As you say around 3:00, some mods are superior to the factory tracks....... I'm pretty much new at this, but I came across Virginia International Raceway....... just awesome, and generous. Part of my career was drafting and design with AutoCAD in civil engineering/land surveying, and 3D Studio for visualization for aviation electronics. I'm really curious about how the track-making process starts....... there's no question it's a major undertaking way beyond converting terrain data and sticking textures on it :) Good channel, man. Thanks for the excellence.

Some of the lesser known club tracks that are very well made and good fun with smaller cars like the Lotus 2-Eleven or KTM; - LuccaRing's a real road fictional track that has great scenery and immersion. - Tocancipa and Tor Poznan - both flat but they have a real track day feel. - Okayama - Yes it's the legendarily slow TI Aida from the Pacific Gp but it's very impressive technically.

Worth mentioning that the track shown at the very start and the very end of the video is the amazing scratch built historical recreation of Riverside by LilSki.

Having said all that, it's just a crying shame that the console version of AC was a massive cop-out, with only a few circuits worth driving and only a maximum 16 car grid for each race. If I get round to getting a machine worthy of the PC game, I just might give it a whirl.

Has anyone done a Highlands 101 mod ? That looks like a great track to race on. Seen some awesome onboard footage of Shane van Gisbergen driving the McLaren 650s gt3 on that track.

Disagree a bit with the list, in parts. LilSki stuff + Donington is great, but outside that.. Paul Ricard is flawless representation, but IRL the track is one of ugliest racetracks on planet. Barbagallo Raceway looks great, but the road physical mesh is kinda boring (no road feel). Road America is good track IRL but some of the visual work like mirrored trees is sloppy, when you compare to incredible detail to put into something like VIR. Would put VIR on top of list. Thomson Road GP, NJMP Lightning, Thruxton (requires separate updated AI line, though) and Shanghai Tianma Circuit, Tor Poznań (which is actually laser scanned). For drifting Zmeinka. For just great countryside scenery drive, Aspertsham. Fictional stuff Tajo Hillclimb, LuccaRing. But good thing of course that we can download all of them :-)

Is there another VIR mod, or we speaking about same? LilSki, Darren Blythe (who made Barbagallo) and rest of the VIR team worked for nearly 2 years on it. Their own words: "The track itself has been painstakingly modeled from scratch using several sources of technical data, countless photographs, hours of video footage and real world feedback from drivers and racers. It contains all seven layouts: Full, Grand East, Grand West, North, South, Patriot & Patriot Reverse. All are fully functioning with AI. Each layout has it's own look and feel in accordance with real life." It has even unlockable secrets. What mod track has unlockable secrets? Are you referring to the tarmac texture? How should track that was very recently resurfaced IRL look then?
