What tracks could you live WITHOUT in GT5?

Given that it's likely GT5 will feature less tracks than GT4, and with the knowledge there will be new courses added to the series, the reality is that some of our favorite courses may be absent in the next installment of GT. What tracks are you prepared to let go of?

My first choice would be some of the city tracks like Hong Kong and Seoul (Tokyo is a keeper). Maybe a few less versions of Fuji and Twin Ring Motegi.

I personally love some of the more scenic courses like El Captain, Eiger Nordwand (GT5P) and Costa di Amalfi. Even bring back the old Tahiti Road from GT2 in high definition goodness.

I just think those kind of tracks lend themselves to the majority of production cars available in GT. Sure, the real-life race tracks have their place, but the truth is a lot of them were designed for high performance race cars. If the allure of the GT series is driving cars you see on the streets every day, then maybe it wouldn't hurt if we had a few less 'new' race tracks and a few more road courses like those mentioned above... or maybe some long point to point roads like others have mentioned in other posts. Down the side of a mountain? A three hour endurance stretch up the coast of California?
 
Almost every rally circuits are dispensable. I won't grieve over the loss of Swiss Alps, Tahiti Maze... if they are replaced by paths point to point like those who have shown in Tuscany. The SSR5 and SSR11 also could be replaced satisfactorily by the night circuits in Paris, Rome, Singapore and especially New York. I want to see Times Square lit.

On the real Montreal Gilles Villeneuve, it's a legendary F1 circuit, recently been used for NASCAR, a great course and a first as far as Canadian circuits.
 
Swiss Alps- Nice, Simple track but I would rather see a more proper Rally Circuit with stages

Grand Canyon- Beautiful Scenery but the track itself is just a pain to drive. I would rather see Pike's Peak instead.

Motorland/Beginer's Course- Glorified Go-Cart Tracks. Bring back Complex String, PLEASE!

New York/Hong Kong/Seoul- One 90 Degree hairpin after another. Great to look at though.

Ice Arena- See Swiss Alps

El Capitan- Beautiful Scenery, but I never got the idea of having a race course in the middle of Yellowstone

Opera Paris- Just hate that track. George V looks much better and is a lot more fun to drive

Chamonix- Absolutely gorgeous track, I just wish it wasn't a circuit.

Cathedral Rocks- See Swiss Alps

Deep Forest- Kind of boring

Autumn Ring- Ugly Fall Scenery, boring track

Citta di Aria- Just not a fun track. Too narrow in places and it's almost impossible to pass on it. If they made it a proper Targa-Style Course and not a circuit it would be fun.
 
El Capitan- Beautiful Scenery, but I never got the idea of having a race course in the middle of Yellowstone

I hate to bust your chops, but El Capitan is modeled in YOSEMITE not Yellowstone.

Anyhow, I could live without:

Ice Arena: Although it was a snow track, it seemed too bland.

Opera Paris: For some reason I couldn't stand it. Didn't like the design.

Beginner Course & Motorland: As someone mentioned above, glorified go-kart tracks.

Fuji 2005 GT & 80's: I can understand having several variations of certain tracks but when they're making different tracks with little minor details like removing 1 or 2 corners, that's where I draw the line. Keep 2005 and 90's, get rid of GT and 80's.

Grand Canyon: I appreciate the landscape and the challenge however I would ditch this for Pikes Peak and keep Grand Canyon as a "Photo Travel" Location.
 
Monte Carlo. Or as GT knows it: Cote d'Azur. They really need to name it the real name though.

I agree I think it is Monaco?
Also, the list is
Grand Canyon:yuck::yuck::yuck:
Citta di Aria:tdown:👎👎👎:indiff:
Gymkhana:tdown:👎👎👎👎👎👎:boggled::boggled:
Autumn Ring and mini:tdown:👎👎
Chamonix 👎👎👎:ill::guilty:
Cote d' Azur:tdown:👎:yuck:
 
I agree about Ice Arena, on top of it being bland it was the hardest time I have ever had trying to tell where the turn was.

I like Beginner Course and Motorland because they are a fun track to take a low powered car onto. I for some reason liked the Midget race there since all a Midget is, is a glorified go-cart with a bed.
 
I agree I think it is Monaco?

Yes, Monte Carlo is in Monaco. But why, if you agree, did you say that you could live without it? Or were you agreeing about the name change business?

Edit: haha nevermind! I just reread the thread title and its tracks i could live WITHOUT :P ummmmm im going with none. I need them all haha
 
I really hope they get all the past GT tracks into GT5 eventually...

They've got 950+ cars in there, they need to make tracks the focus of DLC.
 
Fuji 2005 GT & 80's: I can understand having several variations of certain tracks but when they're making different tracks with little minor details like removing 1 or 2 corners, that's where I draw the line. Keep 2005 and 90's, get rid of GT and 80's.

that won't happen, mainly because JGTC uses the GT version of Fuji.
 
I can't believe everyone is trashing Monaco. It's easily one of my top 5 favorite tracks

I dont know if there is a street circuit in the world that has a layout that feels more flowing and can give you the "in the zone" feel
 
I also don't understand the Monaco hate. Love that track and its racing history!

I could do without any of the fake tracks EXCEPT Grand Valley Speedway, Trial Mountain, and Deep Forest (my 3 favorite original tracks), even though I like some of the others. Same goes for any circuit style rally track. Rally racing should be all point to point tracks.

Really, if I have Grand Valley, Deep Forest, Trial Mountain, Laguna Seca, Nurburgring, Fuji, and Suzuka I'm already happy. Monaco, Le Mans, and Pike's Peak would make me happier, and anything else after that is just the cherry on top.
 
I could do without LeMans/De La Sarthe,really its kind of boring to me.Also could live without Trial Mountain and Tsukuba,Grand Canyon has long been a thorn in my foot as well.
 
:odd: Are you serious?! Tsukuba is freakin' awesome!

Yeah, I'm serious. Freakin' awesome would describe the Ring, Road Atlanta, Spa-Francorchamps, Macau, Monaco, La Sarthe & Suzuka. Tsukuba is a bit boring...Not to mention that they've put way too many races there, so it gets pretty repetitive in the game.
 
It might seem harsh, but to me they could ditch every "dirt track" they have because rally isn't done on any of them. They are not stages, nor super specials. Boring and unrealistic.

As for the regular ones, i can live without High Speed Ring, Begginer's Course, Seoul, Fuji and Tokyo R246.

Stop picking on Autumn Ring guys, it's my favorite track. 👍
