If it is possible to convert the ICR2 track at Elkhart Lake, "Road
America", to use it with GPL.  I have seen CART, Superbike and CanAm
races at this track and think that it would be a hoot to drive on GPL.

        The long right hander was my only problem with that track.  I did love
the rest of it and think that track would be great,  Especially in the
"F3" ;-)  Rumor has it that there will be another track coming soon but
no one knows a date yet.  Check out the GPLEA for info.

  You "should" be able to, if the convertor's have enabled RA.
1st you need the ICR2>N2 convertor.  This will get the track into shape
for N2 and N99.  To further refine the product(haha) you should install
it into N3 with the pits N3 patch.  Then using the N3>gpl convertor, IF
it is setup to convert other tracks(I haven't used it so I can't say)
you can import it to gpl.  Good Luck!  With no rear wing, I'm not too
keen on trying to blast down the back straight. :)

yeah, the new track is Snetterton in the UK. I posted a link to the page
with screenshots a couple of days ago but I can't remember it right now.
Looks pretty fine though.

Only a few people have it and it's fully done I'll say except the pits being
a feet higher than the normal track, but unfortunately for some weird reason
like lack of time to create real installers and finalise some TRK settings
so it's been kept on some people's PC for almost a year now.

FYI you cannot simply "convert" it using the N3>GPL converter.

Francois, can you explain me how I can convert the track manually to
GPL?

  Hey Yves, the web service won't let us access your elkhart track jpg.
says we have to link to it from a webpage on their service, not by
directly accessing it....
