It should not be a problem. Actually there is also one oval available: Speed Ring Oval by Zeppelin...but I don't know where to download it.
And I also have a early beta version of the Lauzitzring tri-oval (by Tony, but stopped for the moment). On both tracks the cc-cars have realistic speed in the long banked curves.

EDIT: Damn, Jorge beats me

Martin the speed rink of zeppelin is available at gp4world. Its the first file i uploaded and posted

yeh, i didnt get realistic performance on that track, maybe it was to do with the carset and physics i was using at the time. there seemed to be a lot of accidents. ill try it again but.

Their was one guy that used this track to make a speed record in zepellin Oval. He acomplished 400km/h with 855bhp , to me was very funny. jeje.

Cheers

nice to get a new oval again

Upping the topic for some good news

The first beta version of the track, called beta1, has been distributed to the beta-testers, so that they could give me some feedback through a competition.

Then, I will apply the suggestions I recieve, correct some bugs and release the result, called beta2, publicly, I hope in three weeks. It will still be far from being a full version though...

And so that you can wait, here are some GP4Builder shots of what we have at the moment :











(sorry for the lack of AA in the screens...)

All suggestions are welcome

EDIT - BTW, the pitlane has been reduced as pointed earlier in this thread.
