Houston Reliant Park 2007

Based on:
Houston Reliant Park 2007 1.10 for rFactor
By: Matt Thompson and Friends*

Grand Prix of Houston, featured a fast curving section around the perimeter of the famous Astrodome, as well as a series of medium and slow speed corners. Laid out on the asphalt surface of the parking lot, it was quite a fast and frenetic layout, if not a little bumpy.

Great to see you're still giving this track some attention and updates. I love driving it in an Indycar.

The only thing that bugs me, and probably only me because I live in Houston and attended a race at this location, is the repeating skyline. Houston is huge, and very spread out. I'm not sure if the downtown skyline is even visible from there. I think it might even be at a lower elevation than Reliant park. You might see some of the nearby medical center buildings, and Williams tower to the west.

Maybe use Google Earth, go to street view at Reliant Park, and look around.

Just a detail that would make this AC mod more of an updated over the old GTR2, etc. versions.
