Questions Regarding Several Tracks

[Enter Sandman]

I am thinking about several different tracks to download for my upcoming offline league in late summer/fall.

Iowa Speedway
Monaco
Lacuna Seca
Suzuka
Yas Marina
Silverstone

My question is this. Are there versions of these tracks out there that have 43 car fields and will work with normal .cup physics? I know some tracks are .owr specific, but my league will run the original cup mod. My time is still pretty limited, and considering that I still have templates and contingencies for the series to make in addition to commitments to other leagues, I figured I should ask the experts and get an answer before spending several hours searching only to be disappointed.

I can tell you now, you will not find a Monaco that comes close to a 43 car field, I also haven't found a Silverstone with a 43 car field but I'm not willing to rule it out ( another British circuit, Snetterton, has one and if you tinker with the AI it can be one of the most exciting road circuits).

There is an ini edit available on NNracing for Iowa for a 43 car field (the original track ran 37 0r 38 but I haven't run the 43 car ini yet).

Laguna Seca, there is a 43 car field but you'll have to go back to Dave Noonan's original conversion... the track has that kind of bleak landscape most conversions have and there is a problem in the Corkscrew in the GTP mod (and maybe PTA) where cars ground out terminally damaging themselves but otherwise the track runs good for the cup mod but no matter how much I tinker with the ai I cannot get an especially exciting race.

Have a good look around for roadies, there are a lot of excellent Aussie, British and US circuits that have been made out there. DEI-racing is your friend when it comes to looking for these tracks including the Laguna Seca one.

I have absolutely no clue how to do anything with .inis, but that's alot of great information. It'll help out alot. Thank you. Now to get to work lol.

Circuit de Milano is another great one. I have Iowa Speedway that has 43 cars but I don't know where I got it from. Same way with Silverstone, I know I have that with 43 cars.

If you don't mind an old track, Riverside from cup is another great Road Course.

Like I said, there probably is a Silverstone out there. Talking about old school roadies. Bridgehampton is awesome and its hard to go wrong with Spa Francochamps (although not sure if there is a 43 car field track with fully functioning ai out there).

Also four Aussie tracks that run awesome: Bargallo, Symmons Plain, Surfers Paradise and Calder Park.

Looking at my notes, I don't think I had a 43 car Snetterton, but Brands Hatch is a great UK circuit as well with really good ai.

Riverside was already pretty much set to be the season opener. Brands Hatch, Silverstone, Milano, Surfers Paradise....all sound pretty good to me, as does Spa if there's a 43 car field version.
