Only everyting is very blue. I have a calibrated Eizo monitor, so for sure it's not my monitor. Fix... Copied the daylight colors from VLM Mid Ohio GDB file in to the Las Vegas GDB. Suddenly all colors of the textures looked much more natural. Like in a sunny day instead of icey blue color. Objects also looked a bit more solid, shadows casted a bit stronger.

I guess I just dont like city tracks as they are usually very flat. </blockquote> Can't agree with you on the second part. I love the first turn with the huge bump on the exit, and the following few (well, quite a many actually) 90° corners are just so much fun to take! :happy: Have only tried the chicaned version yet and wow, what a tough combination! No room for error in the chicane and a huge bump on the exit which usually slingshots me either in the pit or against the wall between the track and pit. Lot of fun anyhow though! :happy: AI does need some work. Even on 120% they are really slow. They seem to forget to accelarate after the 90° corners. They take the last corner perfect though, hard to keep up with them there. This track also seems fps heavy. In the middle section of the track my fps dropped a few times. And this with only running 19 AI cars (EOAA GT). Never happened to me before on any track since I have my "new" pc (E8500, 9800GT, 2 GB RAM). I have all my setting on the highest possible and running in 1680x1050. Thanks anyway! Nice track! Never heard of this track before and will YouTube some real life videos for sure tonight! Can't imagine how you could take that first corner with that huge bump on the exit with a open wheeler. Rest of the track is also really bumpy. I love it!

I don't have to try it to know if I like it, it's a street track so for me it's automatically awesome :D Yeah the ambient colour or whatever is too blue.

If you'd cut down on the models, polygons and texture resolution and instead make just better textures it would look a lot better and be just a "fraction" of the size. Sure, wiith a more advanced lighting engine it would look very different, a lot better. If/when this is converted for rF2 it should actually look like something. 91 megs and the track looks more sterile than an operating room.
