    I have long thought about what locations the developers used when designing the stock maps. I want to know this because I have plans to eventually make a skin pack for these locations (Utah, ECUSA and eventually WCUSA) Thanks you all for your input!

    East Coast: Coastal Maine (I've been there, looks about the same, and EC uses maine plates)
    Utah: Somewhere in the desert in utah, near Moab (Signs reference Moab)
    West Coast: SF and some other californian cities
    ETK: Somewhere in germany
    Hirochi: Maine, uses a lot of the same objects as EC, and uses maine plates
    JRI: Japan and Hawaii

    JRI feels more like somewhere along the Philippines or the Far East to me, ETK testing site i think is Berlin or something.

    That is what I thought. I was planning on doing things like a Utah DOT skin, and a Texas department of corrections van. Thank you.

    A bit, but there are the "Japanese Bunker" props, and Hawaii plates? I'm confused.

    The Japan bunkers make sense, considering in WW2, the Philippines was invaded by Japanese people but the Hawaii plates are very confusing though.

    yeah, that would be better, or maybe a combination of these (third one is Eureka CA, for the redwoods!)

    No, I just thought some realistic and prototypical vehicle skins would be cool

    Italy is probably based off of Japan, but I'm not sure. The East Coast USA is based in California, I know that.

    I agree with @Pissh. Have you ever seen Subic? JRI looks kinda like that place.

    Cliff: Texas
    Derby Arenas: Texas
    ETK Driver Experience Center: Germany
    East Coast, USA: Maine, as the default license plates are from Maine. Also, there was some "Rally Maine" writing in one of the Quickplay rally races.
    Gridmap: Virtual Reality
    Hirochi Raceway: Maine, most likely a local track to residents in East Coast USA.
    Industrial Site: Texas
    Jungle Rock Island: Hawaii
