    i had raced here with gpl in a abridged circuit. this mean the track is shorter than real, yes? i played with diferent mods of the gpl (gt`s, 67`s,...) and when i saw the new version, the real version, the long one, of the track i thought "umh, this is quite faster!! the abridged one has the straighs quite shorter and the curve more closer. there are more curve flat out. quite fun."

    it´s not laser scanned, but it works for me.

    They have not succeeded. A bad precedent for future projects.

    There was a game on the PS2 (Yes...Playstation 2..) where the Manx Track was created to a good level of detail.
    Superbikes - Isle of Man TT
    Developer was "Jester"
    It's a shame that Data is not available somehow...

    This is me flying around on a Gixxer... I used to know this track very well, but that knowledge has long since gone :(
