    It all depends on what the customer asks for, doesn't it? It seems Tavo was very specific about what he wanted.

    I think you take that stadium section and re-locate it to the area where the track devides into two and just bypass it as in the last picture, however I wouldn't want to loose the high speed nature of a right hand version of Turkey's turn 8.

    Latest release from Full Throttle:

    I have to ask The Britt’s that are in the know if "Graham Lake–Grange" is a great asset, as I've heard what a challenge getting in and out of Silverstone is?

    It starting to look like this thing may actually happen!

    According to a statement released by Full Throttle, Kimley-Horn "brings tremendous experience to the project having developed traffic management plans for Texas Motor Speedway, the new Cowboys Stadium, Lone Star Park and Houston's Dynamo Park. Graham Lake–Grange, based in the U.K., has developed successful traffic management plans for 13 F1 Grand Prix events at Silverstone [in the U.K.] as well as over 100 large-scale public events."

    and it is, with a very big, high quality construction firm.....

    now if that big sweeping turn (#2?) going down from the top of the hill, were to suddenly starting going off camber with a decreasing radius at the end....that might be a challenge, of truly passing someone less brave at the beginning of the sweep, but then having to walk a tightrope at the end to avoid being stuck in the dirt

    If you've got a couple of minutes spare there's a video report from the construction site in Austin on CNN.com
