| Hey, Will, it's Fclass again. Could you do an svg map of Guia Circuit and Bucharest Ring in Wikipedia? Guia Circuit is a motorsport venue in China. Bucharest Ring is a motorsport venue in Romania.

| The Bucharestring is running around the Parliamentary Palace of Romania, one of the largest buildings in thw world. When using the time traveling otion you can see a picture showing the track in preparation. Best thing is to use this tie travel option to see what the track's like, If you'd do this at Suzuka you could find an unclouded image too. The final turn is a roundabout like turn.
The Guia circuit is similar to a combination of Monaco and Hockenheim. It has a hugely long front straight with two kinks in it. On the other side of the track there's this slow, narrow section with one of the worlds slowest hairpins. It is used this weekend so you should be able to find enough information. It's one of the few street circuits with permanent pit facilities making it not temporary but semi-permanent.Added (2009-November-21, 11:14:41 Am)

Here you can see what the final corner is like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2RVJlGRlsg&feature=related

| I'll look into them when I get a chance. Snetterton in England has a VERY complex kart track that is taking a long time. I have layouts going from A-GX already and I am only half done (give or take).

that's an RC car track. Atleast 4 metres must be too narrow for karts. You're wasting your time here.

| I figured it was more for entertainment purposes as I saw nothing resembling pit lane. There are a lot of Kart tracks here in the US that you can rent a car for a few laps. Sometimes, when it is busy enough, they put out a half dozen cars or so at once and run a simulated 5-6 lap race. The length typically depends on the length of the track.

| Guia Circuit doesn't appear to be doable. Between a fuzzy image looking through clouds, tall buildings blocking my view of roads, and my inability to figure out where parts of the track are, you are better off asking someone else.

My name is Will Pittenger. I have been making KMZ sets for Google Earth for a long time. After I starting making those, I wanted overlays for my sets. I was unsatisfied with the accuracy of the images available at Wikimedia Commons. So I started making my own with Inkscape and uploading them. Then I needed a place for anyone that liked my KMZ sets and/or maps to find others. For a while, a simple blog sufficed. But, once I started getting requests, I knew I needed something better. This site is the result. You are welcome to set up an account. Some activities are for registered users only. Take your time poking around and let me know what you think.
