    NR2003 Online?


    Quite a few of us over at DSP have started running NR2003 races in a revival of sorts. The most common mods are either the stock Cup (which wouldn't be a mod at all, I guess), PWF Craftsman Trucks, or Aero88's. The racing is really good with fixed setups, especially in the 88's. It's just the actual driver count that lacks sometimes. Last night we had some pretty good duels over longer runs, and most of our races are in the 20% to 30% timeframe at 10:30EST. We don't have a set night, we're just sort of playing it by ear and starting whenever we can get some interest.

    We're interested in running as clean as possible, not necessarily a hot lap competition. If you're a seasoned vet or a brand-spankin' newbie, we don't really care as long as you don't try to run into other cars or force bad positions...going 3 wide into turn one on lap one in a 100 lap race would be forcing a bad position. Nobody will be crucified over it, but repeat attempts would probably be met with a bit of...resistance, shall we say?

    Anyway, now that we sound like a bunch of elitist pr*cks (and we're not, actually), I'm just trying to see if there's anybody that visits this forum that may be interested as well? I've run leagues in the past that had 20-30 drivers show up on a weekly basis, and my connection that I host it on is a 10MBit down/1MBit up line that seems to hold up very well.

    Any interest?

      I'm definitely interested in it. I just purchased a used Logitech Momo Wheel last night so hopefully I'll be able to control the car with that. I've been trying to drive the car with an Xbox 360 controller and there's just no hope for me doing it that way.

          i'll see if i can get my NR2003 working again. Might give it a try, could be a little tough switching back over. Sunday nights would be great.

          Dumb question #1 how do i find you guys, and what do i need to have?

            Hey, that's two questions!

            1. You can look in the forum at digitalsportspage.com. We post calls for "Poker Nights" of racing there. Terry may post here, too, to spread the word.

            2. This thread will show you everything you need:



            Hope to see you on the track soon!

              Going to run an Aero88 race tonight with server opening around 10:30PM PST, qual at 10:45. Probably somewhere relatively easy like Coca Cola or Daytona, see who shows up and make sure that it's fairly easy to keep it straight.

              Race type is a direct IP: 24.205.227.115
              Password is siam007

              We'll see how many people show, we'd like to get as many as we can (that can keep the cautions down).

                Re: NR2003 Online?

                Well i will be in next week some time. maybe sunday the 5th i think or 4th. I am upgrading to a 8800 GTS 640mb card, and another gig of ram, so i wont be able to get on until then.

                I would love to do some raicng on this again, its been a long long time.

                But i hope you guys are willing to give ARCA Sim Racing a try, i just have a good feeling about it.

                  When are you guys going to run another race? I've just gotten into this game in the last few months and after getting a wheel, I feel like I am ready to hop online and race. I've got all of the mods and whatnot, now just waiting to find a race.

                    We ran some on Friday and we're contemplating running another one soon...like tonight or tomorrow more than likely. We almost always run around the 10:30EST start time, so if you want, PM me and I'll give you the IP and password. Server's not always up, but the IP doesn't change so you can set it as a favorite.

                          Yeah we just ran a couple of nights ago. We consistently run the Aero88 mod, you'd just need to check over at Digital Sportspage for any NR2003 threads when they pop up.

                            Please join us, man! We're running at least two nights per week. As Terry said, check the forum at www.digitalsportspage.com for details.
