RewiredMind.com have posted a review of Ford Racing 2 giving it 7/10:

You see, I has my mind made up before the I put the disc in the drive. The game was to be released at the £20 pricepoint or thereabouts, the release was delayed and delayed again. All of the signs were pointing to Ford Racing 2 being a poor game. I really should try to be more of an optimist. Had I not had to play the game for review, it would have passed me by and to be honest, that would have been a great shame.

NASCAR Thunder 2004 Review @ GameSpy
Reviews/Previews | NASCAR Thunder 2004 | By Paul on 31 October 2003 05:31

GameSpy have posted a review of NASCAR Thunder 2004 giving it 4/5:

Until recently, there was only one name you needed to know if you wanted the best NASCAR sims on the PC: the NASCAR Racing series by Papyrus. The series became a legend in its own time, thanks to its nuanced physics modeling, close attention to detail, and gorgeous presentation. Sadly, the series has come to an end, though it went out with a bang earlier this year with the superb NASCAR Racing 2003 Season. For now, Electronic Arts is the only game in town where NASCAR sims on the PC are concerned. Its last PC NASCAR game, NASCAR Thunder 2003, left a lot to be desired, but it's taken a huge step in the right direction with the NASCAR Thunder 2004, creating an exciting racing sim.
