Description	: Tocancipa is the sole permanent racing circuit in Colombia. Built in 1982 by "Clube Los Tortugas" (The Turtles Club) to replace the previous Ricardo Meja Autodrome in Bogot (closed permanently in 1980), in the first years Tocancip was a short 2 kms (1.25 mile) permanent clockwise circuit, just for club racing and the Colombian motorsport. In August 1986 Tocancip held a round of that year's South American Formula 2 Championship, with several Argentine and Brazilian drivers in the grid. In early 1990 Tocancip was expanded to 2.7 kms (1.7 mile), after the construction of a "oval" sector. Since than the full and short circuits is used in both directions. The anticlockwise circuit is interesting for a sequence of fast turns after straights, including the "oval" sector, the double right-hander "Braves' Turn" (Curva de los Valientes), and a fast esse. For almost 40 years, Tocancip is the centerpiece of Colombian motorsport, and its most important annual race is the "Bogot 6 hours", for touring cars.

IMPORTANT (I)	: This GP2 circuit has two versions: anticlockwise and clockwise. Both has the same track lenght, 1.7 mile (2.72 kms)
IMPORTANT (II)	: Another Colombian circuit has a good version for GP2: The Bogot circuit (Autdromo Ricardo Meja), which had 2.44 miles (3.9 kms), and was active from 1971 to 1980.

* Installation *

1.
Please, extract the folder "TOCANCIP" (and the JAM files in it) in your ..GP2/Gamejams directory.

2.
Extract Tocancipa (anticlockwise)_Colombia_2012.dat or Tocancipa (clockwise)_Colombia_2012.dat to your ..GP2/circuits directory, and rename it as F1ct06, F1ct10 or any other (I developed the anticlockwise track in slot 06, and the clockwise track in slot 10, but the track probably works well in other slots)
