Guys I've made this track for rFactor. The track is a fantasy 60's track, made with Bob's track builder. I would like to have your feedback on this, and help me name the track. Feel free to give me suggestions.

It looks British, so I would call it Colinton, or any British village name for that matter
Good job

The problem I have with BTB is that the track ends up with 70mb... Any of you know Bob's track builder to give me a few tips? Also maybe get me some xpacks. And if you guys want, make some suggestions of anymatter to the track itself...

Looks great, I could never pull something like that off in BTB. If you want to compress, use WinZip/RAR to reduce the filesize (If you have it installed, right click on the track file and click "Add to Archive.RAR"), if that's what you wanted, I'm not sure if you want to compress for the installation to rFactor.

No, I want the export on BTB to be smaller... I see tracks with greater quality and a small file size.

I think packing the textures and objects into MAS files is what you're after...

I Agree with Antoine it does look very 60's English ...
How about Longridge or Aston Park good job so far

Great suggestions. And tks . That thing of the MAS files... I'll have a look and hopfully it will solve that issue. The thing is that I'm planning to add more stuff to the track but was already 70 mb has it is. Maybe one day we could all race it.

70 Mb unpacked isn't a lot. Tall grass is a Mb eater, but is needed to give a nice touch especially on old tracks (or public roads). If you absolutely want to gain some space, you may have a look at that.
