I'd love this circuit back, its one of my favourites, also, I know this is a wish list request, but I'd love Lincolnshire's Cadwell Park to make it, I live pretty close to it and love going to see races at it, Hall Bends in a tuned GT would be heaven ;)
 
I have rever really raced on it. In GT3 i don't think there is any competition with a race at this track. Although there are a few licence tests with it on, its mostly used in arcade mode. But with online time trial listings, i think Complex string is going to be one of those essential circuits like the Nurburgring or the Top Gear Testrack. It will be one of the most contested.

I want it in for definite, but not at the expense of circuits that are more fun to race on. I would hate the idea of an actual race on complex string.

To be honest i would be much happier if they put Special Stage route 11 back in.
 
What would be a nice change because the whole course is flat, would add a few little banked corners here and there.

camber-wise it was flat but remember the last section had some nice hills that crested right at the apexes of the turns
 
lets presume a average of a 5 min laptime (and that may be a min too slow) x1000 cars.

it would take 3 and half days of non stop testing to give every car a run.
 
I would love to have the Complex String back! I don't even want to guess how many laps I drove on it back in the days :D

But I also have to agree with those who do not want to do real races on it.
 
It should certainly be a test only track.

perhaps with one wet sector with a sprinkler system like many real life testing grounds?
 
To me, it brings back memories of doing the license test with the Mine's GT-R, back then I was ohhing and ahhing at the blow off valve noises, thought that nothing could be improved, oh how things have progressed :)
 
It's a basic track in terms of environment - shouldn't be too hard for them to include it. I'd definitely thrash around it if it was included, but I'm more interested in the Top Gear Test Track. They have to get that included, and totally nailed to perfection. If they do not include an entire game mode centered around that track, they will have seriously missed a trick!

For all of the cars that are in the game that The Stig has driven around the track, each one should have a real-time ghost replay of The Stig's time so we can all race against it and produce our own "Top Gear Test Track Leaderboard" :D

👍👍👍
 
I just want this track, I don't care about it looks out of the road, just with 1080p textures and nothing else. But need this track to test the 1000 cars.
 
This track would be perfect for practising drifts, there is every type of corner; tight curves, long wide ones, and the long chicanes.

I want this track.
 
Complex String reminds me a bit of Paul Ricard... with all its variations. With the exception that, you cannot hold a race on it.... complex string is strictly only for testing purposes. But I enjoyed it, especially the "snake" section where the road went up and down and were at the same time a series of "S" bends. The section i thought was difficult was the section I called "The streets" because it reminds me of a street course... I think you know what part I am talking about (the ones that are sharp corners, squares)..... Anyways, I'm already talking too much about this.. I'd like it back....
 
Ooh baby, I want it. I miss it a lot actually and there is much to learn from it 👍

I never played this track on GT3 except for the licence tests. But i think it would be the perfect track to get used to and test new cars, because it has a bit of everything.

Just no races on it please.
 
What I'd like is this:

Complex string, possibly renamed to something like 'Gran Turismo Development course', coupled with an onsite 'wind tunnel' and tuning garage. So, you take in your car, develop it with parts, body kits, spoilers, tyres, suspension, drivetrain and engine upgrades etc, then go into the wind tunnel to tune your aero-parts, manage the air under the car etc, and then... onto the 'string' to put it through its paces. But....

The Complex string should be the 'infield', with the test course (the huge Nardo style high speed curcuit from GT4) around the outside to test speed and stability. Then, we should have a 'wet' handling curcuit attached to it aswell, plus an off road rally section... :sly:
 
I want it, of course, but I would also like an added section with more elevation changes. I want to know how well my car will do up those hills as well as on flat sections.
