Where we all came into the world of NR2003 Racing...the Original 2003 Cup Set, now
FLASH forward to 2020 and the Splash N Go MENCS19 mod, MASH them together and you get something like what we've created here. (We realize this may well have been done by others)
Our homage to the origins:
The Stunod Racing Team Community 2003 Winston Cup Series on the MENCS19 mod.
Complete with the #86 Fred Jones Papyrus driver car! @garrett1127

This set is dedicated to the community...it is intended to take you back to those first few hours of running NR2003 without mods or tracks or other enhancements, we just were so immersed in racing these heroes, simple and sweet. Hopefully, you'll be able to find that place again with this set.
ENJOY!!!
Highbank & Team
