CJDJ500 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Brooklyn ePrix, New York City

http://www.motorsport.com/formula-e/...e-race-683407/

I found this article on Motorsport.com, outlining the possibility for a FE race in Brooklyn, NYC, which could "occur as early as season 3".

So I decided to investigate the area and search for any possibilities for a decent layout, if this proposal does go ahead.

Here is what I came up with: https://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=6832064

It's a fairly simple layout, with a clockwise route consisting of 14 turns and a long 0.7mi straight after turn 2. The course also passes several key sites, such as Prospect Park, the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch and the Brooklyn Museum. It may be slightly long for a FE circuit, at 2.275mi (3.661km), but overall I'm pretty impressed with my creation.

Also, for your information, the pit lane will be located further down Washington Street, rejoining at turn 1 on Empire Blvd.

Hope you like it
