I'm just not sure there really needs to be another oval, I think it would be better to have a unique high speed track or some kind of highway as suggested above.

Quote from FPVaaron :

I'd like to alter my 7 year old idea slightly.

My perception on the 'fun factor' still remains but I'd like to see a speed track that you could do laps on.

Here's my idea.

• Something that resembles a country highway, no dividing barrier in the center, instead a dipping section of grass/dirt
  This would make going from one side to the next in a crash unlikely but not impossible.
  
• about 15-20km in total legnth with a tight section of corners at each end or a Hairpin.
  

• It should contain high speed sweeping corners that may require a slight throttle lift and a driving line
  
• At least one section which is dead straight 4km+ in legnth and is 2 lanes wide with 'some' bumps. This would mean over taking requires precision and skill by both parties.
  

This I think would satisfy the majority, combining skill, danger and top speed testing.

Perhaps a dividing barrier in the center could be an option for those worried about crashes in their server crossing over on purpose to ruin races.

I would like to see something like a long, straight-ish section of highway, potentially even part of a town/ small city to race in. I live in California, and to get from San Francisco to Los Angles means you must drive a few hours on a long freeway (as described above) called I-5. I have thought several times how it would be like if I could just see how fast I can go on there, it must be fun to test your car at full speed, driving about wide sweeping turns and (unfortunately) poorly leveled bridges over small creeks.

Hello guys, my friends finaly convinced me to try out lfs, and i'm quite impressed with the quality of this sim! I'm only on demo at the moment but sooner or later ill be purchacing S2.

Luckily I have my super old thrustmaster wheel to keep me company, however there's no way I can mount it infront of me on my current desk without some modifications.. at least I can use the pedals and use the mouse to steer!

edit: just checked my online stats.. I can't believe i've done 164 laps so far
