IRC2 --> GPL track conversion question

I'd like to be able to run mid-ohio in gpl (in preparation for a visit out there to see the US LeMans race in a couple weeks) and I understand that the to run mid-ohio in gpl requires conversion of an IRC2 track. Never having done any track conversions (and not owning IRC2), I'm not quite sure how to go about this. Could someone recommend a good site with instructions and/or links to necessary files. And if I need to purchase a copy of IRC2 first to get this to work, any thoughts on where I might find a copy? Thanks -- itazura

The icr2 > GPL version of Mid Ohio is not very accurate. You'd probably get a better experience using one of the F1c versions of Mid Ohio.

Dave Noonan (sp?) did the converter (icr2gpl). I just ran across the Demo converter, but it only converts a few tracks; and I don't think Mid-Ohio is among them. To convert Mid-Ohio, I think you'll need the full Converter, which costs money. I don't know where it's available or how much it is. . . . I think I may have just found the full converter. Try here: http://www.sim-garage.co.uk/gpl_index.htm Good luck. Have fun at the real race. Simming always enhances my experience, too. Jim SS wrote:
