Sorry to keep posting new versions, but this one should be more fun because I brought more buildings on the downtown side back into the track. The .SG has not changed, so I have the same questions as what I posted yesterday.

I'm sure we will need some and maybe I can help with the track.txt as well.It's getting real close. I just need to place some more TSDs and fix the brake marker placement for the far side (as you can see in the screenshot). The next big project is probably getting the trackside billboards in - those should help give you more braking cues too. You want skid marks too? I can try to generate some.
It will probably take me a few weeks to get theme where I want them to be since I need to get really fast here first.

I keep thinking back to Caesars when I had already made the LPs but you kept adding whip-cream and cherries onto the top of the sundae.It has gotten to a point where I have to force myself not to waste time playing and admiring my own track. Which I guess is a good sign of the progress!

Track layout is not finished and tested well. In case of any changes you will need to redone all this lines again. So my advice before moving to TSD lines and MRK walls editing is better to close all questions with such tricky track layout.Yeah I know there is a risk of modifying the track, but it's been too much fun seeing the track come together so I couldn't help myself but to add the TSDs and MRKs. I am also going to have a busier schedule soon, so I've been trying to maximize the progress before I have to slow down. With the TSDs I am not keying stuff into Notepad anymore, so it should not be a big deal if I need to move entire sections up or down.
I've tested track. To give opinion about track at first bumps need to be smooth out at T4-8. Or are you going to left it as it is now? Also I compared real onbords with track in game and chicane near pit lane looks faster in real life than in game. I feel it need to be wider.
If you want I can try to work on sg file. But on Monday, Tuesday an Wednesday I have online races in the evening. So I'll have time only on Thursday, I think.
