GT5 Drag race mod?

[Jantsu92]

Look at these pics. Looks like there will be some kind of a drag race mode in GT5.
And looks like those pics are from Top Gear test track.

How does this suggest drag racing in any way, these are runway lights, not a split lane.

EDIT: But GT4 did have drag racing, so GT5 probably will.

Drag, Nascar, Drifting, Rally, Touring Cars,etc... WHAT TYPE OF RACING IS GT5 GOING TO MISS???

Pretty sure it is drag racing. Even though it's on the Top Gear track, TG's layout doesn't let the runaway appear bare.

There's also Indianapolis Speedway

He's possibly thinking of Indianapolis Raceway Park (sometimes called O'Reilly Raceway Park),which gets confused with the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

2 complete different race complexes.

Maybe the 2 cars were just racing on the TGTT??

Maybe. But I think it's more likely drag race mode.

Look at the other screens with the jets flying over head. That is THE Indy. Indycars anyone?

 

[lildomplaya]

I thought the Jets were from La Sarthe, how they also appeared on GT4's La Sarthe 24hr.

Look at the screens closer.

Yep, check the screenies too, in the background of one the Pagoda is standing right in front of you....

Perhaps Poly have gone and made TG's test track into some sport of motorsports center with dragstrip, circuit and Skidpad! That would be great...

The treeline in the dragrace screenshots also reminds me of Dunsford

It look more of a top speed track to me.
