what is your most hated track? personally i cringe when is see my self on laguna seca its the small jump and tight downhill S turn that i just can't seem to master. i either brake too soon or too late and hit the wall.

Easy peasy... Laguna Seca!! That 'S' turn is hell!! I seem to do the same as you Rex!! And then that sharp turn just before the end!!

Although i'm told it's the track of champions or something and true GT gamers love it..... mad......

Grand Valley Speedway because its boring ...

Yep Fluff! the Corkscrew IS the challenge, never boring.

Rex release accelerator on 'second' climb , then only brake in a straight line, when steering in to the left corner smoothly hit the accelerator, release, steer right and accelerate again into the next left corner .... have fun ! :biggrin:

[color=purple][b]Laguna Seca - sweet ;)

squanto - Grand Valley Speedway is the perfect testing ground for new car settings. *lots of hard braking corners - lots of high speed corners and a very high overall spead - if there was ever a track to test your suspension this is it.

there are no bad tracks in GT2 - the only bad thing is "forgetting" to put the R11 in it :( *but this has been rectified in GT3 (thank f***!!)

I always use Red Rock Vallley for that purpose, together with Apricot Hill.
THe first one for high speed cornering and drifting in those corners, also good for downforce settings.
Apricot hill has the flat highspeed corners to give the right touch for suspensionsettings... camber ride height etc... ;)

Right, I hate Autumn Ring Mini. Too small for powerful cars. For that 'S turn', release the accelarator when you get to that overheard sign, when you get to the turn, just tap the brake and glide through it. Easy.

Hey fluff!

That was me who said Laguna was the track of champions!!! ;) I love that circuit & I've mastered it with the Viper GTS R. I'm usually taking the last bend before the climb to the "S" bent at about 200-220Kmph & I'm flat out all the way up to the crest of the hill. Staying in the middle of the track & completely straight. Lock up the wheels & then floor it throught the bends when your at about 80k......sweet man..... I can't be touched. It's my killer circuit.....

I think Rome is the best though but my least favorite would have to be.... well I don't really have a least favorite..... oh well Autumn Mini ring... too ###### small!!! ;)

Ahhhhh so it was you BarOChoc ;)

I agree on Rome aswell, it was the first track which i can actually say i mastered! I was always guarenteed of winning with it, Tahitti Road is also a favourite of mine. *

Tahiti Road really bugs me. There's no slowdown when you go on the grass. I'm always thinking "Don't go on the grass, I'll lose the race", and my friend just drives on the grass and beats me.

My hardest Track, but one of my favorite to race has to be .............You guessed it, Lagna Seca. *The hill/S-turn isn't to hard in a MR car like the GT-40.
The track that I have mastered is the Seatle Long course with ANY car.

[color=black] [b]Guy's have you ever watched racing Cars & Bikes on Laguna Seca????

I was watching the World SuperBike Championships this morning in Laguna Seca.

It's such a fine circuit. You'd want to see the bikes comming through that notorious "S" Chicane.

Sweeeeeeeeeeet.

I will drive there some day even if I have to do it on a moped!!!!! :biggrin:

Ive seen cars and i have to say it was as BarOChoc says sweeeeeeeet! Though most any race that ive ever seen was awsome. I absolutly hate the Pikes pike uphill climb. its so hard and you have to race an escudo. I beat it once.

I absolutely cannot stand Autumn Ring Mini. You cant go very fast and right when you do(if you do) you have to slam the breaks and will probably drive out into the dirt.

Although i dont like Autumn Ring Mini ill have to say im still pretty good at it. I dont like because you cant just lay the pedal on the floor like you can on most other races.

I hate the Rome Long Course because it just seems too boring and too easy because there is no run off area, like real life Monaco. There are too mant tight corners which are hard and not any fun, unlike the Laguna Seca Corkscrew turn. By the way, does anybody know how to negociate the last corner in Laguna Seca without braking to 30kp/h, because more than once, I have lost the race due to the last corner:)

My favorite stage is R11 and Laguna Seca, Hard turns are the things that get me hyped. Speed isnt the deel for me. I really hate Red Rock Valley

Seattle Long Course is my favourite(so many long straights leading into a sharp turn,&#36w££t).
I don't like Special Route Stage-5 that much.......but then again it's very challenging.
Laguna Seca.......BRILLIANT!!!!The best way to negotiate that S-bend is to, accelerate to the max arond the turn at the bottom of the hill, slow down just a bit at the overhead sign, then brke hard at the peak of the hill just at that tiny little sign at the right, then accelerate at the first turn into the second turn and you're away.
The best way to get around that last agonising turn is to stay to the outside and brake hard at the entrance to the pits and then accelerate out wide of the turn (because i've often hit the inside of that wall and lost the race cause of it), u will more than likely hit the barrier but that doesn't do much to ur speed, just don't loose control and don't hit the inside wall.;)
