Should be an "interesting" track for the Rover... If your running the rover, I could use a tune. |

OK, we'll do the long version. I'll upload the track ASAP.

Wolf, I may start working on a tune for the Rover tonight. I'll let you know when I've got something serviceable.

Just ran a few laps, I did have this track already in an off the wall mod. Like knight said, don't go off in the corners with a downhill bank. Some can be hard to get out of, and some impossible. And the pits can be a PITA, just remember to start pit entry at the last corner and it will register. But with all that, I would hate to miss the chance to run this one. The track is pure fun. The Rover can be a handful here, but loving it non the less. Hope you have a nice tune for this one Helios...  |

Haha. And Wolf, your desire has been achieved. I absolutely fucking positively love this car around this track.....I can't describe how it feels. It is probably one of the best pairings of car and track I've ever driven.....bar none. It's got the perfect amount of slip/grip, love the sound, and the balance of the car lets you toss it pretty much wherever you want it to go.....short of running in way to deep. And it freaking flies.....on Mediums & full tank. ;D Oh yeah, and that was with the H shifter. |

I went off several times... once I found a road that led me back to the trackside  Two or three times I drove through a wall and was able to get back on the road. So I'm not too concerned about offs though there's probably one or two glitches out there so be careful. I strongly recommend you practice pitting. This is an old school track with no pit wall and the points where pit limiters are required aren't so obvious. I suggest you pretend Pit In is immmediately after the tight last corner. Pit out is a few car lengths past the lights. |

Sorry guys I won't make it. Didn't have a chance to practice and from what I hear this track isn't one I would want to jump in on cold.

And we're dropping like flies. Had it in the bag. Cruise control. F1 had gone off a few laps earlier. Got distracted for a split second heading into the cliffside esses..... Yeah, over the wall. So the TCM victory still eludes me.  |

Wolf's leading Sheldon by 1:30 going into the last lap, can he bring it home for Rover?  |

fun race despite losing most of the field even with the couple of glitches/gotchas I would run this track again  |
