That's all they need though. Give us ONE DAMN TRACK with individualized timing and an in-lobby leaderboard💡
I second that one matt

I'm disappointed GT6 is coming out so soon. My gt5 account is like a miniature Empire, not looking forward to starting all over again
I didnt start playing online till I was 40/A and 40/B. so I suspect it will take me quite some time to get around to dragging in gt6

I guess I'll be too. But I'm thinking about getting rid of the old x360 soon to get some Gran Turismo money
And back to topic. Dragracing should come, miss the old Las Vegas Drag Strip track from GT4.

I voted only if it is proper drag racing and honestly I may not do much of it even then but if it is anything like the way they did it in Forza then definitely not, It really could not get much more lame than the way it is in Forza 3 and 4.
If on the other hand it was more like in NFS Pro Street I may give it a go. Though the pumping of the throttle to do a good burnout was pretty lame at least they had a burnout, a tree that mattered, possibly blowing an engine or totaling your car and of course some monster wheelies

I hope that if they do drag racing, they do a cross between gt5 @ Indy & forza 4.
Imagine this, you go online and enter the S.S.R.X
Drag lobby , pick your car and enter the course;
You pull out of the garage and into a large parking lot in the middle of SSRX. Here you can cruise around and ogle each others rides, after you sniff butts and decide to throw it down,
You pull up to one of the sets of drag lanes and lock in where a tree counts you down and off you go. At the end of the strip there are return lanes on either side the go back the the parking lot.
The lanes could be organized by length 1/4, 1/2, 1 mile and full SSRX length. The inside of SSRX would provide ample width for multiple lanes of each length.
Just my idea, there's lots of refinements to be had but that's my two cents

I'll be drag tuning regardless of an actual drag strip or not. They'll have the old indy road course in gt6, so I'm not worried. I'm*working on getting a local job so I can actually get online again.

proper quarter-mile, proper burnouts and tire-warming, no rev-limiters on cars that have no business having rev-limiters (blown engines for morons who full-throttle through all gears in a '68 V8) and yes... I'd love to drag race.
A proper leader board that can be edited by me would be nice too, so maybe my drunken night playing in a Veyron wouldn't effectively erase all my data would be nice, too.

Everything they have shown and spoken about can be seen on the GTP news page.

Any track with a straight long enough for the race could be used. On Forza 2 most people would go out on Nurburgring and drag race on the long final straight. On GT5 I would imagine they did it on the special stage track but then if there were to be drag racing as part of the game then it should be an actual drag strip complete with all the things that make drag racing, burnouts, tree, false starts, blown engines, missed gears and of course wheelies. If it is not done right then there is no point in doing it at all and of course if you want to add drag racing it just wouldn't be complete without some top fuel rails and funny cars 
In any case I am not much interested in drag racing within a video game, generaly takes longer to load the race than it does to run it.

Even Japan has a drag racing culture, albeit in a much smaller scale than USA, Australia, Brazil, etc, but it still exists. So PD really has no excuse. I would gladly pay for a drag racing DLC pack if they decided to release it separate to the main game. The Gran Turismo series still has a few things to learn from the old Sega GT game, like drag racing and building your own car from scratch to name a couple!

GT4 had a strip, PD is aware of this discipline. Plus online is packed with drag racing, they'd better not ignore the demand.

Seems we all agree we need some drag racing in GT, even if it's a track and a tree.
The top tracks should be, Infinityon race way, Z Max drag way, and Bandimere Speedway. Even if we don't get drag cars we really could use the track and the time system and a better way to tuner cars that's all i ask. But do we really think this would happen?

Funny how people think that PD owes them something.
I can think of several reasons why PD would chose not to include drag racing:
- It wouldn't be accurate enough to the real deal (would require some major work on the physics)
- It wouldn't be challenging enough (which goes together with the previous point somewhat)
- They would prefer to focus on other parts of the game that needs improvements
- They're simply not very interested in drag racing
