Probably because of the new plate package in 2002 release. These cars feel
like sludge and the big boys look like they are sludgin along as well. IMO
the plate tracks have always felt slow. Try running Coca Cola and see if it
gives you the same sensation or lack of, since it is a BIG yet unrestricted
track.
The drivers say that Daytona/Talladega do not have much of a sensation of speed
compared to any of the other tracks because of the sheer size and ease of
driving. Atlanta is supposed to have the greatest sensation of speed, and it
does feel damn fast even in N2002 to me. :)

I wonder how much of it is due to being a plate track. I know IRL(tm)
when I used to take my GT out for a drive, the sensation of speed was
lacking severley, whereas when I took my road car out, at the same
speed, my daily driver looked like it was doing at least 20ks quicker
than the GT.
Now, it was suggested to me that it was the audible cue that was mostly
it was doing alot more work and hence the audible cue was giving the
impression that my speed was faster.
Tally and Dega do look slow and I think it's due to the wide straights
and lack of audible cues.
Cheers,
Rod.
