This old chestnut used to appear on slow news days in the Auto Fiction news office back in the eighties.
The purpose back then was to allow for more race meetings because the locals would not be inconvenienced by designing the proposed circuit so only a small part on the existing circuit would be used.
Most of the designs back then used Murray's Corner, Pit Straight and Hell Corner with the new part of the circuit starting halfway up Mountain Straight and rejoining the existing circuit on Conrod Straight.
