[v4forlife]

2 is silverstone, but i cant really make out the others, 8 i can see, but dont know it...well from that view, lol.

[Vendetta]

Bah, what kind of crappy pictures are those? :D Haha, i think ill try to find the ring now..

[nikimere]

6 = Thruxton
8 = Zandvoort :D

[al heeley]

8=zandy- of course!
2=no way anything close to silverstone.
6=thruxton, well done! Not a good image.

[sinbad]

1 Snetterton
7 is Brands Hatch
(I think) :)
others are too blurry :)

[speedfreak227]

1 looks ike monza but doesn't seem to include the entire track in the picture
2 looks like donnington, i think that's the name, i know the track anyways. it's fun except for the downhill part after turn one.
3 is a garbage picture
4 is a garbage picture
5 is a garbage picture
6 i don't know
7 i'm sure i've played it an a video game, Aida perhaps? doubt it
8 i don't know

here's a google earth file full of tracks

[speedfreak227]

my attachemnt isn't working for some reason. here's one more try......

[nikimere]

2 = donington

[nikimere]

4 = Mondello Park :D

[sinbad]

As a guess I'd say 4 is maybe Mondello Park?

Haha there, I should have refreshed.

Well done Niki, think you're right. :)

[al heeley]

2 is donington, 4 is mondello.:thumb:

[nikimere]

only 3 and 5 left to get then?

[Fordman]

Is 3. Knockhill

[nikimere]

damn it! i recognise 3!!! :Looking_a

[Hyperactive]

Track 8 is in Nascar 2003, me thinks...Sears point ? :D

Lol, found a map of Sears point, not even close :P

[Fordman]

Track 8 is in Nascar 2003, me thinks...Sears point ? :D

We already Guessed Track 8 :razz:

[nikimere]

7 is brands hatch

people should be able to get this one

[nikimere]

5 = Spa??

[nikimere]

7 is brands hatch
Already got that too, just missing 3 and 5 now

[sinbad]

Dunno how it's possible to guess 5, I cannot even see the path of the track :)

[sinbad]

Number 5.....tracks with lakes in the middle...... Mallory Park has one, but no idea really....my guess is Mallory.

[nikimere]

Man number 3 is wreckin my head!! someone put me out of my misery! what is it?

[nikimere]

Is 3. Knockhill
pretty sure 3 isn't knockhill, i thought it was Oulton but i dont think so either.... :scratchch

[sinbad]

3's bloody cadwell I think, love that track too

[Michel 4AGE]

people should be able to get this one

Nürburgring, it is !1

[nikimere]

your right sinny! well done :thumb:

[tristancliffe]

7 is brands hatch

people should be able to get this one

Nurburgring GP (with bit of Nordschleife too).

Can't see 5. Not Spa. Has a parabolica, but isn't monza, so I'll go with Estoril (Portugal). :shrug:

[al heeley]

yes! well done guys, 3 is cadwell, 5 is mallory.

[nikimere]

well done sinbad :)

[TagForce]

So who's posting the next batch?

[Fordman]

I remember on the old BR forums was it Sindad, we had this game also, and well Sinbad was King of the Circuits then. Seen nothing has changed :D

Well then, what is the name of the circuit I posted? :D :xpirate:

[Kryten]

I recognise #1 as the Infineon track from NR2003. :)

[TagForce]

Willow Springs :thumb:


Well then, what is the name of the circuit I posted? :D :xpirate:

Laguna Seca International Raceway :D

EDIT: Actually Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca these days

EDIT2: LOL, quite mean actually... I know Mosport, and it didn't look like that... Was thinking it would be more a sandy color for LSIR though.

[TagForce]

Here's one...
I'll give you a hint, it's somewhere in Europe and was originally supposed to be an oval around a lake...

[al heeley]

Well that grid ref will place it in Scicily, but I don't know the circuit at all!

[TagForce]

Well that grid ref will place it in Scicily, but I don't know the circuit at all!

Aren't that many circuits in Sicily, are there?

It's one of my favorite to see on TV, because there's always huge wrecking going on there.

[GTR_Yuni]

Here's one...
I'll give you a hint, it's somewhere in Europe and was originally supposed to be an oval around a lake...

Enna-Pergusa?

I'm just taking a guess, but I might be right...

[al heeley]

you just gotta love Google Earth. This one is really easy

[TagForce]

Enna-Pergusa?

I'm just taking a guess, but I might be right...

Yessir... Correct :)

[TagForce]

you just gotta love Google Earth. This one is really easy
Suzuka...

(looking for a new one as we speak)

Another easy one:

[al heeley]

that one looks like the spanish f1 circuit, circuit de catalunya, estoril, is it?
[edit]No, it isn't is it? Is it Portugal?

[TagForce]

Which one is it? Catalunya or Estoril (one is in Spain, the other in Portugal)

[al heeley]

must be estorip, portugal, this one's catalunya ;)

[Shotglass]

its estoril

[al heeley]

how about this one?

[TagForce]

Looks familiar... Have to look it up though

[Shotglass]

cant really make out the track but by the shape of that lake id say melbourne

[TagForce]

cant really make out the track but by the shape of that lake id say melbourne

That's it... Albert Park :) (it's a pain not remembering the name)

[TagForce]

Little hint? (or draw out the actual track, cause all I see is vague lines)

[sinbad]

Obviously Croft :)

[TagForce]

LOL... Dammit... Just found it!
Croft indeed.

[TagForce]

This one is not really a race track, but I'll be damned if I don't want Eric to model this one for LFS... Think of all the different tracks this one would give...

BTW, it does exist, and if you name it you score bonuspoints for this game :D

[Hyperactive]

Here is one. The track is not visible, but it shouldn't be too hard...
http://img465.imageshack.us/img465/2410/dontcheatlol8za.th.jpg (http://img465.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dontcheatlol8za.jpg)

Sorry for the image size. And I was forced to cover up something there too :)

[sinbad]

TagForce's is (I think) the Millbrook proving ground and testing facility.

[TagForce]

TagForce's is (I think) the Millbrook proving ground and testing facility.

You are definitely scaring me...
Yes, it is.

(Please, Eric? I would love to see a track that has more than 12 configurations! :nod::schwitz::Looking_a:D)

@thisnameistaken: LMAO, my thoughts exactly!

[sinbad]

Bloody hell, how did you get that?
I recognised the picture :)

Now, about my bonus points......

[TagForce]

I recognised the picture :)

Now, about my bonus points......

Yeah, yeah... You score a whopping 5 points for that one... But you get to find the next trackimage for us.

Gran Turismo's Complex String? ;)

[greenjoker]

Here you go...
Somewhere in Europe...

[Shotglass]

i hope this one will be a bit of a challenge

[96 GTS]

Paul Ricard?

[sil3ntwar]

Paul Ricard?i was thinking that but it doesnt look big enough.

[Forbin]

i hope this one will be a bit of a challenge Jarama.

Knew I'd seen it before, and a quick load of GP500 told me what it was. :D

Here are a few more.

[96 GTS]

Ahhhhh! Crap, I knew it was from GP500, but I don't have it loaded on this computer, fun track though.

[TagForce]

1. Imola
2. Circuit van Drenthe - Assen
3. Valencia
4. Jerez de la Frontera

[sinbad]

Here's 4 more, some easy. I've helped you with one.

[96 GTS]

1 is Mexico City (I think, it's the Mexican GP track in GPL)
3 is Tsukuba

[sinbad]

1 is Mexico City (I think, it's the Mexican GP track in GPL)
3 is Tsukuba

Yep, and Yep.

[Frankmd]

2. Dijon Prenois

4. Bagdad City Track?

[sinbad]

2. Dijon Prenois

4. Bagdad City Track?

2. Yep
4. Hehe, close but you're way off :)

[al heeley]

So which street circuit features roundabouts like pic 4? Is it one of the Canadian Indy tracks, like Vancouver or Ozzy street circuits?

[sinbad]

Is it one of the Canadian Indy tracks, like Vancouver or Ozzy street circuits?
No

[TagForce]

Birmingham?

[Frankmd]

Guess you're right:

2. Brainerd IR.

EDIT: And thanks to the filename: 1. Blackhawk Farms (which admittedly I looked up).

I hope no one has posted this..

I don't think anybody posted a NZ track, no...
I like it's name too... Pukekohe.

[Hyperactive]

Motopark

[Tweaker]

You know, this makes me think about the circuits we have in LFS right now... compared to most real life ones. All of our circuits are not as flat or smooth as some of the fast/popular circuits, plus there is a lot more room around the track than ours... ours all feel very 'enclosed' (eg trees, hills, walls, on all sides). I know it could be for a sense of speed, but looking at some of the most well known circuits around, most have lots of space with grass and sand... not just enclosed by objects. Hard to explain, but if you look at a few photos of these tracks (I've searched around just to see what some of these are like), they all look very classic and fun to drive, even for their simplicity. Some are small, but have some interesting corners WITH hardly any elevation changes. Those kinds of courses I like too, and to me... it seems most UK tracks don't use many hills... including some others in Europe... like Assen.

[Forbin]

Yeah, I love Assen. Just goes to show you don't need elevation changes to make an exciting track.

Although, elevation changes can be very exciting. Corkscrew, Eau Rouge, Flugplatz, etc. :)

[JTbo]

Motopark

Yes, you are right :)

[TagForce]

Assen is not really suited for car racing (even though they use it for national series now)... Most of the turns are banked, and there's a lot of banked 'kinks' that makes cars bottom out really bad. The layout is very cool, though. The trackwidth is very small... Just barely enough to allow cars passing, although the new parts are a bit wider.

We'll have to see what the new track will look like without the 'noordlus'.

[Tweaker]

Here's a course ;)

A cool, not well known course.

EDIT: one more

[speedfreak227]

here's one for ya. i drew in the track layout with wonderful precision. ok, so i suck, but you get the gist of the course.

quote this message in your reply so the answer makes sense rather than just saying, "suzuka" in a lone post. and if anyone quotes this post and THEN says "suzuka" i'll shoot their dog.

Since you are from Canada, and seeing this course attempted in Generally, I think that'd be Vancouver :smileypul

[speedfreak227]

well, several minutes. not too bad. unlike the track which was pretty crappy for passing but was an INCREDIBLE 3 day event, especially with the lower classes of racing below Champ Cars.

A cool, not well known course.

EDIT: one more

I was going to say Portland for the second one, but that isnt correct..

First one looks nice indeed, but not a clue either.

How did you make that screenshot?

[Frankmd]

It isnt a screenshot, I took it from a plane.

Honest.

[Tweaker]

Is the first one Pacific Raceway?
Yeah. Was talking about it on IRC, maybe some of you caught that ;). It is 'Pacific Raceways'... I don't know why... maybe because it is a drag strip, motox, road course, etc... all combined. Wierd though. It is a very classic woodsy track that just seems cool to me, specifically because the turns require a lot of late apex turn-ins.

Anyways, what is the other one ;) (In US)

Mid-America?

Nope, very similar layout, though, just mirrored.

Putnam Park

[Forbin]

Here's another circuit for you.

[Tweaker]

Yeah Putnam Park. I have another one here read to go, post your own aswell :)

1) This one is a tough one, because the aerial is such poor quality. So I drew out the path a bit.

I remember this track from someone doing it for NR4... Not sure if it ever was finished... Anyway... He called it Pacific Raceway, and didn't have the dragstrip modeled :)

I remembered the layout because the name always reminded me of the race that was held on this next track, which I wanted to drive but didn't have:

[chakra]

These ones are all in the UK, so if you're from here you've got an advantage!

1 is a very hard one so I left "Roads" on on Google Earth - they include the track.
2 shouldn't be that hard but the picture was awful, so I've (badly) drawn the track on.
3 is very hard too but you can clearly see the track layout.
4 should be extremely easy! Even non-Brits should get this.
5 is a hard one too but a good quality picture.

If anyone gets 1, 3 and 5 I'll be impressed!

DING!

I hear they're trying to improve it for spectators and racers alike... put stands closer to the track and widen/smooth the track in places so it won't be a parade. I live nearby, which is why I thought of posting it.

Here's another one... not exactly a race track, but a very famous location that's related to autosport.

I saw the revised map, it does look a bit different around that Chavez area. But the last straightway has got to go. That area is like a slum, and is a terrible spot to add a section of the track :( I really don't think they can make it better for spectators because the fencing is what the problem is. They will never get rid of the fencing for safety, and that is too bad because, if you try to look down the track, you won't see it at all, because the farther down, the fencing ever-so-slightly obstructs the view more and more, until you cannot see anything at all. And that is within like a 30 foot distance :(. The only way to make it better would be to have grandstands EVERYWHERE that are higher than the fences. And hopefully the grandstands could be free in most areas, but chances are they wouldn't be. :shrug: I was hoping for the best with that track, since it is only 30 mins from my place, but all the people that went with me agree that there is a slim chance we will ever go again, unless they can make huge improvements for the spectators... but it is so cramped there with so many restrictions on where put things, it still seems they are troubled with making a decent track.

I still prefer Laguna Seca :static: And Infineon 2nd, but that place is always hot!

Bonneville Salt Flats

[Leifde]

A couple here.

Warning: I'd be very surprised if anyone got the second one.

Is that first one the Isle of Man TT circuit?
The second one is the scalextric circuit currently occupying my lad's bedroom floor.

Nope, it isn't a scalextric track, you got the first one right though.

Actually somebody already guessed it correctly, and no it's not a bobsleigh track. In fact, it's not even snow.

Norisring... easy...

As I said, pretty easy :scratchch

#2: Kyalami. Fun SBK2001 track. :)
#3: Oschersleben. Also in SBK2001.

Can't make out #1.

[ATHome]

Yup, that's correct...

#1 would maybe be known better in an GPL forum *hint*

[Tweaker]

#1 -- I am not really sure, but I had to search the name just so I could spell it right. Schleizer Dreieck (http://www.silhouet.com/motorsport/tracks/schleize.gif)? It looks a lot like it at least... but I am not sure if I am even looking at the picture right :(

Ahhh I could recognize that one from old Superbike game :) Phillip Island.

[Modoff]

yep i didnt think anyone would get mid ohio cus its such a bad picture. but yea there all right:D

NO i have no clue. The straights seem really long for a street course

[TagForce]

Well, I shouldn't be the one that gets all of them, should I? :D (which is a good excuse for not saying "no")

[TagForce]

Mid-Ohio is one of my favorite tracks, so I knew the layout ;)

BTW, I know which track that is Tweak, but I had to look through all Italian tracks to find this one since I'd never heard of it before...

[Modoff]

ok i got it the Pescara grand prix. :D

[TagForce]

[TagForce]

I'm at work and can't look for pictures of tracks here... So it'll have to come from someone else for now.

[Tweaker]

Some pic I found online. I'm going to bed :)

[Modoff]

Got two more. and its 2 in the moring so im off to bed also.

[avih]

@Modoff:
isn't #1 very similar to kyoto ring? tri-oval kinda thingy?
and #3 reminds fern-bay green at the left side :) nearly identical series of turns (left chicane, left U, left bend and sands as run off :) )

[TagForce]

[Madman_CZ]

One guy just sent me an image part of some track asking me whether i had any idea what it was. At first my initial thought was the chicance at Watkins Glen but after going on google earth to find it I found out Watkins Glen is a low quality image on google earth so I ask.. any ideas as to what this track might be? It has been bugging me for the last 2hours :arge:

here is the picture - LINK (http://www.maddogsimracing.com/GoogleEarth%202006-09-06%2000-07-10-92.jpg)

As the thread is alive again, I may as well post a new challenge

Note: This is just a part of the circuit.

[Xaid0n]

[TheDeppchef]

I should maybe note that the track is not used anymore and was not a permanent track either. ;)

One of the corners at AVUS?

[wheel4hummer]

Yes, I don't know what AVUS is, but I google-earthed it.

[TheDeppchef]

That is correct. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVUS)
