Norwich Grand Prix
Two versions.
First is 1.86mi, second is 1.80mi. Run in a counterclockwise fashion. Based off the city centre streets of Norwich, CT. Could it ever happen? Not a chance, some of the roads aren't wide enough and there's no place to actually put a paddock or stands. However, it's a fun route and the elevation changes are immense. Thanks, Matt. |

I just browsed around a bit in googlemaps. Some places look quite raceble. Might just be done.

Looks interesting.
First impressions are it might be slightly too small. What catagories of racing do you picture this being for? My other tidbid is the turn after Church Street. I don't think there'll be enough run-off there. Apart from that, the track looks a fun layout! Also good to hear of the elevation changes. Would be cool to see a little lap round here. Selby |

I honestly have no idea what would race, haha.
Next time I'm down that way I could get an onboard slow lap... |

It might be a bit too busy for larger, more powerful types of cars to make a race of it on this circuit.
The run-off in the CCW direction I think can work. There would need to be something at the end of pit lane, so the cars from that direction aren't rejoining the track a full-chat, while the guys out on course are coming off of a slower corner. |
