    Nice video, I love this track and think it would lend itself very well to rFactor2 :)

    Yes matey, it was a dream that never quite made it. Wish Someone! would get the Group C Mod going, cause sure as hell we couldn't.... some dirty stuff took over... haha... arguably if made, it would be the most anticipated Aussie Mod to ever make Rfactor2 I reckon, those days it was sheer brute horsepower. Let us know mate if you need any texture work mate for the track.

    That'd be great Mike. I think I may have driven some Aussie tracks in GTR2, Were they yours? They were very good. Hope you can take advantage of RF2s graphics capabilities and keep the fps at a good level, like Mid Ohio.
    Thanks for your efforts.

    Yeah that is the learning curve for me. RF2 will look great. The fact is, Queensland Raceway is plain vanilla. Even when I was there the other week, it is so bare. That is why I want to get the grass at least looking better than one perfect shade all over.

    Once that is done the objects will be easy.

    I am getting the track into sections and remapping the road. For some reason (my error!) all the road textures are 90 degrees. So one section at a time and getting the mountain and land finished.

    Once that is done I will get more images and video done.

    If all road textures are exactly 90° rotated, just slap a UVW XForm on it and, well, rotate the textures 90°. ;)

    This would be an absolutely awesome mod Mike :) Would you be making it with a number the models that raced that year?

    The best mountain track in the world and hardly any sim or game has it licensed. OMFG what a waste of $$$ it must be or is it to highly priced to license ????????? or is it they think the track is not popular enough ?????????????????????

    Would you believe I have it in RF2 dev and starting to get it going again.

    The main focus is Lakeside. I made so many error with the first version. Lots of rework on the terrain. Once that is done, I will start to populate the track with objects, some old, some new.

    I had wondered what happened to the Group C mod. What a shame, as the models were starting to look great when I last saw some piccies (Falcon and A9X) and there would be a massive Aussie line up to download a completed mod.

    Pre-chase Bathurst, my favourite place. Hardly any safety barriers, rough edged road and nothing to stop you heading for the trees... excellent stuff. Looking forward to it Mike.
