There really is NO WAY to get the game running back except Reinstalling NASCAR.
Just delete the NASCAR Directory,  and install it again.

Ok, here it goes, I downloaded a carset, and not following directions,
created a new dir. under cars for it, i placed it in and then started
windows.  It came back with a message of incomplete installation.  "Ok" i
said, Ill remove it and do it right, but first I just took it out, guess
what, it still wont go, ive took out all of the sets and put them in
individually, I cant even get nascar to run with any of them, I'm stumped.
  Is there a way to reinstall JUST cars because reinstalling the whole
game isnt an option.  If you can help at all PLEASE do.  I'd REALLY
appreciate it.
                   Thanks,

I'm not sure. Try the gameopts.cfg.in your file manager.Go in and look
all the way to the right and change the carset to cars94 or whatever.This
has worked for me.Good luck.

Not true. Delete the file GAMEOPTS.CFG. This will revert nascar racing
back to Cars94.

Why not?
Installing the game is very quick.   First save your personalized settings, and
re-install over the top... and replace them.

If you believe just your cars directories to be corrupted, copy them from the CD.

Just delete the "gameopts.cfg" file, and reboot.
