I spent so many hours there playing TOCA trying to master the "long" portion that's added to the short track. For some reason I have trouble with that part.

The Melbourne loop you mean? It's a great spectator point on the track - especially on the exit of the hairpin Doug

Those SBK2001 tracks look stunning. Ice D
could someone post some incar shots from just before hollywood, over the crest and down through the craners into the old hairpin? is it flat out in most of these cars? pez "Doug Ellison" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:aspu2v$thaef$[email hidden]...

No, I don't think so. Fast though. As a matter of fact I find the SBK2001 tracks conversions(Brands, Donington, Sugo?, Oschersleben?, Laguna et.c) overall lacking in accuracy. Donington's Craner curves have much more elevation changes built in, I'd think. Where you come down from Hollywood and start turning left there's a depression I think. And a depression exiting the left hander. The hump under Dunlop bridge is also missing. At Brands I certainly don't think the Dingle Dell chicane can be taken in one line(!)(flat out in 6th in the F1's no less). The bikes IRL at least have to raise in the middle of it. Moreover, they ALL seems to lack ANY visible camber, most detrimental to Brands and Laguna, where there's some very interestingly cambered corners IRL, IMHO.
