Barcelona rallycr-- oh, wait. Did I say Fuji already? Why on this green Earth do we go through fifty feet of pavement on horrible tires, hit a patch of, wait...
I wanna drive over a cliff into that high banked corner but I can't even see it these days! And finish the original track, hold a bake sale if you have to, or license it to a video game publisher for their arcade cabinet.
After reading all the post , i think the truth is here : Combo.It's not the tracks I hate, it's the combos we get paired with.
Brands in clios is epic. Brands with op Mazda or GR3 stuff isn't fun.
Daytona is an awesome circuit, but not as a one make GT race.
The tracks are largely fine, although St Croix is not on my fan fav list.
It's the pairing of the race combo that bring them alive.
When PD nail it with things like the custom cars at TM everything is just better. If it's just renta meta the track is almost irrelevant.
In my opinion, the "anime" setting of Alsace is strange: it is very colorful, there are too many guardrails and the track has meaningless traffic markings. All of this gives the circuit an artificial appeal.
I think Alsace is a cartoonish parody of Charade.
If they removed the guardrails and left only the walls (similar to real-life circuits, Bathurst style), removed the traffic markings from the asphalt, lengthened some and shortened other straights, seeking some proportionality, and narrowed the track by one meter, perhaps the circuit could be more organic and interesting.

Agreed.I've been thinking about this question for a while and it is definitely the Rallycross track at Barcelona that I like the least.
Northern Isle is great for Custom Races. I've had some close wins and losses there when the cars are set up right.If there's any track I hate, it's Special Stage Route X... It's gratuitously long and boring, and an oval..... Ok, there is one more track and that is Northern Isle Speedway, its short and boring... And an oval ..
I just don't get the love for the Tokyo circuits. They have nothing of interest about them, all are very samey samey, and completely free of character.Even though I don’t like the dirt / snow physics of GT, I’d take them over any of the Tokyo tracks.
They are the worst
I mean... there's the setting for one.I just don't get the love for the Tokyo circuits. They have nothing of interest about them, all are very samey samey, and completely free of character.
The setting is dull as it gets! They've managed to make the most vibrant city in the world look utterly boring. My real life garage will tell anyone that I'm a huge JDM fan. These circuits offer nothing for a real taste of JDM culture (go to Tokyo yourself to judge for real, it's marvelous and the game does it a vast disservice)I mean... there's the setting for one.
If you are into JDMs at all this is the place you go to to drive your 90s Nissan Silvia or your Honda at night in VR while listening to City Pop via Spotify.
I love it.
I didnt know what to make of autopolis at first but in gt sport i was forced to learn it in for a 20lap gt3 race with tyre wear. Those time trials in the mercedes were so fun.I used to hate Autopolis, I could never get a good lap around that circuit. Now I’m starting to get the hang of it though and it’s a lot of fun when you get a good flow.
My least favourite track is Fuji. Too wide for my liking and I don’t play it often enough to learn it well.
I don't know. I'll place the fire blanket over that one.I'll spice things up with a take I've mentioned before but now with full development.
Bathurst is garbage.
Reasoning on this: As I logged laps in my last league race there I had plenty of time to think about what it has and lacks. People conplain about the PD original tracks for several things, bad track limits, tight gimmicky corners or sections with walls, and death curbs. All of which Bathurst has. My opinion is that people's love of it has to do with it being a real world track that's had great racing and is still used regularly, not loved from them getting to know and race the place.
Willow Springs' Big Willow is a great track for racing yet seems to be massively hated for being hard to master. Just because it's not a highlight used racetrack seen by many people it gets shade. For actual racing I'd put St. Croix B (which so many people seem quick to poo on) as hands down better for racing in far more types of classes and still has a great flowing section. Also, someone exain why Silverstone has all the feature and character of St. Croix but people seem to beg for it? (Note: I've never driven the track in any game, just watched onboard from F1, Gt3, WEC and GT4)
Flame away.
