Mine is Nurburgring Norschleife: Audi R8...
Tu just drive around making corners faster and faster... One thing tho. In the real world the last straight is uphill not downhill. And the course is much more up and down... Blind corners etc..

Yeah, that's my favorite course too. There's nothing like hauling ass through the German countryside. My '09 GTR Spec V seems to do pretty good there. That's the car I've driven the most.

I forget the course's name but it has a straightaway of 3.23 miles long. There is nothing like pushing my gt-r (same as bain's) to 230+ miles an hour!!

It's LeMans but they call it Circe De La Sarthe in GT. Yeah, the GTR rules but I'm running alot of Expert and Extreme races against race cars now and it just can't hang with them. But I do want to buy the "Black Mask" edition and fix it up.

Well, when it comes to cars. I'm all about American muscle. Those European cars might have high RPM and might go 0-60 a bit faster. But once I hit third gear its game over. The Corvette ZR1 C6 and the Viper SRT 10 ACR are my favorite cars simply because they have the power, and light weight which is good power to weight ratio, and their engines sound monstrous. The handling is superb and since they are both FR cars, you can do a little bit a drifting on critical turns to help you overtake. My favorite track would have to be Special Stage Route 5, simply because it looks damn sexy. The 24hr Nurburging is pretty damn epic as well. Only reason I dislike because its mostly narrow so unless you get 1st place off the bat, it is very difficult to overtake.


I will say this, the Formula Gran Turismo Championship is a b****. I was able to get all gold, but you have to drive flawless for 20 laps over 6 tracks. Then you have the championship which is a combination of the 6. So 12 in all. Probably the most difficult race I have experienced yet. The cool thing is the last 2 races might have rain, and if that's the case its easy breeze simply because the AI turns into grandma when it rains.

The Circuit De La Sarthe (Le Mont) is annoying as hell. It has to be the most un-leveled track in the game.
