u mean w/o Nascar right?  GO to the us pits, there is a tutorial on how to make your replay files
into mpeg movies, but it takes a long time something like 15 minutes per 1 minute of replay
depending on the speed of your machine.

make your replay files

Because in N4 you literally have to do a screen capture of a playing replay
and then convert it into the compressed format of your choice. A real pain
in he behind but is the only way. The main reason this is so is because the
replay file is just a bunch of code that requires the game graphics to be
used to display in addition to all the time and track data for each driver
for each session, it isn't simply a video file.

Apparently NR 2002 has a 'replay editing' feature, no word on external
output options has been forwarded as of yet.

Oddly, Papyrus Nascar Racing for the Mac has output to a QuickTime file...

GPL2avi converts GPL and N4 replays to avi files.

Just do a search for gpl2avi
