Hello! :D
I was inspired by Jontsuba's idea about Iceland, and I have an idea to make the same Grand-Prix in Estonia, as ATM Estonian map has a lap, which we can take a challenge to drive around Estonia!
So, here is "EST Truck Grand-Prix"'s route. Start/Finish is in Tallinn (a crossroad, when starts "N2") Hope, you like it.

Yes, and I tried this challenge, and and I have driven this lap in 4h 35'! (Start 13:40; Reached the finish in 18:15)
It is really possible to drive around Estonia in ~ 5 hours in real life?! I think, no. :lol:
Route's lenght is: ~560 km ;)
I should say, that this Grand-Prix is much easier, than Icelandic one. ;) You can even play with enabled fatique. (I have disabled only traffic and police during Grand-Prix)

Some facts:
♦ 14:40 I have reached Jõhvi (Yes, in 1 hour! :shock: )
♦ 15:38 I have reached Tartu
♦ Have crashed my truck twice (in Tõrva and Tallinn), due of sharp turn and sidewalk. :D

OK, so... Who wants to accept this challenge?
Yes, and this Grand-Prix I also organized just for fun. ;)

I'm guessing you drove with "a bit" more than 90km/h :lol:
Will try this later, interesting concept :)

~160 km/h! :D
Anyways Narva is absent in ETS2 map ATM, so why not to drive on N1/E20 and N3? :lol:

What would you say about the Ljubljana short circuit? xD

Some say, I'm addicted to ETS2. But then I say. No, it's ProMods, it's a way of life.

Actually, if this keeps going, we could make a page with all the challenges we come up with. I already thought whether there may be other suitable circuits and I'm glad Vladzz-G did it. And Volley says about Ljubljana but we could add London, Paris, Berlin... Or even an alpine circuit!

By the way, I'll try your idea to discover those roads :lol:

I started at 10:00
I finished at 16:19
for a total time of 6:19
also, that last stretch from Parnu to the finish is where a lot of time can be made or lost, because you can go flat out, but there's a very large risk/reward doing that, i managed to make until just the second to last corner before things went spectacularly wrong at 171 km/h. and somehow only did 9% damage rolling hard

Ok, I tried iy myself yesterday and made it in 4h 35' too! (Start at 14:00, arrived at 18:35) It went quicker than I thought, even though MAN TGX isn't as quick as I thought (max. speed 158 km/h). Next time I try a challenge, I'll try to record and upload it.
