Top Gear Test Track

[darkwar854]

I don't believe anyone actually attempted to create a Top Gear Test Track that is an exact 1.75 miles. It's nearly impossible to make it the accurate shape and size. The GTA map doesn't allow for it. But, I have found a way to make it as close as possible.

The closest you can get to the actual Top Gear Test Track!

 

 

I believe that it's the only track that retains the overall shape, and still has a similar length. The real track is 1.75 miles long, this one is 1.70 miles long. I tried everything I could to get the .5 miles, but I couldn't do anything.

Damn, you're on Xbox so I won't be able to check it out. I made the track in the industrial area - it's a bit more than half the size, which is unfortunate, but I am very satisfied with how I was able to recreate the corners. Your layout looks good from what I can tell though!

Yeah, I know about the one on the industrial area. It's a pretty good replica, but I wanted to make one as close to the same size as I could. The hammerhead isn't as good as it could of been, but the road wasn't big enough to do anything else. I'll see if I can put some pics of it up here for you.

Sorry for bad quality, but I don't have any other way of taking pictures.

Looks good! The one you're talking about isn't mine, I haven't driven that one, but I've seen it.

Then there must be a few in the same area. But if only we could use more barriers and objects. Then I could make it look a lot better. I sure hope there will be a 200 barrier limit on next gen...

Yessir, I've seen a few...in fact, someone had accused me of copying theirs, even though I made mine before, and my layout was much different...

 

And I completely agree! If they increased the limit, I imagine we would be able to find some spots that are open enough that we could completely build multiple curves with the barriers.

 

If they just let us on either of the main airports it would fix everything!

Dark, i have a top gear track as well. The link is present in my GTA recreations thread. It is pretty accurate in terms of size and outline. If your on ps3 ill check out yours.

There is more than 1 top gear track?

 

I assume you me and sileighty all are referring to the same figure 8 track. I never watch the show but i assume its the same as the 1 shown in GT5. Oh ok if youre on the xbox nvm then.

 

I think you would still be able to view the layout of it on social club though.

Top Gear UK, USA and Australia. I didn't really notice any similarities with your track though.

No? Not at all? It has all of the corners. 99% outline as the UK track. Maybe because its a bit zoomed in I guess.

Oh, there's no crossover. That's it.

Oh, there's no crossover. That's it.

It does have the crosssover though. Its just differently scaled is all. Lets face it. The GTA V map doesnt allow us to get the perfect size, accuracy and angle of any Gran Turismo track. On the UK track where scale is obviously 1:1, the crossover takes part on the same stretch of road. It is only at Wilson where they intersect only once and thats it. The rest of the crossover is just that they pass by each orher very closely.

 

Cyrus's has a smaller scale so his crossover is actually 1 piece of road (always intersecting). Mine intersects a bit during wilson and the roads being to diverge from each other. Thats only due to the scale. Its just my crossover is larger than normal. You have the closest scale to the original than our two.

 

Its a shame i cant try yours out. It looks really nice.

I guess it does. It's just a bit bigger.
