Hello, everyone
When I was making my JET square, I found out that after a long time I again enjoy very much making an ordinary track. So after the square was done I started working a new circuit, which should meet the same level as all the ToM podium tracks I made back in 2011
I got the idea for the layout while I was racing in AleksiNir's Därin. Every time I drove through Därin's 2nd and 3rd corner, I thought that some kind of Maggots-Becketts reminding corner combination would be fitting after those corners. I used that idea as the base for the layout. When I was making the track, also the scenery was heavily inspired by Därin. Then at one point I got an idea about making the top part almost empty, and I think that it was a really good thing to do. So in the end, I think, the track ended up looking something like Därin meets Trigger Happy's Fionn Gorm with some my personal touches included. At least that's my feeling about the track.
The zip includes a version for 4:3 screen ratio (Maorgarnn.trk) and a version for 16:9 screen ratio (Maorgarnn W.trk).
I hope that you'll like the track and also drop some comments
Edit: Zip updated after 4 downloads. Added some persons that I had forgot to put on the track.

Re: [cir] Maorgarnn
I like it a lot and am glad, that one my track just a little bit inspired you, but I think something bit more in top would probably look bit better. Not much, possibly only runoffs in front of stand in top-right and outside the bend in top-left (from edge of forest until 1st pine in middle-top), because all of the runoffs (with quite distinctive texture) are currently spread in one half of map, so it would add more balance, I believe.
BTW driving very good too.

Re: [cir] Maorgarnn
Thanks, for your comment, Trigger Happy I am glad that you like the track, both how it looks and drives.
I wanted to go bit experimental in the top part by making it very plain, thus it looks how it is. About run-offs you suggested, IMO it wouldn't make much sense to have a run-off in top-left since it isn't a place where people would be driving off the track with high speed. But you're right that maybe there could have been a textured run-off in the second place you suggested.
BTW, I noticed that I had put persons on the pit wall only. I updated the zip with tracks that have persons in more places.

Re: [cir] Maorgarnn
To be frank, I must say it is a both superb and harmonious mix of those two great works by our trackmasters. Speaking of harmonious, (virtually) everything looks smooth and it is nice to see you brought in a Silverstone-esque characteristic of the Maggots-Becketts combination, which corresponds rather well in the two tracks this work is based on.
