The only disappointing thing about Papyrus' latest NASCAR Racing game is that it will likely be the last one. That's right'after years of making genre-shaping NASCAR simulations under the NASCAR racing title, Papyrus is hanging up their helmets. The company might come out with future race games, but not under the Racing title, which is too bad because no other racing sim has affected this genre as much.
Racing 2003 continues to excel with unbelievably detailed graphics that capture the entire NASCAR experience and earth shaking sound effects that still capture the guttural growls of high-performance engines. Because of the exceptional strength of past NASCAR Racing titles, 2003 does little to change the basics of the game. Instead, the biggest changes are the addition and update of the year's drivers, teams and sponsors.
There are some minor tweaks to gameplay and a few flaws that continue to be overlooked. Racing 2003 now includes something called adaptive AI which basically means that when toggled, drivers automatically adjust to your driving skill to make sure you're almost always in the middle of the pack. Updated physics models make the already unbelievable realistic feel of the game that much more over the top and new accumulative windshield muck also adds to the realism. Another new graphic feature is the addition of glare. Now, when racing during a bright afternoon, a driver can be temporarily blinded by the light or perhaps distracted by its beauty in early evening or late morning. Online play remains as hardcore as ever, supporting up to 42 live players in one match and endless ways to get ranked among the best cyber-drivers around.
Although Papyrus strives to make NASCAR Racing 2003 Season accessible to even the most inexperienced of drivers, this game continues to be made for the hardcore racing sim fan. Only buy Racing 2003 if you have the time and desire to learn the finesse of cornering and stroking the most out of an engine, not if you're just looking to run a few laps in an ultra-realistic setting.

If you look in the right places, there are more solid copies of NR2003 that can be downloaded and used, seems MyAbandonware's version has flaws. I do not use this copy of the game and got mine elsewhere, however, I will give you instructions that should allow to play the game.
If you're using an iso, just get WinCDEmu, a very simple not shady program that makes virtual iso drives, works like a charm. After mounting, run the installer, or if you really want to, run autorun and then open the installer for that burst of nostalgia when it comes to getting a new game from the 2000s.
Run the installer like normal, when you get to the much needed key, there is a universal one that is in all copies.
RAB2-RAB2-RAB2-RAB2-8869
Continue through installation like normal, now, when you get the game, don't run it yet, you need the nocd patch. Grab the nocd exe file and drop it into the nr2003 folder, allow it it overwrite, or you could keep the cd exe for whatever reason. Also install both patches, the 1.0.2.1 and its fix.
There are one or two final hoop(s) you must go through to start the game. Depending on the OS, you must go over to compatibility settings and set it to Windows XP, on modern systems, the game will shut down right after the cut scenes. If you're still having issues, you may have to disable Data Execution Prevention, also known as DEP, which may require you to enter the BIOS and turn it off.
Bing bang boom, NR2003 is now modable and for your gaming pleasure.

I've downloaded and redownloaded this file like ten times and every single time the game won't run because of some missing .dill files.

This game was Papyrus' swan song to NASCAR after EA Sports got the exclusive rights to the sport. In retaliation, Papyrus released the popular 1.2.0.1 patch that allowed you to mod the game as you please. Since then, NR2003 is still used widely to this day and is figured more of a free version of iRacing since the source code is the core of it. The modding community, while somewhat infamous, is what keeps this game alive. EA would throw away their license after 2009, 6 years later after releasing more and more disappointing releases since NASCAR Thunder 2004.
For any racing fan, and any guy who likes making art and tinkering around with game code, this is the game for you, this game is bar none compared to the rest. Have fun with this game, I enjoy it immensely.

Ok this is Fun! Patch the game first (1201) then use the CD patch (1201) for it. Ignore the 1.0 version NOCD file! Nglide (www.zeus-software.com/downloads/nglide) is how you then get it to work on Win7 and up.

Can we get a RIP version for this?

I still have the CD for this game. I made the Duff Beer car in Photoshop and used to drive that when racing. Even all the small stickers on the car were products from The Simpsons (Laramie, Lard lad, etc.)
