A fully scaled and scanned DTM Norisring circuit... all coming up in the next edition
Scenery such as cranes and buildings will be at later date!
Just realised Turn 7 and 8 are slightly misscaled. Will adjust and put the scenery in! This will be nice!
Absence is key... haha. Sorry for the lack of posts!
I've returned for a brief respite in Layoutting this year. This might be my one and only layout this time; I am indeed busy with other projects around Adobe, Sketchup, 3Ds, aaand you get the point!
Nova's Really Good Circuit Layouts Vol. 10
Norisring
"This is a track I've always wanted to redo, having done a smaller version on Autocross.
Chosen location is Aston - the backdrop and scenery very much suits the environment of the actual track!
DTM does some crazy races here, and Norisring is steeped in history as one heck of a small rocket circuit. Blitz around the track in the GTRs for that authentic DTM feeling, or take something like
the FBM and relive the European FBM Series.
The track is accurately scanned and outlined before put up in LFS. It is correctly scaled, and
all environment objects like buildings, grandstands and cranes are exact to real life."
Norisring Small Update 1 (V3)
Small update to Norisring layout, with full pit lane with pit boxes, along with a podium.
Also added is a first - prototype "gravel" trap in Turn 1 run-off zone.

As the description may hint, this is a rather fun and stressful challenge. Viral it could be; but definitely one to try out
on a boring Sunday. If you are a Pikes Peak or Goodwood fan, this is a must try!
Simple idea - run a fast car along the sidewalk of Blackwood yard with next to no run off. Challenge your
friends to the fastest time possible! No preview this time - try it out to find out!

This is one track from the older archives! Been almost 2 years, forgot I even had this stored somewhere!
Here is a mini-version of one of Indonesia's discreet race tracks. Located just off capital Jarkata, this track
provides close racing in lesser powered cars, and can also be a decent drifting circuit!
Less popular to us, it may prove an interesting challenge with the twisty middle sector. Have fun!
Credits to LCS-R ltras for suggesting this!

Used traction control off the line, then turned it off down the first straight before the first bin. You need it off after that or you lose too much time.
my setup wasnt really good for this as i based it quick on an as1 set and set cambers to -2.5, 10% diff made the slides easy to adjust with throttle so i started doing a few runs with using TC only at the start. I had a funny walltap into the container on my lap which helped the car out of that corner really neatly
Its possible to go faster but you need good coordination and timing to get some leverage from the kerbs in the corners and there's a 50% chance you spin or get stuck in the kerb That's an impressive time, though
Seems the fastest, Pete! Maybe after hours of tweaking you can go faster.
Anyway, to everyone still subscribed to this fancy pancy layout thread,
Thank you for your continuous support. It really honestly means a lot to see people enjoying my work and it's rewarding even though there isn't much league usage (yet). Gives me the drive to continue thinking and crafting each track with joy and I hope I can continue to do so!
Every track from start to current has had a facelift and/or grid expansion. All of these updated race-spec courses have been uploaded with "V3" in the name. Do have a look!
Personal Favourites? I'll have to say Monaco, Norisring, Mid-Town Ring.
And of course, the Lmaoring - named for the fun we had with our late racer in LCS-R, Marcus, who sadly passed on last year. In his honor, the updated inner stadium section now features the finalised Marcus Arena structure.
NOTE: Course aesthetics have improved since above video. Return stage routes have been widened, and stages color coded.
Ever wanted to test your precision driving and patience? Wait no further!
I bring to you a two-part Ninja Warrior/banzuke influenced obstacle course. Few have conquered this course and
fewer have done it in a fast time. Will you be the king of the course?
First ever competitive small-scale obstacle course I've made that will take more patience than most
others! Carefully constructed to be neat, whilst being fully doable given enough time.
Put your slow precision driving skill to the test in this 4 stage course with your friends or
simply take a spin and attempt to finish the run in quickest time possible!
Each stage has a "return-to-stage route" to the stage start just like the real Ninja stages.
You do not have to restart the entire course if you fall off once.
Have fun, and be sure to stay... calm!

Nice track attempt! But I'd like if you don't advertise on other people's work thread, thanks!
Craft your own thread and watch your work take off from there
Very nice! Grid looks dense, may cause traffic in T1. After a quick look I like everything but I feel little bit "hmm...why?" about the sharp apex that can be seen in the first gif above (the latter corner) - ah you ran out of objects, right? .
