It was a conversion from GT Legends, apparently. Not that I remember that track from GTL, although I do have vague memories of racing a Porsche 906 there in GTL. Bruce might remember...

I remember smashing a Corvette or two on this track, but I believe it was in rFactory with the Legends car addition.  I have a feeling by 2010 when this was created for GT Legends, we had transitioned to rFactor.  A great track, I checked there were no "holes" at the hairpin turnaround :) yet to fly off other parts yet, but this should give some good racing too!

Phil, have two cars in mind, but waiting on feedback from Seanus, or Lambo Muira v Merc 180 thingy?

Not sure I will well enough tonight  :-\
I have had a run in the Ferrari, sound great, not many gear changes required in this car, with the fixed ratios, it doesn't get out of 3rd!

I have been able to tame the rear end pretty quickly, it seems this mod, like the Cobra when it first came out, the back end was a little unpredictable, but certainly like it.  If anyone has a good setup could you upload it, I won't get much practice time.
Hope to see you the track tonight.

These cars were awesome, I really enjoyed the way these old cars moved around and the track was rather cool too.

Yeah likewise, really enjoyed these cars. Good call to stretch their legs a little with the banked turn too.

Did see some of the cars ahead jump 10 feet in the air and leave their wheels on the ground in the banked turn?

Yeah, I saw some strange things when cars were in the banking. :o
Seemed to be only when they were up top though. :-\

I saw cars leaping vertically between the 2nd and 3rd chicane but it didn't seem to happen when following another car closely...bit strange really
edit - I just saw there was an update for this track released Monday and I wonder if this addresses this problem...

Sorry I wasn't too well or strong last night,  a big SORRY for Seanus, in race two, once jumbed head onto the wall I just couldn't get the organised due to fatigue and mentally slow by then.  I was so muddled I should have sent you on.  very generous waiting for me.

The cars I liked, they sounded great and I have just read the Ferrari anniversary pack has a 1960 Ferrari in it!  :)
