Hello !

After ive downloaded the fantastic Brands Hatch (thx Dan) i want to ask, if
there are more tracks (i mean real 67 looking tracks) are in plan?

Maybe Hockenheim?
Maybe AVUS?
Maybe the Monza oval (ok. its not 67 looking but interessting anyway)

What about the Solitude, 11.5km of public roads in the forests near
Stuttgart? It was used till 1965 by F1 (non-World Championship races),
and is similiar to the Ring or Rouen.
And Phil Hill said once that the series of 16 curves
(left-left-right-left-right-left-right-left-right-left-right-left-right-left-right-left)
in the Mahdental section are more difficult to learn than the whole
Ring.

Clermont-Ferrand would be nice, too.

what's the big deal about that section? it looks dang easy to me. you just
go "left-right" a bunch of times. pretty simple.     ; -)

As far as I have understood of the messages by those who know, the
overlappings of racing streets - as in Monza when the banked section
goes over the non banked one - are NOT generally possible in the GPL
engine! So all the 8-shaped - in a way or another - courses should be
impossible?

Those hoping for the banked Monza have not read this info? Or is there
a way of overcoming this problem?

Sounds like fun - do you know a link to a map of that circuit, I've never
seen one?

Agreed - that's in the Grand Prix movie, I think.

The larger map is very detailed, but over 350kB. :-/
The idiot ;-) who scanned it should have made it smaller ...

That's what I thought, too.

What about the last corner in Mexico? It is banked almost as much as the
Monza banking, and works perfectly!

Ciaoooooooo! ;)
