Here's my favorite currently. I really wish I could make something similar to Redrock Ridge from NFS 3. Anyway, this one is called Crimson Sky Drive. It's a bit of a lengthy track at 5.13 miles. It has 24 turns and 135ft of elevation change.
Here's the map of it.
The first corner has a small town visible on the left side. There's a slight bend before the actual hard turn, best to brake between them.
A bit of a twisty section. Careful the hard left right after this spot.
After coming down this hill and through the turn, you'll be able to open the throttle for a bit before getting back into some more turns.
This is that last turn before you crest a hill and then go speeding down the long, smooth section toward the finish line.
High speeds? Why yes of course!
After the high speed run, you'll need to brake at or before the top of the hill if you don't want to wreck in the last corner before the last straightaway and the finish line.
I have this map up for sharing, it would be nice if we got more than one slot for tracks...

Known to me as the Eifel Hill Climb, (2011, as I hope to be making more) the track opens, with a long, wide straight that becomes narrow, and then the hills start. Through the inner section, it's less rough, but where you see the long curve in the top right corner, that's the huge drop-off.
I also have it in a wet format, and this is just the prototype for a series to come.

This one I've made recently is great.
I like the layout a lot, in-game it feels realistic, much like real roads:
How did you get that screen that shows you the comments and the stats for the track?

I'm going to be taking down Walnut Canyon pretty soon so if anybody else wants to try it, send me a request.

May I present Cadron Creek Time Attack:
Obviously made in Eifel Kart. It's as wide as possible to make it possible to race there but I see it's prime use as a time attack venue.
The video shows time of day as 7AM but I changed the time to 11AM to reduce glare.
This track is shared now.

I made a good track at Eifel. Miles behind Mark17s but there is a hill to go up then a bump followed by a blind corner. All the cars I have tested have hit the bump flown into a close to track wall and missed the blind corner. I rolled the Zonda on my second lap there. I also have a really narrow road bit on it which makes it hard to keep the car on the track.

My best track? Difficult to say. I made and use many of them.
Have a look here:

The Arezzo is great for racing.
The Pescara-like is ideal for testing

Today I made 5 tracks in total, all based on the same layout.
The idea was to have a track evolve like some of the more historical tracks today.
First was Bruman Speedway 1920's a very narrow basic loop style course with one big hairpin turn.
Next was Bruman Speedway Variante 1940's, pretty much the same as the 20's version but with a chase style sector on the mountain top, and widened the road going into the hairpin for overtaking under brakes. (Chase as in Bathurst).
Then Bruman Speedway 1950's. Widened some more sectors and added a compex into the second half of the track in the downhill section. This became more like a 'real' race course with the widened road.
Onto Bruman Raceway 1980's (FIA Spec). The whole track was widened and some sectors tidied up for safety/overtaking.
Bruman RACEWAY 2010. The track is now very wide like the newer F1 style layouts, still keeping the original layout with variante and complex.
So I am very happy with what I set out to achieve and gives a sense of belonging that was missing from earlier creations. It's very fun to start out on the earlier tracks working up to the latest and seeing the evolution.
I'll try and get some photos up tomorrow.
Its a pity we cant share more than 1 track though, it would make a great race series similar to the Grand Tour.

Here's my shakedown track.

Love this one!
I must say, the amount of diversity (shape-wise) among tracks posted here (and ones I've made myself) is great. What would be nice is a bit more control / randomness over the track-side details and features, so they don't look too similar.

Interesting. Can you show some pictures, or the track layout?

I like my Track very much (it was the first tryout with the Track-Editor): If you want it

I have a nice flowing high speed track I have coined Circuit Le Vail. Its just over four miles and I have set low 1.20's with the formula gran turismo and the Pescarolo C60 Hybride (Almost 1000hp) Pescarolo topped out at 245mph on the front straight. I have it shared online if interested, my PSN is the same as my user name.
