Race Track Design

[Aidan Hogan]

Right shitty old paint here I come
Is this a drift track or time attack track or what ??

[Alan B.]

whatever you want, but should be useable for a bit of sliding.
i've expanded on the one above by adding side roads to make more or less a circle out of the two turns at either end of the straight and the large turn so it could be used for sliding and say banger racing or whatever.

Right I just made 1 and well it looks shite but said I'd throw it up anyway , not bothered putting anymore effort into it
And no it wasn't meant ta look like an animal

ah, it doesnt matter, it's only for a bit of fun.
obviously the more detail the better, if anyone wants to go through the hassle of designing it in sketch up or building a model by all means work away.

i'll stick with paint and CAD.

if ya use circles to lay out your corners and then just draw straight lines between them, thats an easy way to go about it.

CAD isn't working so shitty old paint had to do




I know its not the shape of the field you were at but this is what I came up with.

Site is roughly 5 acres (525x400ft) The grey bit is the outside perimeter to fill up with gravel traps, spectator areas, pits or anything you want.

The area of the track itself is 3 acres and track width ranges from 20ft to 40ft. Main straight is about 300ft or 100m.
Could be used for drift, karting or anything really I suppose. Be alittle short for time-attack

The black track is the main full length track. the other colours are alternative tracks that can be opened from moving barriers or tyres around the place.
Light green bits are just plain old reliable grass

i decided on a few different lay outs that all needed different plots of land and came up with this when they are not overlapping eachother
