I have got 4 new tracks, Loudon, Phoenix, the modern Glen and Dubai. I notice that some people seem to have Hickory and Homestead. Do these tracks come with N99? I only have N2 and Cart Racing (formerly ICR2) - will N99 give me the ability to convert these other 2 circuits? Cheers, Paul

Yes, I've been at two races at Hickory, it was a pinball game. Nothing but railrunners and T-boners. Havent seen a homestead race on VROC yet.

In Novice races the damage model is very light and at several tracks, including I notice the converted ovals, it is possible to not brake at corners with walls, armcos and other restraining barriers but instead run up very close to the barrier and allow it to guide you around the corner at very high speeds - much faster than you could take the corner by braking into it and driving around in a more "normal" manner. Using this strategy, it is possible to acheive laps times of 1:25.xx at Monza and 26.xx at Loudon. The solution is either for people to behave themselves or to set the damage model to advanced or realistic which will usually, but not always, result in the tyres puncturing. Why people resort to such childish behaviour is beyond me. Cheers, Paul

You can get the fantasy Dubai track from the Pits - the same page as you got the track converter. Note that the track will only look at all good if you set most of the graphics options on. This may give problems with framerates on lower end systems. Cheers, Paul
