Has anybody managed to get onto the Monza banking ?

There are three potential entry points around the circuit but I haven't
managed to 'jump' the barriers yet.

It is possible at Watkins Glen to jump some of the barriers and drive
outside the circuit perhaps its
possible at Monza also?

One other thing, was the track so narrow in 1967, it appears much narrower
than it is now.

I got through the first. You can't get to the bank.  If you stop at the
barracade and press F-10 you will see that the track is darker to the
left and angles to the grass.  That is as far as you can drive.  I saw
the same pattern beyond another barracade.

Yes, it was this width in 1967.

One thing has always puzzled me about Papyrus' sims: when replaying a
part of a driving sequence, and viewing the replay from an external
camera, the track width always appears *greater* than when driving the
car or viewing the replay from within the car!!

The width of the track at Monza, when viewed externally, appears twice
the size as it does when viewed from the***pit.  Is this an optical
illusion or is it so?
