    I hear that... heaven forbid you are a world class city with world class events lol... I think it may have something to do with where the Vancouver Indy was... If you have been at the location, its right in the center surrounded by buildings in what can only be described as a man made bowl... I think this amplified the accoustics... I caught the skytrain down there and as we got closer, at each stop, the door would open and you could tell how much closer you were than last stop... The sound really seemed to echo through the downtown core... Can you actually watch the Indy from your place... sheesh.. that would be sweet!

    It's not just the English that do that ;)

    I Wish I could watch it from my place; but we're facing the wrong way :( There's also a bit of a park between my building and the track so we're not right on top of it, but there's no building between us so if I were on the other side of the building I'd be able to watch it. And I'd have a huuge terrance to watch it from, too... Jerks. We don't even get a balcony on our side. :(

    Lame !!!! See thats just a tease... better off you can't hear it LOL ;)
    And Canadians do this too... Im pretty sure the apartments went up around the Vancouver track while the circuit was active and they still complained... I would have loved it... Watching practice, quali, race from your living room live... goodness

    Back on topic

    Pics look great again... but I'm seeing Silverstone detail (which is a good thing)... Maybe this track wont have to render 50000 fans lol ;)

    Ugh, I stand corrected. I can hear them this year. Woke up to the sound of Indy Lights, and when I left my place I could hear the Pro Mazda practice. Walking away from that beautiful sound to go to the office is the hardest thing I've ever had to do... :(

    As for noise complaints; Mont Tremblant is in serious trouble for that reason right now, too, and has been for years. And Toronto being Toronto, the biggest complaints against the Indy here are the traffic implications. Our entire road system is crap, so shutting down the biggest road in the city is disastrous for those who drive around the south end. I think they're just babies, though. The traffic here is always bad. That's why I walk to work!

    Lightning and texture work are stunning .

    Trying to read between the lines...and find a hidden hint...perhaps Mores will be followed by that long-awaited mystery BTCC car shortly thereafter or concurrently perhaps? Would be a natural follow-up to Silverstone! (the announcement of which, BTW, also reminded us of the upcoming BTCC car..."It will match up well with the Grand Prix and GT cars already available in rFactor 2, along with a British Touring Car currently in production.")

    i just ask myself how hard it will be to bring the older tracks to the level of silverstone and mores? i imagine that you would have to redo like every single texture and sharpen it up.

    It would be a lot of work for all the tracks. LRP probably less so, because we have higher res textures available for it.

    It just will match up well, it's a tight track suited to slower cars. The longer layout they're working on might fit some faster cars, but the short layout (primarily used for bikes in real life IIRC) will be best with the slow ones.

    Tim does this mean there is a good chance it will happen in the future with LRP ?

    It's possible all tracks will get future art passes, I just think it's more likely you'd see something Silverstone-esque with LRP than any other. I can't say a certain yes though, as you never know what track license could fall in our lap over the years.
