hmm ... suppose the hammerhead's line could be drawn in too.
but it's better than nothing. so they just run that thing in a figure of 8 aye.

Didn't realise the left after the start was that sharp.

Now I just need to find some way to import this into Gran Turismo 4. images/smilies/wink.gif

Viper007Bond · March 17th, 2005, 12:34 AM

Needs little red arrows for the direction.

Bombaer · March 17th, 2005, 04:31 PM

Hm, now all we need is someone who does the track for grand Prix Legends - and we all could compare our times images/smilies/smile.gif

Here is an aerial photo of Dunsfold Park. If you know what you are looking for, you can see the Top Gear test track.

I don't understand what you mean by this.

Overheat · March 24th, 2005, 10:27 PM

He means if you know what the track looks like from above, it's quite easy to see the track on the map.

3278 · March 24th, 2005, 10:35 PM

I guess I understood that. Where is the track?

v0od0o · March 24th, 2005, 10:50 PM

One day - rather completely chemically impaired - I was talking about the orderly yet human-incomprehensible nature of the universe in somewhat specifically mathematical terms [as I am wont to do], and my friend H - we all have nicknames - said, and I quote, "You're not human. You don't deserve a name. You deserve a number, and your number is three two seven eight." So, that's what everyone calls me.

klop · March 25th, 2005, 08:58 PM

Does anyone know how long (meters) the test track is?

massy · March 25th, 2005, 09:22 PM

Jeremy said in an episode that it's about 2 miles but I never heard or found the exact length.

zyran · March 26th, 2005, 01:47 AM

Can someone really draw the red lines on the aerial view.

dru · March 27th, 2005, 07:30 AM
