They are probably the two worst drag racing games ever produced. If you want a good drag racing game, find a copy of Burnout: Player's Choice Edition from Bethesda (www.bethsoft.com) *-*-*-*-*-*-* Todd Walker http://twalker.d2g.com Canon Pro90IS: http://twalker.d2g.com/pro90/index.htm *-*-*-*-*-*-*

Well everyone has an opinion, The graphics and the driving model in the burnout games are the worst of any driving sim I have ever played. Cars bouncing up and down on coil over shocks that seem to be 4 feet long does not seem very real to me. NHRA2 is a vast improvement over the first NHRA, and Main Event has not been released yet. If your computer has the horsepower then you will find the graphics in NHRA2 to be awesome. While the single player may seem to get boring after awhile you will need to do a lot of it to get some tune-ups saved, Because the online racing is great and the racers are very tough indeed. Of course this is MY opinion,lol. BTW Main Event will include Pro Stock cars and trucks. So you will need to be tough on that 1-2 shift. The BEST twenty bucks I EVER spent on a PC sim.
