My apologize. The back stretch wall was not named correctly, hence no collision. This has been corrected.
Sorry for the hassle, ladies and gentlemen.

Hey FormulaET! Your track is now in a good shape i think.
Makes a lot of fun, oval is tricky because the turns have two apexes
and have a very low banking. I like the new more grippier surface and
also these new yellow curbs on the inside.
Two questions:
Do you plan any further updates for this track and what
kind?
I'm just curious because i like your track and i like ovals so
i have to ask: Are you already working on other tracks (besides the
roadcourse and Clarksville of course) or do you plan new tracks for the future?
thanks and greetings.

Niki, thank you for kind words. Two apexes= exactly,Indy kinda sorta similar, but I know exactly what you mean.. you fit right in!! This track is very shallow in reality, so.... it lends to more passing and little more finesse.. we are spoiled by heavy banking ovals.
I have another local track in mind that A.J. Foyt designed, I want to wait as to not spoil it.... I haven't begun the process.
Recently got lights going for night racing. These will be proper flood lights, still tweaking and such. These will be included in next update.. which btw, I am hoping to compile an entire layout catalogue for Milwaukee and Clarksville as to make it easier for you all to install.
Clarksville usually goes into the evening when they race, just finishing up the lights for it. I added a grip tweak to that as well to be somewhat well rounded for most cars, including hoopty stock type cars, non modded race cars, which you can run there in the real world; for example, they run a class on the oval of stock 4 cylinder engine, no intake mods, no heavy suspension modifications, but you can run straight pipe, un-capped headers, but everything stock... these guys really go at it, till the bigger V8's come out.
The Milwaukee Road course, will have the original SCCA type layout in the future, by another member's request. My Custom is just a small track adjustment to lend to high speed high rev cars, a hyper-small road course for open wheelers..
But that's about it for the moment, updates to come in the next couple days or weeks.

Night racing under flood lights at Milwaukee, sounds pretty
good! Clarksville as well, and also the original layout of the
roadcourse.Thanks for your answers and especially thanks
for your efforts (building proper tracks is hard work).

By the way it's a shame that Milwaukee isn't part of the
Indycar schedule anymore, had a long tradition but will
never come back highly likely. Watched every CART/Champ-
car race between 1995 and 2004-5 but unfortunately i can't
remember the races at Milwaukee anymore for some reason.
Other tracks that are gone i can remember well like Cleveland
or Vancouver but not Milwaukee. But i've often read that the
racing there has been decent at best in most cases because
it's hard to overtake, though i don't need hundreds of passes
to consider an oval race as being good. I think i should watch
a race on Youtube to wallow in nostalgia lol.

I reference passing in lieu of the higher speed cars, like F1 or even some of the Indy Car mods. Totally a subjective view when it comes to Milwaukee. I was meaning in the context of sim racing. Which I discovered when racing with friends, it got quite competitive. But you are correct, the history shows it was difficult to pass there.
Nice to hear you jump in the thread.
here is how Custom GP Night lights is coming.... Had to fire up the Ayrton mobile for this demo:::::

Still pondering what to use for lighting over the pit boxes.​

Bare with me guys, I am currently working on a few projects. Hope to update some of the objects for this track.
Track modding, certainly is a long, timely process.
