Hi all,

I'm looking for a high res outline of the following race circuits:

Spa
Monaco
Le Mans (full track)
Hungaroring
Silverstone
Nurbergring Nordschliefe
Castle Combe
Imola
Interlagos
Catalunya
Monza

It's for a personal project and they will be blown up to a fair size so need to be high quality, and all the same format. I have found some various websites but they are usually quite low resolution.

If anyone can help, can you please send me a message? I don't really want to post on here what they will be used for but will tell anyone who can help me.

Thanks all

Sarah

Just an idea - maybe do a search on the circuit name followed by .svg (i.e. "silverstone .svg") - a quick Google seems to show that there are plenty about... If you can use them (there's plenty of open source software about such as Inkscape to edit them to your requirements) it should rid you of the resolution problem! smile

I used Wiki when I needed the same. I had to alter/adapt some, but if you look at the line under some of them, they will give you higher res versions.

ETA - just seen your comment about same format. I couldn't find that, so i just photoshopped them all black. When I say 'I', I mean the designer chap in the office that can use such black magic wizardry.

Have you thought about finding the circuits on Google Earth, zooming in and then outlining them yourself? Might work.
