Hello, I am looking for a working link to the Rockingham UK oval track, specifically the version where the cars race counterclockwise. I have found links to the .exe file, but I cannot get that version to successfully download into my tracks folder (I think there's some interference with the 'No CD' patch?). Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
 
I'm running the .exe. I get this message:
ErrorMessageNR2003.png

Even when I re-direct the download into a Rockingham track folder and name it appropriately, the track fails to load in-game (the standard 'Cannot Load the Track, Canceling the Weekend' message). I tried running the file with Administrator, I've exported the file to desktop, etc. I'm unsure what is causing this problem? The game works fine otherwise. The problem is just with this one specific track.
 
Look in the track folder see if the fast.cup.sim file is in the folder if not this will give the track can't load message you will need to make sure you have one for the series

Yeah, the file is there. I did find some extra files as I noticed it is trying to merge the .auscar and .cup versions when I extract the track directly to my desktop. Still, I cannot get the track to work even if I do sort the files.
 
So, my first problem is that I am having compatibility issues with NR2003 on my new comp so I can't try and see if the game runs. But already I have figured out one problem. The exe is setup to run when you select the main NASCAR Racing 2003 folder (where the NR2003.exe is), not the tracks folder. While I troubleshoot my compatibility problem, try running the exe in the main game folder and see what it does.
 
No worries. Again, thank you for your help. I tried what you suggested. Although I got a different result I still get an error.

Try to open it like a zip file.
The track it's missing mip files.

Sorry I haven't had much time to work on this. My issue is that the game itself isn't running because I am on a new computer and haven't worked out the graphics compatibility kinks yet to let the game run in Windows 11, but I was able to extract the track without any trouble. I can send you a zip of the track that I have installed, but if it is missing stuff it may not run anyway.
 
Yeah, send me a .zip and I'll let you know if it works. If it does not, oh well, no big deal. Thank you for your help and time.
 
That fixed the issue. The track is now working in-game. Thank you for your help!
