Amazed this track mod. Was surprized about good surface phisical mesh , what is not so ordinary for mod track converts. Fantastic suited for our car. I extremely needs to learn it , having fun in every lap of 1000 ( something like a Monza or Silverstone) Only one small thing - any (ANY) rails touch and i am dead without variants

I know one thing here- to make a rails and track surface good- its must to be coded from scratch or this surfaces must to be well suited in AC format good by default in converting stage. No such track converters here. Year of hard work. BUT this track is gamn good anyway- i love it. Gimme 1000 free hours of live to fun in. Every lap i driven now are more and more enjoyed! Brilliant combo. Thanks Jeff for choice!

Alexey beat me to it after finally getting some laps in earlier I too thought what a fantastic track this is, with a great flow to it I can see now why people say they much prefer this to the modern a1-ring. Pretty epic in a Rift too looking at the scenery as you blast along. Haven’t quite sussed the best lines through a couple of the trickier double apex corners yet but had fun trying and you can really hear the tyres working hard in some corners. Guess we have to spoil it by needing hard tyres? I really don’t like them on this car anyone checked we can get enough fuel in the car with the fast times being set? Seemed a bit borderline

IMPORTANT: It's not allowed to go all 4 wheels over the curbs on the inside. If you do that in your best qually lap, it's a qually ban for the next round. For the race the standard penalties apply:
Gaining advantage through Corner Cutting: 2 places Factors: Were the perpetrator and victim actually fighting for position? Did the victim subsequently have an incident which prevented the place being given back?

I am just now completely understood what Mark said in test session to me: "We meet with siberian winter" How are you guys? Still cold weather and snow is falling or things going better? BTW we are all will be in finish with 0.2 liters of fuel . 99l using. to Jeff- Yes sir! Sure sir!

I noted that the cut of the curbs here give an important loss of grip.

BTW we are all will be in finish with 0.2 liters of fuel . 99l using. to Jeff- Yes sir! Sure sir! We had a week of heavy snow and below freezing temps in the south but now it has literally mostly melted overnight at the weekend The North got hit hard after us but not sure how it is now. Hope its cleared up as I have my first trackday of the year this week at Oulton park And yes, fuel is very tight, shouldn't a lap limit be applied rather than leaving it to chance we can finish? Guess it depends how fast you front few are in race trim. If someone runs a tad higher wing I am not even sure they will make it to the finish. ( I tested with 3 wing).

IIRC I used 3.3L a lap and race will be around 27 laps so that's around 90L. There won't be a lap limit just like at Monza. People can opt to save a bit of fuel during the race or a pitstop.
