teh blimp follows the track, cant you just place the track outside the dome?

Im not 100% sure on this but I think the latest Fixmore.pod removes the blimp, I know it removes the train horn but not sure about the blimp.

You have a few options.

Like Slayer says, set the courses inside the arena, then, when you're done, move the main course outside. That way you can have the benefit of race cam and blimp cam but without the blimp inside.

You can also make a small invisible model and give it the same name as the blimp (goody.bin, I think) and ask people to mount your track above the startup.pod.

Ask racers to use sparse or normal graphic level in the game, instead of complex.

I'm not sure on this one but I think the blimp only works for clear weather. So... set a weather mask that includes everything except clear - rain and snow indoors probably isn't needed either.

Hope that helps.
