I like how a combination of tracks can be used at anyone time - except the international of course.

Though I don't like how the drift bowl will be part of the international track...........

Drifting by nature, tends to ruin the surface, especially when they drag all the dirt onto the track. Else I like.

That is one of the nicest, most balanced and ingenious layouts of any track...

Would've like to have seen a tighter last corner, aside from that though, looks really technical, and the long main and back straights allow for great passing spots! smile.gif

Actually, to me, it looks overly tight with only one potential overtaking place. Loads of mickey mouse stuff & only one even remotely high speed corner in sight. down.gif To be a good circuit it needs a couple things - namely elevation change combined with high speed turns.

On the upside it looks to have flexible layouts. Does anyone see the resemblance of the National Track to AIR? They have packed alot of tarmac into a small space - maybe too much?

Hopefully there will be something in it for the paying spectator, not just the bloody corporates.

So please keep this sort of thing away from Wanneroo.

yeah I'm a bit of a sceptic too. and it's as shame where we once had a nice, fast, open turn 1 we'll now have a hairpin instead. d'oh.

there are a lot of positives though. smile.gif and it does make good use of the space.

my only other gripe is the drift track should be seperate from the main circuit and they should build another, BIG skid pan and actually let clubs use it for khana events and even drift practice etc.

It looks like a challenging layout and the clockwise direction will certainly make a difference,
but I would still like to see a completely new track somewhere to replace Oran Park. cool.gif
