TRACK MAP:

DESCRIPTION:
A fantasy track in Finland. The track is somewhat worn and not well maintained and as such the track surface is pretty bumpy and patched up. The track is fast flowing and traditional and is well suited for most cars. But the challenging old school nature makes it also tricky for the modern fast cars.

The track comes in three variations. The Full version is the full length track with the "old" loop making the track length 5.268 kilometers or 3.27 miles. The fast corners are challenging in all kinds of cars and the twistier bits are fun in all categories as well. The shortest Club layout is 3.442 km or 2.14 miles. This layout is optimal for single seaters and touring cars. Then there is the Trophy layout which leaves out the tighter corners of the full layout making its length little shorter at 4.4 kilometers or 2.73 miles. This layout is ideal for historic race cars and any fast cars.

There is a wet version of all of the layouts. In the dry there is little more grip on the racing line but in the wet it is advisable to experiment as there is little more grip off the racing line.

The track download also comes with some career events. You can find these in the career section of the game. There is a mix of hotlap events, races and quick races. The hotlap events have very difficult gold lap time targets. If you want those gold times you really need to work for them. The races have adjustable opponent strength which means you can tune the event difficulty to your liking.

The track also support night racing through the SOL addon and shaders patches in content manager. You need to have these installed to be able to use these features but these addons are purely optional and not required to be able to enjoy the track and career events.

I have not yet looked into the rain fx. But as it is now the rain layouts have things modelled like the dry racing line having less grip so rain racing lines do work. And puddles which the rain fx (as far as I know) doesn't do.

From my pov the main weakness of the track's rain configs is that the grip is very much set and for some cars there is too little grip and for some little too much as the same values don't work for all. I'll take a look at what rain fx does but I don't think overall it is better than what is there yet.
