    Radiator Springs Racing present their new track conversion:
    Lime Rock v1.0

    Thanks to Uzzi for the authorization, and to all the beta tester for their help and suggestions. Your help had been very valuable.
    Thanks to Paul Thomas, and Gianluca Bonifacio for their help on cameras and some textures, and to Mario Gilles and Fulvio "Gek" Genova for their help fixing some issues on the 3d.

    I take it its the old version. Which is no shame since its the only version I know. But it would be great to drive on the new layout some time. (Is the new version of the rl track even finished yet???)

    Andrea can you give us a timeline for a release date.

    Talking of short tracks is Zolder anywhere nearly finished yet??

    As far as I'm aware of, there is only one (quite old) version of this track.

    The track is fully converted, already. I want to optimize it now, and improve it a bit before releasing it.

    No idea about the timeline.

    Regarding Zolder, I think that Albert converted it also, a long time ago, but the abandoned it, for some reason.

    Last I heard the reason Iracing hadn't rescanned lime rock was because more work was planned.

    Pity about zolder but the beta version released else where at RSR IMHO drive very well. (Although the distant building probably could do with more work.)

    Personally Id be happy to run that version in an official race.

    Is that why Silverstone hasn't been re-scanned as well?

    It'll be a while b4 iracing resan anything as they have tracks scan over a year ago they haven't released yet or even built yet.

    yep thats the one I had in mind would n't mind Oran park as well. This is where laser scanning is invaluable. (Cultural inheritance and wot not) Has anybody tried getting permission for the Rfactor laser scanned tracks?

    One thing Iracing will never have are the historical tracks. So people convert the old ones pleeeeeaaaaassssse.

    Someone told me, someone tried to convert them & they were very bumpy (I've no idea who though).

    I didn't read anything about more stuff being done to the track in the near future. If you believe everthing Dave K and his cronies tell ya I'll sell you the London Bridge for 50 euros. Send to my paypal account and I'll mail you the deed. Laughing
