GT5 tracks that look like other things

[TouringBubble]

Man ... that hurts. I'm gonna go cry now. lol

 

[TenEightyOne]

Doesn't the Rockingham layout (IRL) look like a cowboy hat... or did I dream that?

I see the OP's point - who knows...!

 

[TouringBubble]

I'm fairly certain that courses are not designed to look like specific objects/animals/etc. Some may be I guess, but it's essentially the same as a Warshak test or looking at clouds. The mind thinks in shapes and pictures and we can easily draw associations between similar shapes.

I think you're probably right (but you mean Rorschach test), for example I always think that Monaco looks like a striking serpent and Silverstone GP looks like a pair of Y-fronts.

Does that make me crazy?

I never heard anyone say it was better when it's shorter.

Bwahaha!

 

[SCUD77]

Or you can look at all the tracks like Ben Spies does....

But can he beat Lorenzo ?

I once owned a F1-game (F1 1995 or something), including a special track which had the shape of a Formula-car (with wheels and spoilers), and I liked it very much!

👍
I remember this! It was 'Formula One', the first F1 game on the PS1. You unlocked it after winning the championship.

The bonus track form F1 '97, the cool Wipeout inspired city track would make a cool GT track!

He beat him in Indy on the satellite bike. Love to see what he does on the factory M1. 👍

 

[Coxis]

The 'ring will now always be in my mind as the Nur'boar'ring.

👍

Also, that's some imagination right there with the iPhone.

Tell me I'm not the only person who's noticed this.


A profile view of a bear... running. RAWR

The pit straight is his back, the set of corners on the left are his hind legs, the long straight and corners on the bottom right are his deformed front legs, and the corner on the top right is his head.

I don't even know anymore, man.

 

[Cowboys965]

I don't see it.

 

[HippieGiraffe]

A bear rug, perhaps.

 

[deejayy2k]

can i have some of what you are on ?

 

[C-ZETA]

I've noticed Nurburgring GP/F looks like a runner, and Suzuka looks like a key, but I can't see the bear in Trial Mountain.

 

[Cowboys965]

Chamonix mini looks like a bird wing
I also think Fuji looks like a Thompson SMG

 

[Doog]

Please elaborate on this theory of yours, Midnight Snacks.

roar!!!!!!!!!

 

[MercilessOne]

Since we're on the same subject... Laguna Seca looks like the side of a guy's head looking up.

^A persian.

 

[Midnight Snacks]

Has my entire GT life been a lie?

 

[another_jakhole]

YUP! ^^^

I really, really can't see a bear.

Looks more like a rugged/overly stretched t-shirt.

Oh, I can see that. It kind of looks like a guy wearing a chef's hat. lol

Glad I'm not the only one who's seen this.

Some I noticed:

Circuit de la Sarthe sort of looks like a guy with his mouth open if you look at it vertically. Just look at how the map is displayed in the game to see what I mean.

Nur looks like a pig's head.

Grand Valley is shaped like the continental United States.

 

[JamboGT]

Really? Oh dear.

 

[CSLACR]

I agree with the nurb looking like a pigs head, and WOW I never noticed that..

Trial Mountain, no bear.
High speed ring = Bear.

 

[C-ZETA]

High speed ring = Bear.

Yeah, I've always thought High Speed Ring looked like a panda.

 

[HippieGiraffe]

Yeah, I've always thought High Speed Ring looked like a panda.

I thought polar myself.

I don't know what kind of bears you have seen, it looks nothing like a bear, at least I can't see it. Although nurb looks a lot like a pigs head lol

 

[deejayy2k]

i know its not in GT5 but has anyone seen what the old snetterton track looks like

autumn ring mini looks a little like a crude map of Britain (minus Ireland)
