Monza 1966 - Full Course adding chicane

[susanthedeath2]

I have a request
about Monza 1966 - Full Course
before the second bend of the oval there is a chicane
the layout with this chicane was used in 1000 km Monza until 1969
chicane is passable
AI line should be changed, so that they drive through chicane
could anyone do it?
this will change the character of the track very much, because the chicane is quite narrow, so you have to overcome it slowly
Thanks in advance

I would like this too. Im sure it is possible.

Should be possible even without making changes to the original track. Thus it would be "legit".

From memory, weren't there 2 chicanes in this layout? Anyone got any more specific info for the chicane(s) used in these years?

That's what i found
I think there were 2 chicanes

The second chicane (Rettito Levante) exists, not sure about the first one

 

[susanthedeath2]

the first chicane was located a bit before Curva Grande
you have to set up some straw and that's all

the second one is almost ready

Ok those images confuse me.

This is the bus stop in sim. it is on the backside of the circuit.

This is on the front straight and there is only the Junior course entrance and no sign of any bus stop.

You can make a 1/2 1000km race

the first chicane is just straw on the road

but this image doesn't make sense. This is on the front straight. The bus stop in sim is on the back side of the track. You can obviously see the red and blue cars heading to T1 on the left. We don't have this setup in sim.

you're right!
I did not pay attention to it
it really does not make sense

According to GE the bus stop we have in sim was there.

 

[susanthedeath2]

maybe it was destroyed,
the tribune is now standing there

So my only guess would be they had bus stops on both ends at one time?

Yes I think so,
maybe this straw one was only in 1965 (then this layout was introduced and a picture was taken

So sadly we don't have the second bus stop. It could be easily grafted in but then it would no longer be "legit" as you would have to modify the original model to do that. Kind of a sad oversight on kunos part if it was there in 1966.

According to this 1966 was the first year they were added.

This photo is labeled at 1966 as well.

I wonder why they did one of two chicanes

Bingo, which is from 1967 onwards
