Wellington 500 1987-1992 2022-07-23

A fantastic street circuit largely lost to history. The Wellington street circuit used in 1980s and 1990s touring car racing. Including the famous (or infamous?) WTCC 1987 season. To learn more about the event's history, check out Wikipedia:

This gorgeous mod from RaceFactor shows off the layout used between 1987 and 1992. A picture of the layout is below.


It's a fun and very challenging circuit to lap, especially in 1980s touring cars such as those in the venerable Touring Car Legends mod. But also fun to race!

The following video, although somewhat low-res, gives a good idea what this track looks like:

A thread from when this track was first released in 2011 on RD is still available!

This is not my mod. All credits go to the original creators. I've decided to upload this mod to RaceDepartment for the sake of the enjoyment of the community and archival preservation. More and more sources for rF1 mods are disappearing, and to ensure these amazing community creations are not lost forever, it is essential that they are preserved elsewhere on the internet - preferably in well-known, trusted locations like RD. Thank you to Tripp, who ran the TrippTeam server, the place where an incredibly comprehensive archive of rF1 mods was maintained for many years (and the spot from which I downloaded this mod). Should the original modders prefer that this be taken down, please let me know, and I will do so.
