My darling wife just gave me a set of 3-day passes for the American Le Mans race at Mid-Ohio in June and, never having been there before, I was hoping that I could find a cyber-version of the track and get to know it that way. I spend most of my time with GPL, but I see that GPL mid-ohio requires a track converter (which I'd like to avoid messing with); any other options? Thanks -- itazura

Well worth the money. Plus it's the only "no-piracy" option. :-)

The GPL version is converted from ICR2, which was an awful attempt at recreating Mid-Ohio. Lots of elevation errors, and "minor" object placement issues like putting the start stand on the wrong side of the track. ;-) CART Precision Racing had a better rendition that was ported to NASCAR Heat, SCGT, and I believe the EA F1 titles. You should have a great time. Mid-Ohio is a beautiful facility, and it's very easy to walk around the grounds to see the entire track.

Thanks for the information -- and for your generous offer to provide more info via e-mail. Looks, at this stage, like we're all squared away with accomodations and what not, but I'll jot down your e-mail addy just in case. Definitely looking forward to the weekend, as I've heard nothing but good things about the track.
