NASCAR Legends Simply N3 in Old Clothes?

To those who have both sims, I was wondering if you'd give thoughts about
whether NASCAR Legends has it's own "feel", or if it's just N3 with a
different look.  Is there enough difference between the two to say that
they're different sims?

Absolutely a different feel.  I can feel the longer wheelbase, the cars are
more resistant to sharp turns.  I can feel the gobs of torque, I can
powerslide out of a turn.  I can feel the increased weight of the cars,
directional changes require more input.  Gas hogs ,bigtime.
Tire killers, bigtime. Same sim, different look, different feel.

Absolutely.....I ran a full race at Atlanta last night in NL, and I
really had to drive trough the corners with the throttle alot.....was
great, I was fighting for the win with Buddy "The Fastest Man Alive"
Baker and Dave "Mr. Wingtip" Marcis when I got caught up in a
multi-car crash on the back stretch.....I wanted to cry when I saw
what was left of my prettly little Plymouth......

Seems very different to me. I noticed that the cars are alot harder on tires
and feel alot looser. They also have a terrible understeer (I also stink at
setting up the car!). They do seem heavy. I find it harder to drive than N3.
It is a very cool game and a must have for a sim buff. Only down side I see
is when running with the super-birds the fps take a bit of a hit. I guess
the big wing eats up the ram.................
