Spa francochamps other start/finish location?

Hi all,
As maybe some of you guys know, Spa has two start/finish lines. The first one is the GP layout but there is another line at the other side of the pits between La source and Eau Rouge.
Has anybody a good working trackset for this 2nd layout? I am going to race a 24h race with this track layout and I want to be sure to have a good working track layout in my laptimer.

Can anybody help? Can I just take the official track and only change start/finish or is it not that easy?

Hi,
I will add this as second configuration for Spa. Is anything else different to the GP Layout?

As far as I know only the location of start/finish is different. And turn 1 is now the last turn ;) So turn 2 is now 1 etc etc etc.
The interval points are at the same location. (as far as I know)

Hi,
the new SPA configuration is now available for download. Please check it out
via 'add-ons', update the list via the button at the top right corner and search for ‚Spa ‘.

That S/F line is the old long Spa course S/F line, as I remember. In the racing sim Grand Prix Legends, you had to keep a foot on the brake to keep from jumping the start.

It worked perfectly! Laptimer recorded 320 laps on my iPhone with internal GPS. It missed only 2 start finish markers.
The funny thing about the whole story is that in the race we used the "other startline" but the official timing of the race was done with the normal F1 layout. During the race I noticed this. So after all we did not needed the new track layout. Thanks anyway Monika :)
