    The level of detail in the simulation of engines, suspension, chassis, and everything else that goes into making a champion drag racer is unmatched, but there just isn't very much to do in the game.

    The problem lies in the fact the sights and sounds included in IHRA 2004 are completely sub-par which leaves player with little more than an advanced drag car setup program.

    For a sim, the tracks and vehicles don't look all that great. There is a definite lack of detail on the tracks which makes you feel as though you're at a practice track instead of an actual drag race competition.

    Lifting your dining room table two inches off the ground and watching whatever's on it slide off the end would produce more thrills than anything in this game.

I like it becasue I can actually use it as a rough simulation for how my I wouldnt buy this game unless you are a drag racing enthusiast. I like it becasue I can actually use it as a rough simulation for how my real cars will perform in real life, so its more of a tool than a game for me. It can be kind of fun in multi-player mode.… Full Review »
