Is anyone else suprised they didn't include a Monza endurance race in the Endurance series of races? There is a 1000Km of Monza in real life which is part of the Le Mans series. Maybe Polyphony had some licensing issues? A Monza endurance could fit in well in the big EXP gap between Level 35 (Le Mans 24 Hour) and Level 40? (Nurburgring 24 Hour)
 
Yeah, that would have been great... I'm suprised PD removed a lot of endurance races from GT4, like Tokyo R246 300km and Fuji 1000km...
 
Would be nice to have more endurance races.

How they forgot one of the biggest endurance races with the 24H of Daytona is beyond me.
 
I find Monza quite boring, sorry to all you guys who love it. I'm not too upset there isn't an endurance race on it.

On the other hand, they have two endurance races on Tsukuba, and that gets boring very quickly too -.-

I'm delighted they forgot that one! :D

But an endurance of Monza would be awesome. It's a shame that all tracks (except SSR7) have pit lanes, but most are never needed.
 
Way too few endurance races.. and the ones there are just boring and dull.. should be a race for each lvl so dull to race same track 5,6 times to gain a level.
 
Add it to the ever growing list of bizarre decisions. Apparantly PD thought two endurance races totalling 13 hours around Tsukuba was a better idea.
 
Two endurance races on Tsukuba is awful. They could have added maybe one or two races between 35 and 40 for sure, mixing up the tracks, giving us drivers something more. I know that a lot of people on this board hate the endurance races, currently have the 9hr paused, I enjoy them. Kinda wish they offered more endurance races for those who enjoy the long grinding race.
 
They needed to put more enduros. But if you don't mind not getting any XP or creds, you could always make one yourself in arcade mode.

12 Hours of Sebring would have been a great stepping stone from the 9-hour Tsukuba event, too. Go 9 hours at Tsukuba, then 12 at Sebring, 24 at Daytona, 24 @ LeMans, 24 @ Nürburgring.

Y'know, it would really make sense to have steps all the way up, with the XP gained from one being *almost* just enough to get to the next one - or maybe you have to WIN the race to gain enough XP to move to the next one. But have a Level 35, L36, L37, L38, L39, and THEN the L40 race. I really don't want to run LeMans half a dozen (or more) times to get from 35 to 40, but I could get interested in running several different events once each to get there!

Replace the 9 hour Tsukuba event with the 1000k at Monza, add Petit Le Mans before Sebring and it seems like a very good progression for the endurance races. The 9 hour Tsukuba enduro is just awful. Why not have an enduro at the kart tracks? I'm pretty sure Bob would clean up with the FGT or X1.
 
9hrs of Tsukuba is just mind numbing .... way too short a track for that kind of race.... to have 2 is just idiotic

A monza race would have been nice .... Spa track inclusion would have been perfect too for a long race since its several miles long

It just goes to add to the lack of realistic events problem ... 144 events to grind 3.5m xp!

Maybe because it would be a bore out. 23 hours 45 minutes of dull tedious left turns. The first 15 minutes would be almost interesting
 
A few enduro's on real world tracks would have been so good. The grand valley enduro is the pits.


Yeah, I've never hated that track until I had to grind the endurance event in A-spec a few times. Now I just avoid it whenever possible, in any series or any event. :(

PLEASE tell me you're joking. The 24 Hours is on the infield road course, not just the oval.
