A few days ago, I posted my London street circuit which was the first street circuit I made in Google Earth. Now I'm ready to show you some others. The way I design my street circuits is also explained in that post. These tracks are very much designed to be video game street circuits and not ones for real life racing.
*US\*
Boston - 2.60 miles (4.19km) - This is probably the most reasonably lengthed circuit of the whole bunch. Boston is also the most "Un-American" urban city in the US in terms of layout as it abandons the typical grid layout, which allows for easier street circuit design.
Chicago - 5.10 miles (8.19km) - At 5 miles long, this is the second longest US circuit I made. Don't let this statistic intimidate you because this track is FAST. This track is all about speed with its long straights, broken by tight city corners.
Las Vegas - 6.00 miles (9.66km) - Reaching exactly 6 miles, this is the longest US circuit (and second longest circuit overall) in this post. Just like Chicago though, this track is all about speed. It's even faster than Chicago, blazing through long straights amongst the casino buildings. Even better driving it at night with lights everywhere.
Los Angeles - 3.02 miles (4.86km) - I actually had to turn 3D Buildings off so you'd be able to see everything. This track is much more technical than the previous two, where the occasional straights are broken by a series of tricky city corners traveling across the highway outskirts.
Miami - 4.10 miles (6.58km) - This is a fast city track, with a fair few long straights and a highway stretch. It's much more about speed in the first half, then becoming more technical in the second half.
New York - 3.75 miles (6.04km) - Ah, New York. This layout should be familiar to anyone who's played GT4 or any of the old Forza Motorsport games. It blazes through Times Square, and lands on the highway-like roads of Central Park, providing a fast but tricky section of corners.
Philadelphia - 3.53 miles (5.68km) - Probably my least favorite of the US circuits (and of the whole post), this track is very angular with several sharp turns, and drives through a tunnel beneath the convention center.
*ELSEWHERE\*
London - 4.12 miles (6.64km) - This was the track I posted a few days ago. The track starts off by driving around the roundabout at Buckingham Palace. In fact, the entire track utilizes several different roundabouts.
Paris - 3.12 (5.02km) - A mostly fast street circuit, characterized by several angular turns of varying intensities. You even get a decent view of the Eiffel Tower driving across the second bridge.
Rio de Janeiro - 4.56 miles (7.35km) - This circuit is characterized with a LOT of elevation change. The circuit has you climbing up a hill covered with urban buildings, only to go back down through a series of tight, narrow switchback hairpins. And also once again, high speed!
Tokyo - 8.59 miles (13.82km) - This is the longest track in this post, and one of my personal favorites of the bunch. Its long length comes from using a very notable piece of Japanese highways as the basis of the track. Perhaps it will be familiar to some of you?
