Pretty good arcade game.  That's all.

Good fake marketing by Electronic Arts.  "Revolution" is a great name to
make head turns and download it...  Makes arcade guys download it and
hard-core sim guys also...

Just a better Nascar 99.

Oh and a bonus ! Free virus !

The virus was in the Staccato Audio Engine Tool. (staccato.zip) It
was actually attached to the CarEngineSyntLet.exe that was within the zip
file. Just checked it out today and the virus has been
removed. Of course they have a nice little disclaimer right before you
download it, but they don't have the balls to admit it was
infected and warn previous downloaders how to get rid of it.

As for Nascar Revolution, I think it is going to be a fun "game" with great
graphics and sounds. I highly doubt EA will find a physics
engine with a realistic feel though. My guess is it will feel more like
NFS3 physics then anything else. More like the Playstation Nascar99 made for
the pc with added features. I would love to be
proven wrong, but I see no real evidence of a sim here. How about
a new demo release EA? One where we can change atleast a few options? If you
want to step up to the sim world you better be prepared.
