Google Sat

Note that Microsoft is debuting a sat/map service that has somewhat
better resolution than the google satellite pix. Google's satellite
pix of less-populous areas are not very high-resolution.

This site has almost every race circuit that ever existed:

http://www.racingcircuits.net/

If you click on the "Map" button on each circuit's page, more often
than not the map that displays has the latitude/longitude coordinates
listed near the bottom.

PS: I fixed my non-wrapping news reader. ;-P

 

Ah, you did it the old fashioned way... where'd you get the Lat/Lon?

 

See my recent post.

Got it. Here's my local - er - racetrack. Watch out for the tour buses,
and then there are all those tourists and gawkers. Sand and rock blow
on the course from the hills, and it's exceptionally windy. Panoramic
vistas abound.

Not much run off there. Looks like a great minimoto track. ;-)

 

Silverstone

Not enough detail to bother taking a screenshot of Brands or Knockhill
though, maybe one day the UK will be mapped more extensively?

Cheers.

Are flight activities suspended during race events? ;-)
