Circuit du Mas du Clos

Circuit Statistics:
Length:
3.1KM (1.93 mi)
Corners: 11
Direction: Clockwise

Circuit Info: Created in the 60's, Mas du Clos is a picturesque French circuit that was owned by the late Ferrari collector Pierre Bardinon. Sadly, a few years ago the circuit was forced to close due to circuit safety concerns and mounting costs for the family. However, safety is of less importance in a video game, right? This might be the only way to continue a track's legacy before time starts the cruel destruction of the real thing.

Enjoy the following video - make sure your sound is on:



Oh, and maybe a video to understand the full layout without all the audio porn:

I'm all for the idea of reviving circuits that would otherwise be forgotten by adding them to Gran Turismo. I would love to see the old Meadowdale track recreated, with its famous corner, the Monza Wall... I think I'm starting a thread :cheers:
 
It's a shame they closed this track, I was lucky to drive there in 2009 and 2010 with a motorcycle. It has a fast section for those with big balls :scared: and a technical section, and its the combination that makes it fun 👍. For me it was perfectly save like it was ! When you drive there it's your own choice and you drive as fast as you think it is safe...

First corner is a blind corner, we were going as close as possible to the tyres and then the circuit drops down so fast :crazy: , had a few speedwhobbles, luckily I didn't crash :bowdown:.
