This is the first track I have completed and released for Assetto Corsa. I found it by accident and then completely fell in love with it.

It is a street circuit, half of it a twisty old road through the jungle, and the other half a newer, straighter section. It was used between 1961 and 1973, when it was cancelled due to financial and safety issues. It was badged as the Orient Year Grand Prix, the Malaysian Grand Prix and finally the Singapore Grand Prix once Singapore gained its independence. It measured just over 3 miles in length, or 4.865km, and featured sections such as The Murder Mile (the main straight which had a hump halfway along its length which caused the cars to take off at high speed), The Snakes (a series of twists and turns as the track climbed up through the jungle) and Devil's Bend (the most dangerous corner on the circuit). Seven lives were lost in the circuit's 11 year history. There were no run-off areas, and most of the fast bends were surrounded by trees.

The track features a well detailed 500,000 tri physical mesh, is ready for AI races (with 24 grid spaces), Hot Lapping and Time Attack. It has been optimised to run as well as possible, with various levels of detail and careful use of textures and materials. I have added a dynamic racing line and tyre marks, static track-side details such as rubber debris and leaf litter, as well as a few dynamic objects ;) Oh, and camera set 2 is by @norbs and the old cars in the undergrowth are by Kunos :D

Thank you to everyone who has helped, or tested, or encouraged me along the way - you know who you are :)

Your tracks should be the benchmark for all other track modders.

I'm new to the whole Assetto Corsa mod scene, and this is, so far, the only track mod I've encountered with a visible Checkpoint Marker just like Kunos's tracks. Also the fact that the track choice is a dead Singapore track is just awesome, stands out a lot from the typical Europe-US tracks featured here. Love it, no problem whatsoever using the vanilla Assetto Corsa copy.
Beautiful, wonderful and a masterpiece. Or in other words, it's a Fat Alfie mod. Thank you
Great job!
A very fun circuit.
I forget the passage of time while driving.

Best of the best !
mod
thanks
Thank you this is a lovely track
what more to say about an AC legend? Tank yiu!
I tried the 1.0 version, and it is great as all of Fat Alfie tracks! Than you for this great work!
Excellent. Detail is just great. One lamp post at a very unfortunate spot but that just adds to the authenticity. A+
My favorite Fat-Alfie track just got better. I really didn't expect any updates after the 1.0 release, as I was already super happy that this rather unique location received an AC release. But these changes are definitely some welcome improvements, thank you very much.
Thank you so much for the update! I'm not exaggerating when saying I got goosebumps when I saw the notification on RD, it's really one of my favorite tracks with one of the flairest stories behind it.

"... and addressing the court, the lawyer said in a deep voice:

- It´s a Fat-Alfie work, what else could be added? Nothing further, Your Honor..."
Fantastic!
When I saw Fat-Alfie "updated" this track, first thought was "how could he make this any better". Well, night & rain (I never realized any of the other updates were even a problem! :) Still the wonderful track it's always been, and now more can enjoy same race, hope my PC has the oomph.
I live close to this track. It brought so much memories of the racing back in late 60s/early 70s. Thank you! The roads that made up this track are still there.
