    UCP's Race tracks on Google Earth

    Ok, we';re all getting addicted I see.

    So following up from an earlier one I did.

    Nordschleife - 50°21'23.88"N, 6°56'8.72"E

    I reckon it woudl be neat if we could create a complete list of known race tracks.

    up for it ?

    here's another couple then ...

    Silverstone - 52° 5'29.99"N, 1° 1'34.10"W
    Brands hatch - 51°21'30.34"N, 0°15'43.30"E


    EDIT: The file is now done at is here

    I managed to find bathurst ( i think, it says bathurst-orange but i don't think thats right) but couldn't find Mount Panorama. The search function sucks, i can never find anything but BIG capital cities, most places that are named on google earth don't come up in search results

    yeah I've foudn some funnies with it too.
    Also not great at routes either for pan-Europe

    The reason I'd suggesed UCP combined efforts is becaues it's NOT that easy. BUT if you know the local area and circuit it's a dawdle !!

    Goign to the web site of the track may prove worthwhile as often there are links to other mapping systems with lat/long listed

    Will see if I can find that Bahrain track the recent F1 race went on
    hold on....searching

    Not a major track though
    Shame Dubai is so blurry otherwise we could've seen the Dubai Autodrome, ONE of the upcoming tracks in the future!!

    EDIT: Forget it, the whole of Bahrain is more blurry than Dubai

    WOW, I knew it was close to the beach, but not THAT close.

    One of my all time favourite tracks for F1 and on GPL
