Sorry, I haven't heard anything about it, but heard it mentioned a couple of
times... Ok, I have heard about it, but I don't know what it is.  How's
that?

Circular "bowl" shaped track a few hundred yards across. Good fun.

It's a new track from our friends at the GPLEA. It's basically a
bowl, fun to play with, get it here: http://start.at/KOTR in the

It's a tiny little high-banked circle track.
If it was made for any other sim, the people playing it would probably
be calling it a piece of crap.

We're already calling it .. crap.  What do you think Pants means in Pants Ring?
LOL.

It's just a test bed for the physics as GPLEA put it.

So it's not shaped like a pair of pants or anything, then?

Actually the Pants Ring started out as a "test-track"...  I needed something
simple and easy to test new 3do-objects in... so I asked Phil create a short
oval for me. And before anyone knew anything... we had a nice little track..
wilch was fun as hell to race around...  So eventually we decided to release
it - as a joke! :-)

Naaah.... you'll find them at http://www.gpl.netti.nu/current.html

Yep, but since GPL use the new game engine by Papyrus, ANY type of track has
it's fun.  Nothing else...  It's the game engine, plus the era of those
cars.  Any track will be fun.  ANY.
