    I been doing several laps to this track, and I have to say it's very fun with the right car. I like the high curbs.

    It would be very useful to add some trees or publicity boards at the "curvón" because it's too flat and it's easy to lost the reference.

    Here are a bad quality pictures of "El curvón" , it's name is "Salotto" maybe you can use the brand names to search the logos and make them high

    "Condor estrella" is a bus travelling service, "Bristol Medicine" is an insurance company, and "Drago" they sell "sifones" look for yourself :) .

    "Rio uruguay Seguros" is another insurance company
    Also found this page which has a lot of modern and antique pictures and it may help you with the sidetrack objects.

    Also must mention that the asphalt is en very bad condition, specially at the pitlane exit, last time i saw a f1 demonstration there (it was a williams 6 or 7 years ago) the driver was jumping inside the cockpit because of the asphalt.

    I recently downloaded this and the track looks great, however in game not all the camera's are working. Onboard and swingman work but a majority of the others do not such as the tracking camera (essential) and the circuit cameras. I'm unsure if I am doing something wrong or if other people are having the same problem? Any help would be appreciated.

    This track looks very nice. I wonder though, you said it is a hobby for you so what would be your your estimate how long it will be until it's updated. The only reason I ask is because I'm running an AI series and Buenos Aires is up next :D

    i have a question for you.
    with google sketchup I took the 3D model of the real circuit. I have superimposed the converted track with the real one for to better position objects.but the track does not match. even altitudes are different.
    what do you think. I redesign the track or let it be as it is now? I am inclined to redesign the track.

    look:

    Depends on how long the redesign would take?

    Good news. Taking the time to do it (both!) properly will be worth it.
