Links for Download: The Tracks of LDC2008
At this point we want to say "THANK YOU VERY MUCH" for the great visualization work done by Atlogis!
Through their "artwork" we were able to see all the Racetracks in nearly Live visualization each evening before the Stage starts the next Day. Running the movie every evening for up to 1 hour gave all competitors the chance, to check the upcoming Stage and get a clear picture of what is to be expected next Day.
Thank you Very much, specially to Kai Pieper from Atlogis for this wonderful sponsoring!
