The board of the Westhill Circuit has invested heavily in creating a state of the art environment for racers of any type. The main tracks provide fast and wide turns, spiced up with interesting chicanes and the widest, most beautiful finish straight in S2 with a blind first corner. Recently two karting tracks have been constructed – one small, one large - providing a challenge for even the fittest of racers.
Starting with version 0.6H (released on 2 Apr 2015), Westhill gained a single alternative racing track, two configurations for kart racing and a car park configuration. The renaming of Westhill International might be a source of confusion: before 0.6H, being the only Westhill configuration, International had the short codename WE1. Since 0.6H, the new National track config usurped WE1, and International was renamed to WE2.
Configurations
National (WE1)
Length: 4.4 km (2.7 mi)
The shorter version of the International configuration, with a blind downhill corner when exiting the International part. It provides a nice racing environment especially for slower cars. Introduced in 0.6H, when the already existing International config, previously WE1, became WE2.
International (WE2)
Length: 5.8 km (3.6 mi)
The 5.8 km track, situated in rural England, provides fast and wide turns, spiced up with two interesting chicanes and the widest and most beautiful finish-straight in S2 with a "no look" turn 1. Most parts of the track are very fast. The undulating track is definitely made for the faster cars. Called as WE1 up to version 0.6G, WE2 starting with version 0.6H.
Car Park (WE3)
Length: N/A
A vast parking area located at the far end of the circuit. Roughly rectangular in shape and sized about 750m x 210m.
Karting (WE4)
Length: 0.5 km (0.31 mi)
A small karting track, which provides fun racing with the MRT cars.
Karting National (WE5)
Length: 1.3 km (0.81 mi)
A bigger version of the Karting configuration, with slightly faster corners, while keeping its narrow track width. Door-to-door racing guaranteed.
Surrounding area
On open layouts the enviroment beyond the race track is accessible. The parking areas, access roads and other asphalt or grass areas can be used to build new routes or autocross courses. This is explained on the page about autocross.
