Silverstone GP circuit

BoggissimoBoggissimo
in Track library
I'm going to be on track at Silverstone this weekend and it looks like the track in the library still uses the old (pre-2010) start/finish line between Woodcote and Copse corners. The Google map in the background is also still from that time! Does anyone have an accurate location for the current start/finish line by the Wing pit complex between Club and Abbey corners?

If not, I'll edit when I'm there, but not sure whether I will get a chance to stand still on the actual start/finish line. Since the background image doesn't have the line visible I can't just set it by eye.

    You're correct, looks like the start/finish should be about where the "Club" split is. I didn't realise this at all, even though there was some changes done for the 2010 layout :)

    Yep, I have just renamed the Club and Start/Finish from the library map and swapped the types over.

    I've just heard back from Silverstone on Twitter that the actual GPS coordinates for the start/finish are 52.069220, -1.022270
    Is there any way to set traps based on coords (or check the coords of a trap that's already set)?

    Excellent. I've changed the Silverstone GP and Silverstone International start line to those coordinates. Make sure you delete and then re-download the track from the library. Notice, it might take an hour for it to update in the library.

    Got the new one now, thanks for updating!

    It turned out that even though we were on the 'new' circuit layout, we were using the 'old' pits and start/finish line so I switched the traps back again on my local copy!

    Ok, I'll make the old pit location available too.
