My user status has said ive been making this, and i have been for the past month or so. A total rebuild of my Phoenix International Raceway, which even if i say so myself looks amazingly better! The track has a groove drawn onto the track, and the AI follow it, and i am happy with the AI. The banking is slight, but smooth. I hope i have capture the feeling of Phoenix and the look of Arizona, but whatever, i hope you enjoy the track! Comments and Criticisms welcome!

It must be if there's Grand-Am race there in the next couple weeks. Although the outfield has been closed off, it seems to have been decided that it's better to keep it in GR, for originality, and traditional identification's sake.

It's hard to please me with an oval but this one does the trick I'd say it's you best one so far and definitely the best Phoenix I've seen Good job!

The road course infield section is absolutely there, and is used for a great many SCCA club racing events.

It's only the outfield part that has been removed, some years ago.

very very nice, your tracks are getting better and better....

the previous version wasn't very good IMO, but this is now the best Phoenix for sure!

Not bad. The track itself drives well, the AI are decent. However, you could probably do better texturing in the outfield down the backstretch on the hillsides. It's not bad, but it could look better IMHO.

You say my tracks are getting better and better, but i cant guarantee they will al be as good as this one. About the outfield, well, its a desert and i didnt want to put too much out there, otherwise the desert feeling could be lost.

Well, I didn't say more stuff necessarily, just more dithering of some dirt and gravel in the sand for a better, more interesting look.

well when they start getting worse i will let you know

seriously though, compared to the first tracks i saw you release these last few have been miles better (i can only really remember the last 2-3, apologies if there were more!). and i don't think you will do anything much worse, not by the looks of this, even if they are not quite as good
