		This will not be the first time Shane has competed at the 3.2km Adelaide circuit, having competed there in 2000 in a Saloon Car, in which he finished 3rd overall.
		Shane notes that Adelaide is a place of high curbs and many bumps, however it is a track which he rates very highly.
		“Adelaide is a street circuit in design, however the layout of the track and its surroundings makes it very similar to a traditional race circuit, due to the wide run-off areas and width of the track.

	Grand Prix Racing - the whole story
		Adelaide was chosen as the venue and a street circuit was set up on the public roads in and around the Victoria horse racing track.
		Adelaide proved rather unique as a street circuit, in that is was rather quick, with long straights interspersed with slow right-angled turns and fast kinks.
		The last race to be staged on the circuit was 1995 when Damon Hill came home two laps ahead of the rest of the field, including team-mate Coulthard who managed to plough his Williams into the pit-wall.

		Adelaide is host to a popular street circuit that takes place over wide and bumpy roads through the city’s streets and parkland.
		The final corner of the Adelaide circuit is another hairpin and very similar to the previous hairpin.
		Approaching from the left side of the circuit and braking at the Holden signage to the left should set-up the late apex required through the hairpin.

	Pro Race Driver Driving Instruction FAQ - IGN FAQs
		The circuit itself is built on a steep hillside, with the Paddock area and the Pit Straight located at the lowest elevation of the course.
		What makes this circuit so difficult is that the most technical section consists of many tight and fast-approaching twists and turns combined with the continual ascents and descents in the highly-scenic mountains, so that when drivers finally exit the mountainous section, their nerves are extremely frayed.
		This circuit is also somewhat rough on brakes in long races, in part due to the traffic jams (especially at the first corner at the beginning of a race).

		Adelaide can be rather heavy on fuel depending on your driving style, so watch your fuel consumption in practice and overfill your tank until you get used to how much fuel you use in different length races.
		Brief History The Adelaide GP street circuit was used as the first Australian Formula 1 venue between 1985 and 1995.
		One of the reasons Adelaide was a favourite venue, was the small scale of the city and the parklands that entirely surround the central part of the city and inner city residential precincts.

	10 Tenths Motorsport - More on Auckland Street Circuit
		Street racing is alright but it takes away rounds for perment tracks which takes money away from Australian tracks which need money to keep the track going or tracks haven't had a round for years and are worthy of a race.
		Also the nature of street circuits is such that you don't get much of a view of the circuit when spectating and they are too narrow to allow good clean racing.
		It is, or perhaps was until recently, the longest circuit in the Southern Hemisphere, but a question mark remains over the suitability of the virtually-zero percent camber extension which was built largely on the grounds/backing of Toyota NZ to utilise as a development facility.

		The circuit snaked its way all through popular streets and city avenues, where people could join in the fun, and businesses could profit from higher than normal patronage, just like they do in Surfers, but with one key difference.
		The streets in Adelaide are twice as wide as Surfers (yes, twice) and the racing was always superb because of it.
		Adelaide’s organizers and government, were convinced that their race was safe, but they were caught with their guard down when officials from Melbourne, Adelaide’s arch-rival, offered F1 Supremo Bernie Ecclestone more money, a lot more money, and successfully stole the event right out from under Adelaide's nose.
