[QUOTE=ScotsBrutesFan;3238417]You asked about putting ovals around 2 deisgns this month.
The first dated April 2nd, would work with a Pocono shaped oval ... 3.52km or 2.2 miles
Drawn in 2D only with oval massively wide but to scale giving correct sizes.

Thank you for turning this into an oval infield circuit. I'd say it's the best roval circuit I have ever seen, because it's been a circuit with great flow in the first place. Flow is usually one of the main issues with roval infield circuits. Not this one. I feel kind of lucky to have been an instigator of sorts for the "perimeter circuit" because this track would easily win you a "Roval of the Year" award if there was such a one on MyTracks.
Looking at how this one developed, I can only conclude that the design process for a great roval must start with coming up with a great road course first, like you did, and in the 2nd step, the oval is built around that. Here's hoping the real-life track designers will learn from this theoretical study as well.
The main difference of your track to Pocono is probably that Turn 2 is not 90 degrees but bigger. Does it offer lanes for 2-wide racing? I hope so, because that would make it a unique oval even.

This second one dated April 22nd would probably need a Rockingham(UK) style oval which isn't really an oval at all, as it has 4 separate banked corners linked by 4 straights

I guess that idea was only inspired by this first circuit above. I don't know if a Rockingham(UK) shaped superspeedway would be any good. What do you think?
