    I noticed a strange camera perspective during replay. It was at the long straight after the first three corners.
    Boot NC Endurance version.
    Sorry if I'm able to take a screenshot, I'll upload it.
    Anybody else noticed it?
    Anyway......this track is so unbelievable beautiful and had such a nice flow.
    It was one of my Rf1 fav tracks with the nascar trucks :)

    You are not the only one who noticed the issue. There are several places where the TV cams have a wierd FOV, allmost like fish eye optic. But not really a biggy.

    Besides that, it is a fantastic track and a great addition to this sim with it's endurance features. So thanks to all involved and especialy LilSki who gave permission to convert this masterpiece. You can never have enough american tracks in a sim ... never. I spent quite a bit of time with the Group C cars and the Lola T70 Spyder on the track and it was a blast. :)

    This track looks phenomenal. I was only able to get half a dozen laps in before I had to get off, but what I was able to run looked amazing. Great job.

    One of the camera groups also have a weird camera change around the start/finish line, moves to a camera and then to another very quickly, didnt make sense at all

    Outstanding track folks. Many thanks.

    @Schumi One issue I'm having is the inside curb on the long right hand corner just after the bus stop. I'm using the MAK CORK Porsche 962C with an OSW.

    A huge thank you to all the Watkins team. What a superb rendition of this track!

    One bug I encountered though (and I can supply replay file if it'll help) was a FCY yellow flag issue:

    1) The yellow was thrown somewhere around the boot
    2) As myself (2nd) and 1st place went over the start/finish line and emerged from turn 1, the safety car came out behind me, ahead of 3rd
    3) I initially slowed down, only to see 1st speed off around turn 2
    4) Not wanting to lose the chance of a 1st place, I put my foot down too, trying to keep up with 1st
    5) 1st span and crashed in the esses
    6) down the back straight, I was told that I was ahead of the car I should be following (the guy who'd crashed in the esses)
    7) none of the other AIs cared about waiting for the crashed car, the safety car or me driving slowly, trying to let the crashed car catch up, and they call kept their foot down
    8) then before we got to the bus-stop chicane, the green flag came out with the safety car still on track

    I'm not sure how much of the issue is a track issue and how much is a FCY AI issue, but I think I'll run with yellows off for the time being.

    Great work ( no need to wait to the other team mod any more after 4 years of useless waiting). I did 25 laps and really every thing is a top quality however the AI is slow even in 110% I was able to be 2 seconds faster.

    Very good conversion, FPS a bit heavy even compared to Sebring (in VR) and the AI need some work which I hope comes in a future update, overall very good though, many thanks :)

    I noticed another little issue: the pitbuilding doesn't have a no-rainzone, so it is raining inside the garage. Other than that still enjoying the track alot the last couple of days. ;)
