We will be running the track in both directions so numbering the corners doesn't make much sense as they will change with direction. Having named corners will give the circuit some personality too.
Here are some suggestions:
1. Monza
2. Sidewinder
3.
4.
5.
6.
7. Causer's Curves
8.
9.
10.
Some of you know corners 3 and 9 as certain names already but I will leave those names off of this.
Please add your suggestions.

Re: Corner naming
Okay, I'll bite and throw some out!
#1. The Ditch / Creekside
#2. Corkscrew / Tonka Turns
#3. Northstar
#4. Kwong Way
#5. Turn 5 -since it's consistent either way
#6. Curva Grande
#7. The Wiggles
#8.
#9. Hairball
#10. Medic
I can imagine there will be a lot of excellent names provided, and the hardest part will be choosing.

Re: Corner naming
Having not seen the track in person it's difficult to do this, but I think incorporating the names of the people who made the track happen would be the right thing to do. Causers curves, Kwong corner and Hagerty Hill to name but a few. Selfishly I think 7. Dead mans chicane has a nice ring to it
