Quote from GTPlanet, nice to know.

I love Longford. It's sad that you can't drive the entire circuit anymore, since the bridges are all long gone and a major highway was plonked right on top of one of the best parts of the circuit (viaduct). Fair to say I was totally blown away when I found out the old Longford circuit was available for AC. Being a Tasmanian, it's easy to get used to the rest of the world not knowing a thing about this place, so finding both our 2 permanent closed circuits, and our greatest ever historic street circuit, have all been made for racing sims, is a pleasant surprise :). My 77 year old father had a gigantic grin on his face when he saw me driving old Brabhams and such at Longford. He said it's exactly how he remembers it, so that's mighty high praise for whoever made the track.

I've got Symmons Plains but what's the other one?
Yeah, what is the other one, I can't think of a 2nd track in Tasmania. ???

That's interesting comments about Longford.

Baskerville is well worth a trip too I think,  The layout is very cool how you can park your car and sit in it if you like and see the whole track from the viewing areas
