Wanted : Karting Track Designer

I am beginning a feasibility study into building a new outdoor karting track in Ireland.
I would request any experienced track designer, who may be interested, to quote for designing the track and all ancillary buildings, site infrastructure, etc. Professionals should just quote, no need to produce a design at this stage.
The track should be to CIK/FIA standards, with a competition track of min 1,000m length and min 8m width, incorporating a second leisure track of at least 600 - 800m.
I have basic outline site drawings below, showing dimensions of the fields on the site.

Sorry, pics come out very small for some reason. Site dimensions are :
254 m across top of picture, 487 m down lhs, 254 m down rhs, 159 m across the bottom. I can email the pics to interested parties.

I know a lad called Ben who used to race Rotax against us then went up to Superkarts - I think his job was track design so I will try and track down his contact details for you.

Yep, that's Ben Wilshire. Good bloke. Met him a month or two back. Fantastic team he's got there at Apex Circuit Design.
