Whoever is updating their site has no idea about F1!
The description of Silverstone is hilarious:
Anyway... great track selection! 👍
But get someone who cares about motorsport to update the site!!
They make so many mistakes, I am not sure which Hockenheim we will get!
The tilkedrome or the original circuit? The photos suggest the Tilkedrome, I hope not...

Haha, I think they gave away a DLC track there accidentally, or an earlier version that has been scrapped.

To me it seems to be the 2002 version of hockenheim that is in the game.
«...»Overview of Track
Re-designed for the 2002 German Grand Prix – which was won by Michael Schumacher – Hockenheimring was shortened considerably, from 4.2-miles to a mere 2.8-mile track. This configuration appears in SHIFT 2 Unleashed and features a much tighter Turn 1 – known as the Nordkurve – and the formerly long forest straights section replaced with more tight curves, which was highly controversial, but you’ll love bombing around this track in any car – Bavarian or not «...»
Maybe Im not reading it properly
So wich one is it????

They changed it, at first it was the description for the original track with a sentence about DLC, they than edited the DLC part out and a short while later replaced it with the current description.

The write-ups for Hockenheim and Silverstone (whether deliberate or not) are both horribly confusing as to which layout is on the game.
As for the DLC-or not thing for Hockenheim, I would not be surprised to have one variation in the game (eg modern) and one as DLC (blast through the forest)

Silverstone is the pre-2010 version as it only has 17 turns(The new Arena layout has 18).
Hockenheim is the current version and it appears the old version will be DLC at some point.
Current:
Pre-2001(Possible DLC):
Hope that clears it up.👍

what are peoples opinions about getting this when already owning gt5. i tend to buy racing games cause i like getting new ones but only play a little bit of them. ie. nfs hot pursuit, grid. shift 1 was fun. but not sure if i should get this or not. though i do like the racing modding.

I own GT5 (and the other GTs) but I'm really looking forward to playing Shift Unleashed and Dirt 3. Why? Because GT5 offers few circuits (and in particular no such classics as Spa or Bathurst) while all the great tracks from GT4 had been announced. Because the AI in Shift is aggressive and it's a real challenge to win a race. Because all cars in Shift and Dirt have cockpit view. Because, despite Sébastien Loeb's endorsement, rally is neglected in GT5 and the famous Group B cars are all standard. Because Shift 1 and Dirt 1 & 2 are fun games while GT5 is the first in the Gran Turismo series I sometimes get bored with. And I could go on forever: GT5 is a great game but it's not the only great racing game around now. The competition is tough. GT titles used to set the trend but despite being graphically superb, the fifth installment doesn't compare in terms of prestige and utter pleasure. There's too much of everything in it: it's lost focus. Just my two cents though...

Awesome, brilliant car list so far and it just gets better and better 
I wonder what helmet cam will be like in the old Cobra/older cars, will it just be the player in racing suit with full helmet or will it represent the old style gear?

What, like a balaclava and aviator goggles?
Actually, I started off being sarcastic but that would be pretty cool now that I think about it...

Agreed! As far as the choice of cars and tracks is concerned, it's already a great achievement per se. I hope that's not it for good surprises with this game!
Hey Paytonlow,
http://www.needforspeed.com/shift2unleashed/car/Ford-SHELBY-GT500
So you can change the tba status of the gt500, it's included under the ford manufacture on the official site.

Finallt! Another game to include a sixties racing corvette! Well, a C2 anyway... but, yet again, another racer to ignore, totally, the r33 skyline... why does it only show in gt?

I think it runs into the problem of lacking a reason FOR it's inclusion, instead of reasons to exclude it. The R32 was the big comeback for the GTR name for Nissan, so gets in for the fame factor. The R34 is the most technologically advanced of the three, so gets in for being the quickest (I'm ignoring the R35 here, as it's sort of not in the same boat as the R32/33/34). The R33 is just sort of just an inbetweener, it doesn't have anything to commend it's inclusion other than completeness.
I'm guessing that's what they're thinking anyway. I'd like it included too, but if you were going to skip any of them, I'd say skip the R33.

Because not everyone wants another game full of Skylines. I'd prefer variety if I'm honest than every form of Skyline available.

To be honest thats a skyline I really dont like. That one and the R32 on the other hand I love the R34
