...is to spend it making an R/C track replica of all that, minus the track info. Le Mans, Paul Ricard, Monza, Assen, de los Funes and Old Hock will have a bypass section for the chicanes (the Dunlop corners on Le Mans will be fixed, too), Imola’s Tamburello will be recreated (oh, yes), and I’ll add the Bridge section to Silverstone, but other than that, it’s pretty much perfect.
Unpopular opinion: I dig Port Imperial and Norisring is bland.

Better yet - get enough land to build replicas of all of the tracks full-scale like this.

Also, the most boring and bland track on there (although it is very cool) is probably AVUS.

While it is boring, it’s very much perfect for top-speed runs.
AVUS: the Ultimate Drag Strip. You can do two simultaneous races there to spice it up.

Easier to do it on an island. Simply artificially fill in the highs and lows for the circuits with elevation changes.

Easiest to do it in the desert, though.
If you call the Norisring bland, what do you think of ‘Vegas, Darlington and Pocono? At least the Norisring has some actual corners. ;)

Desert? Nah. Wouldn’t get to fish or sail before and/or after racing
Darlington and Pocono aren’t * that * boring. Norisring, though, the fun stops there real quick.

Looks like a kart track, but with the hairpins, it might even be interesting to experience first-hand. Will report back once I’ve driven there. ;>

I shall concede defeat once you do drive the streets of Norisring.

It isn’t when you are driving it in a 600hp 1930s Streamliner capable of 240mph with zero downforce and mechanical grip.
