I don't like Catalunya tbh. Not an exciting track, both visually and from a driver's perspective. There isn't much room to improve, pretty much a circuit for "beginners".

And so another month goes by without Spa-Francorchamps

Since its for a grand finale, it should be none other than: Spa. Spa. Spa. Spa. Spa. Spa.Spa.Spa.Spaspaspaspaspaspaspaspaspaspaspaspasasppapdjapsjfoaisjfoashfocaejosjfhfsfjahdsjhaksflckahsdkfhfakfkas.

I wonder how the people from Madrid would feel after a course from independist region is introduced in their own capital. LOL!

As a fan of GT Original tracks its been a long three months...

Same fam, same

So I took a look at the Catalunyan racetrack and wasn't exactly excited...But a new track is a new track and I'll take it.

Probably OK, since they don't think Barcelona is not part of Spain. If it was the other way around, maybe you'd have a (weird) point.

What should be wrong with the Catalunya Circuit ?

 

[SDSPOWER01]

Sigh.. kinda ruined the element of surprise for me

 

[Darla Starch]

That guy who gets $1 every time SPA is mentioned just loooooooves this thread.

Folks, it's Thursday. You'll know by Saturday.
2 days won't hurt ...
Much...

At this pace, can spring for a GTX 1080/RTX2080 when it comes time to replace my laptop. That, or a 4TB SSD.

Boring, ecpecially in this layout with chicane

And for the next month my bet goes to north american track

 

[Stephan]

It's nice to see Catalunya. The only games that I got to drive on are GTR2 and Shift 2 Unleashed.

And PD, keep it going on not adding Spa. I'm enjoying this.

 

[Leggacy]

It's going to be a surprise if we get a 'legacy' circuit. If it's a fictional track, hope it's real fun this time?

Hey I’d love a legacy track.

 

[wagnerFAM98]

If we are now getting new tracks which location is based on where the e-sports events are being held, I'm officially screwed up. My hopes for the Holy Trinity are gone.

There goes another month......

Don't be soo sad.

 

[SSQES]

No offense guys, but when they add Original tracks we're all asking for Real tracks, and now they are adding real tracks in a row, we're all asking for original tracks... What should they do??

Add both at once

[Hallitrd]

Finally, Midfield Raceway is coming.

Sorry Hallitrd, good guess, but you'll have to wait a bit longer for it to show up. I agree to you, one of my all time favorite GT track.

Monza, Sainte-Croix, Tsukuba, Fuji, Le Mans, Red Bull Ring, Circuit de Barcelona and some new cool layouts of existing tracks. It could be the content of a new game (like GT5 to GT6 or Forza 6 to Forza7).
However, as a GT fan, all I want is Grand Valley, Midfield Raceway...

 

[vicbol]

Cool to finally have my home circuit in Gran Turismo.

It's different people complaining though. I love every original circuit PD has ever made personally.

Forget about adding fictional tracks altogether and keep this trend going of adding all real world locations. We still have so many popular real world locations that should be placed into the GT Series that there should never be another fictional track added.

That's crazy talk. That's not Gran Turismo.

Nothing crazy about it. I sure don't hear people wanting fictional Race Cars over the real one so why would anyone want fake tracks when there are plenty of real ones?

 

[VeeDoubleU]

Because I can race real tracks on plenty of other racing games. I can't race Grand Valley, Dragon Trail, Deep Forest and Maggiore on Project Cars 2 or iRacing you know. I love the uniqueness of some of the fake tracks and fake cars.

 

[Stephan]

At this point I welcome any track regardless whether it's real or not.

 

[DodgySyrup]

If they offer several versions of the Catalan track, specifically the one without that horrendous "health and safety" chicane that destroyed the last corner a few years back, and the shortened version (seen in Real Racing 3 on mobile, amongst other places), as well as a reverse version, it would be a good addition, in my opinion.

Would I prefer Spa or Silverstone instead?

Yeah, probably.

Original Silverstone GP layout is in Assetto Corsa and still feels better to me than the current layout; though as new layouts go the new Silverstone one is acceptable, if less desirable.

I personally enjoy the new, short, Hockenhiem layout too...but I guess with both Nurburgring full and GP they already have a track for Germany.

We'll see, though I'm like most in that an old fantasy classic would serve just as well.

Actually the Vision cars are some of my favorites.
