Watching the Canadian GP last week made me think we need to have a race at this track again. I don't think we have used it before in AC, (I don't remember racing on it since the GTR2 days)

I am sure people will be up for a second race at this track! Had you got a particular version of the track in mind? This version does not contain the best eye candy

Won't hijack your thread after this, but I was considering F1 tracks, but there aren't a lot of high quality ones, but I just realised Paul Ricard is a good alternative.

This was one of the first add on tracks I've ever installed for AC many years ago ;D
The track layout irl is awesome, mod version is also quite ok, looking forward to the race :)

I have got the practice server up, but I do not have time to log on and check it until late afternoon (chauffeuring the brats to party + school fete). If there is a problem Picnic would be able to solve it if he is around.


P.S. Picnic, where you on the RDP sorting out the server when I just logged on? if so sorry

Thanks for the racing guys, good to see some more drivers than usual.

Lost connection a few minutes before the end and dropped a lap behind, otherwise good race on a nice track :)
