Now just give me Midfield, El Capitan and Grand Canyon.

Since all tracks from GT5 are being retained in GT6, I chose every track that wasn't in GT5.

Grindelwald will always be a favourite I remember racing the luxury saloons race in a BMW 7 series at Grindelwald, was excellent
But there's so many classics... complex string, seattle, mid-field, SS11.. really its the missing GT2 tracks that I miss the most.
Red rock was never a favourite though.... I think if they updated that so it remotely believable, it would be changed beyond recognition..
.. but I agree the more tracks the better. I'd prefer more real ones, but the original tracks must be the easiest for PD to get in the game with less expense or effort.

Yea I loved Grindelwald too!

I think that PD could get rid of Cape Ring. It's a silly track.

Cape Ring South and Cape Ring Inside are quite pleasurable circuits. Cape Ring North is goofy.
I wish someone could combine Cape Ring South and Cape Ring Inside to make a Cape Ring GP circuit.
Take the Cape Ring South layout, as normal, except at the hairpin. Instead of having a hairpin there, I'd prefer if it was a chicane that led from Cape Ring South to Cape Ring Inside, and then go down the Inside layout through the corners that return you to the South layout. It would increase top speeds from the South layout, avoid the jump, and would offer a very nice flowing rhythm.

Let me say it like this: Cape Ring certainly has it's better and worse configurations, and while I see a small point in the roundabout, I don't see a point in having a jump on a circuit that host LMP races. Cut that part out, and it'd be much more enjoyable. Maybe add the PD trademark, a tunnel 
Those "intersections", with their sheer size, would make for a devilish good bus stop chicane

The one thing GT5 needed was a really awesome chicane, for those who drive like me. (two wheels is the fastest way through a chicane, right?)

I, a european, approve of this. 3 wide past Times Square trying to brake as late as possible into the first turn. All of them go too wide, and the guy in 4th take the lead
or at least that's what the online would be like Strange, though. This thread had it's rebirth a year after it's original creation. Also just after Apricot Hill was confirmed for GT6.

Because PD have occasionally produced some underwhelming circuits. Just because some tracks appeared on a past GT game doesn't automatically make them classics, or worthy of remodelling.
If people were only allowed to choose one to three circuits on this list, I can think of a few tracks that would certainly have close to zero votes.

I think, with the exception of Seoul and Hong Kong, both of which I dislike, I'd like to see them all included again, they've all got something to offer IMO.. even the pod race track might be a fun distraction online!
But statistically yes, if people were constrained to 3 votes, I'm sure the top 3 wouldn't change very much, and everything else would have much lower votes.
Interesting the Chamonix is the least favorite so far.

I can understand that.
There isn't much of a framework to allow proper racing there. The snow effects are exaggerated to the point that it makes close racing without contact pretty much impossible. Even with ghosting, every corner is virtually taken blindly by the player because vision is impaired so much. The fact that there are no staggered starts means there is no practical solution to this.
Ice Racing and Rallycross tracks in real life don't create the wall of powder or dust that GT5 rallycross tracks do. The excessive powder/dust is just a badly designed feature by PD - I don't think players have such a criticism of the track designs themselves.

I just voted for the one track I want back the most, which is Midfield.
I spent hours upon hours perfecting my times on that track with GT2 & GT3.
When I think about it, I did really enjoy Seattle a lot, but that could just be of my big passion for all this Grunge
The above video reminded me how much I missed the RM Tigra from GT2 as well
(Slightly off topic, will the PS4 be able to play PS3 games or is there no backwards compatibility with the system?)

SSR11 is my 2 cents, in GT1 configuration preferably.

As of right now there is no backwards compatibility for PS3 games.Felix
There was talk like they could have them streaming eventually but nothing so far.

I like a lot of the city courses, but never really did play on Hong Kong while growing up.
I spent probably way too long playing on Seoul, but definitely enjoyed Seattle, Mid-field, Tokyo R246 and Opéra Paris quite a bit.
They're tricky to get right.

Tokyo still is pretty challenging after all these years playing on it.
Midfield is a rather smooth and fun to drive course in my opinion, I hope Kaz and co. give it the Apricot Hill treatment

Actually, come to think of it, it wouldn't be hard for them to make a night version for it. I see plenty of opportunities for lighting via lamp posts and tunnel lighting...

As well as a daytime Special Stage Route 5.
I would love to see that. Really like the layout but tired of squinting while racing. For some reason driving in cockpit camera seems darker...
