Quintin03 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Bi-loop superspeedway

I'd already shown you a pre-completion version in the USGP thread. I have
finished it now. This is a top view of what I made but without the edges shown.

This track is based on a design of another track which only featured the main bi-loop superspeedway. Mind you that design has a patent on it so if anyone wants to use it for commercial purposes contact me first. To this I added the two other ovals and roadcourse variants.
The rest of the facility isn't nearly as well modeled but I had to stop sometime. The Main track on the other hand is extremely well modeled down to FIA and FIM standard starting grids for up to 40 spots.
Anyway I'm happy with it as it is. It's something different from what we've seen yet among (r)ovals.

Now I want to hear your thoughts as usual.

This is what I like to see - an original oval! It would still be fast, but there would be the challenge of something like Pocono in NASCAR, where each corner would have to be treated seperately.

In fact I love the whole facility. The only thing it needs in my eyes is a separate road course if it were to be a perfect facility, but then there are already road course variations within the oval (roval?), so it doesn't matter so much.

Keep 'em coming Quintin!

I like the ideas shown in the design of the oval(s). However a few of the turns have a radius that is too small and might end up a bit too challenging and even a little too dangerous. Just look at Homestead as an example of a big track that originally had turns that were too tight in radius that led to many dangerous accidents and even a death.

I don't really know what you mean. The turns leading off the front- and onto the back-stretch have run off areas. The inner oval is modeled after NHMS. Remember this place is even larger than Indy by a small margin.

It appears the size was too large. I've put it into the 3d warehouse so you'll have to find it there. It's under the same name as this thread so that shouldn't be much of a problem.

I see that you have layering issues. There is a lot of work done to get the design to this stage but probably twice as much to sort out the issues.

Ovals that have only such turns that are distinctly different from one another are a very good way to liven up an oval championship. The 5 corner layout you have opted for here is a nice idea which I like. However, I must agree with my forespeaker who said that the radius of Turn 4 might be too small somewhat.
