Quote from the track website:

The circuit first hosted a round of the Australian Touring Car Championship (now known as V8 Supercars) in 1992 and held a round every year, excluding 1998 and 2006, until 2008. The circuit hosted the V8 Supercars Grand Finale in 2003 and 2004, with Marcos Ambrose winning on both occasions.[12] In 2009 the circuit was dropped in favour of a new event at Sydney Olympic Park.[13] The circuit returned to the V8 Supercars calendar in 2012 after V8 Supercars failed to secure a second international event.[14]

The official pre-season V8 Supercar test day was held at the circuit in 2011[14] and 2013. The 2013 test day was the first time that the four Car of the Future manufacturers appeared together at a public event.[15]

In the 1990s, the circuit hosted the Winfield Triple Challenge, an event which featured ATCC teams and drivers alongside Superbikes and drag racing.

Practice server is up for Round 3 Eastern Creek. I've added the SaReNi Camaro GT Race Car since it is the closest (I think?) we have to a V8Supercar in specs.

Love your work!

I tried connecting and it crashed to the menu screen any one else experiencing problems?

Is it due to the 1.2.5 update? I don't know if that affected the server or the data files.

Just tried and it works for me. Perhaps it is connected with the Zandvoort issues we had on Tuesday night? Did you install the 30 pitbox version? If so, did you correct the spelling error? I will  also switch to the Race config to see if that works.

I was on it last night and was all good. Well, the server was all good, my driving was most definitely not.

[Bruce]

thanks all, I will recheck this evening and if need be have steam verify the local files.
Sorry I haven't been applying myself too well to AC at the moment, getting a bit worn out

You got one week to recover then I am on holidays

Hope to see you next in the Mazda GB.
Fixed, one file replaced, ready to go.
