Autodromo del Littorio, Roma, 1931 and 1932 version

[Protar]

I present to you my next project. A historic circuit, in disuse since the Second World War, in the center of Rome. A high-speed track with the particularity of a very tight curve. Built in 1931 inside the Rome airport of the time (and still used today for private flights only). I am gathering the material for a faithful reconstruction, I will keep you updated on the developments of this project.

If I can I would like to make both a version for GTR2 and GTLegends

Here is the link to a site only in Italian (you can translate the page with google) and a historical video of the first grand prix disputed.

Google Translate to the rescue:

Nobody seems interested, I have already done a test ride with the 1937 GPL MOD v. 1..0 on a very first draft of the circuit and I had a lot of fun !!!
However, I will continue to develop it. The big problem are the buildings, I'm trying to reproduce them as faithfully as possible from the historical photos but it's not at all simple !!! I'll keep you up-to-date.

This forum is mainly Euro-centric and they don't get on until later so just wait

Some screenshots where you can see the parabolic curve, a view of the track and the Tiber river from the embankment , and the recovery curve.

Cool I didn't realize there was actually a sim track being built

Thumbs up though that should be epic vintage racing
