Brooklands Racing Simulation
(Click here for YouTube video link.)
Brooklands was the first Formula 1 Racing circuit in the UK, and although most of it has been built over since it's closure in the 40s, a museum now exists at the site to preserve what remains.
Whilst working at XPI Simulation I made 3D elements for the Brooklands Simulator project, which is now housed in the Brooklands Museum. I made much of the Motoring Village, which still exists at the site in Weybridge, Surrey, near where I live; and also placed all the trees (hundreds of them!) in the simulation. My favourite bit was the steam engine I built in 3D, which trundles past the track, which unfortunately is barely visible in this video.
Visit the museum to have a go on the simulator yourself!
Thanks for reading!
