CZE - CZECH REPUBLIC
KARLOVA STUDÁNKA
Description This is probably the oldest circuit (not a hill climb track) used for motor racing event on territory of Czech Republic. It hosted 1st Czechoslovak Tourist Trophy, both motorcycle and car race (each class starting on its own - motorcycles up to 250 ccm 10 laps, 350 and 500 ccm 14 laps, cars up to 750 ccm 7 laps, 1100 ccm 10 laps).
The event was considered failure because of low spectators numbers, the conclusion was the track is placed in a too distant area, so the Masaryk Circuit near Brno was proposed in following years as racing venue instead.
Location Karlova Studánka
T - Moravskoslezský kraj - Moravskoslezsko
Location Start/finish line and pits were at Karlova Studánka The layout remains as public roads until today untouched.

Due to technical problems, temporarily it’s no longer possible to see the circuits on Google Maps embedded in the current page.
This feature will be restored as soon as I figure out how to do (any help would be appreciated!)

See this track layout with Google Earth - milermeter.com
(milermeter.com can be used in your browser, without installing anything; Google Earth is a program that must be installed in your computer)
(Map shown here above can show at the same time all eventual layouts drawn. If you want to see only some of them, please go to Google Maps or Google Earth, by clicking on its own link)
