I don't usually enjoy hillclimbs so much but this is so much fun. Nice sweeping bends and inclines. Had great fun with a little BMW Z4 hillclimb car i downloaded.

Absolutely the greatest track for a long while. My favourite now.
I love it, you must have put a lot of effort in this one with all the details. Sometimes I loose my concentration: "What was that? A London bus?"
Next time I will stop and look closer.
Great job!

Haha thanks, yeah that bus is there in real life (well, it was gone last time I drove by). One thing I'm trying to do with my mods is make sure to add as much true-to-life character as possible, as I find those types of things serve as good landmarks for some point of reference when driving the track. That's also one aspect that I could tinker FOREVER with, so it can be dangerous for making progress.

Lifelong resident of Topanga Canyon here, and this is fantastic and a literal dream come true for me. Great representation of the detail in the various recognizable shops throughout the store, roadway feels like a faithful representation of the real world version. The strawberry signs at the start let me know immediately that this modder meant business.

One thing I would adjust is the density/height of trees in certain areas. There are two turns in particular toward the later half of the uphill route where there are clear sightlines in real life, but there are large trees in the way in this mod.. it's a bit disorienting as it makes the corners look like completely alien ones. Aside from that, and the fact that every street sign is the Entrado sign, I cannot imagine a more faithful reproduction. And beyond that, it's the main thoroughfare I've had to use in my life so it's amazing to get to drive it in a sim, especially now while I'm stuck at home and my car is in the shop from falling out of repair due to disuse. Anyway, back to the positive -> this track is great, cannot wait to see any future updates.. also cannot wait to see the Mullholland Highway track once it's ready.

I'm very happy to have the approval of a Topanga resident! Awesome! Glad you're digging it. Thanks for the feedback regarding the trees as well. I've just released an update some new track variations, and I also took a look at the trees in the downhill section just before Mulholland using my dashcam footage as reference. I trimmed a bunch of them back. In future releases I will be doing my best to comb through the rest of the track in a similar manner. Also, just to make sure to not get your hopes up too much, the next track I'm working on is actually Mulholland "Drive" between the 405 and the 101, not "Highway" near Malibu :( Perhaps in the future once I've streamlined my creation process as that road is quite long and detailed. Piuma and Stunt are on my short list after Mulholland Dr, however!

Seriously awesome mod with a lot of care put into it. Feels just like a real California road to this Californian. If you like LA Canyons this is a must-have.

I used to take this drive 4 times a week to school. You have done an amazing job! I used to drive my lexus around here like it was a race car and now I actually can drive a race car on it! Great job, and can't wait for future updates!

Tracks like this are the reason for love Assetto Corsa more than Competizione. Awesome work, thank you

I grew up driving this road and it all came rushing back to me as soon as I got in. It felt like exactly what I remember and I was able to pick it up again pretty quick. Feels like a perfect re-creation! I spent three hours in VR driving all sorts of different cars tonight, so so so so good. I have my fingers crossed that Stunt Road is next. 100000/10 <3

Awesome, thanks, glad you're digging it and that you find it close to reality! And actually, you may just be in luck. Mulholland Drive is next, as I'm already 75% finished with it, but after that my plan is to do Piuma + Stunt. It will probably be a while yet, but for that stretch I'm hoping to begin releasing alpha versions of my tracks early in the process to keep me from just sitting on stuff for years like I did with Topanga.

I thoroughly enjoyed the first version of the hillclimb, however the addition of traffic and a race option made it all the better. Thank you Todd K , excellent work!

The amount of detail, u put into this track, is just flabbergasting. I watched a video on YT, where somebody drives this road, and its incredible to drive your track afterwards. The LumberCo., Liquorshop and everything looks so original. Very nice job, dude!
