2008 Trackpack - Released!

I am extremely pleased to say its finally time for the 2008 Trackpack to be released!

Also, as i uploaded the pack a week or so ago, and i haven't been able to upload all the files again (internet capped to about 1/20 of normal speed...), the readme contains a few errors. Therefore, the final readme is below, and i will gradually replace the files with the correct readme.

This also proves the vital contribution of a fantastic bunch of people, and i fully appreciate and am thankful for their individual contributions on this project.
