Is there a version of the Mid-Ohio available for F1 2002 or F1C?
I did some searching for it but as of now I still can't find it.
I had the chance to drive my car on this course in the mid 90's. Man, that
was fun!

Thanks, FB.  I hadn't seen this.  Does this require a change in the .gdb
files?

It's a great effort given what he used for reference, but it's off in
places.  Better than Papy's, not quite up to the CPR(?) port to SCGT & NH.

Yes it does require a update to your gdb file if you want to do a full race.
You can get an updated gdb for Mid-Ohio (and many other tracks) at this
site;

Thanks, FB.  Appreciate the Danica Patrick link, too!

Hehe...  Planning to be at Road Atlanta this weekend; should be interesting
to see how she goes in the ProDrive 550.  ;-)

Yeah, specifically there are a few problems with the turn 1 - Keyhole
straight.  I have a SCGT conversion being groomed for release that is
more accurate geometrically, but lacks the beautiful textures that
Spider made.  He's aware of the problems; hope he can take the time to
re-shape it soon.

WOW! Great effort!
Is this from scratch?
I love the textures, great!
I don't know if it's the fact that I go to the CART race there most every
year? But this certainly gives an immersive feel of what it must be like to
drive on this course at speed!
While I agree that there is a bit of weirdness entering turn 1 -The Keyhole,
It's great to see things like turn 13 (I think) (the turn after Thunder
Valley and before the Carousel) is off camber as it is in real life. And the
Esses are right on!
This is defiantly one of my favorite add-on courses. I can't stop running
this thing! Great FUN!
Nice work, Thanks!
