Oran Park South Circuit
I know the new pits at Oran Park are old news, but with the new pits further towards turn one, it seems now there is no pitlane exit onto the short circuit, anyone know what is going, or when you leave the pits do you have to drive around the grand prix circuit to get back on the track, like it's part of the pit exit.

Dunno...they might be allowed to use the piece of Go-Kart track that turns left off the bridge...

I haven't been there but I have been told that there is a new road from the new pit exit across to near the exit of the bridge. So that the slow cars merge with the fast ones at the exit of turn one making this the worst spot to try and rejoin. Plus the cars that take the escape road at the end of the straight cross the new pit exit (now there is a scairy thought)

I raced there a month ago and Morrie has it right. They have built a new little connection road from the end of pit lane to the exit of the old Torana corner. This is a very narrow and windy road so when you're cruising along, looking over your left shoulder, so you can merge safely onto the racing line at the exit of a fast corner mind you, it's quite easy to run off the narrow ribbon of bitumen.
