This crude drawing displayed here is a plan of the layout of my track. You can check the scale of 1m I have placed in the lower left of the paper. I know this figure isnīt clear enough for a complete analisys because itīs missing the gradation scale for elevations and slopes. At least you can check the basic course the cars may be travelling soon. You can notice the two yellow squares, these are crossings that will be placed in the middle of the village.The little squares and rectangles represent the buildings of this village (A). On the upper left (B) there will be the montainous part of the circuit and it may be about 40 to 50cm higher than the village level .There will be two stone bridges on the mountain and.this part is going to be covered with snow. At (C) is the downslope which will be very tight and cars wonīt be travelling side by side here. This is another tight passage (D); cars will cross the village in its most narrow alley. After that they will enter a tunnel which wonīt be entirely covered, then make a curve, get past two crossings and pass by the barbican building then return to the mountains again passing over a flyover bridge(E).

Your oppinion on how looked my layout made me believe it was good enough to be built. Some good friends around the world even told me it was an "elegant" layout. Thank you all who helped me taking this step forward!!
A new question awaits your vote!!
