    Have they improved the replay system? My 6 yr old loves the game but wishes he could jump to various cars to see crashes, passes, etc like NR2003 and not stay locked on his car only

They hooked me with the 1999 edition (not "3" but the title "1999 edition") way back then and of course I came back for 4 in 2001. I hate to admit it, but I never did get 2002 or 2003, long story short. I hear they improved on 4 a lot and that game was awesome to me so...

      A Papyrus title that gets overlooked IMO was NASCAR Legends. It used NASCAR Racing 3's engine but things were tweaked to represent the aero wars of 1970. I was able to play a demo and I kick myself 16 years later for not buying that title since it's an expensive needle in a haystack now (although eBay and Amazon can help find said needle) ah, I can still remember seeing it on an end cap at Target back in 1999. Yeah, anyway...
      First and only game I bought was 2003 Season, PC. No presentation to speak of, but that game was awesome, and the mods available keep it alive to this day.

      I often thought how awesome it'd be if they dove into Indycar. (I don't count Iracing. I mean, an entire game based on the IRL)

        Papyrus did some IndyCar games before the IRL existed, I think they were circa 1993 and 1995. They have Wikipedia pages and some links.

        Codemasters did IRL games based on 2002 and 2005, IIRC. 2002 was a good sim but I remember it looking terrible graphically. 2005 was a definite step up and looked to be headed in the right direction...but the bottom must've fallen out due to low sales or something. I had both games on the original Xbox.

        All that said, I'd like to see a dedicated IRL game again as well.Not like iRacing or Grid or Forza 5 but something with the real 2015 teams, tracks and drivers and focused on just IndyCar.

            Wait a minute, is this DLC for '14 or this its own game in a way? I might pick this up while waiting for Nascar '16 or whatever, but I don't have '14.

              I believe it's a standalone game which is basically 14 but with new season schedule, updated 2015 paint schemes, drivers, rules & enhanced online. That's why it's only $19.99 as it is not a newly designed game just an upgraded Nascar 14. This is more to hold people over til Nascar 16 is released in the future.

                Thanks for that link. Looks pretty up to date and has a few future stars (Jones and Chase E).

                I get what you mean, this place is all about Project CARS (which does interest me, to be honest) and Driveclub (which I'm not really in to).

                Anyway, I hope that they ironed out the issues with '14 as part of this...and unfortunately I don't see this game holding folks over until 2016. People are screaming at THE TOP OF THEIR ON-LINE LUNGS that this isn't being released for the new consoles...even if it was released for PS4 and XB1, people would continue to scream that it looks like a last gen game. No-win situation
