Niiiice, you could do with posting some screens but I'll grab this as it is my "local" karting track. Haven't been there for a while but it's so much fun - especially with those twin engined karts

FYI, there's already another track mod that uses the folder name "lakeside." Maybe you could rename your mod's folder, and corresponding files, to "lakeside_karting."

This is a GREAT TRACK! Credit to the originator. It is just like the real karting track and weirdly a BRILLIANT DRIFT TRACK too. Thanks

That could be a problem for some users. I'll see what I can do. Thanks for alerting me.

Lakeside_Karting Name change

Changed name due to clash.
p.s AI behaviour is sub-optimal (to put it lightly). I might be getting help on this...

If you want realism then you need to add ballast and restrict the air intake, then they bog on the hills just like IRL lol. I'll post up a few screens now

As long as I can go flat out on the top section and the downhill bit I'll be happy.

There's a bump on the left kink that I dont think exists but you do get the bit of air at "Devil's Drop" as in real life. Always find the braking zone for the final hairpin tricky.
It's pretty close to real life - at least I think so anyway

Nice, i'm gonna be honest and say I haven't had a chance to try it yet, but I'll fire it up after I watch the new episode of Top Gear

Ok i finally tried it out last night and I just want to say it's pretty good as far as layout goes, the tyre walls are a bit high in places and the track could do with better textures but overall it's a good effort.
I updated the map and outline so it matches the track (used CM to do this so I can send them your way if you want unless you can do this yourself)
