[pirenzo]

Here it is guys.
I'm gonna make a bigger version and do a little write-up of the track so we can send it to Conrad for fantasytracks too.

Anyway,

Lovely job P!!!

Well done all of us, 5000 posts

Wooooooooooooooo

[the_royksopp]

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!

Now, what are we gonna do for the 10000 posts mark .

This is a massive thread, the longest on 10/10ths, and probably one of the longest ever in the international F1-community online.

It's been existing for more than 1½ years now. Many people have been here, many people came, many went, but i think we, who are here at this day, should congratulate eachother, both with this awesome track, and with this thread.

Forgot to say, great job P!

Though it could be a bit larger?

[Duffacus]

He's gona make a bigger version - he said in his post

[pirenzo]

yeah, i'll bump is up to 500 pixels, and take a bit out of the scenery so that the track fills more of the space.

[the_royksopp]

ok

[the_royksopp]

This has probably been the busiest day ever on this thread!

[Lustigson]

5000+ posts! Thumbs up! :-D

And a marvelous track, guys! Very good!

[Duffacus]

t_r, you're probably right!

[Lustigson]

Can't wait for the large(r) version!

[Flaming_Wuzzle]

Well that sucked, I slept through the rest of the process..

[Flaming_Wuzzle]

Ok, I said that I was waiting to release a circuit, so here it is.

I haven't come up with a name yet, but I'm planning to send the larger version to Conrad.

All circuits go clockwise except the external, which goes anticlockwise.

[the_royksopp]

Boring.

Fast nevertheless .

[Lustigson]

Here's another track of mine. I drew it up during a couple of meetings last week at work. I named it after the first Formula 1 World Champion; it's called the Autodromo Emilio Giuseppe 'Nino' Farina.

You'll find a larger version here and a blank version here. Tell me what you think!

[pirenzo]

not so keen on that Lustig. A bit ordinary...
FW, love that one!

[Flaming_Wuzzle]

Thanks, P

[Duffacus]

Ok time for my latest one! Any opinions are welcome. In this design I tried to get a blend of all the different types of corners and mix it into one track and this is what I came up with.

[Flaming_Wuzzle]

I actually like that one a lot. Perhaps just loosen T4 (or T5, depending on whether you see that left fade after 3 as a turn or not) and make the pit lane longer.

[pirenzo]

i like it too, but my only criticism would be that it's not got (m)any passing spots, and is a bit long. Also you never seem to leave much space for your pit lane:confused:

[Duffacus]

lol it's just the way my tracks seem to work out.

I'd say there is a few overtaking spots and some more for the braver drivers but I suppose if you tweek a few of the corners you could get a few more over taking spots.

[pirenzo]

btw, i sent AMA to Conrad.

[Duffacus]

Ok guys, different pits, slightly shorter track, tweeks to a few of the corners.

Better??? Worse??? Or would you use a combination of the two???

[Flaming_Wuzzle]

This would be fine.

(Note: It goes the other direction now.)

[pirenzo]

that'll do FW, still kept it a good track, and you've got a couple of strong passing spots in there...
