Badura_Racing258 Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 There are plenty tracks out there. There's about 30, plus there is the reverse versions of most. Obviously it would be nice to have more tracks, but why don't you just be quietly grateful for the (plenty of..) tracks that there are? People are busy, and have a life... If your bored, take up another mod. Drive the 'wrong way' if your tired and bored of the same tracks then? Cheers, Hack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F1´s are not made to drive slowly aren´t they??? no they ar made to have contact in the corners, to get an advantage of the others, or to just enterain the crowd with big hits....

Blobbs! Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Been reading this topic with great interest. I've been seriously hoping to give it a try - and model a track that hasnt been done yet. From previous experience, the whole skin painting thing can be a bit of a pain if not using the correct software for 'painting' and conversion of files. My question is - does it matter on the version of 3d max that is used for modelling for nascar heat? It appears that version 8.0 is now out. I am sure i hae seen somewhere, that v3.0 is the one to use, but i can't find the thread!! I AM serious about this. I'm NOT gonna just post and hope some-ones gonna do it for me.... (see ps below!!) So, If you can just tell me the best software (3ds max?) to use, i'll try and take it from there. This may be the last post you ever hear from me regarding it. Or you may never hear from me again if i ram my head into the monitor hard enough in a temper! (ps - if anyone wants to model a new track, and then let me have it so i can put my name to it..... msn me!) (pps - if anyone seriously wants pics of a real track to do, i can get as many and as detailed pics as you like of it.) stockcarcrazy@hotmail.com well..... you never know!

The reason we have to use version 3 of max is because thats the only version that the Nascar Heat exporter works with.

Edman23 Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Why make Venray, it's too fast and there's not enough contact. The Tooz are screaming their heads off after the changes made prior to the September meeting. Gee, there are no diffs available to run the Tooz properly on that track. And by the way, following the going ons in the papers I don't even think there will be any meetings there anymore. Majer. if you're from Maastricht, there's a track closer to you than Venray, isn't there. I'd hate to see Venray close but unless they make the straights half as wide as they are now, they will never get the speed out of the cars and will thus never get decent stock car races there. For those who say, but what about the Hotrods, well, yes, what about them. That formula has been devaluated by the drivers themselves. Useless contact is just one of the things. After dropping the Stockrods it might be an idea to drop the Hotrods and Formula Toyota too and make it all contact formula's up there. Maybe invite the dirt boys over for every meeting, so they can smoke their tyres. Cheers, Edman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think that the speed at the straights is the real problem, i think that the corners are far to wide. Cars can take those turns at a very high speed wich makes it impossible to hit someone properly. If they make the corners smaller / shorter they have to slow down more to take the turns wich gives drivers more the opportunity to push the driver in front of him wide and to pass him. In last few years theyve changed the track in some ways and the cars just go faster and faster wich isnt a good thing. Its getting more dangerous and the racing is just boring as there is almost non-contact (just talking about F1's as they are the only races i see on a raceday) Cheers Mark Edited November 9, 2005 by H33Racing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edman23 Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Mark, the straights are so wide, 5 or 6 F1's are able to race side by side, if you reduce them to half, cars will not be able to use as much track as they are now, so the ideal line will be completely different, sure you also have to alter the corners, but let's put the top speed down first. I mean, I've seen a top speed of 126 km/h from one of the F2 boys and that's rediculous. As I said, the changes made have made the track even faster. I really hope they're going to do something to bring the speeds down, but I doubt they will. If they widen turns 1 and 2 like they did to turns 3 and 4 the racing will very soon be as boring as the racing at Lelystad. Maybe build a smaller track with a pos and wire fence?? Cheers, Edman.

H33Racing Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Maybe build a smaller track with a pos and wire fence?? Cheers, Edman. Ok your right about that Edman, and indeed the best way is an entire new track. Only i think Mr Maessen wants the opposite of what we want. He just wants things bigger and faster. I also heard if Venray closes and if he moves to Oirlo (i know .. those are a lot of "if's") he's gonna build a long track again wich i personally dont hope as i think we will be losing lots of drivers then. I think drivers with the most money will drive in front there as they will be getting bigger and bigger engines. So low budget racers wont have a chance there. But we will see what the future will bring us and lets hope the best of it. Cheers Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psyko75 Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Hopefully never again a long track. to bad to view and way to dangerours for everybody. I think the smaller corners are the best way to do as i like the big boys going fast on the straights. As i have not been on other tracks for a long time and here it was said a F2 went 126 km/h on venray after the last changes. Whats the averange speed on tarmac tracks in uk for F2 (and i don´t mean on that little little tracks) maybe Ipswich as i allways thought it was a fast track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edman23 Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Psycko, Ipswich is a Spudworth track, they don't race F2's. Think the fastest F2 track will be Hednesford but I doubt it's faster than Venray. Just take a look at the my laps website and you'll be able to check out the speeds. Note that the 126 km/h was not an average speed but a highest speed. Still this is too fast. O, and what's wrong with the very small tracks, I used to love Tilburg, it was small and you didn't need 25 cars out on track to get a good race. H33, maybe you guys should sign up with CAMSO for their alternative F1 stox, just to put pressure on Maessen. Remember, if he goes long track racing, there will prolly be 1 or 2 drivers left capable of winning, the rest will quit or go race at Lelystad. I'm thinking of doing more dirt meetings next year, usually cheaper entrance price and more action. The EZHACO tracks are not that far away and I enjoyed my first meeting there. Cheers, Edman.
