Welcome to Circuit Thermalito.
Release Trailer
About the Track
Circuit Thermalito is a 5.035km fictional temporary race track based on a real life location, using the actual roads surrounding the Thermalito Dam in Oroville, California. Winding its way between the walls along the water's edge, and through two tunnels in the dam itself, Circuit Thermalito features high speed elevation changes, sweeping banked corners and slow speed technical sections which all come together to create an incredibly challenging, yet hugely rewarding, driving experience.
Originally made by DDF Racer (https://www.youtube.com/ddfracer) using limited satellite data 15 years ago for rFactor, Circuit Thermalito has been completely rebuilt from scratch to modern standards in stunning detail by Nukedrop. Crowdfunded on Kickstarter by the DDF Racer YouTube community and using hi resolution laser scan data, drone footage and countless photographs of the area, Circuit Thermalito is now available to download for free for Assetto Corsa.
Due to the drastic elevation changes, this track may not be suitable for AI Races against some of the top tier open wheel race cars.
Features:
3D grass, 3D trees, full RainFX, full night lighting, AI, 44 grid sllots.
Please see the config.ini if you wish to use 2D trees instead of 3D trees to save performance.
Requirements:
As usual, CSP and Content Manager ARE REQUIRED.
If you have any issues, please consult the guide below before leaving a negative review.
