I think I can wait a while until it appears in CVS, there is some basic work left on the aircraft before the eye candy find their way into it.
I found most of the racetrack layouts on the official web site. They have a few kml files for google earth and schematic diagrams for most of the tracks. Together with some pictures from the gallery on the site it was quite easy to place the gates. Probably not on the perfectly correct spot - but good enough. Unfortunately our scenery in the San Francisco marina area is not very accurate and the cost line looks like it has been made by a zigzag cutter. So the racetrack doesnt look half as cool as it could. Sigh.
