Any plans to bring back tracks from previous GT games?

Ignorance strong on this one? WTF are you on about? Real world tracks are usually very carefully designed for proper racing, the best world tracks are an assured success for improving the game.-> ...
^ Go play/buy a different game then.
^ I rather pay for PD to improve on sound quality than to add real world circuits instead IMHO. Returning old GT tracks is cruicial for replayability and longetivity of the game itself for little to nothing being spent on licensing and etc. Plus the original/old tracks is what make GT great in the first place. PD can only create stunning original tracks than most developers I recall.
~> The ignorance is stong on this one.
Yes, right, both, of course... but then people should not complain to PD "re-using old stuff from older GT games" and indeed if we get a brand new track that was not in any older GT game you get the feeling of getting MORE.
Real world tracks are very carefully designed for proper racing, if you dont like them, thats odd.
Also nostalgia can make our minds get distorted a bit. Midfield Raceway, the 2nd most voted old track here... I played it some days ago on the PS2 and I think its such an overrated, short and boring track with a simple "8" shape. Nothing special with that track.

The point is that people like what they like, not that they don't like what they don't know. Sure, more tracks would be wonderful, but we already know the classic GT tracks, and we want them back!

I can say the same about some tracks around the world. Don't get me wrong, I love some real live tracks but we can't enjoy all the same.
I rather have an update to Seatle, Midfield or SSR11 than to add some circuit that to mean nothing to me. Yes, GT6 is a simulator, but it's still a game, and in the end a game is for having fun.

Thats exactly why I think its better to add completely new tracks, it's more fun to learn new tracks that we haven't raced on before.

Depends on who you are talking to... 
For me, yes, new is fun, but familiar is even better for close racing.

I personally find most of the real world circuits in this game boring. Their main focus is on how much power you have. While handling is still fairly important, in most cases an okay-handling car with blistering straight line speed will outdo a car with amazing handling but subpar acceleration.
On the other hand, GT Original circuits are oftentimes more technical, and they range in their emphasis on the blend between speed, handling, and braking.

I REALLY have a problem with the 'Nurb F-1 tracks for mostly THAT reason!

This is probably one of the issues that has no footing for not being addressed. GT made the tracks, no reason why they shouldn't be in the game.
And let's face it, if we are talking about numbers, including all the tracks that were made for the game will boost all the numbers in the right places.
Surely...
Again, this kind of thing makes no sense to me. The work has been done making them, we want them...include them.

Even Tsukuba, in evenly matched lower powered cars, is tremendous fun! It's not the track or the cars, it's the drivers!

I have to admit that Tsukuba still ends up being plenty fun when I begin racing on it. Unfortunately, Forza overused it a bit too much, and that soured me on it a little.

Yeah, I never touched the 4 and 9-hour races..... That just seemed like masocism.....

-> Plus producing real world tracks require ample amounts of money (for licencing) and tons of production time replicating some of these 'sacred' grounds. While producing these iconic original tracks require minimal to no potential expenses!
-> And you do know not just these Original tracks were botched from PD:
1. Suzuka West (w/ Bike Variation)
2. Valencia
3. Fuji '80s
4. Fuji '90s
5. Pikes Peak
6. Sonoma Raceway (aka. Sear/Infinion Raceway w/ Bike Variation too)
-> And some of its forgotten variations of familiar circuits:
- Suzuka Bike
- Tsukuba Bike
-> I share the same sentiment above. The way PD designs real world tracks can result mostly a boring specticle compared to its own creations. 👍
Mid-Field '90s
Mid-Field '00s
-> I somewhat agree on the '00s version from GT4. But I'll let the other guys defend this one.
-> I'd say PD should explore more variations of tracks that we currently have. I for one would like to see more variations to Monza for one, the Bugatti Circuit at Sarthe or the mind-numbing high speed enbankment of Fuji '70s!
Bugatti Circuit @ Sarthe
Tsukuba Circuit 2000 Short
...so much that we grew hating on it. lol
-> But it's so funny that this specific variation above was never featured in GT ever!!! Yet we got the Bike Variation on Tourist Trophy...
^ I was stating the naiveness of your account and at the same time defending the value of these many tracks. They deserve much need recognition and truly need their return.
^ But in a way can be a bit boring & tedious. And sometimes PD can be at fault on this.

^ I beg you pardon!? Distort? Really!? I bet whenever you play GT, you tend to avoid original tracks unless you have to. So meaning to say a person like me and most of the GT/TT racing family have distorted minds!? You're funny!
^ To you it may be, but Midfield especially it's '90s variation is a dream to drifters (I bet you're not one of them) for both beginners and pros alike! I have seen endless Youtube videos relating to GT2 & GT3 uploads in relating to Midfield drifting like it was a D1GP and Formula D having a world war!

^ You will get them in due time. Remember, PD's team is miniscule (both physically & financially) compared to Turn10, some PC sims, or any other developers from EA & Codemasters. Why are other GT gamers still waiting for Porsche for crying out loud, but thats another topic. It takes manpower & money to make it all happen!

Tsukuba can be even shorter? What is this sorcery?
Anyway. I really miss GT3 SSR11. That track was amazingtaculous.

I miss both. I don't know whether I miss GT1 (where you start driving below the highway above) or GT3 layout more.

Suzuka West & Tsukuba Short would be bonus tracks, they essentialy exist in the game already, it would seem that it would take but a short time to add, rework the AI lines, adjust & remove some camera position, start/finish etc., much less than even the original courses.
Like to have both original & real world tracks, but would really like to take a second chance at driving on SSR11 with newer physics & graphics.

I love them both. The only difference is 90's has two gentler left handers and a gradual S-turn where as '00s has a hairpin and fast chicane. I would love to take the 97T or X2014 Jr. around both of those. That would be scary.-> ...
^ SSR11 '90s is simply godly of a city track! 👍
'90s (GT1)
'00s (GT3)
^ The '00s seems like meh...
