Are they bringing back the Test Course from GT4?

[Ericiscoollike]

I was watching the new 2.0 opening and i saw a track that looked pretty similar to the old Test Track on GT4 where you used to test your top speeds. Are they bringing it back?

[noisiaturismo]

It also looks like a highway.

 

[White & Nerdy]

I hope so, it'd be about time.

 

[Paul2448]

Glad I'm not the only one who saw that and hoped it was coming back...

I can just say that I hope it is.

 

[symustafa1996]

It better be coming back.

 

[Jawehawk]

Is it the one showed at the very end of the intro?

[Ericiscoollike]

I want more dirt tracks!

yeh that would be good aswell

 

[Jawehawk]

yeh

ahh, thanks mate.
If they're going to do more dirt tracks, I'd say Pikes Peak would be nice .

 

[stig's helmet]

Hope sooo! Beast track.

+1

The proper test track was awesome! It'd be good for testing top speeds.

 

[The piston]

yeh that would be good aswell

Yeah, Pikes Peak

If you notice, the road has orange numbers which was in test course in GT4

 

[Normalaatsra]

But why would the Test Track have 3 lanes?

 

[Astro_BS-AS]

But the test course in GT4 was bassically a non-official representation of NARDO, in Italy.

This "track" doesn´t resemble the old test course but in the numbers painted.

Maybe a "new" test course, but I don´t think its the old one....

It looks like the eifel or one of those course creator course to me.

This would fit about 8 cars side by side
but then in the 2.0 opening, they are divided into lanes, but then there are only 3 lanes

It looks like the eifel or one of those course creator course to me.

That was my initial thought when I saw the intro, a custom track with a particularly long straight (I've been able to make some long ones).

 

[gtfan4life]

Didn't we get to drag on that course as well? Reading the forum and hearing about the courses of past GT's is killing me. Would love to see them in GT5...

 

[P0UP0N]

I was praying for Midfield Raceway and Red Rock Valley...

 

[A_Higher_Place]

Watch the video again, JUST BEFORE the Mclaren Mp-4's and in slow motion. The X11'' is driving on an orange numbered straight..

 

[Wiegert]

Maybe a "new" test course, but I don´t think its the old one....

It doesn't look like the Test Course that featured in the previous GT games, although it might just be a new version of the track. If that is the case, then here's hoping the Machine Tests make a return as well.


Also, looking at those images, I can't tell what the possible track layout will be. It could be a large oval of a similar size to the Test Course from GT4, or it could even be a massive straight. I'm guessing that it will be the former myself.

Red Rock Valley for sure, I've never driven that track.
