Answer to both questions is No.  The following is from the server.txt file:

DEDICATED SERVER AND SIERRA.COM

By default the NASCAR? Racing 2003 Season's Dedicated Server will attempt to
register itself with sierra.com's multiplayer service.  If you are running
on a LAN or otherwise do not wish to utilize this feature, you will need to
disable the "to_sierra=1" line in the [Server] section of CORE.INI.  To do
this you would change the zero to a one "to_sierra=0".

STARTING THE SERVER

When running a NASCAR? Racing 2003 Season dedicated server, it is
recommended that the 3D configuration program be used to select the
specially designed "GDI (For Dedicated MP Servers)" renderer which should
allow the server to run on most any video card, and does not require 3D
acceleration.  After the game has been configured, run "C:\Papyrus\NASCAR
Racing 2003 Season\SERVER.EXE" or use the "Launch Dedicated Server" shortcut
in the NASCAR? Racing 2003 Season program group on your Start Menu.
