Tracks 5.0
------ ---
This Little Section will tell you the Tracks with a few tips (if I have any...)
In the Europe/Australian Version there are 6 tracks almost all are reversable
and some have variations.
________________________________________________________________________________
Daytona International Speedway/Daytona - The Road Course
Location: America
We will start with the Easiest Track the Daytona International Speedway, this
track is a slightly apexed-oval, it is piss easy and it allows you to see
some of the fastest speeds. In it's basic form it pulls no punches but it has a
Variation, Daytona - The Road Course now things get interesting, this variation
DOES pull punches, it has several sharp turns on tight roads, the difficulty is
quite different where someone like me finds it quite hard some may find it not
so hard, in all an Easy Track normally with a Difficult Variation.
High Speed Ring
Location: Fictional
The next Easiest track is the High Speed Ring, this track is very basic, with a
few turns and a tunnel. Tunnels in GT5P are interesting as when you enter them
the lighting effects change and when you exit them they change as if your eyes
are adjusting the effect on it's own is the best lighting i have ever seen
(even beats The Darkness), this in turn presents a problem, if not prepared you
can come out of a tunnel blinded temporarily and hit the car in front or miss
the idle line for the turn, it is not a huge problem but presents an interesting
effect. This track is reversable and you will see it often as a bulk of races
take place on it.
Eiger Nordwand
Location: Switzerland
Now we get to the more challenging tracks, the Eiger Nordwand, while many would
say it is more challenging then the others I feel unless you missed GTHD you
should have played this track a fair bit already as it is the track directly
from GTHD. This track is reversable (Uphill/Downhill) and is filled with twists
and turns, a lower geared car will find it a breeze as you will never get up to
high speeds as there is no straight, Drift is also great here if you are skilled
enough
Suzuka Circuit/Suzuka East Short Course
Location: Japan
This Course is pretty tricky with many twists and turns, however due to it's
easy variation i rank it as lower then Fuji (see below), in the Variation you
will have no trouble with it as it is a few consucutive corners and no real
surprises, in full Circuit it is a different kettle of fish, be prepared for
fast sections that suddenly turn into tight corners, some corners can be taken
at quite high speeds but require tight controlling to make sure you don't come
off your intended line and into the dirt. Course is Reversable plus Variation.
Fuji Speedway
Location: Japan
This course I would rank as just as tricky as Suzuka Circuit, get ready for
tight corners and fast handeling, one of the hardest parts is judging when to
brake when coming out of the long straight, too soon and you lose time, speed
and position(s) too late and you'll overshoot the corner, this course is
deceptive at the best of times but tackle it while not in the right frame of
mind and you might as well put on dirt tyres (not included unfortunatly) and
call yourself a rally driver. Reversable.
London City Track
Location: England
This course is by far the trickiest, sure it seems simple but when you add the
speed of the track and many of the corners are almost hairpins you got a
combination for disaster, and if that wasn't enough it is a street track so it
is tight-as, bewary of this course, it may take a lot of practice to master but
if you have skill it will be not much different to several city courses in older
GT games. Reversable as well.
