Nice track! How did you get the height changes data? It looks very good... =D>

Don't you think about making a "no-chicane" version?

Through Google Earth. It has a Height measure tool in it. It's in meters, it shows an height
altitude from sea level. Took me a while to understand how it works, but it works fine. It's not
very precise, but with some fiddling around, it came out this way... [-o<


Mmmmh, nice idea. :-k Maybe someday... together with the update maybe.... :-$

I'm already busy with a new Gp2-Style track. It's Somewhere in Asia, in a mountain environment. (So lots of height changes, about 50 meters.... :shock: )

Done the design, cc-line, and heights already.... Next is scenery. Which is very difficult because of the rocky (mountains) environment.

But first I have a removal (about 80 km's) in planning at the end of this week. Which also includes that I’m changing from Internet-provider. So I can't guarantee it will go as smoothly as I hope. So maybe I will be Internet dead for 1 or 2 weeks... :(

We will see how it goes... :P

Yeah indeed. Only the thing is that the heights where not correct as i said, the track doesn't has 50 meters of difference, but only 30 meters. I've made a mistake calculating the height differences from Google Earth. (Miles and Meters.... :twisted: ). So that's why: All heights need to be 30 to 40% off, so it's not that rollercoaster like anymore....

I send a update of the Chimay Street Circuit to AAS. With new updated heights and some small bug fixes. Don't worry, the old 'rollercoaster' edition (...as i call it...) is still included.... \:D/

Some years ago when I started the 1950 season I made some major changes to the Silverstone 1973 track by Peter L Kessler and Yunus Patel. The track itself is still the same with original layout, but I changed all adverts, fences and things like that to get more 50ies looking style. You know - straw balls, wooden planks ect. Im not sure if I did it correctly - I just have used my imagination :-k
Later I discovered some pictures from British GP of those days and noticed some differences :roll:
Do you have interest to see it?
