Description
Racetrack layout for the fictional "Ottawa International Raceway".

The 4.8 km (3 mile) track is designed with the spectator in mind.

The stands are positioned for maximum viewing exposure. For example, fans siting in the front stretch Grandstand can easily see a quarter mile straight right in front of them, followed by a very wide u-turn (with one of the best overtaking opportunities), leading into the front stretch quarter-mile straight, followed by turns 1, 2, and 3, and a portion of track behind the Paddock area. Compare this with many other road course tracks that offer fans sitting in the front stretch only a view of front stretch and one or two turns.

Spectators sitting in the back-stretch stands can easily see the entire south portion of the racetrack, which includes 9 turns of various widths and driver difficulty, and several straights.

The entire track also features a very wide road (narrowest 15 m (50 ft), widest 25 m (85 ft)) for many overtaking opportunities, and fast speeds.

Ottawa International Raceway has luxurious spectator seats (no benches), private VIP booths, and is completely a first-class facility with a very long pit road.

The track includes a large trackside Recreational Vehicle parking area with superb view of the course from any position. Adjacent is a tent camping area, for visitors who wish to camp during entire event weekends.
