Make your own circuit with corners from different circuits:
My circuit:
We start the lap with the main straight of Fuji Speedway, then we go to Eau Rouge (Spa). There is a small straight and hard braking for Loews (Monaco). Accelarating for 300 metres as we approach The Esses (Suzuka). Then we go for Blanchmont (Spa) which is under a tunnel, small straight again and braking for Parabolica (Monza). Big straight (like Montmelo’s one) and brakes for turns 1-4 of Nurburgring, which is followed by a small straight and turn 8 (Istanbul Park). Then a small straight and the final sector which includes the old 130R (Suzuka) and corners 12-14 of Sepang, and we go across the start finish straight.

Has anyone tried to use accurate measurements to construct circuits, much like what the circuit architects are doing, instead of simply saying short/long straights and slow/fast curves?

#
Alfisti37 said 10 months, 3 weeks ago:

I mean, taking in account of acceleration approximations, cornering radii, track width etc. measurements.

I feel no need to explain my circuit when I can draw it instead:

I could compare the circuit to Bahrain!

This is my ubertrack. It contains 130R, Turn 8, Eau Rouge among other corners

@sam3110
How long is that thing suppose to be? :O

#
sam3110 said 10 months, 2 weeks ago:

That’s the whole point! Choose to drive The Lake Circuit or the South Circuit, or even the whole thing! ;-)

Be prepared to be amazed.

@rob lomas
That thread links to this one. I got caught in a crazy loop

Does anyone know of any simple 3d modelling software I could use to design a circuit? I’m always drawing up designs on my lecture notes when I get bored, but I would love to design a circuit for real, as a little project or something.

#

I would be up all night posting the corners on mine :D

#
I’ve had it said 5 months ago:

@kingshark I’d drive that track, although it looks like it has too many 90-degree corners.

#
Kingshark said 5 months ago:

Looking back at some of my designs several months ago, during the summer break; I have to say, they were woeful.

Here’s a new one though.
