How are the laptimes comparing then?
New track is faster 1.5 sec. Because has surface grip 99 ( standart kunos tracks and T78 mod have proper 98 percents) It can be easy corrected by editing surface.ini simple text file ( very first tarmac section).

But before upload it to peoples and server!So. Just tested both versions im my local server.
Newer version is more adequate for racing IMHO. First turn is not so dangerous. T78 is deadly here ))) Last turn is not dangerous too due more lower height track restrictors on left side. Graphics looks more better ( like kunos style tracks). Containing many more visual orientirs for braking.
T78 version has a mip levels visual bugs and overall graphics quality from early 2000s .
IMHO. If surface.ini will be corrected to tarmac section grip = 98 - Newer track uploaded by nfs55 will be better for me in race.
Why 98? More standart, more slips and more challenge IMHO.
But i'll take any Mark's desigion here.
