I just resently brought a dvd called grip video and I have them all but I got the 5th one and it showed touge drifting and I looked cool..... So I want to see what course can I simulate touge drifting..... Some courses iv tryed are Fuji Speedy 2005@ GT( In reverse) because the straight away is pretty high up and the rest of thr track goes down. Another track Iv done it on is El Capiton but the down hill is kinda short but real fun.

Just want 2 know if any other GT drifters are doing touge in the game..... And if so, what courses do you try it on??
 
Costa di Amalfi and Citta di Aria are pretty good, but Trial Mountain and Deep Forest have some 'touge-ish' qualities to them as well as well as allowing for more outright drifting. Those last 2 are a bit wide IMO, but the first 2 are nice and narrow.

The Nurburgring is also very good for that kind of drifting, of course... though it's a bit fast at times, it's pretty narrow and bumpy like it should :)
 
Touge simply means "Mountain Pass", so any track that feels like a rollercoaster ride is the closest you'll get in GT.
 
The Nurburgring is great for the point to point feel, since you don't hit any turn more than once every 8 minutes or so.

Costa Di Amalfi has lots of the tight technical hairpins if thats what you're after, but it's got an odd level of surface traction, so it requires specific tuning from other courses.

El Capitan is nice too.
 
i actually thing that infineon is a good simulation. it isn't really a very thick road surface as well as many elevation changes. it also has a lot of posible lines.
 
The touge's more complicated then that. Touges are a lot more narrower then tracks so none of the circuits in the game can simulate a real touge. They are also bumpy as hell have tight hairpins...

But like the other's said, Costa di Amalfi and Citta di Aria are a good sim.

My fav "touge" in the game would have to be Chanomix. The first part without the snow is a pretty fun drift course/
 
Dragon Range is THE Touge course of choice.

...............Oh, wait a minute that's in Enthusia.......My bad...........GT4: Costa di Amalfi, Citta di Aria, Deep Forest, and El Capitan are good touge courses IMO.

Though nothing can TOUCH Dragon Range with Enthusia's realistic physics.
 
ok well if you want to be that picky then play forza or kaido battle...infineon despite the surroundings is a good mix of corners, varying speeds and agles along with changes in elevation. el capitan is not a touge like course to me. the overall track speed is to great.
 
Costa di Amalfi and Citta di Aria are the only ones that come even close if you ask me. Deep forest is too wide and has runoff. I wish I had a video camera to record some of the roads I was driving last night, cliffs on one side, sheer drops with no barriers on the other, terrible chip seal surface with crumbling edges and millions of dips and bumps, off camber corners, cattle stops and rocks. Though there are plenty of nice parts too. Good times and a challenging drive. I want a track like that in GT5.

That reminds me, I need to go pick up Enthusia, it's probably cheap as dirt now.

Thanks Rsmith!

Nice tracks but the one that really cuts it for me is el capitan.
Reverse or not its all good
 
Oh, btw, there is nothing in GT4 that can instill the sense of dread you get when coming down a steep hill, and realise you're carrying too much speed to scrub off to get a proper line, and somehow manage to swing the ass around, scramble and saw the wheel like a madman, and then do it all again at the next corner.

Dragon Range will be visited more than any other track in Enthusia, I am sure.

I will spend some time unlocking cars and courses, and then I will come back to GT4, and every now and then pop Enthusia back in to get a Touge fix on.

I highly recommend the game for drift freaks.
 
i like costa di amifi reverse....it has a gentle climb and a nice downhill stretch at the end....and it feels a lot more like a narrow road.

But my favorite is Cote D'azur....anyone else drift it besides me?
Cote has almost all blind corners so you have to stare at a wall for a second through most turns....try it out!

I drift at Cote De Azur alot just not the whole thing. I start at th begining of the long left turn after the uphill then I turn around once I reach the tunel then go back down once i reach where I began. Not that bigof a section but very fun.
 
I developed my skills at Trial Mountain, but I'll probably move on to a more narrow course one I've really got my car down. And yes, El Capitan is hella fun.
