F1 would be a good start as there are F1 cars =]
JGTC
Indy
Nascar
Etc etc.
I'd like to see some kind of full season things, that take up a whole year on the game.
I doubt that would ever come into GT but oh well :]
 
Trans Am 1970
Bud Moore Mustangs, AAR Cudas, Penske Javelins, Chaparral Camaros, Owens/Corning Camaros, Autodynamic Challengers...

Parnelli Jones, Dan Gurney, Swede Savage, Jim Hall, Mark Donahue, Sam Posey, Ed Leslie, George Follmer...

I was at the 1970 race at Elkhart and the log of the corner workers' reports reported "metal to metal" at about 9 or 10 of the 14 corners on the first lap alone.

Speed GT
 
I would like to see large saloons battle it out , Lexus LS460 vs BMW 7er vs Merc S class vs Audi A8/S8 vs Infinti Q45...etc you get the idea .... should be a challange driving those heavy cars at the limit on a track

I agree, but I would like to see all the cars from 1966-1972 in the series. The Bud Moore Cougars, Shelby Mustangs, Penske Camaro's, the old Darts, Corvairs, Barracudas, and all of the cars that participated from 66-72.

Not to mention all of the many wonderful cars that participated in the U2.0 liter category and later the 2.5 liter challenge such as the, BRE Datsun 510, the Factor Alfa Romeo's, Lotus Cortinas, Porche 911s, Mini Coopers, Volkswagen Beetles, BMW 2002, Volvo 122, and Fiat Abarths.
 
At least one "Proto Type" race to race the cars that you "win" but have no use for. In short at least 1 race that your useless car can race. Tank Car Leno,Concept cars... getting the ideal here?
 
I would love PD so much that it wouldn't be describeble in words, if they added:

1. NHRA Powerade Drag Racing Series
2. NHRA Sportsman Series

Would be so awesome if they include drag racing license as well! Sportsman license (for the Sportsman Series) and Pro license (for the Powerade Series). The test should be a complete
run at the strip (burnout, stage in included). This would work perfectly as two different licenses since there are two ways the "Christmas Tree" is used, one sportsman way and one pro way.

"With the Sportsman Tree the three ambers march down in a .5 second sequence with the green illuminating .5 seconds after the third amber light. The goal is to "cut" a perfect .5 second light by anticipating the green. Anything under .5 seconds is a red light."

"With the Pro Tree the three ambers illuminate at the same instant with the green illuminating .4 seconds later. The goal is to "cut" a perfect .4 second light by anticipating the green. Anything under .4 seconds is a red light."

then to clear the license you have to get:
Bronze: 0.9 seconds in reaction time.
Silver: 0.6 seconds in reaction time.
Gold: 0.4 seconds in reaction time.

Try the different trees in these simulators! :)

Think about it ;)

I Like it!! Do you think they should be a total time for the license Nothing insane. But you know what we're going to be getting instead is probably "drift".
 
Btw, NHRA Powerade Drag Racing Series contains three classes which are:

Top Fuel:


Top Fuel Funny Car:


Pro Stock:


And if you ask me, Super Stock should be the class in GT5's Sportsman Series:

Super Stock:
 
The drag racing idea does sound pretty cool. I just spent the last couple of minutes with the christmas tree game. Got a .407 on the pro tree.
 
I would like to see Improved Production touring cars and Group C touring cars in GT5. Improved Production was similar to the Trans Am cars of the day but with more freedoms. Allan Moffat's Mustang was built to be a Trans Am car by Bud Moore before Ford sent it to Australia for Moffat to drive in the touring car championship. Other cars like Norm Beechey's Monaro and Pete Geoghegan's Falcon are often reffered to as Trans Aus cars they resembled Trans Am cars so much.
 
I really woudnt know what to add, all the previous suggestions are great. they definitely need more "classic" races.

Trans AM
classic F1, pre 1970
classic lemans
basically anything racing older cars, especially with big V8s, you know that kind of stuff and I mean more than 1 race or series. lets try and race to classics for more than 4 or 5 races. also let me build a classic than might be able to compete later in the game, the gt40 lemans car is probably my favorite car in the gt games, but once you hit the professional hall its not very competive
 
I'll go with my favorites:

* V8 Supercars
* DTM Touring Cars
* FIA GT Cars
* Speed GT
* American Le Mans Series
* Ferrari Scandinavia Challenge
* BTCC
* WTCC
* Star Mazda Series
* Rolex Grand-Am/Daytona Prototypes

NOTE: If PD ever gets the green-light to include Porsche's...then you'd have to add the Porsche Cup Challenge (?) as well! ;-)
 
What I want to see is the A1GP. It should be an online championship, and laid out like most championships. But since there's only one car for every country that enters, there should be elimination rounds where every driver from a certain country that enters goes to their country's elimination round, and then they'd practice for a certain amount of time and then lay down a couple of hot laps. Whoever gets the fastest lap becomes that country's driver for the championship. The other drivers aren't done yet, though. If there's a certain country that doesn't enter (or doesn't get GT5), the drivers that weren't selected can go to THOSE countries and try to get in there.

What do you think?:eek:

:-)
