The SimV Great Race / The Course: Sunset Strip!
Posted: Fri Dec 16, 2005 4:59 pmWelcome Racers!!!
The opening race in the season is soon to arrive. We hope you all have a good time but first, you've got to know where to go!! So here, Clipper and myself will show you.
1 ) Meet at the active runway at KSFO, with engines OFF please.
2 ) Takeoff from KSFO, on a heading of approximately 340. Once you reach the Stadium, you must fly INSIDE the staduim, passing below the top row of seats to complete obstacle #1, "Catch the Pass".
3 ) Upon leaving the stadium (with the ball
), follow a heading of 360 until you reach the Bay Bridge,crossing the bay. Pass under, ensuring that you go through THE GAP NEAREST TO THE ISLAND.
4 ) Turn hard left, heading 270, over to Alcatraz Prison. Perform the "Prison Break", a counter-clockwise barrel roll followed by a clockwise barrel roll.
5 ) Now head 250 degrees apx. to the Golden Gate Bridge, where you will perform the "Gold Rush".....flying under the span.
6 ) Now bank to heading 220 apx. for what should be the most challenging part of the course..."Hit The Deck".
You must fly just beyond the carrier USS Enterprise, turn and do a t+g on the carriers deck. Good luck with this one!
7 ) Make a dash to KHAF (heading of 150), and "Easy Does It" as you fly inverted over the runway.
8 ) Turn to a heading of 020 and "Climb On Home" over the hills. Head back to KSFO. Follow the heading of 020 until you approach KSFO.
9 ) Once you arrive at KSFO, you come to the final obstacle, "Shoehorn Finale."
T+G on RWY 10R, then climb out into the bay, and make a steep left turn, so you face RWY 28R.
This map shows the procedure at KSFO:
Land on RWY 28R. First one to do so gets 1st place and leads us into the season!
Here is a map of the complete circuit:
