Description
**********
* ver 1.11 *
**********
Fixed GMT loading error's for both DCC_Crandon and Forest County Tracks


***********
* Version 1.1
***********

Added tree collision - on all tracks
Made Dust a lot more manageable ... on all tracks.
added the short course - AI awesome = rolling starts possible.

(note* you need to have the AI learn the track for the vehicle you want to race- for the AI to be awesome
- I tested AI in Vorra Mod.)

First released Feb 21, 2009 - This is one of my favorite obsessions of all Dirt tracks. Bark River is a close 2nd ....

When I first started making tracks back in the days of S.O.D.A off-road Racing (Sierra/Papyrus) with the included 'track editor', back in 1997, I must have made 15 versions of this track in attempts to get it as close as possible with that prehistoric editor.

Crandon has went through a lot of changes, and lost some of its luster from the early days. Basically - removing the TEETH from the toughest track in the world of Off-Road Racing.

The original 1.75 mile layout was reduced to 1.5 miles (1999?) and to it's current 1.25 mile configuration in 2002.

This also brought on toning down some of the jumps and increasing the banking, and adding safety barriers to help keep from finding yourself in "the Pond".

I took some liberties and attempted to restore some of the lore of the track, to the days of Jack Flannery wins - when SODA (Short-course Off-road Drivers Association) and CORR (Championship Off Road Racing) reined supreme.

I will not proclaim it to be 100% accurate for the time period as not much reference material is available. I will be relying on my old memories and creativeness to make it live up to its old reputation.

This in no way saying that the WSORR version isn't tough and challenging ...

But, it is my attempt to celebrate 40 years of Crandon Off-Road Raceway

*** DDawg ***

Note: 2 versions of track.
DDC_Crandon is the Landrush Starts and should be for ONLINE use only (AI doesn't like this version)

SPECIAL NOTE: FLAG RULES MUST BE OFF! (or positions 7-11 and other spots unfortunatley get DQ'ed on start) I know the fix but am not prepared to dive into that mount of work to fix ATM.

30 Grid Max but not recommended.
max Garage stalls = 60
max Pit stalls = 20

*******************
Forest County track is more for online and offline ...

max Grid = 60
max Garage stalls = 60
max Pit stalls = 20

This is a REALISTIC Fantasy of what Crandon use to be like in the late ninetys
before they added all those blue walls. The Ponds were in play and many a racer
found them ...

My goal was to try and bring back the beast known as Crandon, as it celebrates
its 40th birthday. I also wanted a dry track environment.

There are 2 tracks, the one is primarilly for online racing and utilizes the
"LandRush" start over the moguls (the AI do not particually this start) and the
other is the non LandRush version and more friendly to those pesky AI.

Thanks to the AvA Racing Crew and GodSmacker for helping shake this track down.

Special thanks to Mad Cowie for giving permission to use a few of the object
from his version of Crandon.

This track is scaled to the Aerial map that is used in the texture Background.

There may be the addition of the 1.5 and 1.25 mile tracks at a later time.

Have Fun and enjoy!
