Ach! This has been driving me potty.

Back at the beginning of the month I paid for a download bundle, cars and track and some paint (I think) and I have the cars clearly available to me.

But can I find Spa??

Please, put me out of my misery and tell me what I have to do to access the circuit.
 
No, I looked there - in the Practice area of my home and I went to create a race in the Open Lobby but it's not appearing.

The Mini Countryman and the Lambo are listed in the dealerships, the track isn't listed anywhere I can see.

Do I have to 'activate' it or something?

Thanks for the mighty quick reply!

did you buy car pack 3 and the speed pack?
 
When you start the game, on the main menu there should be a download icon on the far right, you need to activate the products in there before you can use them.

I've just discovered the 'Download History' which shows I bought the Gran Turismo 5 Complete Pack on the 4th of Feb.

Because I hadn't seen this earlier today I also bought the Course Pack Family Upgrade, this evening.

I didn't see big red download buttons but I did see a yellow-ish one today and when I clicked it, said something about activation and it gave me a 'Install completed' message after a brief download (100K).
 
Have you downloaded and activated your track pack DLC in-game? It will not work until you do so. When you first start up the game you want to click the logo circled below.

And after that you just download the track pack and you're ready to go. If you still can't find it, Circuit-de-Spa Francorchamps is located under "World Circuits" since it exists in real life.
 
D'oh! That button looked like an on/off to me. Well, that's my excuse and I'm sticking with.

Just done it and thar she blows!

Many thanks for not chewing of an idiot - paid twice for it so better get my monies worth!

I don't blame you because an on/off symbol would be a straight line instead of the arrow for the download symbol. I think they need to change that to make it less confusing.

That is a spectacular background BTW. How on earth would I go about doing something like that? Can you change the standard GT one? I've done it for my PS3 wallpaper but didn't realise you could do it for the GT background(other than just change the colours)

Thats the game showing random cars from your garage in random places, this one looks like its inside the pit building at Le-Sarthe.

That is what I thought it was (but hoped it wasn't!). It has however ensured that when I buy the LFA it will be that colour at some point in its life.
