Suzuka

My favourite real life circuit¹.

We used big sheet of cardboard and books to build the slope up to 130R and made it almost full speed of course. I’m not sure it’s possible to recreate spoon properly at this scale but it sure looked good.

I’m a big fan of side by side racing and having this as a huge 2 lane meant cars were typically far apart on the circuit so not a huge success from that perspective.

1. Of the existing famous ones at least. The Montjuïc Barcelona city circuit is really evocative but there’s something about the overal shape of Arctic Circle Raceway that does it for me. ↩︎
