One per thread only, please, and Austin's (CotA) thread is on the first page...
 


The video is excellent, not seen an onboard before, nice flow to the circuit and quicker than it looks as a map.

It was a pre-war GP track (this configuration first used in 1935)

This is footage from the 1935 race (the onboard's not quite the same)

I'll vote any city-based track. They seem to provide more diverse challenges than more trad old school tracks - not all the time of course...
 
If you're going to add this track, you might as well add some WTCC cars and an F3 model. That would make the track addition worth it.
