Description
Welcome to Meadowdale Raceways, later known as Meadowdale International Raceway. This track was in operation from between 1958 to 1969 and with this conversion I've tried to capture how it looked early in it's life in the late 50s and early 60s. It features a large banked corner called the Monza Wall, some huge elevation changes, and lots of flowing corners. This track was built on the land of a farm outside of the Chicago suburbs.<br>

The original track mod was created by <a href="https://www.overtake.gg/members/550411/" class="username" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" data-user-id="550411" data-username="@Dave Thayer">@Dave Thayer</a> for NASCAR Racing 2003, then converted to rFactor by <a href="https://www.overtake.gg/members/6256/" class="username" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" data-user-id="6256" data-username="@philrob">@philrob</a>. I have permission to post my rework/conversion of this track here from both <a href="https://www.overtake.gg/members/550411/" class="username" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" data-user-id="550411" data-username="@Dave Thayer">@Dave Thayer</a> and <a href="https://www.overtake.gg/members/6256/" class="username" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" data-user-id="6256" data-username="@philrob">@philrob</a>.<br>
