Macau '67 WIP

I've always been a big fan of Macau's track layout but never dug the modern bad taste surroundings... Still a lot to do but meanwhile dig the construction site for the Lisboa Hotel, the very rural looking Melco hairpin, and the S.S. Macau under steam!

Lovely work and a great original idea.

Super, like it!

Like it, have you got any more gems hidden away on your hdd you could post

Now that is a Macau I can get into. Great job!

looks amazing!

I have to agree, it's great

Looks amazing, I'm always interested in more classic and historic tracks and this is one I never expected to see, so thanks!

Thanks guys! As I mentioned, there's still a lot to do to the track but I will of course post my modification when it's ready. (I'm literally working on hundreds of projects for my 1967 game but this one has been extra fun so hopefully I'll keep at it until finished).

Check out this cool onboard clip which has been very useful to me so far. Talk about a contrast to the modern day surroundings!

Wöouw, epic!

I'm also working on the 16 cars for the 1967 Macau GP which was run as a Formula Libre race in the '60s.

Here's a WIP of Albert Poon's Brabham BT21A based on Borek's Cooper T73 mod:



I have gathered some pics and YouTube videos from the race but could definitely use more sources. There's a Hong Kong based Macau GP website that I suspect have pics new to me but I'm denied access to it. The owner also has an FB page where I got some pics but I think there's more. Can anyone else access it? If so, it would be great to have any pics related to the 1967 GP collected and then uploaded somewhere.

Anyone managed to access the Hong Kong website?

Though I live not far from HK, I couldn't access it either, but these days the situation is HK is a bit troubled, this might explain that...

Yeah, I suspected that could be the case. Thanks for checking. Then it struck me that maybe the Wayback Machine had archived the website and indeed it had! Some very useful session results info including support races but unfortunately none of the photos show up.
