If PD joined Google Maps with the Track Editor, what would you make?

A Highway Racing Course located in HK similar to the SSR7 with some narrow bends in the starting point
 
Here is a street circuit that uses pit straight of Mt panorama but runs through the centre of town, through some back streets (some possible dirt roads). 25.3 km, the Street version of the Nurb :lol:

The newer version of Hong Kong SSR7,the U-Turn corner on the right is similar to the SSR7's one, and the left one is the toll plaza also. The google map is a **** so the toll plaza can change to a sharp u turn similar to the SSR7.

The only two differences are:it in not in "Fictional" Japan and there is no tunnel.

Enjoy!
 
cherohala skyway in eastern TN/Western NC. ~40 miles of awesome-sauce

This for sure! You're lucky to be close, I've driven from Va. just to hit up those roads. Would be great to drive the Dragon without speed traps...and fear of death!

This is the road/track close to my home, So close they keep me wake every night every weekend tearing up and down till 3am, 3.2 miles long really fun trying to get through the roundabouts fast as my lil ford focus can take me lol
 
An update of the old Birmingham Street Circuit used in the late 80's and the only street circuit used on mainland Britain! (I think lol)

Start/Finish at K, goes round Anti-C/wise.


I remember going to the 'Superprix'
and years before it, on the streets events
 
I would get the longest stretch of straight highway in the U.S. and make it like a 50 mile long track.

And make roads that are close to places like baseball stadiums, I remember going on the Seattle Circuit and i'm convinced Safeco Field is in there...

This was my first thought as well to be honest, haha. What part of Birmingham are you from? I'd like to see a motorway course running on the M6. Would be awesome if they somehow incorporated Spaghetti Junction.
 
This would have great elevation change if you go by the bright red route. The dark red are possible route changes but not as much elevation change.

I guess it would be more of a time trial or tarmac rally stage than a road race, but I'd love to see this in a game....

Highway 129 aka Deal's Gap aka Tail of the Dragon

Unfortunately I didn't get the scale guide in the screen-cap, but the speed limit on the road is 25 mph. The fastest you'd see is maybe 60 mph... because most of it is banked second gear corners at about 30-40 mph.

Shots to give you an idea of what it's like...

Starting at the Rive Gauche train station in Versailles, it'd go north towards the market place, take a left shortly before, go through a roundabout and approach the Chateau de Versailles from the northern side, so driving up the hill, which is covered by lots of trees (beautiful scenery). Pass the front and the stables, pass by the Orangerie de Versailles but take a right after leaving this sector so that one can drive through small streets and drive back on a rather big street (down the hill, covered by trees as well), so that one ultimately ends up at the Rive Gauche train station once again. Around 5 km.
 
Too lazy to go through the trouble of screen cap, paste into paint, and upload to imageshack, so just click the links for the map.

Atlantic City Grand Prix: Goes past every casino so they all get equal economic boost, and has a nice long tunnel too since PD loves them. Pacific Ave would probably need to be repaved though.

Oak Glen Loop: The map doesn't show the elevation changes, very small turns, and tightness of the roads, which make this (including part of my old daily commute to HS) fun.
 
I'd suggest the entire Old Pacific Highway from Tuggerah to Berowra, but it's too long.

And I also have this one that I made about a month ago (I call it "Bauxite"), but a lot of the roads are temporary because they're in an open-cut mine, and so they don't appear on Google Maps.
 
Street circuit I created in my countries capital city, Wellington. I haven't measured it, but the horizontal straight between Frederick St and Jessie St is about 600m. Circuit runs Clockwise.
