Ginger Speedway - A challenge

Hello fellow track designers!

Below, you find a picture of a ginger.

Now please design a track that is based on parts or maybe even the whole blot shape of that ginger, and then post it in this thread. Feel free to cut away pieces of ginger from the main lump, as you would do if you were in the kitchen.

I've tried myself to come up with an example of one possible Ginger Speedway.
Here it is:

To give you an idea of the scale, the straight in my design is meant to be around as long as the main straight of Fuji Speedway. But that doesn't mean anything for the scale of your designs. You can zoom in or zoom out, just as you feel like.
I'm not sure whether my design should run anticlockwise or vice versa, but I'm very well aware that it might be considered to be a bit far on the twisty side. Still, in combination with the long highspeed section centered around the straight, this should make it a circuit, on which to find a good car setup wouldn't be that easy.


Have a nice challenge and happy new year!
