i've only done a couple of videos using OSM/OHM and my leaflet widget to explain #ghosttracks history. Watkins Glen is sort of a Ghost Track but also very much not one. this video goes through the early circuits and shows their location with respect to the modern track. #OpenHistoricalMap #OpenStreetMap #history #motorracing https://youtu.be/TCE8cy6B2nQ

i occurs to me that i've not explained #ghosttracks here. motor racing historians ofte describe tracks that once were as Ghost Tracks. being a racing enthusiast, a mapper, and a historian, i've taken up the subject, and am gradually entering ghost tracks into OpenHistoricalMap, and ones that exist today into #OpenStreetMap. #motorracing
