Homebush Street Track

Before the NSW State Government disappoved it, the prospect of a street race at Homebush in Sydney was a tantilising idea. Given that V8 Supercars' last attempt at a street circuit (Canberra) failed, I guess the Government was a bit pessimistic about this one.

Anyway, here's what I think it would look like:

Your thoughts?

That's a downgrade from your previous layout. Too many 90-degree turns.

It isn't that hard to combine the 2 so you have some street track & some park. The circuit probably still wouldn't be that long either-about 5.5km possibly?

That's a very good one there. I think it would be even better clockwise.
