NASCAR Racing 2003 Season

What works

- Rendering on OpenGL works perfectly, and continues to be the optimal rendering choice.

- Rendering on DirectX is improved with no performance degradation, but visual glitches occasionally occur; these range from a missing black background from the GUI drop-down menu options, to a visual glitch during a race which appeared for about 3 seconds as a big X-shaped division in the screen with different shader values for each quadrant. 

- Installation, patching, NoCD patch installation all went flawlessly

- Opponent manager

- AI Singleplayer races

- Configuring options

- Logitech F310 controller works plug and play

- Logitech Driving Force GT works plug and play with force feedback, but degree of rotation is locked to 180 and must be set externally somehow

- Series mods (Team Om3ga's cup2000 used for testing)

- Sound mods (Petty's V8 used for testing)

- Track mods (Daytona_1999 used for testing)

- Configuring .ini files
