Oregon Raceway Park Final Version
Hi, Just a quick update to ORP, it now includes night lighting, and a representation of Mt Hood off in the distance of the track.https://drive.google.com/file/d/16O98qnJf8oN2GP0IaWAnhtV67ck_uNlq/view?usp=sharingThe revised track lighting should offer a significant performance gain as well, so if you were getting low FPS, then I do recommend this update.With this final update the track is now available publicly on Race Department, so depending on the wider array of feedback i'll get from that...

Circuit of the Northwest
This is a circuit that is currently under construction in real life - so there may well be inaccuracies to the finished track, however I aim to do another revision of this circuit when there are actually on-board videos of real cars driving the track so I can gather better references. For now this is made up from the promotional materials, renders and plans of the track. So hopefully it's not too far off of the real thing.Download -> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NJFOSe0vBdP0uSrDkwaRQWM3E...
Sebring 60s V2
Version 2 of Sebring 1960's, this track is still in the process of getting the track mesh, and circuit layout correct - which is proving to be quite the task!Download -> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lnSVKOVa3f9r7IBc2gYbrnl3NkpN_E5n/view?usp=sharingThanks to Rodger and his references! I believe that the t1,t2,t3 section now matches the historic tracks layout much more closely. Correcting this area also involved re-working the pit exit. The area round t10 has also had some slight changes t...
Thunderhill V8 - The final Stretch!
Hello Everybody, Here we go Thunderhill time :)Another long list of changes here.But first the download! -> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qZ8OC0jH-wttYrmF6Vvxz-dApRiT3baT/view?usp=sharingThere has been a lot of detail work, concentrating mainly on the road surface. Added tarmac cracks on the east track, as well as 'resurfaced' patches of tarmac. Depending on the feedback for these details, I will add them to the west track too. The patches of tarmac are pretty much in the same positio...

But you can set lap times on the Mansell and East layouts.Download -> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QyjHdOHfr19hliFibTjVs-MlLWMi7eBb/view?usp=sharingMore layouts will come in future updates, by the end there will be all of them... that's a lot of layouts!I also intend to track the development of the new areas of the track as closely as possible. For now its just dirt roads off in the distance. 99% of all layouts are probably already d...
Spring Mountain Progress Update
Hi Everyone,Just a quick update on the progress with Spring Mountain. Sadly, not quite ready for a download link – but definitely close! I expect to have it ready in a week or so. Then while that’s being tested, I will continue with the Sebring changes and have that ready shortly after.When I’m doing small changes / tweaks to a track that is mostly made, it is a lot easier to get frequent updates out. Whereas with Spring Mountain, so much work needs to be done ‘up front’ before it’s ...
Spring Mountain Layouts Poll.
Hi Everyone.On the spring mountain website they list loads of layouts for the tracks. For all of these to be included in the first release is a bit too much of an undertaking, especially when they might need to be changed etc as the track model evolves with your feedback.If I did one or two of the layouts as 'testers' which ones would you like to see? https://www.springmountainmotorsports.com/facility/race-trackI'll aim to get a version with all 13km of asphalt out by the end of this...

Sebring 60's Early Preview
Hi Everyone,https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ObiL3t1X8fnEYtYS9rIvYVg_vN-3_8vK/view?usp=sharingIt’s been a busy few weeks for me so I apologize for the lack of content, I’ve managed to get Sebring to a place where it is playable – but there is no AI and the timing gates are in the wrong location. You can still set lap times in practice, it’s just the time is taken from the straight before the last corner. The idea behind this release it to gauge peoples opinions on the direction the trac...

Seattle Circuit 2021 - Performance Test.
Hey all, Seattle is taking me a fair bit longer to complete than anticipated so I’ve decided to release it as it is for now. There’s still a lot of work to be done on things like the lights at night – there’s some texture glitches etc as well. But one thing I’m really interested in is how well this performs on other people’s PCs. As the original version of Seattle that I made years ago, is kind of notorious for being a resource hog. This version should behave a lot better. But I app...
Anglesey Overhaul - Part 2
Hi All, I've taken the last couple of days to apply some of the lessons I've learned overhauling the Seattle Circuit, to Anglesey. Seattle will be out soon, it's just a lot more complex with all of the buildings etc. Here we now have all 4 versions, all running AI. Updated graphics, better performance.The track mesh has been modified slightly to be more true to life, the second pit-lane has been added, to allow the other layouts that use it to work. Max AI on the tracks has also been...

Oregon Raceway Park v1
Hi everyone, As promised here is v1 of Oregon Raceway Park, it's a super fun track to drive, it's currently set up with two layouts, clockwise and anti-clockwise, what are people preferences for the shorter layouts? As it's V1 expect some issues, for example I've just spotted a floating break marker, and powerline cable. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1X6PNPw368Q4ExThSeH7EIPrnodIAN0r5/view?usp=sharingThe next update to Thunderhill will follow shortly, then we'll have the 202...
Kinnekulle V2
A quick update on this one, as I received some feedback on the track layout recently so have done some fixes. This is still a fair way from being finished so don't judge too harshly!Added several buildings, trees, barriers, signs etc. Re profiled the last corner and start finish to fix large bumps that aren't as obvious in real life. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Yz_nW_gRwFXWV9urBWJbN5wOadnfYfMN/view?usp=sharingEnjoy :-)Also I have a quick question for everybody, if you could comment ...

Jeddah 2021
Hi Guys, as a side project I wanted to be the first person to build the newly announced Jeddah Street Circuit - I took the day off work to try and manage to build the whole track in a day... so yes it's rushed, and therefore I don't deem it worthy of being part of my main content on here, it was more of a PR exercise really, to be the first to get it done y'know? You can download it here. https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/jeddah-street-circuit-f1-2021-night-race.40825/Some of ...
