Rockingham track
Looking at the site earlier today, and there's a dizzying selection of track versions. Is there one like standard layout that most road racing will use there? Not just BTCC/GT/F3 but like club stuff too?

Rockingham has the Oval, a Road course, Bike circuit and a modified Road for historics (I believe). So there are "4" tracks available

Actually, I've counted 9 tracks, 8 named plus the one that Legends use, which is a combination of the historic and motorcyle circuits.
They are: 1) Oval 2) International Long 3) International Short 4) Motorcycle Long 5) Motorcycle Short 6) Historic 7) Historic Link 8) National 9) Legends course There is no "usual" road course, the organising club of an event uses whichever one they want to. I've seen the Rockingham opener, where several different tracks were used, PowerTour, where the International Long circuit was used, the Renault winter series, where the historic circuit was used, and now ASCARs, where pickups used the historic link circuit and Legends used a new one which I hadn't heard of before. |

Also there are further combinations that can be used, a "club" circuit using just the infield roads and two short infield loops that are used for road tests etc by magazines, one uses the roads around the "lake" inside turn 2 the other uses the hairpin area and pitlane at the back of the paddock and the loop of track going towards turn 3
