I think it would be awsome if EA stopped making NASCAR games. I agree, NASCAR Racing 2003 Season was and still is the best NASCAR game ever made. They addressed not only the sim side of the game but the arcade side as well. Both were great racing engines. So, where is Sierra & Papyrus when we need them the most?

Its amazing what a community can do.

I play a motocross racing game that no longer gets support (MX vs ATV, 4 years old) but a small number of guys are now making a new, mod version from the original game.

Nascar racing: 2003 season is still the best Nascar sim there is.
Without a question NR2003 kicks the crap out of any EA game released since they got the exclusive licence. However I do love Nascar Thunder 2004.

I think SimBin(guys that made Race Pro, GTR, etc..) would be a good dev team to make a Nascar game.

Yup and be prepared to way too much for it. While the game is good, and the mods do keep the game alive and kicking, I don't know if paying upwards of $80 or more is worth it.

but if you do sites,
masgrafx.com
bhmotorsports.com

to add to that:

rainbowpaintdesigns.net (a lot of cars/pit crews for download)
setup-guru.com (for track setups)
setupswap.com (another site for setups)
revampedreloaded.com (updated tracks)
saferbarrierproject.com (another site for track updates)
superspeedway.net (a lot of mods, including the COT mod, need to register to download the mods, it's free)
