After running Noonans Lemans the ISI version seems VERY tame :)  Fun though.

Thanks for the link to the tracks page. I didn't have that one. Road
A. is downloading as I write this...

LeMans, eh? OK, I guess I'd better start practicing. I see some
people are claiming to be able to circulate in the 3:12 range: more
like 4:12 for me (the first time I tried).

If we're referring to our TA bit of RASCAR, I'll go with whatever you
suggest - our taste in RCs seems about the same. On ETCC, the LeMans circuit
is a complete blast. Haven't tried it in TA yet.

I can't find a way to download tracks through F1RST. Looked everywhere.

Sounds good to me.

Just act as if youre going to host a race.  Go to the second tab and
pick the track you want to dl.  Upon launch it will promt you to
download and install.  You can also join a race that you don't have the
track for and it will also auto install.

Join a race that has a track you want. If the race isn't password or
full, the first thing that will happen after you join is you will get
a pop-up that asks if you want the track (since F1rst couldn't find
the track on your computer). In the immortal words of someone in the
anti-drug lobby: "Just say 'Yes'".

Then I guess you need to be rude and quit the race until you've had a
chance to practice a bit. <g>

I just downloaded LeMans (both night and day) and installed them in ETCC and
DTM. Much better looking and more detailed than the N2003 track. I was
really surprised at how nice they are.

Thanks Mitch and Darryl. I found out that I can just drop the track folder
into the DTM circuits folder and the track appears. You can install a track
into ETCC the same way, or use the track installer option when you start the
game.
