San Francisco
This track is laid out among the streets of San Francisco. It is 3.28 miles long and runs clockwise. The start/finish line is on The Embarcadero. The pits would be located on The Embarcadero in between the two S-bends on both sides of the start/finish straight. The track may or may not be possible, due to part of the track running along San Francisco's famous hilly roads (something like this: https://secure.reservexl.net/wwwimg/...urs/7214-3.jpg).
It would be cool to see cars trying to traverse the hills without catching air and destroying their suspensions and body work from the rough landings. http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=1881086 |

Looks good, and and interesting concept, but not very practical. (Would be good for the fans).

That's where I got it from. I wanted to see if anyone would pick up on it.

I actually managed to wreck my car in the GRID demo on the first jump, so even in the game its unrealistic
