no but that's why you got to make your own race track.

Using a "ready-to-use" race track is not recomended because sometimes it's purpose is not 3D Rad. What's the problem? The physics may contain backfases that will cause problems exporting the model.

I don't create very quality race tracks because I use SketchUp and I don't have much possibilities to create something really quality. But don't worry! Try to make it by yourself and you will gain some experience, maybe. You can use Blender or 3DS max to create something reallistic, but they are very complex programs for me.
If we don't give up we can achieve the unthinkable!

actually sketch up can also be used to make quality race tracks but it takes time to learn.There are many tutorials on YouTube for that.if you are having a backface problem there is a topic named"graphics problem"in the technical discussion here is the link.

and the tracks I make aren't recommended for low-end computers.

Well i don't have lots of experience with sketchup or 3ds max.  I tried blender once and I had no idea what all the buttons did so i gave up after like a month.  Anyway, I've found that tf3dm.com and turbosquid.com are great websites for free models.  When i typed race track in the search bars, each model cost over 50 bucks.  Then if i used sketchup's 3d warehouse, all their models kinda stink because they are made by noobs like me.  I was just wondering if there were any free models of race tracks anywhere because i think i've searched every single 3d model website there is.  Thanks for the advise though.   :-\  ;D

Well... guy, Isn't be better if you try to make them by yourself? I've been fightnig that problem also and I know it's hard. I searched the 3D Warehouse and there is nothing! Just very simple tracks! And also I will repeat - "The models may be not designed for 3DRad or even 3D games. The problem will come if the faces and backfaces are messed up. When you export it to 3D Rad that can cause errors of the type: car at high speed if collide to crush in the track. Also they can be verry complex - more than 10000 faces. That can cause slowdown on the runtime and the loading time"

If you see my first tracks... ... LOL. Now they are better because I've been not giving up all the time. Follow me, boy. "Make a step in the life!" Try to make something authorized! And don't be humilated. Be stimulated from me!!!
