Hmm... Y'know Mac, I think that'd actually help!
More speed into that hairpin, would be excellent outbraking there.
Construction might be a problem, though... Where you'd put that extension, there's a _big_ uphill rise, and you'd have to cut down an awfull lot of old-growth forest.
Still, I gotta make my own suggestions on this one, being I've got a really emotional attachment to the track. How about this?
Maybe without the chicane right after the pits.
Okay, all joking aside, here's what I'd really like to see: A compromise between the old and the new, taking the best of both.
And yes, this is feasible... Nothing's been built on the old portions of the track, it's just a lot of abandoned tarmac separated from the rest of the circuit by gravel traps and Armco. I'd repave the Dr. Tiroch Kurve at 12 degrees, though, to make it faster and more like the Boschkurve... Which while I _love_ that turn, I wouldn't bring back because I'd rather have the passing zone created by the Gösser Kurve.
