Maybe if you go into setting and change graphics to "Compatibility Mode" and restart the game it might work. I've had to do that with some older tracks.

I tried a few different things with my graphics to see if your theory was right, but I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the terrain updates that have been rolling out. I didn't nail down a specific snapshot but after returning to the 1.13 update the decals showed up again.

Thanks. It's nice to see someone post the solution instead of being left wondering what it was. I haven't tried older tracks in a long time. I think I went through and cleaned out all the tracks except for the mandatory minimums for the online servers.

I had a look at it and it doesn't actually use decals aside from the finish line. It uses a hand drawn shading file to color the track, which the game ignores when using shaders. If you wanted to get it working on new versions of the game you could probably convert the shading.ppm file to a decal.
