Would you want some? Cars? Laps?
I personally would want a 60 lap GT300 JGTC at Spa.
 
Either Spa or Monza 1000km. I'd suggest LMP's in Spa and GT1 cars in Monza.
 
Yeah that would be nice i dont care what tracks just get us some.

They should have the SuperGT races held at Suzuka and Fuji replicated, including the Fuji Sprint Cup. For the non-sprint races I think they should introduce 2 categories racing simultaneously broken down two 8 each:

- 8 GT500 cars (this includes the old standard cars and excludes the Fairlady Z due to the blatant power advantage/inflation)

- 8 GT300 cars (this includes the old standard cars and also racecars of simular performance levels to GT300 cars due to lack of depth)

Would be cool. At the moment, if you want a Spa endurance so bad you can try to run a 60 lap race in arcade mode, A level (remember to max out AI aggressivity for a competitive race). The max allowed is 99 laps. Set damage on and tyres wear/fuel consuption. It wont give you credits, but if you want a long race at Spa, this is your best bet at the moment.
 
I would love to see some GT-Mode Spa races. Endurance or not. However an endurance race kind of emphasizes the lack of a 24-hours cycle.
 
Spa, 50 laps, F1 cars
 
Why not F1 cars, I regularly join an online lobby like this, F1 cars all aids on, it is just so much fun trying to get the best line and improving our lap times, just like in real F1
 
I'd love some online enduros, any track, any car. I really like 2 or 3 different classes - like the American Le Mans Series: 4 hrs, 3 classes, changeable weather, day to evening - and a league championship. That would be perfect!
 
I'm thinking a Daytona endurance, Monza and Fuji 1000km. 5,000,000 credit reward? :p
 
fuji sgt race, 1000 km of spa
 
I think mid-length races that take ~60-90 minutes to complete would be fine, no need for 4-5 hour endurance races. I'm fine with any car type and any track, so long as the restrictions in place make the race reasonably competitive.
 
Long online enduros would probably see people drop out semi-regularly as 'life' intervenes. As tezster said, 60-90 minutes might be nice.
 
I want medium range races so 20-50 laps lasting about an hour I find the endurance races a bit boring but in the short ones I hit my zone and the race ends.
 
HKS racer

That is one way(which i have done), but i just don't like the real mix bag of cars, i want PD to make it, so you have cars from the same class, and win something from doing it.
 
50 laps of spa maybe but not F1 cars... Pescarolo Courage and that kind of stuff can't remember what class that is tho... maybe 2 million prize money?
 
Not everyone will agree with my first one, regardless:

Daytona 500 at Daytona (or 200 to keep it short) NASCAR stock cars.
Kart Endurance at Autumn Ring Mini, Karts.
Like the Wind at SS Route 7, Open
Vintage Car Endurance at Laguna Seca, Vintage Cars

I don't know it makes sense, they have the Le mans 24 hours, so why not daytona 500?
 
Knowing PD they would add another Tsukuba race.
 
sure but I bet they will give us a race on Tsukuba
 
I want a 300km-500km race for every track with the field being a user-selected PP/era.
 
where are the classic "all night" races? I want 70 laps on SSR5 and 35 on SSR7 (the real challange)

The real challenge? :), before the new dlc we used to do LeMans and Nür 24hr 1hr races at night. Was great fun until you realise the person up front has the racing line on:ouch:.
 
So To go from 12 to 1 in 55 laps would mean a PP difference of how much -100pp to say - 200pp from the top car. As seasonals are not races there catch up challenges only.
And give the lead car about 2 lap head start. With fuel and tire wear disabled That way the AI wont have to pit stop. Because seasonals have the pit lane disabled.
 
If we got our first-ever B-Spec Seasonal series, why not Seasonal Rallying or even... Seasonal Endurances? Anyone who knows me here on GTP and who read JGTS (my GT-themed blog) know that I like to try to extend and expand upon things. So let's do things...

I wouldn't be surprised to see a Seasonal Endurance. Question is... do you have like five endurance races lasting about 30 to 60 minutes? Three endurances lasting 60 minutes to 90 minutes? Or what? Also, what limitations would you have? Do you limit things to certain kinds of cars, manufacturers, certain PP limitations? Do you limit races to time or laps, or do you limit things to laps or time (whichever comes first) like with Petit Le Mans? I don't think Seasonals have to be anything longer than 30 minutes. And especially if you win such a Seasonal, it would mean a hell of a lot for you to make money and gain experience. I'm still stuck at about Level 35 A-Spec and 25 B-Spec.

So I wouldn't be surprised to see something similar to an Endurance Seasonal for GT5. There is a very good possibility we MIGHT see an Endurance Seasonal. How it's structured and how you regulate everything remains to be seen.
 
Any endurance is always welcome to me. I'd like to see some more realistic laps in the seasonals. I'm tired of 5 Laps, 5 Laps, 5 Laps, etc.
