A program called "Slotman" or "Slot Car Manager" was used to figure the layout. I spent an evening plotting tracks on a blank page. The system indicates the overall footprint while laying out the track. It was actually kind of fun.
The parameters were:
1) Standard curves only
2) Fits on a 4x8 table
3) Use as much track as possible
It was easy enough to use that HO and 1/43 tracks were easily designed soon after learning the program.
