It could also mean the racing series. Like:
WRC
NASCAR
F1?
GT
ect.
But I think that's a long shot

The 20 tracks issue is really bugging me

I am just pulling this from the very ether itself, but it's just something I've been contemplating. I am by no means claiming this to be correct in anyway, but I thought it was a nice piece of mental bubble gum to chew.

When asked about the racing games possible DLC, this is what he had to say:
"Let me be clear on this. There is a massive amount of content in this game, I don't think there are many teams that can put as much into a game as we can."
"The launch of the game isn't a start, we are releasing the full game."
"Everything we want to put in the game is on the disc when it ships, having said that, we do have a sizable online team that will look after it once it's launched."

You dare to compare PD to Infinity Ward? Shame on you
I didn't compare them, I used IW as an example.

In my opinion:
Location = Country
Variation = several tracks layouts (Reverse and Wet versions excluded)
I dont know where High Speed Ring is, but lets suppose its in Germany. In Kaz language, GT5 Prologue would have 5 Locations and 9 variations
Location 1 - England - Variation 1 - London
Location 2 - Germany - Variation 2 - High Speed Ring
Location 3 - Japan - Variations 3, 4, 5 & 6 - Suzuka, Suzuka East, Fuji, Fuji GT
Location 4 - USA - Variations 7 & 8 - Daytona Road, Daytona Speedway
Location 5 - Swiss - Variation 9 - Eiger Nordwand
Also, im one of those who truly believes that the tracks that appear in top right corner of GT5 Prologue Menu (the ones with the weather) are gonna be in GT5. All the real tracks from GT Franchise are there, except Indianapolis. But thats because Indianapolis was not in PD plans by the time they developed GT5 P. Me thinks.
Also, i dont think that those circuits are there just to show the weather in some tracks around the world. If that was the purpose why would they put Zolder, wich i love by the way, but is not very well known when compared with tracks like Donington, Catalunya, Sepang, Bathurst, Paul Ricard, Sebring, Valencia, Muggelo, Phillip Island, etc.and are not there?
That Zolder track in there allways gave me a strong feeling about this.
Ive been doing some math and with all the previous GTs tracks plus the tracks of GT5P weather menu (and its possible variations) i reached a number of 90/96 variations. Its more than the 70 variations PD usually talks about, but it fits quite well in the "eight dozen" Amar wrote in his cryptic post. And also, PD allways use number bellow the real ones (cars and tracks). Even in release dates
With all this, theres about 14/15 locations, so, its still missing 5/6 locations but thats because i dont know where some fantasy tracks are located. Where is Trial Mountain? Amar's avatar says its in Croatia. Maybe it is. And that would be one more location found. PD has certainly some places in mind when they make fantasy tracks.

I always thought Trial Mountain was in Britain.
I have no idea where it is. Amar has something about it in his avatar but its probably a joke. Some fantasy tracks have locations in its names like Tahiti Maze, Grand Canyon, El Capitan, etc. but when it comes to tracks like Trial Mountain, Deep Forest, etc. i dont know where they may be located.
Why do you think Trial Mountain is in Britain? Maybe i missed something.

Wow, 70 created tracks sounds pretty impresive. It sounds about right though, thinking about all of the different variations, forwards, reverse etc. Assuming they bring back all of the old tracks and added a few more new ones the number would be quite close to 70 I think.

Quite a few UK events are held on that track including the UK nationals from GT2, British GT Cup in GT3, UK vs XX from GT1 and so on.

"Locations/Circuits" is not the a literal location as you think in English
quoting one of our fine mods here
I didnt know that. But if he is wright and 20 locations meant 20 real world tracks, or, llike he said it: "over 20 real world tracks", that fits excatly in the number of circuits that appear with weather in GT5 prologue Menu plus Indianapolis:
1 Fuji
2 Magny Cours
3 Brands Hatch
4 Suzuka
5 Monte Carlo
6 Silverstone
7 Sonoma (Infineon)
8 Tsukuba
9 Shangai
10 Estoril
11 Hockenheim
12 Imola
13 Monza
14 Monterey (Laguna Seca)
15 Motegi
16 Nurburgring
17 Daytona
18 Le Mans
19 Spa
20 Zolder
21 Jerez
22 Indianapolis
Here they are, the "over 20 real world tracks". Hope its like this. And some of these tracks have shorter versions as you know.

Quote from your link:
"Trial Mountain Circuit is an original (fictional) circuit that has appeared in all mainline versions of Gran Turismo. It also featured in Tourist Trophy and Gran Turismo PSP and is set to appear in Gran Turismo 5. It is a 2.5 mile circuit run on tarmac which appears to be set in a forest clearing within a mountainous area. The circuit features several blind corners, three tunnels, a long, uphill back straight and a series of fast compound corners. It is seen by most players as one of the easiest circuits in the Gran Turismo Series."
Trial Mountain is a fantasy track with no specific real location. It coul be anywhere. Probably just PD knows where they take inspiration to create it.

If Trial Mountain was a real circuit, somehow I think we would have all known about it by now! Though it would be great to just stumble upon the circuit some sunday afternoon.
Fiction can be based on real world locations.
On topic though:
Does anyone have the original source of this "20/70 business" in French?

Thats a tantalizing theory if I may say so. It does make some sense.
I'm wondering how much better some of the GT original tracks will look graphically. Some looked pretty sweet before. We've already seen tokyo and a short tease of special stage route 5 plus whats in Prologue of course. Forest way could be really cool with better evironment graphics as too would grand valley with its bridge section.
Can't wait.

I never really thought about where it may have been. What made you think in britain?
From what I remember it didn't seem gray/cloudy enough to be in emgland.
Wherever it is it should look pretty awesome in GT5, all those trees should look less flat. The mountain rock detail/texturing should also be impressive.

If my memory is right, there was a british flag on the map of the track in a race event for british cars in GT2?

Nope, it's totally made up (with some basis on real topography etc.) but if I had enough money and enough land, I sure-as-hell would get that course faithfully recreated in real life! In the middle of the track, I'd get a version of "Complex String" made up for karting!I always thought Trial Mountain was in Britain.
