The perfect bucket track

[all4A50s]

If a bucket racing track was to be built in Wellington what would you the track to have?

Everything at Kaitoke.

Done.

A hill like MG corner (Phillip Island) A corkscrew ( Laguna Seca) a blind Fast right hander (dingle dal Brands Hatch) fast downhill sweepers (Craner Curves Dollington Park) tight infield section (Sachsenring) and all of Roys Hill and Kaitoke I think that should do it.

+1
Just to add something a bit more mrkin to the mix, a banked section with a fast decreasing radius entry into the infield, ala Daytona.
Oh and the mountain jump at Cadwell Park!


Edit: Fuck! this track would end up quite long, probably still fit into a smaller space than Ruapuna B track though!

Hmmm,...I like what everyone had said here.

Donnington Park wee jump down the straight, Laguna's corkscrew, Phil Island's fast flat out right-hander after the straight, errr...actually, Kaitoke with a little of Roy's Hill in there.

But it would be wrong to spoil a good track like that by having it in Welly, better build it in Dorkland where it will be appreciated properly.

When we raced the Turners and Growers carpark in Grenada North one of the layout directions had an off chamber slightly down hill 90 degree right hand sweeper. Top gear(Slipwayish gearing) was hooked just at the entry and the throttle held open all the way through, my bike would just be starting to lose rear grip at the exit and start to get power ocillations (like a big V-twin does when scrabbling for traction).
Could we have that corner please?

If we do build this track we'll have to hide it (from Auckalofans) and whatever the layout is it's should suit big heavy beam framed four strokes.

A Brooklands type banking for a "flat in top section"

Doesn't the B-track do that for you? Just tilt your head slightly, you could have 30 or 45 degree banking depending on how flexible your neck is

I personally would like a 300 m straight, into a sweeping corner straight into a tight 'S' bend, followed by a 100 m straight with a jump at the end followed by a couple of sweeping corners then back down the 300 m straight.

With some sort of wind breaks...

Wind breaks?

You'd need coffee breaks with straights that long

something I could run my 650 on

Nah itd be cool to have some flat out corners corckscrew luki heights style

SOmething awsoem and Grenada corner was cool as aye I remember that downhill section it wasnt really down hill by much but was cool enough shame i was to slow to notice the whole sliding affect I do remember jay there tho fast little bugger that he is

Hey I still want to ring every ounce of oily sweat out of my bike before dumping it through a couple of corners. So maybe not a 300 meter straight but at least 200 metres.

theres a few free downloads for making up race tracks for slot cars, they are well worth playing with for track ideas or if you plan on winning the lottery.
