    Just (almost) did a lap in the Fvintage gen-1 and well... the track looks spectacular. I did notice a lag-spike on the straight exiting the Sudschleife and a stutter while in the Nordschliefe (I have no clue where it was). Luckily the thing that caused me to not finish the lap was 100% driver error

    On my 1.4.7., historic Nordschleife does not appear. ^^ Maybe I'm blind?

    I had the same issue but I think it is because I didn't "uninstall" the old bootfiles before downloading the update. I then switched to non release candidate and back again and it was there.

    I literally had to pull over and look at the view. Only other time that has happened on any track in any game was with historic spa on AMS2. Unbelievably beautiful work.

    One more thing i would like is the Betonschliefe, which would be great for racing the mini. Mini is actually great around the sudschliefe, which reminds me of a hillclimb
