Greatest track for what?

It has a long straight, but not the longest in the game so it's not the greatest for that...

It has some turns but none of them are a real challenge so it's not the greatest for that...

The only thing it is good for is for endurance, because it is easy.

I challenge you to drive in the pouring rain at night and say that.
 
Furi, make it so that everyone can drop their worst overall weekend so those who don't have Spa won't have a disadvantage. Just sayin', bro.

But I'm still much rather seeing Indy on the calendar, and I believe Spa should get replaced, since the only guy who has so far voted for it to stay is Eclat, for reasons I don't understand.

As I miss the Spa (or whatever track it looks like it will be replaced with) then I partially agree with that ;)

Dont mind though, and dont expect it to happen either 👍

I'm sorry, what?

This is going to be like the ballast thing, when apparently I am the only one who wants a certain thing, when really lots of people agree with me but because I have spoke the most about it their posts are redundant.

Also, reasons you can't explain? Spa is probably the most loved track, at least by the GT5 community. It is just incredible in any car. Ask anyone on this thread who know anything about motorsport and they will agree.
 
Also, I would rather have Spa replaced than have a drivers worst weekend dropped.

A bit unfair is one person has driven flawlessly all season, and someone else has done the same except for one race and they end the season on level pegging despite the fact the 1st driver deserved to be ahead.

Why can't the racing just be pure, everyone in similar cars, no stupid perks or anything and just count up the points? Stop trying to over-complicate this.

When one track is not available for everyone, they just can't be counted out of the championship purely because of that. Simple, eh?

I don't understand why people still haven't bought the tracks. It costs nothing.

And there is no need for the sarcastic end, by the way. It's as if you are intentionally trolling.

Also, the most logical thing to do would be to make Spa a non championship race, not just drop someones worst race.
 
Clearly the done thing should be keep Spa and let everybody drop their lowest result.....as i've said before.

This is why the worst race shouldn't be dropped.

Just drop Spa or make it a non-championship race. Simples.
 
Whatever needs to be done to let everyone race fairly will eventually be done, no doubt. If that means dropping Spa completely it probably will happen.

Still think it's not too much of an ask to fork out a couple of quid for a track. If you can afford a PS3 and an internet connection i'm sure you can afford that :P

This, it's not that much...👍

This. I think the one or two who haven't yet got the DLC just can't be bothered to get it.
 
I got a PSN card today, anyway, Masters could be Spa and the CR-Z Touring Car and we could have a street circuit for a proper round.

Well.....

The Mulsanne straight allows you to open the throttle and enjoy the noise and sense of speed.

Yes it is easy to drive round but it is hard to drive fast. Countless people misjudge their braking point into Mulsanne corner. The Indianapolis section is difficult to get right- you have to carry as much speed as you can through the first part without losing the line into the tighter corner, which as it happens is very easy to run wide on. Again take the 2005 version, the Dunlop chicane is a :censored:to get right, due to having to shave off most of your speed before the corner in order to navigate the right turn into the chicane.

Also, because the track is very thin in parts, if you do make a mistake you lose a lot of time due to being off-line or in the sand.

/rant.

Okay, we said greatest track on the game.

The noise argument is out of the window, because the games engine sounds aren't that great...

And you could say that about any other track that it is hard to get your braking points. Now, the Nordschleife... That's a challenge. But seriously, tracks that have real challenging corners instead of a huge boring straight in the middle.

Well I enjoy the straight because some cars are nice to listen to and trying to see how fast you can go down there is fun.

And you could say that about any other track that it is hard to get your braking points. Now, the Nordschleife... That's a challenge.

Yes but particularly at La Sarthe because you have to brake down from 200mph to 0, which means that even if you are only a split second to late on the brake you missed you're braking point by a few meters and you're in the sand or you brake too early and lose a large amount of time.

Also yes the Nordschleife is challenging but I don't like it, racing there is usually boring because it is far too difficult too overtake without being punted into the barrier.

Anyway I like it you don't. Let's leave it at that and get back on topic before Furi kills us. :scared:
 
Furi you have a mistake on the entry list it's chrisjohnson93 not chrisjohnson97

Already got a back up car for Masters and a replacement for Spa sorted 👍 ... I was looking back at an old schedule of mine :sly:

Like the Nordschleife ~whistles~... which is still 100% awesome.

~New TOCA Group Topic up :sly:

There's no reason to force drivers to buy a track, especially since I personally don't like the rendition of Spa in this game at all. Goodbye for Masters too if that out-of-nowhere Spa request gets through.
 
Well then if you don't like it, you're not forced to race.

People should have never been allowed on the DLC tracks if they haven't bought it in the 1st place.

Just change the track to something else though, I think SSR7 would be fun.
 
Just think it's a shame we have to miss out such a great race track, which has been re-created very well by PD, just because some people are being a bit awkward. It's a trivial amount of money, even for a 14 year old like myself.

Any city track would be a suitable replacement in my opinion Furi 👍

Agreed and agreed.

Monaco <3

No. Monaco for TOCA was terrible in Season 2, hence why it wasn't on the calendar in Season 3.

You mean season 3 and season 4...

The only reason it was terrible was because the drivers were idiots and putting stupid moves wherever they could. The track itself is brilliant, and if everyone just calmed down it would be fine.

You can't even pass in Monaco in these cars without being dirty...

Also, I'm just telling things like they are. I won't pay for an overrated track especially after we previously had the right to drive it as long as the host had it. PD screwed us over and I'm not paying them anything to reclaim my earlier rights, that's just stupid.

PD did not screw you over, they did it as an advertisement to get others to buy this awesome, world renound track.
