Race Track Design
Motorsport / Competition Use
Race Circuits
Purpose-built circuits for motor racing across a range of FIA and FIM grades. Primarily designed for competitive race events, these circuits can also be used for public track days and corporate events.
Street Circuits
We understand the intricacies involved with designing a circuit around city streets and what it takes to create a successful race event in the heart of a city.
Karting
Karting is a hugely popular form of motorsport, and we design circuits for both leisure and racing use whether it be ‘arrive-and-drive’ or competitive events run to CIK regulations.
Rallycross
Short tracks combining asphalt and gravel, and a unique ‘joker lap’ loop for quick format racing. Rallycross tracks are often integrated into the design of a permanent race circuit.
Drag Strips
We can design drag strips for a variety of lengths and uses, from short strips for supercars through to longer strips for top fuel high performance dragsters, designed to both NHRA and FIA guidelines.
Driving Course Design
Automotive / Non-Competition Use
