Check this ....

pirenzo · 25 May 2004, 19:34 (Ref:982917)

Yeah, saw that in Autosport a few weeks ago. What were they thinking with that chicane on the left?!?!

Rest is quite good though IMO.

Chaynes321 · 25 May 2004, 19:36 (Ref:982922)

yer, the kink before the chicane is Ludacris!!

pirenzo · 25 May 2004, 19:37 (Ref:982927)

well, i was thinking the chicane in general was awful, but yeah. That's not gonna improve overtaking or safety with that kind of braking zone...

Chaynes321 · 25 May 2004, 19:56 (Ref:982956)

guys im desperate for edits on my track on page 386

Chaynes321 · 25 May 2004, 19:58 (Ref:982962)

and yes T_R, was coincidance

shiny side up! · 25 May 2004, 20:02 (Ref:982966)

Chaynes, I think you would have to be on the brakes in T3 for T4 in a heavy formula, so you accomplished that goal. Your track has a good overtaking spot, and potentially a couple more as well...

Was this track in Autosport? Where is it situated then?

Flaming_Wuzzle · 25 May 2004, 21:25 (Ref:983051)

I'm thinking that'll be a revamp of Valencia (I think..could be Jarama, I'm not entirely familiar with Spanish circuits)

Lustigson · 25 May 2004, 21:29 (Ref:983057)

You're right, it IS Valencia. The proposal in itself is not bad, but the current Valencia circuit is much more balanced than the new one.

And the chicane after the first corner is hideous.

Lustigson · 25 May 2004, 21:43 (Ref:983087)

What about this for an alternative? It makes use of (unused?) parts of tarmac that is already there.

pirenzo · 25 May 2004, 21:55 (Ref:983101)

Not bad

Lustigson · 25 May 2004, 22:02 (Ref:983113)

Thanks. I saw a couple of spots I could improve, but I'm quite happy with this quick sketch.

Flaming_Wuzzle · 25 May 2004, 23:53 (Ref:983213)

Actually, I'm fine with how it is now, there's no need to go change it..I'd be fine with a minor corner alteration, but I don't like these TR-esque hackjobs..

the_royksopp · 26 May 2004, 10:38 (Ref:983651)

hey?

.

Looks nice, Lustig. But i'd tighten the final corner.

f1freak · 26 May 2004, 11:16 (Ref:983705)

the proposed 2005 Valencia is ****!!!...
Lustigson's version is not good, ITS AWESOME!!!... great job mate

...

Lustigson · 27 May 2004, 17:35 (Ref:985309)

I made some changes to my Valencia proposal. Tell me what you think.

Lustigson · 27 May 2004, 17:37 (Ref:985311)

Funny thing is, by the way, that most of the tarmac on my proposal is already there. I just used in a different way/direction.

pirenzo · 27 May 2004, 19:38 (Ref:985396)

How about this for a quote guys?

Quote:

The practicing had just begun. Away beyond the woods we heard the approaching scream of a well-tuned E.R.A. and down the winding slope towards us came Raymond Mays. He changed down, braked, skirted round the Hairpin and was gone.

"There's the winner," remarked one of my friends. "Knows this course backwards."

Half a minute later came the deeper note of a 2.9-litre Maserati, and "B. Bira" (Prince Birabongse of Siam, Mays’ nearest rival and a new star in the racing firmament) shot past us, cornering with that precision which marked him as the master he was.

"Or him," said another.

We waited again. Then they came.

Far away in the distance we heard an angry, deep-throated roaring - as someone once remarked, like hungry lions impatient for the arena. A few moments later, Manfred von Brauchitsch, red helmeted, brought a great, silver projectile snaking down the hill, and close behind, his teammate Rudolf Caracciola, then at the height of his great career. The two cars took the hairpin, von Brauchitsch almost sideways, and rocketed away out of sight with long plumes of rubber smoke trailing from their huge rear tyres, in a deafening crash of sound.

The startled Pressmen gazed at each other, awe-struck.

"Strewth," gasped one of them, "so that's what they're like!"

And that was what they were like.

Really eery.

ANYway, back to topic, yeah, i prefer that Lustig.

shiny side up! · 27 May 2004, 20:19 (Ref:985428)

Here is a challenge site...

Rules:
-Stay above the red line
-Course will be temporary... only used for 2 big events per year
-You can use any existing roads you like
-Cannot destroy lakes
-The lower left and upper right areas of the map are about 20m higher than the water level (gives you an idea of the topography)

Have at it...

pirenzo · 27 May 2004, 20:26 (Ref:985435)

Got a bigger map?

Tinik · 27 May 2004, 20:34 (Ref:985444)

I like your edit of Valencia, Lustig!

pirenzo · 27 May 2004, 21:00 (Ref:985461)

My go

A think it's a bit on the long side...

Flaming_Wuzzle · 27 May 2004, 22:30 (Ref:985547)

Here's mine..Goes anti-clockwise and uses only roads except a few spots. Pit lane is on the inside.
