Wouldn't it be good if they brought out a racing game with 16 of the
greatest circuits in the world? What should they have? I would have:
Old Interlagos
Old Beournos Aires
Clement Ferant
Le mans de sarthe (24 hours track)
Nurburging Nordschlife
Silverstone
Bern Bremgarten
Spa Francochamps Old and new
Zandavot (Old layout)
Indianapolis (Oval)
Osterighting (Old Austria)
Suzuka (Old Layout, without casio Triangle)
Pescara (Longer than the Nordschlife!)
Monaco
Any other thoughts?
Fantasy list of the world's greatest circuits for a sim
A poster listed 16 great circuits he would want in an ultimate racing game, mostly historic road courses plus Indianapolis. Others pointed out that GPL already had most of them as add-ons, suggested Bathurst, which had just been released for GPL, along with Mosport, Laguna Seca and banked Monza, and debated whether ovals belonged.
Automated summary.
well I would have a chance on one of them anyway. lolol

Besides that I think that brand hatch is much more interesting than

Indianapolis has more history than any other racetrack I can think of in the
world. Not to mention it's one of the hardest ovals to master. How many times
have we seen champions and former 500 winners have crash--particularly big
crashes--just in practice at Indy? That kinda says something to me.

I know I've seen someone saying they are doing it, but I cant recall
who and know nothing of the status of the project.
Might have been right after GPLEA released their tools and the project
might have folded by now.

OK:
Mt. Panorama, Bathurst
Mellaha, Tripoli
Montlherey, France
Banked Monza
Solitude, Stuttgart
It's going to be a long world championship!

And what about Mosport? Sacrilege!
Sorry, about Bathurst, Laguna Seca and Mosport. Indianapolis was
included because it is one of the hardest ovals in the world. Ovals are also
inportant in World Motor racing. If not Indy, what about Fontana, the
fastest track in the world

I'd rather have Donnington or Brands Hatch than Silverstone though.
What about the Isle of Man TT course? (I know its for bikes, but its
still a great course!)

I disagree. I think Ovals are important in testing, but not racing.
You'll be telling me that it's cool to bank a car, wedge the steering
left and pad the right hand side of the cockpit next :-)
And in reply to the original post, I'd lose Silverstone in favour of
Donington, personally.
I'd probably also put Sepang in there too.
