Rain
We were going to make this a wet weather challenge, but wet weather requires paid mods. Please let us know if you're happy for that. We will write up a guide for this if we have a wet challenge.

Discovered an official Fun Cup car mod for AC. That mixed with a classic British or BeNeLux track such as Brands or Zandvoort would make a nice challenge.
I'll be posting the next challenge tomorrow, reckon you should post that in there too. Indy or GP layout at Brands?
GP has more track to it, so whynot that.
Formula Hybrid 2018 at Suzuka
Both are free mods. I had a quick play with this the other night and it felt amazing!
How about this but with a GT3 or GT4 car? Many sims have this track so we're not stuck with a sketchy stolen track. Also to have a break from openwheelers.
Seems a bit harsh to call a converted track sketchy by default.
Almost no mod is going to be made by hand when laser scanned track versions from reputable companies exist. In this case it happens to be converted from a track made by the same base company in the first place.
They also didn’t pass it off as their own and were forthcoming that it was from ACC.
I've had this discussion with people who worked on content for ACC and the takeaway was that is def not appreciated by the creators or company. They accept that rips and converts is inevitable, so it is up to each individual to consider the source and what they are morally okay with. As game artist myself I wouldn't appreciate my own work to be used outside of the intended context, even if the source was clear.
Either way, that is why I suggested a common car and track combo that can be done without mods in other sims. I don't care what others choose to do, now that I've made my stance clear.
