Best
1.) Silverstone- Love that 1st set of corners. I usually run good there
2.) Laguna Seca- It's fun out-braking people on the Corkscrew and watching them fly off down the hill
3.)Spa-Francorchamps- Eau Rouge
Honorable Mention: Donington Park- Very similar to Silverstone. Gotta love the attention to detail EA put into the track by including the Spitfire Statue in turn 3 (It's hard to see for the huge billboard in front of it.)
Worst
1.) Ebisu Circuit West & South- Too tight and technical. Too many corners that sneak up on you, the cliffs on the side of the track, and a lot of kitty litter to get caught in makes it a punter's paradise.
2.) London Royal Mile & London River- Too many hairpins and the rumble strips can easily send you spinning after the 1st or 2nd turns.
3.) Glendale- Another place I seem to get punted a lot. Reminds me too much of the Autumn Mini Ring from GT
Honorable Mention: Tokyo Circuit & Club- That first turn is just dumb. Can't tell you how many times I have messed up and hit those water barrels.

Best....

1) Spa Francorchamps - what a brilliant, flowing circuit this is! Utterly spectacular.
2) London Royal - That chicane down the back straight is pure genius - getting it right requires massive committment and a good setup. It also leaves GT London for dead... (but for how long?)
3) Road America - I have only raced this circuit in the old TOCA game which didn't do it any justice at all - the Shift version finally makes me understand why this is such a highly regarded track.

Worst:

1) Dakota Oval
2) The other "oval" (can't remember it's name but it's pathetic)
3) Eibisu - go kart track only, not in any way meant for these kinds of cars.

If any of you are wondering about Nordie... well... it's becoming a bit stale these days and it's a bugger of a track to pass on. Only good for time trials...

I was always asking myself why did they put a 8 track in a ''sim'' ? It's not like there was a demolition derby mode with derby cars. I see that it's still NFS in a way.

Spa & I'm liking Road America at this point. Did everybody notice the smoke rising from the background on the last turn.

I think it's in there for drift more than anything.

 

[johnniesimpson]

Best:
1. Cote d'Azur. Looks fantastic, challenging but not insane (like Nurburg).
2. Autodromo Nazionale Monza. Turn 1 used to piss me off, but once you get the hang of it, this track is a lot of fun.
3. Eiger Nordwand. One word: GORGEOUS.

Worst:
1. Nurburgring Nordschleife. I know I should love it, it's iconic, but the road is so narrow that it's almost impossible to stay on the pavement at high speeds. Very frustrating.
2. Top Gear Test Track. It's kinda interesting, but if you're leading it's hard to know which direction you're even supposed to go in.
3. ....eh?

 

[johnniesimpson]

Oh, Cape Ring! That one sucks! WAAAAAY too long! 5 laps takes like ten minutes.

This is the Shift forum...

 

[TexasTyme214]

Best:
1: Dubai Autodrome. I've ran the track to death trying to learn it. I love the flow of every part of the track.
2: London Royal Mile. A lot better than GT5s, but sometimes I get the feeling that both tracks are at the same location of the city. I love the adrenaline rush of turn 1 each and every time.
3: Riviera Casino Riviera. Very fun track. There's never a dull corner here. All are fast, technical, or both.

Worst:
1: Monza Jr. This track is the most boring to run. It attracts every driver that dislikes a turn and those that love nitrous.
2: Willow Springs GP. The track felt on in Shift 1, but the bumps and elevation changes softened up and made the track boring.
3: Dakota GP. Same as Willows, but the track didn't have much to begin with. There are some interesting parts from the smaller tracks to make it better. Overall, Daytona, Indy, or even Rockingham would've been much better.

2. Suzuka
1. Oschersleben!!! I HATE THAT GODDAMN TRACK SO MUCH!!!

London Royal Mile. A lot better than GT5s, but sometimes I get the feeling that both tracks are at the same location of the city.

Thats probably because they are actually all in the same location.

3. Road America

Honorable mentions: Donington, Hockenheim, Monza, Riviera Monaco version.

Dakotas (all configurations)

Best:
Laguna Seca
Nords

[TexasTyme214]

Thats probably because they are actually all in the same location.

I know that both tracks are in London, but I meant specifically the same location within London.

 

[grahamw56]

Best: All Glendales, London River, Ambush Canyon + lots of the other tracks.

Worst: Any oval (borrrrring!), Silverstone GP and other Silverstone circuits, because the online cheating is particularly rife on them. Riviera...the long one.

 

[Vaxxtx]

Best:

1. Nurburgring. Any config. LOVE it.

2. Road America.

3. Hockenhiem (old one). So fast.

Worst:

1. Riviera. Any config. HATE.

2. Ambush Canyon. Cool track, just cant get it down.

3. Tokyo Docks.

 

[FLX1981]

Oh yeah, why all the hate for Ambush Canyon? I really like it, has a nice flow to it, great scenery... Only the magnetic tunnel is ennerving but since I found the sweet braking spot there I really like that track.
