I'll have to look.The AI limits might just be a tad too close to the wall. I assume this is all layouts?amazing track lovely to drive on... but the ai at the start all rub to the right on the wallseems a common thing in mod tracks.

I don't think he realised it was a WIP at that point. He was corrected in the chat after he said that. Notice that he kept wanting to have another go on it after getting crashed out, though, which is a sign of a good track.
Recently raced at WGI and had a terrific run thanks to the track that @LilSki so meticulously put together for all of us to enjoy. Last year, without a good version to prep with, I was 10 seconds slower/lap. This year, we got the car through almost the entire 95 car field before the engine let go.
Thanks for your hard work!
Here is just one lap to show the similarities.

LilSki updated Watkins Glen International with a new update entry:

That only confirms what we already knew;
It's a hell of a good track!
why so much grip? it was already a grip fest. now it's gonna be too much Kunos redbullring with brand new asphalt is 0.995
Evidence was shown to me that at .99 that laptimes from various cars were too low compared to their real life counterparts. Changing it to 1.01 brought it closer to real life times.
that's not down to track grip, it is down to kunos tyres, and most of the drivers uncapable, but mostly kunos tyres, i think you shouldn't compromise your track to that, grip levels are now unrealistic, now racing gt cars feels arcadish, no brake lockup, no powerslide :/
But then if you drive a mod that has proper tyre grip, it's too much
For example now GT3 cup car is 3 seconds faster than real life and that is with 98% grip
evidence and that is with previous version http://www.not.nu/server2/
So the previous version had 0.99 grip. Those laptimes are done with a 98% multiplier on that, so it's really 0.97. To take three seconds off of the time, you'd have to reduce it to roughly 94% of what it was. So then you're looking at needing an overall grip of about 0.91, which is as slippery as the curbs on most tracks. Clearly there's an issue with the car.
i'd say letting grip to 98 or 99 should be enough even if laptimes do not match, but increasing to 1.01 it just makes cars in AC feel glued to the track but hey i'm just saying, it's not my track, so do watever you prefer
Yes, their is clearly something wrong with this Car(ACRL Cup Car). I looked it up, and it is a modified GT3 Cup Version from Kunos, with better Physics/Suspension, so the Car is alot Faster through Corners etc.
car is not faster, it has much stiffer springs just like the real thing, wich makes it even slower
also ABS is disabled
I just ran some laps in the ACRL Porsche (v0.7 with 98% grip) and was also in the mid-1:48s. Tested one of my cars that's been verified at 4 other tracks in AC and it was exactly where its lap times should be (with v0.9); would have been too slow before the update.
