Slow Onboard video when track was being built.

So new, it doesn’t even have a website. The best bit? It was a public works project for it’s local government. Full FIA approval and has hosted 1 race so far. Would LOVE to see F1 there.

def awesome for F1

GTFO WOW that is insane. Wouldnt mind making some laps around there.

Oh, found out it had one race on it in '87 was a road “circuit” and was never used after that as a race track only “public roads” due to several fatalities (drivers and spectators). Until it’s reconstruction as a new permanent FIA approved circuit this past year.

And I’m now downloading the FIA GT race from last november there. I’ll try and put some clips up.

Thats incredible, the “mountain road” aspect is fantastic. Looks like quite a few tight hair pins as well :tup:

beautiful.

Try that in the US and retards build homes around it. Home owners complain about the noise. Track is squeezed or closed.

I could dig up a bunch more but don’t want to hijack my own thread.

Watched it awhile ago, stunning track and great race,The after race altercation was pretty funny. It begs for a prototype race but we shall see.

Thats pretty badass, I would love to take a lap there.

It looks dangerous… :slight_smile:

One wrong turn at speed and you’re through a fence into trees… or… water

Last lap battle between Saleen S7R and Corvette C6R.

^^^ that was a lot less exciting than i thought it would be.

Where?

Argentina.

Would LOVE to watch a race there… dont think i would like to drive my own car there… not a lot of whoops room

Looks like a pretty but stupid track. No run off, spectators on impact walls, etc. Pretty though, but more suitable for a video game.

Oh you mean like every oval track in the world?:slight_smile: While the spectator placement may need some adjustments the lack of run offs is hardly an issue. It’s no different than the numerous street courses out there, you just have to be on the ball an minimize your mistakes.

NASCAR sucks.

As far as road courses, I prefer that they have runoff as I also prefer that fast, beautiful cars and my heroes that drive don’t meet with death and destruction.

Also, if someone is going to build a new track I’d prefer that they have runoff as I have raced on tracks with and without runoff. . . take a guess as to which I prefer. :lol:
