Wow! This looks amazing already, and I can't wait to drive on the finished product.

It'll be a perfect track for the upcoming "US States Trophy" carset I have started working on...  ;)

Hmmm, that sounds interesting Pascal. We've really started something with you painting cars, haven't we?  :D

You've unleashed a monster!  ;D

Imagine what it would be if I had proper equipment at my disposal...  ;)

Just so ya'll know, he announced this track back in June, I think, in the NR2K3Tracks Forum. So I knew of this WAY before you all did :D

Actually we've been working on it for around a year now. I think I may have announced this here and other places last winter some time.  ;D Whenever it was, I'm glad to see the light at the end of the tunnel (hmmm, that's another clue to one of the features of the track.)

Hoping for Christmas or New Years, but it really depends on Stefano's real-life work. I'm mostly just a cheerleader for all the work he's put into it.

Oh duh..... Sorry about that. :D

It's a 5.5 mile road course with a lot of elevation changes, winding through the pine trees and rock formations. The track is shaped like a cowboy boot with a spur on it. Not that you can tell from driving it, other than the spur (a corkscrew bridge) I can't tell where I am on the boot.

I don't even know what all the stuff you'll see along the track will be, but I know there's going to be wildlife, antique cars and some references to old movies made in the Black Hills.
