Track menu problems

Hi to all!
I'm a new member of this wonderful forum. Sorry for my bad english, I'm italian!
I'm an old player of F1GP and GP2, with seven world championships on these fantastic simulators, always with my "historical" fictive team, the NewTeam Racing. Always 100% races and Ace opponents (or even faster, via editor). My user name is in fact the name of my alter-ego in GP2, the four-times world champion Jose Fernandez (1994-1995-1996 with F1GP and 1998 with GP2).
After seeing the magnificent "Rush" film of Ron Howard, the flame of racing began to burn again in my heart, so i started again with GP2, after 13 years of hiatus (my last championship was in 2000) and i want to start a new world championship in 2014.
In this great site i have downloaded some great tracks and the 2013 liveries, and with the Steven Young's GP2Edit i managed to update the game to the 2013/2014 years (weight: 690 kg; engines: about 725/740 BHP; points: 25-18-15 etc.).
But after these modifications, the track maps have disappeared. This problem occurs only with a complete export of the modifications with the editor and did not occurs with my old 2000 season package. Why this? How to fix it?
Another question: which is your ideal, 16-races GP2 calendar?
I want to assemble a good racing calendar for this new season and i want to insert the best tracks around. Some fictitious tracks are fantastic, hilarious: Canyon Route, Anchor Bay, Isle Of Palms, but too intricated and pretty undriveable for me (i play GP2 without DOSbox, accordingly with a moderate in-game acceleration of some 10% that makes all very, very difficult). Sudschleife is marvellous, the best track around, but too old-fashion for a 2014 championship. And a nightmare to drive with a 730 BHP and 300 km/h car. I have also tried the Belini Fantasy Track, and the Belini Autodromo is fantastic, but it lacks the history of some real tracks...
I have finally selected some great tracks from the past: Mexico City (1992 version), the old Zolder, along with some modern tracks (Abu Dhabi, La Plata circuit), and some tracks in its old form (the classic Hockenheim). I want to replace Melbourne with the classic Adelaide. Imola post-1994 is okay. I have tried the fantasy Paris street circuit and is great (fantastic accidents in the Champs-Elysées straight!), but is a pretty simple track. I think at the Paul Ricard (with the Mistral straight), Dijon or the classic Rouen for the French GP (no more Magny-Cours!).
Other suggestions?
