I would of liked a track with more driving skill, but after trying it online I haven't stopped driving on it, not looking forward to my next drive on nurburgring .
 
Oh man that night.... Such a beautiful night scenery... This course is amazing

It's much better at night. The blue lights give the first half of the track an eerie beauty. I wish there were some of those pretty lights toward the end.

If this is what GT fans wanted....the future games are in trouble. People knocked Nascar for oval racing but love this new track that requires no skill at all. What gives?

I have to agree. This track is far from exciting. Its design lacks imagination and inventiveness. I'm not against a loooong straight but why didn't they make some sort of Complex String on the way back? This is how you really put a car to the test: take it to the limit. Apart from the speed and acceleration data, the most fun I draw from it is setting up one-lap Nascar races in Arcade Mode. But that's about all...

Just take a look at the Test Track in Project CARS, unfinished as it is, and try to convince me that "Route X is the best thing since sliced bread":

LOL!

No it isn't.

Do you even know how good sliced bread is and how normal this is?
 
Sorry, Highspeed Ring for me. I don't see anyway to get a more perfect test track. Highspeed straight, Highspeed curve, brake and accelerate into a highspeed turn. Low speed S turn with hot acceleration out of it; into another highspeed curve. You'll know everything you need to know about the vehicle after a few laps on HSR.

Very nice track for an in your face; get out and drive hard track! If you love Nurb, you'll at least like this track!
 
^ Now that's a test track! Awesome layout. PD take notes.
 
This is the kind of results you get when a dev pays attention to what gamers want and acts accordingly. More often than not, it seems to me that Kaz and PD only care about what they have in mind, even if this is not what GT players have been expecting all the time. Plus, I hate their opacity as compared with SMS's totally cool and transparent approach.
 
I think it's a great track. My kids got GT5 Christmas '10 and only played it a few times. Since the Route X DLC me and my 10 year old son have been double teaming people with GTRs there. He has also has started his own acct. and started the game over again. I can't knock it.
 
Its a great track, especially in high power cars like the Ford GT and ZR1, the scenery is great to, especially at night. It's no Spa or Nurburgring, but it's still a decent track.
 
The one drawback to this track is that it's just a oval and driving it for four days and nothing else has made me a bad circuit driver and I can't drive properly, it's annoying.
