Guess the circuit

[Tom Castellani]

This is a motor racing themed game I thought of a while ago. It's pretty simple, someone posts a screenshot from an onboard camera and everyone else has to guess what circuit it is. It works like normal forum question games, whoever guesses right posts the next image.

Only one answer per post and no double posting.

Tips:

* In terms of difficulty you can pick a hard image but don't be stupid about it (For example, part of Le Mans at night). Just use your judgement.

* You can crop the image a bit if you like and difficult is fine but as long as you think it can be got it's ok. If one takes too long or no one can guess it then I might well request another one.

* Remember to name the file something generic! The last thing you want is people finding the answer in the image file name.

* YouTube is a good place to grab images since it had lots of videos and is accessible to all. If you pause at the bit you want you can use Print Screen button on the keyboard and then paste it into either Photoshop or even Microsoft Paint to crop down and save. There are plenty of good free places to upload images such as Imageshack if you don't have a webspace.

Monza, second Chicane



My turn:

Looks like Les Combes at Spa.

I guess it's Mika following Shoey to make that memorable pass round Zonta's BAR (a lap later).

In case I'm right (which I am) here's mine:

[wesley123]

Looks like Suzuka

[ernos5]

yer maybe suzuzki i thought too, then i though spa-francorchamps.

but i think it's heidfields lap(s) of the Nordschleife? am i right?

[Keir]

I agree, that is almost certainly Heidfield's lap of the Nordschleife.
For an extra geek point, it looks like Breidscheid.

Man, I like threads like these. Is cba's pic confirmed as Spa yet?

yup its spa.

[Tom Castellani]

Just waiting for Modbaraban's confirmation.

NEW RULE: Only one answer per post and no double posting obviously.

If it is confirmed as the Nordschleife then ernos5 can have it this time but after that the new rule is in effect


For confirmations it would probably be a good idea to edit the image post with something like;

COMPLETE: [User name] - (Track name)

The correct answerer can also edit their post with an image. That will save crowding with lots of posts and confusion.

[modbaraban]

ernos5, it's your turn now. That's Bierdscheid corner of Nordschleife.

PS: I hope everyone sticks to Tom's new rules. That should

[ernos5]

okay, here you go guys hope it isn't too hard

[Tom Castellani]

Albert Park, Melbourne, Australia?

[Tomba]

Magny Cours, France

[wesley123]

It cant be france due to tobacco advertisement on the ferrari.

I think its Spa, i believe the malmedy curve after the long straight.

[PNSD]

Spa? No cant be... My head says Magny but because its been the choice already I am going to say Hungary.
