Are there any good ovals for GPL that have good AI and are not converted tracks?

To be completely serious, there was one with decent hi-res textures but for the life of me I can't remember the name. I believe it was flat and ran clockwise?

any?? > lol!! By my definition there are no "GOOD" ovals ;-) Surely the CART brigade must have some suggestions? Malc.

Waterloo is really good: a 2+ mile trioval with the tri part on the backstretch. John DiFool

Except the AI stinks. I saw 7 or 8 barrel rolls during a race there. And the Lotus boys kept crashing every 5 laps... so it was easy to lead.

BTW I am very impressed with Laustizring <sp> in Germany. Well worth the download.
I'm curious to see responses to this thread also. With ICRII/CPR the ovals were a good place to practice dealing with traffic: it was always there. Is GPL not suited to ovals? The lack of aero and its adjustments makes ovals very different from other sims; and as you hint, I don't think anyone has ever tweeked the AI for ovals.

It's for the converted ovals but there are tweaked AI files from Sabre Team at: http://teamfriendship.m4driving.sm/sabre.htm SB "The Carvalho Family" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Caveat - just dl'ed 'em and tried a couple of tracks. The AI still seem to crash all over the place for no apparent reason. The front few AI drivers at Michigan were doing pretty well, running quickly, drafting each other and passing back and forth - until they hit some slow lappers; then they completely lost it.

Thanks for passing on your recent experience. I guess there's not enough interest for someone with the knowledge, skills and time to re-program the AI. Jim Steve Blankenship wrote:
