I am about to D/L this. But is it a lap of Seca in real life or in GT3?

 

[uM_Jammer]

Nice!

Geeezus, GT3 is pretty damn realistic....... the game looks *exactly* like that.

 

[RX-7 Turbo II]

Exactly the same... but I think in GT3 the track just before the corkscrew is a little bit diffrent, or am I wrong??

GT3 isnt exactly perfect. I've seen the corkscrew portrayed in heaps of different ways on heaps of different racing games.

are any of the other tracks real?

GT3's Laguna Seca is the pre-1999 configuration. They modified the Corkscrew area after a CART driver lost its life there, in 1999 (Gonzalo Rodriguez, or Rodriguo Gonzalez, i can't remember his name)... He hit the tire wall, flipped over the wall and landed upside down at the bottom of the hill... They since flattened the Corkscrew a bit, to increase the safety of the corner.

It's not 100% perfect, but it's a better representation then some games i've seen. (Sports Car GT comes to mind)

Ah! I see. Most of the other racing games I've played have the flattened laguna (most of the Toca's).

Did they ever work out what happened there? I know there was some talk of a stuck throttle but it seemed to peter out.
