I followed that up with IndyCar Racing and F1 World Circuit (still keyboard racing) but the defining moment of my simming life was the release of Papyrus' NASCAR Racing 1. I bought my copy the day it hit store shelves and was instantly addicted. Since then I have followed along, buying every Papyrus product the day it hit store shelves.
These days I do run the occasional Dirst Track Racing 2, Pro Race Driver 2 or Indy Car Racing but Papyrus' NASCAR Racing series remains my first love.
My very first wheel came a couple of months after I began racing NASCAR 1. It was a Thrustmaster T1. I followed that up a couple of years later with a T2 that remained my "everyday driver" for years. I then rotated through a few different wheels and now primarily use the Logitech Momo Racing (black) wheel. It's just a matter of time (and budget) before I give in and purchase a Thomas or ECCI wheel.
These days with work, family and so on I just don't have the free time to race that I used to but on average I still manage to squeeze in 3 or 4 hours a week behind the wheel.
