It's time to back for Bugatti.

Looks cool . But one thing I don't see right now, it's La Sarthe pit entry .

A little update of the land:

And how to make pit lane...
(WS 225)

Shorten this part a bit

Exactly what Marinator said. Also, in that place there is not one left corner with a big radius leading into the park, but instead you have two corners with a small radius leading left. Also the last corner should be wider (a) if you look at it in real life and (b) if you want to have a chance to fit in the pit lane.

Another update.

EDIT:

Boosts in GeneRally
That is strictly an idea, I don't really know if it's new, as it's a common element of many arcade racing games, but has anyone tried it in GR? I've never heard about it so I just assume the answer is no.
I was racing at Genemania track recently, wondering if there is any way to introduce an actual working boost to our game and actually, there is one that works really well The trick is very simple, but you need a properly prepared car with negative slowdown value on some surface, let's say the yellow line. Then if you draw yellow arrows (just like TrackMania boosts look like) on a track, every time you touch them with your car you get an additional acceleration - the negative slowdown value must be kept within sensible limits though, because otherwise the game tends to crash if the cars' behaviour is too extreme.

I'm a pretty lousy trackmaker so don't expect me to implement this idea, but I hope someone will make a good use of this finding anyway, it does have a potential

I remember on that track and actually a Trackmania carpack has also been created to this, if I recall well, by Haruna.

You're right, thanks for that (well, it's a FraG Design car actually, but I mean the fact it's been used already). It's a nice idea anyway, I hope we'll yet to see some fun stunt tracks - if someone's interested in making these, I can help with the cars.

I didn't show, but there is more progress...

What do you think about it?

Lausitzring

Any ideas for final touches?

Looks promising Wouter . I'd move the whole lmap more to the center (closer to the viewer). So there is some space at the top .

Here are the preview as promised. Those tracks specificaly are from early 2016 to 2 months ago.
The actual track pack will contain tracks dating back from late 2013, if that makes any sense!

This looks fun some kind of rally?

Some stand-alone rally stages and a hillclimb track at an "american style" road.

Todo:
- left-bottom near stands

....a parking maybe?

You could also remove some trees on the top-right to make more visible the river...

For a moment there I felt like: Is that a Lydden Hill circuit?
Maybe there is too many stands placed, I'd leave just 4 of them and try to move them closer to the start/finish line .
Also try some bushes under the trees at the edge for the proper dense forest feeling.

Last WIP before release.

And again some more progress...
