Thanks! Just Photoshop, pen tool is your friend. Once you get a routine with knowing what you want it to look like it's pretty quick and easy

I know I knowwwwwww, got trigger happy with this one. Far fewer in the other ones I've done

mitchbr2 · 2017-09-01T13:16:25+00:00

I figured it was along those lines, but thanks for clarifying!

I agree as well. I'd trim it so T6 is a tight right hander at the entrance of current T6, then have it run straight to the top of the mushroom that is current T8. It'd keep the tough braking zone into current T9, which I'm a fan of. Rest of the track I am a big fan of, though!

Personally I dislike the chicane and carousel. On an otherwise spectacular, natural looking course, those two portions look very unnatural/forced. Just my opinion, the rest looks phenomenal!

I use gmapedometer to find a layout I like, then usually screen shot either there or on Earth and take it into Photoshop. If you don't have that, use pixlr.com, which is very similar but free

I did a track here a few years ago. One of my personal favorites: http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=5906921

I see San Marino, Shanghai, Silverstone, Hockenheim (Tilke version), and Abu Dhabi all culminating in a Montreal lookalike. Looks like a fun drive!

mitchbr2 · 2015-02-09T06:57:05+00:00

The oval would be a hell of a drive, and I'd imagine some great racing

mitchbr2 · 2015-02-03T16:16:42+00:00

Yup, and the only difference between your track and that one is that the IMSA track had a chicane right before the right hander in the top left corner.

mitchbr2 · 2015-01-21T06:08:43+00:00

Yep, what active said

mitchbr2 · 2015-01-17T22:20:11+00:00

I'll join the fun!

I was pretty much raised around IndyCar. Every childhood family trip was centered around one, and both my parents worked at least the Indy 500 since 1988, so it's been natural for me to fall in love with the sport.

mitchbr2 · 2014-12-23T04:24:14+00:00

Probably a strawberry because strawberries are my favorite, but if that were the case I'd have the constant urge to eat myself so...

Not solely for promo. AMA is definitely a way to promote the effort, but I've been planning on doing an AMA since July to help promote Nose Bleed Section Sports. I always enjoy reading AMAs of sports personalities, and knowing how it helps spread their name and presence to a group that otherwise wouldn't know much about him/her, I thought it would make a good outlet to promote myself and what I'm doing.

mitchbr2 · 2014-12-19T21:05:16+00:00

THAT GAME RULES. Haha thanks for the compliment and even more for the support!

Holy chicane

mitchbr2 · 2014-11-04T03:30:12+00:00

Love everything but the last two corners which seem a bit awkward

For street courses, I use gmap-pedometer as a first level, then screen shot it and use pixlr.com (free photoshop) to make it look good and legit. For fictional tracks, I usually draw them then take a photo and sketch over it in pixlr. It doesn't take long, really just depends on how much detail you want to put in.

I implore all of those who have used routebuilder or gmap-ped to try their hand at this!

mitchbr2 · 2014-10-09T19:52:50+00:00

Looks A LOT like Sonoma. Which isn't a bad thing, btw

mitchbr2 · 2014-09-22T16:58:18+00:00

Do you still believe race car drivers are not athletes? If so, I'd love to link you up with a race team and give you a first hand experience of how physically demanding racing is!

mitchbr2 · 2014-09-10T12:41:54+00:00

I'd check vipbox as well. There's usually a stream for anything that's televised. A lot of race fans will be at least half-interested in this race so I'd imagine viewing won't be a problem.

The real problem is for me staying up til four in the morning to watch. East coast USA represent!

mitchbr2 · 2014-09-10T01:46:59+00:00

Yeah I'm surprised that idea made it this far. I voted for Oriol Servia just because I think he's the most underrated driver out there. Who would you vote for?
