Info Track Plans
#1

We've now added a Track Plans section to the site, where you can find over 130 layouts, and more will be added in due course.

Watch out, updates incoming.

I've added about thirty new track plans, taking us up to over 160.

Also, as part of my endless quest to add context to some of the real circuits, as part of my effort to entertain, educate and inform, and obviously because I'm a bit obsessed, I've added some stories about the classic races at some of the circuits. Nurburgring 1957, Havana 1957-58, Buenos Aires 1962, Le Mans 1966, Fuji 1977, and Interlagos 2008. Even if you're already familiar with all of those, they're worth a reminder.

If anyone has any other suggestions for iconic races which should be covered I'd be very interested to hear and learn, and will probably pile in and make it so.

Finally, I don't like blowing my own trumpet, but can you hear that out of tune fanfare? The reason for me trying to recreate the triumphal march from Aida is that I've now been through every UR track library that I've used and co-ordinated all of the colour coding so that they are consistent across them all. Not only that, but I've produced some fiendishly clever coding to enable Ultimate Racer to supply us with colour coded track lists, which tie in with the colour coded track diagrams.

Don't worry, I know nobody else will understand any of that, but trust me it's good, have a look.

I have to thank you again for the unbelieveable work you do behind the scenes. It is amazing - and thank you!!

Yo Jason, 
The colour coding makes it easy to see what the layout consists of and will help people who are converting from  one track system to another.
The race histories are great also, I read the Fuji 1976  article and then found myself checking the history of Penske F1.

Cheers,  Leo

A few more additions to report...
  • First a bit of an African vibe, with Kyalami and Chingola Scalextric plans, and East London, Mellaha, Benguela and Windhoek in the Ninco section.
  • A bunch of new routed track plans
  • Some new combination tracks from CHORC, which each have two possible configarations
  • Other bits and bobs I can't actually remember right now
All of which takes us up to 184 track plans in total. Wrench
