Game Information: The award-winning team that brought you the long g NASCAR Racing series of simulations has done it again. NASCAR Racing 3 includes 45 of your favorite Winston Cup and Busch Grand National drivers competing on 28 tracks, including the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, all updated to reflect the 1999 season.

Season 2 Background Info: Nascar3, along with AoE2 were an experiment to expand the games played at QGL events. Driving Sims have been getting more and more popular in Brisbane, with quality driving wheels finally becoming affordable. Nascar3 was chosen as the racing sim for this season because of the good combination of ease of use and a competitive racing environment.

Season 2 got off to a great start with 13 people participating in the beginning rounds. Keyboarders like BoBa and Ducker joined in on the action and competed fairly well for the wheel impaired. Up the front was pretty tight with 6 drivers jousting for the lead. After the second round the numbers thinned out a bit, leaving a large gap between the top 4 and the rest. As mentioned at the start of the season, the points given by the Nascar3 ranking system stretch all the way down through the competitors. This gives ample room for competitors to gain points as long as they compete. Not racing means no points and a sizable dent in your championship aspirations. 3rd round saw the top 3 solidifying their positions, while a charging Metal moved into 4th outright with several wins in the closing stages.

With everyone that had competed being eligible for the final race, and double points on offer, it will hopefully be a tight race to finish the season.
