Searching for Ehra-Lessien track

Post by dammit6000 »

Does anyone know if a track has been made for the secret VW test track in Germany? It is called Ehra-Lessien and features a 9km perfectly flat straight (so straight you can not see the other end due to the earth curvature). It also has banked curves. It is top secret but it can be seen on Google Earth (52.5N,10.5E).

Yes AAS, thats the secret VW test track. It might not be much of a challenge to drive it in GP2 but would be very interesting.
Anyone interested in a track project? [-o<

That would be a hard one... The longest track can be 7,1 km. So, the longest straight on a track like this can be 3 km, only.... So, you will have to scale it down almost 3 to 4 times... And i don't think it's pretty exciting... :?
