NJMP Thunderbolt to get upgrades / new layouts

Just for you NYG -- looks like a couple new higher-speed layouts being considered that modify the course near the Octopus, along with some other tweaks (bigger runoff area for T1, re-curbing)

You're the 4th person who sent me that.

I guess I'm very outspoken on how much I dislike Thunderbolt huh?

Those new layouts look great, both look like they will flow really well. The octopus has always been the weakest part of Tbolt and a real front left tire shredder. Glad to hear they are fixing the curbing, I bent a wheel on the inside of octopus once on the raised lip and was not best pleased.

How can we dislike Tbolt when that's where we met?

Seriously... get your butt down here next season, come drive with MoE. I've already started shelling out the $$ (Bimmerworld's Fall sale is now active) to get the CS ready to go

I think I've come to terms with the fact that I need a track only car.
