I don't think ORR2 Arena is a good choice for our 1st intro into ORR2! Very technical track with several 1 car wide bottlenecks and jumps, that if not taken just right, you'll end up over the barriers and race over.
Also one very difficult triple jump into a 1 car wide turn.

I just feel this will be way too difficult for 1st time stadium truck racers and could turn many off right at the start.

Please consider one of the more open tracks like Crandon (either version), Chulla Vista, Outback Valley or even Trophy Stadium as a last choice.

These things can be a terrific drive, but not if you're new to these and on a very difficult track.

Lets hear some input on this, maybe I'm all wet on this one, but just want to make sure this is a successful series!

Thanks T&T for giving us these great dirt series at R2P...

It's the best! : )

I agree with Dan. Three or four wide over jumps will be crowd pleasers and driver getters.

When i go to the Sim Racing, Calendar, i do not see a category section for the trucks and buggies. Or were they under Open Wheel..since that’s the way they finish.. LOL
