HISTORY:

The "Stadtparkrennen - Rund um das Scheibenholz" was a race on public roads in East Germany. This track for F2-cars was from 1950-1958 in the downtown of Leipzig.
The circuit was around the "Clara Zetkin"-Park and the horse racing track "Scheibenholz".
Now drive a lap on this track: You start on a wide highway and drive to the section "Kurve der Jugend". After a left turn you see on the left side the city park and on the right side the downtown from Leipzig. On the end of this straight you've the section "Erich-Zeigner-Kurve", a left turn to the "Anton-Bruckner-Allee", a long straight interrupt from two islands with flower-beds. On this long straight you drive the first time across the river "Elster-Flutbett".
After the second island you've the section "Werner-Seelenbinder-Kurve". A left turn on a small park road "Nonnenweg" through the city park "Clara Zetkin". On this straight you see on the right side the memorial of "Clara Zetkin". In front of the section "Kurve der Freiheit" you reach the top speed of the circuit with about 260 km/h (160 mph).
On the end of the park road you drive through the section "Wald-Kurve", a really tricky section. ;-)
Now you drive the second time across the river "Elster-Flutbett" and also the river "Pleisse". After the bridge you see on the left side the horse racing track "Scheibenholz".
The last long left turn to start/finish is section "Ziel-Kurve". A good lap time without any crash is all about 1:36.
