Yellowstone Circuit
Hey guys. Here's my new racetrack.
The track goes clockwise and has a lot of elevation changes. Tell me if you lie the track or not. If not: Tell me why. |

I like it
 Maybe I would do things a little bit differently around the hairpin, but I like the rest. |

I agree with pirenzo re the hairpin, and i think it would be a bit boring track, overtaking-wise, as there isnt many tight corners. However, it's really, really nice seeing a track with som shifty-niftyness and a few unengineered zigzags - thumbs up for that!

Yeah coz the original Monza was rubbish for overtaking because it had no slow corners  . Seriously-I love that track!

. A track can't just be straights-kinks-straights, and the occasional hairpin. You've gotta have some varieity in it too.

Yeah, i'll go with that t_r, i really love esses and really fast corners, although i do appreciate slow corners are needed to create overtaking opportunities.
As for yellowstone, well i'm really liking that long back straight, but im not too sure on the section after it, however. I do approve of that "shifty-niftyness and a few unengineered zigzags " that t_r pointed out, too. Nice one! |

I quite like the layout, though it would have to be done in a Nordschleife style (disappearing out into the country in a "dangerous" mannor) rather than a modern circuit.
I might be tempted to "wrap" the hairpin around a mountain side, with an evelvation change. Wriggle up the mountain and come down the straighter way. |

I like it - I love fast and flowing circuits like this, the old Zandvoort being a prime example. I can pick out 3 good overtaking opportunities, so I don't think it would be too much of a problem
