02Overview

What Guangdong International Circuit is like to drive.

The full circuit layout at Guangdong International Circuit is 1.75 miles with 9 corners worth setting up for. A generic track-day car in our model brakes hard 7 times a lap and is at full throttle for about 44% of the distance; the longest straight runs roughly 1640 ft.

8 of the corners are slow (under 50 mph in the model), 0 are fast (over 75 mph). There are hairpins where exit speed matters more than entry. The corner notes below come from the mapped geometry, not from local knowledge; we’ll add a researched guide for Guangdong International Circuit later.

Model speed (generic track-day car)

The speed trace is a model, not a real lap: a generic track-day car (about 1.1 g of cornering grip, 1 g braking, 150 W/kg) driven on the computed line through an assumed 12 m wide track. Use it to see where the braking zones and flat-out sections are, not to predict your speeds. Elevation data for this track isn’t loaded yet.

04Corner by corner

The corners at Guangdong International Circuit.

TRACK’s own corner numbering (C1, C2…), found from the curvature of the mapped centerline. It isn’t the official turn numbering. Each diagram shows the computed line: the minimum-curvature path through an assumed 12 m wide track. It’s a geometric starting point. Your instructor’s line comes first.

  1. APEXTURN-INEXITBRAKE
    C1

    Slow right-hander

    ↱ RightslowchicaneTRACK numbering

    A slow right-hand chicane that turns about 105°, tightening to a radius of roughly 11 m (36 ft). The model car brakes for about 170 m (558 ft), from 127 to 33 mph. The computed line turns in from the left side, takes a late apex, about 5 m after the corner’s geometric apex, and lets the car run out to the left on exit.

    Medium right-hander

    ↱ RightmediumessesTRACK numbering

    A medium right-hand esses that turns about 34°, tightening to a radius of roughly 78 m (256 ft). The model car barely brakes here, carrying about 71 mph: a lift or a confident throttle balance.

  2. 2Confirm the lineThe start/finish line here is estimated. When you’re stopped, TRACK shows it on the map: accept it or tap to move it. You’re never asked while driving.
  3. 3Laps, timed retroactivelyLaps you drove before confirming are timed from the recorded trace, so you don’t lose your first session.
  4. 4Go furtherSync a GoPro for video with telemetry and let TRACK Engineer point out where the time is. External 10–25 Hz GPS receivers for tighter sectors are awaiting hardware validation.

FAQ

Guangdong International Circuit, answered.

How long is Guangdong International Circuit?

The mapped centerline of Guangdong International Circuit is 1.74 mi (2.81 km) in OpenStreetMap. Published lengths are measured differently, so small differences are normal.

Which direction does Guangdong International Circuit run?

OpenStreetMap doesn’t record a direction for the main layout at Guangdong International Circuit. Venues sometimes run both ways. TRACK takes the direction from your first laps.

Can I time laps at Guangdong International Circuit with my phone?

Yes, with the TRACK iPhone app (beta). It recognises Guangdong International Circuit and the layout you’re driving from GPS, then times laps and sectors. A phone’s GPS is good for lap times; an external 10–25 Hz receiver tightens sector splits.

Where is the start/finish line at Guangdong International Circuit?

TRACK estimates the line from the mapped geometry (usually beside the pit lane, or on the longest straight). It isn’t verified on site, so the app asks you to confirm or move it before timing your first session here.

How do I find track days at Guangdong International Circuit?

Clubs and organizers list HPDE, track days and club races on MotorsportReg. The venue’s own calendar lists its events too. TRACK doesn’t list events itself.

Where can I stay near Guangdong International Circuit?

This page lists hotels, campgrounds, restaurants, fuel and parts stores near Guangdong International Circuit from OpenStreetMap, with straight-line distances. Book early for big event weekends.
