Baypark Raceway 0.25

A very basic early version of an historic raceway that existed at Mt Manganui, New Zealand from 1967 to 1995. It's now disappeared beneath an housing estate. I used to visit the track as a 10 year old kid in the 1970's.

This is a very basic track but the track layout is accurate being based on geo-referenced historical aerial imagery. The real track also had camber on the corners and a dip in the track on the start / finish straight. This doen't it's completely flat.

I've posted this mainly if there's a Kiwi out there who might like a drive around old Baypark. As I'm enjoying this I've decided to continue with the project a while longer.

Cheers

Awesome mate! Spent a lot of my youth there. I hope someone jumps on board and adds the drag strip and Todd and Pollock speedway!
Great work!
Great effort considering the actual track is gone now - the corners and straights are as I remembered them - petty my dad is so forgetful now could of picked his brain - I have Sol weather looks better when run with broken clouds the grass is NZ green
Brings back memories use to go there in the 1970s - 1980s - my dad use to race Mark II Jaguars ,Valiant Chargers had a whole heap of cars but always remembered the Yanks and Aussies racing there PDL Mustangs and Camaro's lapping everyone remember a yank saying after winning the race I did get out of second,

thank you for this
I used to live in Papamoa, worked at the Mount
went to Baypark in the 80s and 90s
And then drove around the sub-division many times that replaced the track, with streets named after Keke Rosberg and NZ's Paul Radisich.
Cheers.

Do you prefer licensed hardware?

  • Yes for me it is vital

  • Yes, but only if it's a manufacturer I like

  • Yes, but only if the price is right

  • No, a generic wheel is fine

  • No, I would be ok with a replica
