Dunno about the turn numbering - it's a bit of a dog's breakfast. :roll:

Grand Prix Circuit 3.93km

GP North 2.8km

GP South 1.8km

GP South looks like what was used for the 'driver training' day VW held a couple of years ago and would seem to be the track for handling rather than straight-line power racers.

It would be great if the 'new' park offered proper motorsport karts; is there any possibility?

LOL
I can just see the flags getting confused what corner they are even sitting on!!!

Why the change in name though???

It seems the GP South circuit only has limited run off areas.

I'm guessing they're trying to get people to think of the location as multiple motorsport options rather than just being a single race track.

I hope they can run both those tracks (GP North and South) at the same time safely.

That's certainly the plan - from what I've seen of the tracks, it shouldn't be a problem. Apparently it'll be pretty cheap to hire the south circuit too.
