Why no race at the Spa track ? It was built 20 years ago for just this kind of thing. I would have thought history compels us to race where tradition has seen so many races (hilariously) held before.

Oh man, with the way that thing handles, hilarity ensues as soon as the flag drops. Players be making corners out of the straightaway.

That area of the map is all great for racing.

Back in the early days of Spa, the circuit was actually a public road loop where the track is today. That's the Spa circuit that's in the WWIIOL map. Modeled after the real thing, with the caveat that there were limitations on the kinds of corners we had to work with.

Oh I know I have run many a sqd night race there.

We expanded a lot over time and used more than just opless.

That area works for air races as well.

We also raced boats.......

The most hilarious race I ever conducted at Spa was everyone in 232's. Rear wheel steering never really took on in Grand Prix, but it was trialled at one time. Wasn't as funny as ours was.
