a question i ask myself
many of my tracks, i also drive real life, or hope to ... so i'm building them for some practice,
and so i usually try to duplicate kerbs as exactly as possible, so that the visual cues are the same
on some tracks, i will feel more free ...
> if i want to simulate more width by using the widening effect of kerbing,
>or if it's a track i want to race online with friends, it might need 'kerb enhancement'
to increase overtaking possibilities here and there

Ok, the 'old' 6km Assen TT now available here - https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/resources/assen-tt-old-circuit.2787/
(direct link https://www.gran-turismo.com/us/gt6/user/#!/friend/gtxf-Samoht/course/1474972/ )
I went for a 10m width, on the grounds that the start-finish straight will be wider anyway, and there's more chance of achieving the turns accurately with a slightly narrower track.
It's actually quite tricky to work out the old layout accurately; the brown line on the map is nearly right, but it doesn't quite match what I can see of the old layout on google maps, so I followed the satellite as far as I can. The Strubben hairpin had to be moved slightly away from the start-finish straight for clearance, and the first corner moved out slightly to get CM to allow me to place the bridge on the approach, but otherwise I think it's accurate. It came out at 5973m, so less than 1% error in length.
It's an awesome track, with fantastic high-speed combinations of corners, a real challenge. Lots of fun to race on!

I've found a few version of today Assen, most of them are very funny even if not particularly accurate, but I can't find anywhere the good old Assen. Does anyone have a link or would like to create it?

Considering that it was mainly a motorbike track and that it is not that wide for car racing, yes, kerbs would be helpful, especially for overtakes. Also I think they won't upset the track, they just give you the chance to use a few more cm without losing control.
Edit: I've just watched a few videos on YT paying attention to the kerbs. I think a good compromise between the 80's absolute absence of them and their omnipresence in nowadays circuit would be following the 90's / early 2000's version, with a few kerbs where you expect they should be.

All my tracks are obeying real-world kerbs, exception on few street circuit which are without on real-life but added kerbs there on GT6 version.
I'm putting kerbs there, this old '81 layout is narrower than many later revision of it, made 9.2m wide
realism is realism.. but let's see what final version be..

I'm not sure if this was already suggested, but how about certain section Transfăgărăşan, beautiful Romanian road?
Death Valley or Andalucia would seem like a good theme for the construction.

You go to Sugo?

This is the best version I've found. The guy has also done a nice Autopolis and Okayama (Aida TT)
All three are Eifel (rolling hills) but the track layout and flow seem good to me.

There's a brilliant course that could be done in Blackpool. I often driven along a route on way to mum in laws and thought 'if we could cone this off, go right at this junction etc with the roundabout and elevation changes it would be awesome!'
So now you've gone and got me all psyched up to get on with trying it....I can't wait!

Would anyone mind making a replica of Hong Kong from GT4? The exact track length is around 1.81 miles, so try to get as closest to that as possible. Also, use this site if you can: http://carcomplete.eu/
