Never was a fan of night-races (too dark i.m.o), but many tracks get better (lighter) night versions, which is certainly a highlight. The pic's look great.

Wow! I really like what you did to that track.

After comparing your version to the original vanilla night version, the original looks really dull and empty like there are no lights at all.

I am just a liiiiiittle disappointed that you did not light up some office windows with glowing textures like you normally do at your tracks... too many 9-5 jobs there it seems... maybe I was just expenting too much because I had something a little like that in mind:

Thanks! I didn't go for the glowing window approach becuase it would have taken a rather hefty amount of time given the sheer amount of buildings in the track.

Ohh... I understand that it is a lot of work to illuminate all the windows... but since these buildings are primarily office buildings for sure they should be mostly deserted at nighttime. I am fine with that. But you could make SOME windows lit at least beacause of cleaning/maintenance or because someone simply forgot to switch the light out. It would give soooo much more to the atmosphere here ;)
