    On both the Xbox and PlayStation 2, EA Sports has brought the Thunder with authority as far as this race fan is concerned. I've played both versions and the Xbox version is the better of the two.

    The gameplay is absorbing, and you’ll find yourself learning quite a bit about the nuts and bolts of racing.

    An excellent stock car racing sim that cannot and should not moonlight as a mass appeal racing game.

    The career mode is very well implemented, and is something that should be found in more games like this.
