    (Inspired by thread: Your wishes for RX cars?)

    What we know about the Adrenaline Pack at the time of making this poll:
    Speculation: The way I read the above quotes, we are likely to get at least one "Adrenaline Pack part X" which is all about rallycross, similar to how Racin' USA Pack part 2 focused solely on oval racing. That means that I expect to see at least 3 true mixed-surface rallycross locations, like we got 3 oval locations. Since there is good rallycross content in AMS1, I expect to see some/most of it ported over to AMS2 as well.


    How I arrived at the poll alternatives:
    • Existing locations in AMS2 that have RX tracks, which should be easier to make than if starting from scratch
    • RX tracks in AMS1 that can be ported over to AMS2
    • Poll is limited to 20 alternatives, so for everything else that I couldn't fit or forgot, I grouped the "other" answer into different eras/rulesets
    • Arbitrarily limited to 6 answers, to get those dilemma braincells working
    As I'm a big fan of 1980-2000 era European Rallycross, that's what comes to mind when I think of RX tracks, so I apologize that I haven't included a more worldwide selection of poll alternatives. Please pick the appropriate "other" answer(s) and share a comment with anything that I missed.

    Some tracks that I couldn't fit into the poll options, many of them from DiRT, Project Cars 2, and iRacing:

    Barcelona, Charlotte, Croft, Circuit des Ducs (Essay), Estering, Franciacorta, Iowa, Lohéac, Lyngåsbanen, Lucas Oil, Mondello Park, Montalegre, Sonoma, Strängnäs, Svampabanan (Tomelilla), Trois-Rivières

    First of all, I hope for a substantial number of tracks and with several layouts (not like the ovals which are too few and for which 2 more would be welcome), so as not to get bored too quickly. I also hope that Reiza's Mod support will make it easier for PC2 tracks to arrive.
    Another thing would be dirt tracks only and snow/ice tracks. These 2 elements would bring fun.

    As much as I'd love to see multiple rally RX tracks and or the majority of tracks from PC2 brought to AMS2....I have my doubts after seeing only 3 oval tracks brought to the title.

    That being said, I'm looking at things for the adrenaline DLC a little different after watching the ROC snow + ice this weekend in Sweden.
    Smaller and possibly more cost efficient for them.

    As the engine is capable of snow, ice, dirt loose surface physics.
    I'd love to see the following which can be based off RL tracks or fictional being the much cheaper route.
    Personally, I'd be happier with half a dozen well done fictional tracks than 2 or 3 licensed tracks.

    ROC style tracks, snow and ice version.
    A dirt version
    A stadium tarmac version.

    Add ramps to several current in-game tracks like AMS.

    Add dirt to sections of smaller tracks already in game.
    Ex. Brands Hatch Indy, Daytona infield etc.

    I agree with you and have the same concerns. Reiza only brought 3 ovals, which leads to a fairly quick boredom. If the RX tracks have the same degree of recklessness, boredom will be around the corner...

    With the June 2023 Dev Update pt. 1, the veil has been lifted. We got the following announcements:
    • Barcelona
    • Hockenheimring
    • Nürburgring
    • Spa-Francorchamps
    • Ascurra
    • Foz
    • Tykki
    That leaves us with the following tracks that were most popular in the poll above and that have not been announced:
    • Lydden Hill
    • Lånkebanen (Hell)
    • Höljesbanan
    • Daytona
    • Brands Hatch
    • Knockhill
    • Silverstone
    The good news:
    Half of these (Lydden, Hell, Brands historic, Knockhill, Daytona) are available in Project Cars 2, and we've recently seen a few converted track mods from PC2, so there is reason to be optimistic! :)

    The other circuits which are versions of sims already in the sim will hopefully be added

    Although I'm really excited by the potential of all the real tracks that we might get, I've always loved the wide open fictional rally tracks in Gran Turismo, Sega Rally etc. They really let the cars spread their wings. Combine open flowing tracks with the best sim physics in the genre and you'd have rally heaven to my mind.

    All of the UK RX tracks, ofcourse. Scandinavian as well. Non-RX I hope for some hillclimb or perhaps standalone closed rally courses, like Ounjapouja or Sweetlamb or so.

    hill climbs, can of course be fictional which makes licencing not a problem

    anywhere ranging from 5 mins to 10mins climbs

    Reiza could probably ask Raceroom to get the pure organic LakeviewHillclimb to a special friendly price.
    As a favour from one dev to another :whistle:
    But seriously its one of the best and challenging tracks in Raceroom.
    Check this video out.
    The lap was run by one of the fastest guys at that time :D

    ByTheWay: You have to play a bit with the socalled Quality setting because the video IS sharp.

    I am happy with any RX tracks as long as there is enough for a good rotation.
    More interested in having proper race formats for online. Ex, practice, qualifying, heats.
    PC2 mp was poorly implemented
