Hello, new to the crew. I have been creating circuits for awhile. Most are not at the level of ones I have seen here, but quality oval tracks are lacking. I am not really a NASCAR fan, but I like them for the simplicity and putting up to 30 cars on such small tracks can be fun. I recommend racing with cars that are not the easiest to handle, and stock spoilers. I know slipstream is frowned upon, but it is a good option for these races. These tracks are not quite the wide open/easy passing/no skill necessary oval tracks I have seen.
Sandyville Speedway
This is by far the best of the three. I had been experimenting with banked turns and was very happy with how this turned out. This is inspired by Martinsville Speedway with a paperclip shape. We have pits, grandstands, and it even fits 30 cars. 0.74 length (3 times around equals 1 lap)

Eagle Raceway
This track is a little longer and I would compare it to Richmond with the tri-oval. I was still learning with this one but it turned out well. Fits 21 cars if I remember correctly. Banked turns/tri-oval. Pits. There is an issue with the pits. It takes 3 go arounds to make one lap, on the third go around if you pit you will skip the finish line and will be even more behind. This was not something I could fix without blowing up and starting over, so I saved it how it is and created Sandyville Speedway (above). Probably not a good option for races with required pit stops.

At the Airport
This is an oval around the top level of the airport pickup/dropoff area. I created this long before cunning stunts, and updated it. Previously, turns 3 and 4 were in that really small one lane section. It created its own fun challenges, but I did away with that. It has been widened, and turns 3 and 4 are now banked. I would compare this to Darlington, an oval with completely different turns. Not a replica by any means, but its the closest comparison I can think of. Also this is my first experiment with banked turns.
Pits are included, but are very small.
