Top Gear Test Track

[Archimedes]

Double post.

So, here are some more pictures:




This one is my shot at making on of the stigs turns.. what do you think? It's a little hard to take at speed, but that's to be expected I suppose.

I think you're supposed to slow down for that type of turn.

That last one is "Hammerhead", it's designed to slow you down. It also has a tyre wall in it to make it clear that you're supposed to turn, and that you want to slow down. It's worth noting that is an actual test track, designed to test the ability of different cars, so it isn't actually for high-speed racing.

The official BBC Top Gear website has an interactive map showing you in fairly good detail each of the corners of the map, plus some info about them, and a "Stig's-eye-view" of going around them.

Does the test track have a hairpin in it?

Does the test track have a hairpin in it?

Not really. Hammerhead sort of features a mini-hairpin (but you're generally slowed down on it), while Gambon (which is almost a perfect 90° turn) is probably the dodgiest turn on the track as you're normally at speed coming into it and racing to get to the finish line.

So what do you think about it? Should I leave hammerhead as it is?

This could be the best Blockland car show....
