I thought this would be fun and interesting..... Post Pictures and Links to World Famous Circuits, ie F1, Indy, MotoGP, GT....etc Using Google Maps/Sattelite, you can select the pictures using Ctrl-Alt-PrntScreen on your keyboard, and save the image (.jpg/.bmp) in Microsoft Paint and Microsoft Imagaing, and then post the picture file and post the Link! Its a great way to see the circuits which we've never been to..... I'll start by posting Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal, Canada. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=Circuit+Gilles-Villeneuve,+Montr%C3%A9al,+Montr%C3%A9al,+Quebec+H3C,+Canada&layer=&ie=UTF8&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=40.001301,65.830078&z=14&ll=45.507881,-73.524456&spn=0.034647,0.096989&t=k&om=1 Image Unavailable, Please Login

!!! Attention Post the address links too! It would be nice to access the actual page..... When on google.maps click "link to page"
So not to steal the conversation from F1 tracks but we have a ton of different ones listed on Trackpedia. Click the push pin on either to do to the page or you can zoom in the map on the screen. If you have others I dont have feel free to add them. http://www.trackpedia.com/wiki/Tracks_in_North_America http://www.trackpedia.com/wiki/Tracks_in_Europe http://www.trackpedia.com/wiki/Tracks_in_South_America http://www.trackpedia.com/wiki/Tracks_in_Asia http://www.trackpedia.com/wiki/Tracks_in_Oceania
Just a question in regards to Oregon, but why are Coos Bay International raceway and Oregon Raceway Park just empty fields in the images? Are they non-existent anymore or are the locations just off? Thanks,
Either they aren't available on the satellite images or the lat/long are off. I think that Oregon Raceway Park is still in development and just starting to be graded thus would not show up. I have never been able to find Coos Bay. Any suggestions on where its at?
