Ever hear of "Autopolis"? It's a racetrack in Japan
You might have not heard about this track. They have only a couple top-level motorsports events. They tried to land Formula 1, but failed and went bankrupt in the process. The circuit was considered too remote due to the distance from hotels. Fortunately, Google Earth had hi-res imagery here despite the "remote" location.

I have included an overlay, two track configurations, and turn placemarks for each turn. Bonus: I found a go-kart track with another 11 layouts.

Update: Sepang
As promised, I have included a new overlay, distances, and even a Kart Track that is part of the same company.

Update: Istanbul Park
I have added a new overlay, distance measurements, and a polygon for what might be a valid track layout.

Update: Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez
New version has an overlay and track configurations for each possible layout. I have also adjusted the position of the turn placemarks.

Racing on a speedway that isn't: Fuji
Originally, this track was going to be a speedway and nothing more. But that changed just after the one turn of the speedway was built. The turn remained, but the course became a road course. After some Formula 1 crashes, the speedway part was removed. Now, the name is the only part of the original design left.

I included an overlay, track layouts for several different tracks, and more.

Update: Imola
I have created a SVG for Wikipedia that I turned into an overlay. I have also added distances and one extra track layout (skips Turn 16).

Update: Albert Lake Park Street Racing Circuit in Melborne, Australia
I saw that Wikipedia had only a PNG for their track map. So I went to GE to get a screen shot of the layout and found how out of date it was. It didn't even have a length. It does now! I also adjusted the position of a couple turns in the track polygon. And, of course, I added an overlay based on the above mentioned image.

The Ain-Diab overlay has been replaced
The new image is based on a SVG I created for Wikipedia. I also spun everything around to put the paddock area at the bottom.

I have replaced one of the Adelaide overlays with my own image
Wikipedia needed an SVG to replace on of the ones I used. So my GE set got a new overlay out of that. smile

Zolder
Don't mistake this for some of my better efforts. The resolution at Zolder in GE wasn't very good. It was better than at some other tracks, but still bad. It was just good enough for me to provide something. That includes an overlay and two track layouts.
