I have been working on this track on and off for the last two years. It started off as a challenge to myself to see if I could find some real roads somewhere in the world that could give me the same buzz and excitement that the Nordschleife does. I searched through maps for several months, trying out various loops of roads that might work, when I finally stumbled across this 26km loop of real roads set in the French countryside of the Parc Naturel Régional du Morvan.<br>

Initially I had no plans to ever release it, thinking it would be just a private project for myself. I used it in AC for quite a few months just as a simple strip of tarmac with a grass verge either side. Knowing how much time and effort went into my Feldbergring (12km) and Deutschlandring (10km) tracks, I never really entertained the idea of fleshing out this seed of an idea into a fully formed 26km long project.<br>
<br>
After sending copies to a few friends, I was finally convinced that this track might actually be worth doing properly. I had been using it for about 18 months by this point, with around 20,000km of 'testing' under my belt. Deutschlandring was finished and released; I had no other excuses, so in May 2019 I started work on 'phase 2' of Fonteny and tried to turn this simple ribbon of tarmac and grass into a real, living environment.<br>
<br>
After 6 months of hard work, and after adding 100,000 trees, 1000 buildings, 200 vehicles, numerous types of grass, ferns, shrubs, bushes, flowers, people, horses and cows, it is finally complete - or, as complete as it is going to be.<br>

It is set up with 40 grid slots for Race Day, 60 spawn points for Track Day layout (multiplayer only), 2 sets of cameras and an overlay with the section names to help memorising its 83 bends.<br>
<br>
To install, just place the 'fonteny' folder from the .ZIP into your 'tracks' folder in your AC directory.<br>
<br>
There is a PDF track guide inside the track folder, with a brief description of each section of the track, how it got its name, and a few tips on driving the circuit.<br>
<br>
A big thank you to those members who helped with testing, and thanks to the AC community for its continued support of mods <br>
