Notable New Features (since ver 0.20):
- Four additional Rally Stages based on each timing sectors from original GPL version.
- Realroad plus fully reconstructed high detailed road surface mesh with 2% crossfall.
- Fully reconstructed offroad and terrain surface which eliminated all holes and gaps.
- 3D grass & night lights.
- Summer theme.

Additional Notes:

Performance:
- This track was made specifically around Draw Distance (LOD values), however some vehicle mods may use higher LODMultiplier setting that bypasses the track's default LOD value, and render far greater amount objects, which would result lower framerate and visual bug.
Note, if a track piece appears in the mid of air along the forward driving direction while using cockpit view, it means the car mod is set on a higher LODMultiplier value than default 1.0 value. Additionally, the default value for Swingman view is 2.0, which also enables you to see further than the track LOD is designed for. Higher LODMultiplier value will cause significant performance issue, as more objects rendered. However there is no way to enforce LODMultiplier value from track itself, the only fix is by editing car mod camera file.
- The 3D grass feature can be resource heavy, which is only enabled by setting "Circuit details" to Full.
- Disabling mirror (includes virtual mirror) can boost framerate a lot.

Timing:
- The track supports instant out lap timing. A couple of flag men stand next to paddock exit, and drivers must wait red flag to withdraw before exiting paddock, otherwise instant timing wouldn't work and penalty for "exiting pit under red" could be given. Note, paddock and pit lane are separated areas. Pit lane is located behind start/finish line. Instant timing is disabled in race session.

Rally stage "Drop Off" zone:
- For each rally stage layout, a special "Drop Off" zone is located a few hundred meters after finish line, where road surface collision is disabled and vehicle would drop off if drives on. This "Drop Off" zone is not a road bug or hole, but specifically designed for teleporting AI vehicles back to start line safely, as normally AI would not go back to garage by themselves on point-to-point type track.

-------------------------
!!! Important Note for Singleplayer !!!
Racing against more than 40 AIs could result serious performance issue, such as huge lagging or slow motion with player physics, due to heavy CPU usage from AI.
