Days of Thunder the game that was made after the classic thrilling film that starred Tom Cruise in the film known as Cole Trickle

The story doesn't get much bigger than Cole Trickle as a young NASCAR driver needs to beat his 2 main rivals in the game Rowdy Burns and Russ Wheeler you travel to 7 world known circuits of the modern day NASCAR season and you race 8 times with 2 of those races at Daytona!!!

other than that there really isn't much story its best you watch the film to fully understand the game 

graphics are poor and for circuits like Daytona which only technically have 3 corners (2 banked turns and the home curved straight) you will actually have to turn 4 times which for me is a bit of a boo boo by the developers there also theirs not even a crowd its just a track nothing more

2 main sounds really when driving normal car engine sound changing up gear and down the gears and for when you crash otherwise its just music nothing more 

it can get a little addictive for those who like racing games even if it a poor racing game because it can be challenging

If you plan on winning every single race then get that thought out of your mind because my best winning streak is 2 in a row yes 2 and I'm good at this game when you don't win you will normally finish 2nd or 3rd but if your not good at the pit stops then that 3rd can easily become 4th or even 5th

as for the pit stops you will have to the tire changes yourself you will have to fuel the car up yourself and if you've taken damage from behind or rammed the car in front (car damage monitor will turn yellow) you have 3 tire personnel 1 to lift the jack so that the tires can be changed and the other 2 to change the tires when you go round to the other side it doesn't matter who jacks the car up but again it can't be the fuel guy nor the guy that will fix the damage

there is also 1 more thing with the pit stop sometimes which this also can be classed as a boo from the developers when pitting and your never too far in front sometimes you will pit in and instead of being overtaken while doing your car in the pits and all that  gets done you come out of the pits to see the other cars in front of you but you are not 2nd nor 3rd your still 1st if this happens this is what I call the instant win pit stop glitch as its very unlikely you'll be caught by the others and your pretty much 100% will win the race

OVERALL RATING? 5 

this for me was only given 5 because it can be addictive a little and fun for a short while if this wasn't so addictive this game would of been lucky to even get a 3 from me the game may look appealing by the box but when played it does turn out to be a bit of a poor game to be nice about it which is a shame
