole calendar

Is there a way I can eliminate my driver when I sim races 3. Is there any good scoreboard mods, anything on the screen that I can use to look at while the race is live. A ticker 4. The best way to find original cup mod skins (past and present and maybe fictional ones too) 5. Good Fun Fantasy Tracks and Where to find them? 6. A very easy way of scoring your races outside of Season Mode 7. Name and Number above the car as it is going by you, or while watching in spectator mode 8. Way to skip Cautions as if its like Thunder 2004 or any other EA/704 games 9. Why Certain Tracks Won't Work and will cancel weekend

[@simracingmiscellaneous6287]

I love the questions, I will try my best to answer them all here: 1. Not that I know of, you can only use the accelerate button to make time pass faster during the race. 2. Not that I know of. 3. There are scoreboard mods (UIE by Armory Digital) but as far as I know tickers only work for recordings or streams (they use GNL.tv and OBS) 4. This is my encyclopedia for NR2003, just scroll down to Original Cup Mod and you will see carset links: nr2k3.weebly.com/mods.html 5. This is a tough one because there are so many tracks out there and some websites are gone. NNRacing has a lot of goofy stuff: www.nnracing.com/filelibrary.asp?pagenumber=1&sortby=22&filesim=NASCAR%20Racing%202003&filetype=Tracks However I will say that if see a particular track in a video and can't find it you should ask around (NR2003 subreddit, my Discord, etc.) and somebody will usually try to help out. 6. I use nr2k3.weebly.com/scoring.html Just press export on the race weekend screen and upload the file that shows up in your exports_imports folder. 7. Only the ICR mod does this. adracingdesigns.com/ There is a tutorial for how to set up the displays kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXXPgYaejayohJI 8. Not that I know of. 9.

I have just one more question. I would love to combine old drivers some in their original paint schemes and have them race with newer drivers. Examples include Newman in the Altel 12 and Elliott in his Napa #9, Harvick in the #29 not the #4. I have been searching around the internet and have been trying to uncover gems. I have experimented with MENCS19 and BR15 Gen 6 and ofc the Original Cup Mod for variations hoping to find the best of them.

I experienced a couple of these in the last race I had. I was racing late models at the new Nashville track and I was leading but in the middle of lap traffic. One lap down car didn't yield and pinned me down exiting a turn. We banged doors and my car started going out of the control while the other just kept on going. I saved the car from hitting a wall too hard, and the AI racing back to the line was actually really great at avoiding a wreck. A few months ago, racing with the MENCS19 mod at APT's Denver oval, a caution came out several laps in. I caught up to the pace car and slowed down. Austin Dillon did not slow down when he caught up and ran into me at full speed.

Oh, I fucked up. Forgot to tell you, the issue with AI not passing is caused by ratings. By default, the Papyrus carset has the ratings set very similar across the board to give more diverse results, but a byproduct of it is slower cars being just fast enough to fuck over a faster car. It’s kinda the “One thing to catch another to pass” mantra. You can of course change the ratings or use a program like NRatings, but the issue is you’ll almost always have one car that’s super OP and can outright win almost every race of a 36 race season. You really have to know what you’re doing to make ratings work. If you don’t, it’s borderline sadomasochism to get the game to co-operate.

[@simracingmiscellaneous6287]

Could be a few things that are giving you a penalty, there is a speed limit on pit road so make sure you are not going too fast. The spotter should say what the limit is when you're approaching the pit lane. In addition, after you leave the pits you are not allowed to merge onto the track until a certain point, usually on the exit of turn two at most tracks. So try staying on the bottom until you get to the backstraight. If you are still having trouble you can actually clear a black flag for yourself with a chat command. Pause and go into "Options" > "Other" and change one of the autochat messages to say: !clear_black #101$ (Replace 101 with the number of the car you are driving) Then you should just be able to press that key on your keyboard and the black flag will go away.
