Medusaboy, it may just be me, but for some reason your file isn't working once I download it, it would screw up when I would go to unzip it. Could you please try to re-upload this ride or just hold off on doing anything and I'll see if anyone else is having problems or if there's anything I can do to get this to work.

Hey, It seems the only way you can get the "Panther" to work is to download the file and when you get the zip file change the name from "Panther.zip" to "Panther.nltrack". Please go back up and try it this way. Let me know if it works and feel free to rate to let me know what you think. Thanks!
