The NASCAR Thunder 2003 Gameplay, for being a retro simulator of the NASCAR category, the players fight against the difficult artificial intelligence (AI) for obtaining the best position in the race for a pre-established number of laps, depending of the event that is disputed. Within NASCAR Thunder 2003 we have different game modes, one known as Single mode or one player, where we have the opportunity to select our preferential pilot and the circuit, in addition to configuring the different normal options such as the number of laps to dispute. , the aggressiveness of the AI, the temperature of the track at the time of running the race, the number of AI, among others. That is to say, that the Single mode we have to fight with the AI to achieve Victory.
The second mode is the Multiplayer, where split screen mode is available, which gives the opportunity to play against our friends or anyone in the world, with a number of up to 4 runners. In this mode there is the opportunity to activate and add the presence of AI, but if we want to only run against real people, then we have the option to deactivate them again. Within Multiplayer mode there are also two modes available, one is the Quick Race that allows up to 4 competitors to participate in a race created with certain configurations that I mentioned earlier.
Another Mode present the game is the Championship or full season, where we must travel the entire 2003 NASCAR calendar and thus fight for the drivers' championship, but as only you can compete in this mode is with Artificial Intelligence, as many players do not This mode is so interesting, but nevertheless it is less important. In the Season Mode, we must also configure the normal options of the game. In this mode you must go through the 36 dates that comprise the 2003 calendar of the Winston Cup.

As far as the Graphic and the sound of the game are concerned, they are well made, with a very good graphic section for the time, with the textures of the tracks, cars and pilots, well created. In addition, we have good lighting and reflection of the cars. As far as the sound of the game is concerned, it is very good, with the roar of the engines, both in the outer camera and in the car cabin. We also have the sound of Spotter, who tells us everything that happens on the track, whether it's the lap times and the cars that are around us.
In Conclusion, NASCAR Thunder 2003 is an excellent game, which is responsible for simulating the 2003 NASCAR championship, with great difficulty in terms of driving, due to being one of the best race simulators of the time, with good graphics and a great sound. The best of the game is the Multiplayer mode, in which we can play with up to 4 friends in split screen, as well as activate or deactivate the presence of Artificial intelligence in races. If you like or are interested in racing games and NASCAR, then I invite you to try this great video game.
