Actually from the exit of the second curve to the next to last curve (the "hairpin") is all green with buildings only in the background on the horizon (at that time it was more marked). The buildings are seen in the near horizon on the next to last curve. You can see this with the "street view" of "Google maps".I send you some slides taken by me in the 1974 GP, inl 1975, 1976 , in that order.
    Great job!!!

    A year or so I downloaded this track, however I noticed the onboard cameras didn't work. Has this been fixed?

    I tried a rolling start, but it didn't go well. Is there a left path in the AIW?

    Great work Phil or Rob... :) This was my first visit to BA and I really enjoyed it. The track itself has a feel similar to the old 60's Mexico City circuit. A couple of long straights, a long, looong, parabolica and then a twisty turney bit where single file is almost required. I did notice one bit of bloom off the white grandstands on top of the ACA tower (at the beginning of Pit lane) Not always, but as you come out of the right-hander before the left onto the s/f straight, the white seats on the top of the tower would get very bright. It took me three laps to just recognize the right hander where the yellow tow truck was located(the beginning of the twisty section) I ate the armco repeatedly... :)
    Thanks for the great track. YOUR EFFORT is appreciated.

    Yes Dave , i put that yellow truck at that spot, because i also kept driving straight on, it was to give me a hint.
    Not noticed the bloom at that bit before.
