Untimeliness

Fashionably late, plus a month and a week.

Within the below area (hoping that scaling doesn't foul up), a circuit must be designed (obviously, me)with the paddock being internal to the area. Other facilities do not need to be.

Necessary are an Endurance-strecke of at least 8.5 miles and an F1 length course.

For bonus are as many (especially independent) club and/or national courses as possible, a drag strip, and a rallycross course.

Area perimeter length as displayed.

So a pretty simple task to get back into it. There's a little airfield near me called Parham Airfield (Suffolk) that I think would make a great club track. So the brief is simple.

Use the any part of the area inside the perimeter fence, needs a pit lane of course but nothing too complex.

Note those big blue patches are solar panels, remove them if you wish!!!

Where is this perimeter fence of which you speak?

Sorry, I meant perimeter road, which is the white track that creates the shape that looks like a bike saddle!

Yeah lets keep with the airfield genre going but with a difference

This is RAF Broadwell as was during WWII, it closed and was returned to farmland in 1947. The current RAF Brize Norton is only a couple of miles away.

Use your imagination, go back to 1947 and buy the land, and build me a racing circuit using the perimeter road and runways, and the minimal of new tarmac/concrete.

Now resurrect the old circuit into a modern safe raceway, the money is available to add some new sections.

I've added a line down the centre of the runway 1.76kms is 1.1 miles in old money so that should help with scale. The google earth co-ordinates are bottom right if you want to plan it out on that first.

revival?

ok, I have an idea of a challenge. there are 21 circuits on the formula 1 calendar (I am including hockenheim in this) and the challenge is to make a track from different sections of the 21. you don't have to use all of them and you can use multiple sections from the same track, but you have to use minimum of 7 tracks. to help out, here is Daniel Riccardo's example

I've seen these on other forums before...they all eventually died out, but I wanted to get one started again. So this is how it'll work:
  1. A person sets the rules/criteria for their competition. It can be pretty much anything they want, but it has to be set in the real world. Example rules are listed below. A deadline (of a week or so) should also be set.
  2. Competitors then design tracks using GMap-Pedometer or anything else they can post easily to the forum for all to see. Depending on the rules of the competition, more than 1 map may have to be submitted (e.g. if a pit lane also needs to be shown).
  3. The person who set the competition chooses the winner.
  4. The winner then sets their own competition, and will choose the next winner, who will set the next competition and so on.
Example rules/criteria/parameters people can set for their competitions:

  • Location (e.g. "In Australia", "Closest point less than 50km from the centre of Rome" or whatever)
  • Track length (e.g. 4-6km, 3-4km, 10-15km or whatever you like)
  • Track type (e.g. Street circuit, Purpose-built circuit, "hybrid" circuit like Adelaide - part purpose built, part street circuit) - Note that even for full street circuits, a little bit of 'new' road should be allowed as it's sometimes necessary
  • What type of racing the track is intended for (F1, WEC, TT, etc)
  • If buildings can be destroyed or not
  • If road width (or "possible road width, if road was widened) and elevation should be accounted for or not (using Google Street View is helpful here)
  • If run off should be accounted for
  • If a pit lane needs to be designed, and what minimum length it should be (e.g. 150m, 250m...)
It isn't necessary to specify all these parameters, and others can be used too; these are just some examples.

If folks are interested, I'll check back in a day or two to set up the first challenge!
Great idea! I see that the last contest was held quite a long time ago, I suggest reviving it!
