Couldn't find a wish list on this subject and with the news of WRC and NASCAR licenses, who knows what other series Polyphony could have planned. I'll start it off. I chose the Atlantic Championship because GT could use a good lower level open wheel series. I chose ALMS because its my favorite series but maybe they do an ALMS/LMS tie in where if you do well in either of those series you get an invitation to the Le Mans 24 hours. Just putting it out there.

Updated List:

A1GP
American Le Mans Series
Asian Touring Car Championship
Atlantic Championship
Australian Touring Car Championship (pre-1993)
Brazil V8 Stock Cars
Brazil V8 Pickup Racing Championship

Codemasters has the F1 licence, and GT really is not the game for F1, leave it to studio liverpool and codemasters.

DTM
WTCC
JGTC

Yeah if they put 1998-2000 era CART in there I would lose it. I mean I would go nuts. I was considering putting it in my 1st post but I wasn't sure if I should put in a defunct series because well, you can't get an official license from a series that's not around anymore. :( What the hell though why not?

1998-2000 era CART
 
CORR Championship Off-Road Racing
F1 Formula One
Formula Nippon
International Superstars Series
V8 Superstars
 
BTCC (British Touring Car Championship) past and present would be incredible if we had simulated, dynamic weather.

Just imagine Thruxton, Oulton Park, Snetterton, Knockhill, Rockingham, with pouring rain, or light patches damp and dry sections of the track, PD quality.
 
JGTC/SuperGT, offcially licensed, and not just featuring ONE car from a particular year for most of the line up. Eg. GT5 E3 video shows 03 ARTA NSX. GT5 needs to feature cars from later seasons... particularly the 07 model
 
JGTC(surprised they haven't yet with the neumber in GT3 & GT4)
ALMS
IRL(Good mix of oval and road courses)
 
V8 supercars
F1

To be honest though, when it comes to touring cars I dont really care which one I'm driving, its more about the tracks. I'm happier not having V8 supercars, but still having the tracks they race on and just using a different car to race on them.
 
I would agree with all the above posts, but im not to bothered about open wheel racing, but thats just me.

I would like to see more than one car, V8, DTM etc from the same era, the JGTC cars are a little better with a few from the same year.

Did anybody else think the WTCC BMW from GT4 felt too slow??

Anyway heres mine, ALMS,DTM,WTCC,BTCC(Chronos i can almost smell those tracks),V8,JGTC.

Wonder if GT5 will head down the same route with just a few cars from each year, with the possibility of DLC packs of cars from the same year?
 
Grand-Am!!

I would love to see ALMS too, but with Audi and Porsche pulling out, I don't see it doing well in the future. (hope I'm wrong)
 
Pre 1993 (any period prior) Australian Touring Car Championship. I would much rather take a Group A Commodore around Bathurst over a modern V8 Supercar, not to mention classics like the Monaro's, Torana's, Falcons, Chargers etc.
 
Le Mans, both modern and from the sixties.

After driving the Ford GT40 and the Chaparral 2D in GT4, I loved the idea of a classic sixties Le Mans series. Imagine a grid full of 16 classic LM cars... Ferraris, Chaparalls, Fords... I'd love to battle with a GT40, wheel to wheel, around Sarthe with my 2D 👍
 
i dont like open car series, but jgtc and alms series would beuber cool!

Definitely! Cars from the glory days of the Audi 4WD would be great, and most of them were in GT2 so they obviously didn't have a problem getting the relevant licences (for the cars anyway, the BTCC series might be different but they're pretty much on their arse at the moment and could probably do with the cash!).

I'd also love to see DTM/WTCC and Aussie V8s (mainly to get Bathurst).
 
Group B Rally Championship
Detsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft (the old DTM 1984-1996)
Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters (the new DTM 2000-today)
BTCC (especially 1990s; like in TOCA Touringcar Championship for Playstation 1)
ALMS
V8 Supercars
WTCC
JGTC
F1

I agree, if you are going to start a wishlist thread, you have to do it properly, otherwise it is just a spam thread, with no discussion and no real purpose.
 
Correct me if I'm worng but Group B isn't a series, it's a class regulation for the cars and was used in Rally, Sports cars and Touring cars. The Group B rally cars of the 80's were still racing in the WRC and ran alongside Group N and A class cars. Additionally Group B itself was split into 4 different sub-classes largly depending on engine choice, the smaller engined cars were allowed to be a lot lighter than the bigger engined cars.
 
-> Here's some:

- Super Taikyu Championship
- Targa Tasmania
- Asian Touring Car Championship
- A1GP
- FIA Group N

+Optional+
- D1 Grand Prix
- Formula Drift
