Hint confirming Spa?

[Strittan]

Spa= spank ?

Spa = spa?

I know this is a bit far fetched, but in the TT rankings, Lucas Ordoñez' name is LucasordonezSPA.
I know SPA could be short for Spain, but ES would be more logical.
It would be a very good hint if this refers to the track playable during the national finals and it's always fun to wonder.
What do you guys think?

You are reading wayyy too deep into this, SPA is obviously Spain. Aside from that, I would think the Belgium Motor Show is a better indicator, and of course GTPlanet's "source", most of the time they are reliable

I agree just didnt want to offend the Americans beacause we all know Europe has the better circuits

I'm not offended in the least.

SPA is SPA.
ESP is Spain. Nobody says SPA if their talking about Spain.

I´m pretty sure it´s SPA Francorchamps

yeah and he would have ES over his car in GT5P online as the abbreviation of the country is from the language they speak in that country not what the country name is in English.

What's interesting is that the gt5 TT ends on the 24th and so does the belgian motor show, so if they announce francorchamps there, it's possible it will be featured in round 2. The timing seems to fit.

An online ID can only be up to 16 characters in length, so LucasOrdonezSPAIN wouldn't fit so he shortened it to LucasOrdonezSPA

Where I come from 'Spa' is slang for retard. I'm not trying to be profound for no reason, just saying..

 

[chriz92]

I think he has just put it in his twitter name because he likes the track and he has raced there in GT4.

 

[Sm0k3:D]

SPA are usual initials of Spain. I know correct way is ES, but SPA is a usual way. Believe me, i'm from spain...

I love Spa circuit. Must be in GT5!!! If not, i will be in some patch.... someday... sure!

So some nerd could make a copy of SPA without having to get permission of the track license holder. Like in Forza you can make a youtube logo yourself but if turn 10 wanted to include a youtube logo already made in the game they would have to get permission from youtube for it to be in the game.
