Track design thoughts...

[cunawarit]

We've posted a couple of tracks in another thread and I thought it might be good to create a thread about tracks so that everyone has a chance to give some input...

To recap, a couple of tracks have been suggested for the next couple of meets:

For the 17th:



For the 24th:



Anyway, this is more light hearted. I came up with these two (had a spare hour...) based on real tracks:

Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya





Road America:





I am not suggesting we do these tracks, I'm simply trying to spark some discussion

Tbh they all look good,
Best thing is to try them and see what happens,the one with the straight up the middle usually leads to a few more mishaps with batting cars landing on it as a car hot foots it up it,but it is a nice one to race on though

These look ace mate - problem with recreating F1 circuits is that they often have empty spaces, but these fill the floor quite well. Could you also do Interlagos?

[cunawarit]

I could do

It is all about finding the ones that could fit in the rectangular space easily and using a lil creativity to fill out the space well... I could have done Indianapolis, that was the easy route

[Chris56]

Maybe also look at Moto GP tracks as many of these have a rectangular footprint and have a good tight in-field:

Estoril
Sachsenring
Mugello
Valencia

[cunawarit]

Interlagos...





Might be a lil dangerous at Subida Los Boxes as touring cars leave the track at 50 MPH and go into someone's face Maybe a couple of obstacles to create a chicane before it.

PS: Estoril is probably perfect!

Road America will be this week's track plan.

Nice track, lots of laps...............

I'm quite keen to try Oulu Mirror, if it was good enough for the EFRA European Championships it should be good enough for us on a Friday night
