    … is an old story, but the hope dies last. For the oval action I would prefer a new FR car. Best of all would be if we get a 100% copy of a late 90s CART / ChampCar bullet … as far as I know, there are no copyrights for the design of a car, just for the name. So go to USA, visit a IndyCar museum, laser scan one of the old CART monsters and then just rename it to "FR US 98", and that's it! … The mode developer of "United Racing Design" do the same: They creat a 100% copy of the new Ford GT GTE, but sell it as: Detroit EGT 2018: https://www.unitedracingdesign.net/shop-1

    That's probably not all that legal honestly. :p They skirt the line pretty closely with some of the stuff they do.

    But they operate out of eastern Europe... so who is really going to hit them with takedowns and IP infringement?

    Here's a nice track overview from MotoGP:



    and here's an onboard:



    I probably need to drive it to make my final decision but from what I can see in the videos, I don't think I'll be a huge fan of it. Feels like one of those synthentic, lots-of-90-degree-turns type of track. Just lacks the soul that other, more classical circuits have, in my view.

    Agree. My no. 1 asian track is the Okayama International Circuit (the only track which I will buy in R3E one day), but the Twin Ring Motegi has also my attention, because it has a nice oval layout … I will wait until R3E offers oval racing too, then Motegi will be a part of my track list.

    Motegi was one of my wishes on the wishlist so very happy with this announcement!
    Great memories and unique layout..
    Track isn't really flat in my opinion though :) parts are but it is not like Silverstone for example..
    Looking forward getting back to grips with it..
