> Good Question. Actually, Bathurst is a Track in Austrailia, at a
place
> called Mt. Panorama. They anually hold a 1000k race there for Touring
> cars. For several years, the big BTCC teams would also attend a Super
> Touring event there as well.
> Magnificent course. A long straight sets you up for a sudden right hand
> turn,
> you immeadately begin climbing up the side of a mountain, the first left
> hander
> is a very tight switchback then you blast onto the top of the mountain, a
> short couple of sweepers takes you to a very TIGHT plunge back down. At
> the bottom, another long straight with a couple of near-ninety degree
turns
> brings you back to the pit straight.
> And yes it has been re-created VERY well for SCGT and hopefully soon for
> F1CS2k. I am pretty sure the file format differnces between Papyrus
tracks
> and the 'other' companies that use 3d modeling programs will make a
> conversion difficult. However...Marc over at 'The Sim Project' is
> attempting to convert some of the old Indycar Racing 2 road courses over
to
> the SCGT file format...if he is sucessful, then a project to reverse
> engineer the SCGT tracks into a Papyrus format 'might' be possible.
