Untitled Track, needs a name
Ok, this track runs clockwise with the pits along the top straight, the first two corners are a shard downhill right - left before blasting up hill through a very long, but fast right hander. Then the drivers approach a kink, with the apex on a crest of a hill, the then continue right bringing them to a tight right handed handed hairpin. After this the drivers head downhill through a series of medium speed corners, they then approach a right hander, dropping down to about 90mph, then this gets repeated but this time with a left hander. This then brings them very gradually uphill towards a left hander which is banked and can be taken flat if the car is working well, continuing uphill the drivers hit a gentle right sweeper, before braking slightly for a left-left section. After this, the drivers hit a very steep dip, dipping all the way until the braking point of this left hand hairpin. They accelerate away onto a relatively quick section sweeping right, then onto a left hander which will punish drivers if they get it wrong, as the corner has bad camber on the exit, which will suck them into the gravel if they get it wrong. The cars head uphill towrds a slow right hander which leads into a medium speed esses section. After this, they drivers get right on the gas for the long straight which leads into a hawthorns bend style corner,which opens up to another long straight, the drivers the hit an relatively open hairpin. Again, they contine on to another fast section, witha flat out left ahead, the track gets bumpy on the exit. Continuing on towards a left right left section, and another hairpin, the track begins to ascend towards the highest point on the circuit,the tight esses which lead back out on towards the start/finish straight. So yeah, that was my first attempt at a track. |

What sort of a lap length did you envision do you think. It would really help to know so we have a better idea on perspective.
Talon Raceway perhaps. Those two sections coming down on either side kind of look like claws or something. |

The first thing that came to mind: Amoeba Raceway.

Actually, I'd say that Brooklans had the greatest resemblance to the outline of a single-cell lifeform.
