- Toyota GR Supra Racing Concept ’18 (Gr.3)
- Dragon Trail – Gardens’ (Reverse: ‘Gardens II’)
This is another version of the Dragon Trail racetrack, tucked between by the azure blue Adriatic Sea and lush Croatian countryside. Its name is taken from the green olive fields that looks down upon the course. The pit facility has a rather local feel to it, and the layout is more technical than the Seaside version.
