Which real life tracks do you want to see in GT5?

SagarisGTB · Aug 13, 2005

Piccolo Madonie. Look it up, anyone who knows targa florio and its great history would jump for joy.

Also, Hungaroring. Its like a mini nurb, and alot of F1 drivers really like it. It may not be the funnest place to watch races but its a great place to race.

The reports on seeing PD at nurb GP track is expected as the nordshliefe is in GT4 but not very exciting. The track is actually one of the least favorite tracks among the F1 drivers. Kind of Ironic beeing as it may, the nordschliefe is a thrill ride.

F1 racers like Spa, Suzuka, Silverstone, Hungaroring and Imola.

Fans like Monaco, Spa and Silverstone.

Mugello is also a driver favorite, but a ferrari lisence would be needed as its owners are the boys from modena.

Estoril would be great, especially with that blood red sky...

As for spain, catalunya and valencia are the ones to get. A barcelona city circuit would be cool especially in one of the park regoins of the city.

Tor poznan, its where I grew up so ... ya.

Paul Ricard for testing. All 22 versions of the track though? Maybe just the main version with the long straight will do.

And heres my full list, you guys already named a bunch of these already though.

That red sky is nuts... But lord knows we could use more varied lighting on the tracks (as well as afternoon, morning and night versions of Sarthe and Nurburg... for that full 24 hour experience!)

That paul ricard track is cool from above. the track above it is huge! 👍 and that blood red sky scares the crap out of me :nervous:

(I've never seen the sky that color nor did I thought it was possible). it just the strangest thing I've ever seen. :ill:

what racing(televised or not) is being held down there?

christofire · Aug 23, 2005

I'd love to see some proper speedway ovals in there, along with some British tracks and more real-world tracks in general.
Donington GP circuit is so lovely and flowing, you get a great rhythm.
Cadwell Park is a real rollercoaster of a track, very 3D, although it's a bit tight and twisty for serious hp cars.

However, if GT5 is going to be worth anything it's got to have the Isle of Man TT Mountain Course. It's in the TT Superbikes game, so getting the data into a PS2 game is not impossible (maybe they could licence the track data?). I've ridden round the course IRL on "mad sunday" and there truly is nothing like it. Some sections are smooth, some are extremely bumpy, there's high speed sections (up on the Mountain) and technical sections (Ballacrane to Sarah's cottage).

As a race course it's got so much history (98 years of racing as of 2005), and each year there's rumours it'll be the last. To have it preserved in a game so well polished as Gran Turismo would be fantastic, even if you can't ride motorbikes around it. Licence test - Ariel Atom around the TT course, anyone?

well, the drag strip has the NHRA *something or other* Nationals, and that is nationally televised.

as far as the road course, its mainly club meets (porsche, bmw etc) and classic car meets but they do have SCCA sanctioned events. Last time i went they had GT class race going on.

I would like to see the Estoril track

would love to see the road course course. that would be awesome. are there any pictures of it?

Bones Brigade · Aug 25, 2005

pics of pacific raceway.

turns 5-7
the whole back sid eof the course is pretty much undulating chicanes

front stretch
the straight is about a mile with the kink in the middle.

down the hill to 3A
the hill starts right after a long 180 degree turn. during the exit essentially.

3A-3B
looks fun.

3a-3b

3a

i was gonna find a track map, but this is better

Detroit street course:

That would be terriable. I can just imagine the announcer on the course.

"Here come the S2000 around the corner being chased by a 100 angry UAW workers with torches, but whats this the car has falling into a huge pot hole. Well I guess the race is over...holy s@#$ I'm being shot at."

Woolie Wool · Aug 30, 2005

Real races were held at Detroit iin the 1980s.

Joey D · Aug 30, 2005

Oh I know and up until a few years ago they races on Belle Isle, but those days are gone and Detriot is just run down.

HokenhiemHockenheim like this?(at least I think considering the many times I misspelled it)
Washington DC yep, definetly. funny how those people down there are used to hearing helicopters and airplanes flying close to the homes, but they find the racing at the facility too loud.
Road Atlanta they don't really need it,they have to have it.

I WANT TO SEE THIS TRACK IN GT5(visionGT). AND ALL OTHER SOVIET TRACKS TOO!!! GranTurismo FOREVER!!! The BEST!!! KAZUNORI!!! HELP ME PLEASE!!! 👍

Freddy · Sep 3, 2005

Already I've seen tonnes of tracks that should all be considered by PD.

I must admit I like some of the old fantasy tracks.
Bring Back:
Tahiti Road.
Grand Valley Speedway.
Trial Mountain.
Deep Forest.
Apricot Hill.
Red Rock Valley.
Grindelwald.
SSR5.

If these tracks were back I would be very happy. Some of the fantasy tracks are just boring.

I would also not like to see new oval tracks but maybe have them replaced by 2 real oval tracks. Example Super Speedway and Test Course could get replaced by 2 oval circuits (most likely nascar ones).

Road America also sounds great as well as Bathurst. Some F1 tracks would be nice but I;,m not sure they'll be aloud to put them in the game.

Just my opinion.
