To be honest I do not think the Devs paid for the track to be laser scanned the info was probably handed over to them by Rockingham Management - Remember Rockingham is a new purpose built track, so I believe this is a one off deal which we will have to be grateful for
The track record shows that most new content is the result of individual deals over time if you look at all the all the real life cars and now Rockingham, I can't recollect the Dev's having to pay anything for these although I may be wrong, what I have realised over time is LFS is more of a hobby for the Devs and Money is not a factor in the equation, I'm just enjoying the ride
If the Dev's do make some money at the end of the day good on them they deserve a hell of a lot more
