As a Jeff Gordon fan, this man’s hatred for Jeff Gordon is incredibly comedic
lol
People hate winners lol
Bruh I became a jeff Gordon fan because my dad hated him so much. Have no clue why other than he was dale sr's rival
He is almost always over powered in the EA games so it’s easy to get mad and hate him lol
I use to think the 31st lightning challenge would be the 2001 daytona 500 for Michael waltrip. 10 year old me was wild mate
As a kid I always looked at the blacked out “Richard Petty 8 Champions” video tucked away in the menus. In my adolescent brain I imagined being the most incredible video ever made.
Last year I said fuck it, and started grinding away at 8 championships to see the forbidden fruit that was the “8 championships” video. I scratched and clawed and finally won my 8th championship. The moment had come, and I was finally gonna see the video I had waited so long to see.
……It was a 3 second video of him congratulating me for winning 8 chips. I should have just fucking RUclipsd it. 😂
The fact that Jimmie Johnson wasn’t included is absolutely gold. The irony of it all is well earned 😂
Wow I can’t believe nascar didn’t add safer barriers or change the winston name until 2012. Crazy stuff
>Rear Tire Carrier Sneezes
>Entire Pit Crew Fired
Rick Hendrick: "I don't think we'll ever get there"
Also Rick Hendrick: (Gets a combined 11 Championships in 2013 and 269 wins in 2021.)
At the time of writing this, Hendrick won his 299th win at the 2023 Southern 500.
@@bwbuske And the 300th win is near.
@@JustGenius2001 And has happened.
@@Roggie249 Still, Byron should've won the 2023 Cup Series Championship. Plainey is bland and dull to be a Champion.
@@JustGenius2001agreed he doesn't deserve it
When he said Todd Bodine probably retired for the trucks I thought I heard Todd Bodine probably retired for the drugs.
You can win the Daytona 500 pretty easily in your first season by exploiting gear ratios and revving the shit out of the engine, gets you insane speed over the ai. The winning purse is such a nutty amount to get as a starting team
The irony of Atlanta being his worst track but being sponsored by Georgia Power is pretty funny
My exes name was Marina, her common sense was like a dingy, slow and rusty😂😂😂

Incredible. Just Incredible.
I won 8 championships in Legend difficulty with 36 race seasons and it took about 2 years at first. But I'm redoing it on my PC and I'm in S4 trying to win my second title.
I should update this comment, I was in S5 of the career mode on the PS2 emulator but they decided to add something called Hardware Download Rate or whatever the hell it's called and it completely broke the emulator and Thunder 03 had so many graphical errors and display errors so I had to swap to Dolphin Emulator and soon restarting it again.
Hendrick has like 300 wins and 15 championships and in 2002 he’s like “ petty you’re god I be peasant “ 😭😭
Almost half of those are from a single driver though… and as you can tell by him not even being in the challenge; they didn’t have a whole lot of hope for poor Jimmy Johnson.
Tying both the greats for most championships with 7, including 5 in a row, 83 wins… I could go on… he is undoubtably the best of his era and I’d dare to say all time considering he’s won more than Earnhardt, more poles, and top 5’s and Petty’s whole career is mostly bullshit… yea he’s credited with 200 wins but that’s like saying the Bears are the best football team because they played against what essentially amounts to middle schoolers for half their existence… and honestly Earnhardt can be considered kinda the same way. I think it’s far more difficult to consistently win than it ever has been.
Hendricks also had Jeff Gordon during his hay-day who was one of the best of his time (having third most wins of all time and 4 championships), plus Mark Martin, Casey Kahne, and Terry Labonte who were each great in their own right… Hendrick’s team has always been one to beat but directly after this game came out they just dominated.
I put hundreds of hours into this game during long Texas summers as a kid. This was hilarious to watch. Loved it.
*just got this game at my local game store for 5$ new, man this game is timeless, way to much fun to be had, can most definitley recommend this gem.*
Still play it on emulation but dirt to Daytona is still the best Nascar console game of all time with thunder 04, chase 05, and thunder 04 being very close.
@@happyloaf *just bought thunder 04,05, & dirt to daytona at my local retro game store all for 30$, thank you for inspiring me to game on these awesome gems !!*
ah yes, The Place™, my favorite race track
This video reminds me of my reverse championship I did. I would run the pace car and turn cautions off and cause demo derbies. Last car surviving was the “winner” of the race
Ran a whole season that way and manually tracked the points under the WC format
Do you remember who won?
Your mid race commentary is great you should be in the fox booth 😆 lol
I wish they could remaster this game as is...this game was peak NASCAR Console gaming. Sure the graphics weren't great but all the in game content compared to today was insane.
I understand the sentiment you have with this game but realistically, there won't be a remaster cuz EA doesn't have the NASCAR license. Heck, I wish that EA could remaster NFS Carbon but I know deep down inside it won't happen😔
Gordon inconvenienced you once and then blew 3 straight motors.😂
I clicked on this video by accident. And I have discovered few new things. 1. You are entertaining. Subbed. 2. This game is probably something I should have heard about because its SO DETAILED in terms of features it’s ridiculous for its time, maybe, I can’t say for sure.
This was the first game I ever had on my gamecube when I was like 5 years old. I was absolutely terrible at it from what I recall but it sparked my passion for simracing, it's amazing to see how well it holds up by today's standards. Great video!!
Lol Eli Gold retired to slide back in college girls’ DMs
This speedrun was amazing!
I ended up enjoying this way more than I thought I would
Thymes Waystedd 😂 Brilliant.
Accidentally destroyed , yes that's it. Something broke.
this games physics and damage models are somehow still better than any nascar game in the last decade
I used Dale Earnhardt Sr to win his 8th championship in order to unlock the 31st challenge
You forgot Ketchup Mayo,Mustard,Relish,Gravy etc. There was a lot more sauces
Rick said he didn’t think he’d ever get to 270 something wins and 10 championships. He was WAAYYYY OFFF LOL!
This video has now got me set on doing this on Dolphin, thanks man in advance for the hours of my life I’m not getting back. Great video though, really good quality for such a small channel
i havent laughed so hard at commentary in a long time😂 enjoyed it, man!
This was the very first racing game I ever played. 5 years old.
This was the funniest thing I’ve watched on RUclips in a long time…I was rolling throughout. You’ve got yourself a new sub!
This video is a gem, I ran across this for some reason, and subscribed right away! This was my first real racing game and my brothers and I always talked about playing it again. Great content, keep up the great work!
bro your channel is so criminally underrated, keep it up :)
This popped up on my feed. Man, I LOVED these games as a kid. 2002-2005 was the golden era to me. Great video!
Using Dale Earnhardt Sr in season mode will get you the challenge
This was a really good video!
I got the pole based on nothing but skill alone obviously. That make me laugh pretty hard. You got a sub from just because of that haha.
Excellent video man just love this game in general and respect to the grind
This game had like 3 whole songs on it! I love Deep Purple!
I mean Steppenwolf
I appreciate you doing this so that I never have to.
This is the first time I've ever seen this challenge. My game would always freeze when I selected it.
Awesome vid btw
Incredible video, I enjoyed this. This is an awkward comment. Not as awkward as that cutscene at the end with Petty though.
They should've put tiburon super speedway behind this challenge a very fitting reward
Let’s gooo!!! I’ve been waiting
dunno how I got here but this was super entertaining. great job.
22:58 lmao
"But i got the upper hand" 😂 gold
for all tracks, set your car up for as low of front springs as the car will go without bouncing and set the rear springs to 100. for all tracks except sonoma, the short tracks and new hampshire, set downforce low as it'll go. put tires at 15psi everywhere but daytona and dega, where you want it at 30. adjust wedge as needed to get the handling right. congrats on getting pole in most races even in the rookie season and finishing real well most/all races.
this works on all the ea nascar games for ps2/xbox/gamecube, in fact it's even more broken in later entries.
This was very entertaining to watch, you've earned a sub from me bud!
The limp in collective lmfao. I love that
15:52 a car into the fence 😮
The real Sauce Boss
You somehow predicted your beef with jeff in thunder 2004
This pure gold 😂
Jeff Gordon was my favorite driver.
Jimmie saw this, new he was omitted, and said "fuck it, im just gonna win 7. try and stop me"
I had no idea this existed
Yeah, I definitely gave up doing this as a kid lol. Also love the idea of a 100 year old man doing all this lol
How is Frank Kimmel racing with cup cars lol
i don't know why but these older racing games are so much better than modern stuff. I have a really old PS1 EA World Superbike game that still just holds my interest far more than anythng recent. Graphics these days are amazing but when u sit down & play modern stuff it's just soulless
By far the best nascar game ever made
I absolutely fucking love the intro to this video 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yup, that's Nascar Thunder in a nutshell LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Can't forget running guys down into the barrels at Martinsville
i hope this comes off as a compliment; you've got the presence of someone with a much bigger audience. wouldn't be surprised if that's in your future
you gotta play thunder 04 and do some lightning challenges
I never played Nascar 2003 but I did play Nascar 2006 and both games play way better than any modern Nascar game (Thanks to you motorsport games!)
It’s possible to win the Daytona 500 and the championship as a rookie on legend. 36 race season. 5% race length w/pit stops
Johnson wasn't included at the end because he said it was Hendricks 2000 team. Not 2002
19:38 should’ve let mark win, just cause lol.
The driver is 100 years old and a rookie.
Gotta start in your prime
Found this by accident.
"Jeremy Mayfield exploded...for some reason."
Subscribed!
Career mode was goated.
This game still looks solid in 2023
LIFE ON THE HIIIGHWAAAY
Pit Road l screwed me again
this so cool i love this game on original xbox
Nice video man. I know playing with the gear ratios on legend difficulty can make life a lot easier, even in career mode. 30 years old and first time I've seen that lightning challenge myself 😂
My first nascar game. I was 6 years old
can we please bring back this much effort in nascar games i stg thunder still tops any of the garbage made today
Also DO NOT by this game for ps2 unless you have a wheel. It’s unplayable on the ps2 controller. With xbox version the controller makes it playable plus you can use your downloaded music in game.
This game looks better than heat 5
The nostalgia…
Troi Hayes
Its like civvy but for racing games. Have a sub
MAN whatever you did the game looks amazing
2003 is the best in my opinion
This without Race Rundown feels so odd 😂
video so good I picked up a copy of thunder '03 to play on my xbox
it's pretty fun so far but damn do i SUCK ass at road courses lmao
Im a Gordon fan and can’t stop laughing hahahahha
How do you keep pit road from screwing you. I just started 05 for the xbox og. I had to buy a new controller and the brooks adapter.
God bless America Online
How do the graphics look so good?
Using the Dolphin Emulator you can upscale the game's resolution.
@@MarkLeiffer You should grab the Restoration Project (Beta) textures, makes the game look even better
Atlanta is my worst track too on that joint
This is the best thing I've ever seen.
love the Video but lets get you a pop filter. Them plosives are driving me insane
At the very end of my newest video I tested out some changes to how I'm recording audio, hopefully that helped some of it.

How do you unlock Richard petty
Richard is actually one of the first thunder plates you unlock. Basically, just complete some lightning challenges and it should unlock pretty quickly.
Thank you
