Sonoma 2012 is now available for Heat. 
Track Facts:
The Chute Layout: Length: 1.99 miles, Turns: 10
Location: Sonoma, California USA
Capacity: 102,000
Opened: 1968
Sonoma 2012 is a conversion from NR2003 Sonoma 2012 by T18, and DaveO had obtained permission from T18 to convert the track. I have tried to extend the Heat version, on the great work done in that model by T18.
I will not go into detail about all the additions/changes/rework in the Heat version, but this has taken several months to develop/test. This Chute layout is 1.99 miles, and the Carousel layout/infield (2.52 miles, 12 turns) has been integrated into the model and did not exist in the NR2003 track originally. The Carousel layout portion is from rFactor SearsPoint 1990 by Bud Lucas and obviously has been a challenge to integrate into the model from multiple sim platforms.
The track was modified in 1998, adding the Chute, which bypassed turns 5 and 6 (the Carousel), shortening the course to 1.95 miles. In 2001, it was replaced with the 70° turn, 4A bringing the track to its current dimensions of 1.99 miles.
I have tried to take to the Heat version to the next level. If comparing the Heat version to the other original non-Heat Sim tracks, there is a massive amount of changes that should be noticable.
The Carousel layout will be released in the near future for Heat, in a separate release, but portions of that can be seen ingame from this version.
Thanks to:
The original developers of the NR2003/rFactor versions.
DaveO: for setup/GCF, extensive support, testing, encouragement, and detailed feedback during the development.
