When you had a tablet that could run it was actually very good in the short time it was available. Still limited in many ways, but I wouldn’t call it anywhere near the realm of bad.
As far as inclusion in GTS? I don’t think it will happen. Large, un-optimized render paths in the environments might be too much work for PD’s plans on the PS4. BUT, I don’t think we’ve seen the end of the course maker in the franchise as a whole, and I’d put money on seeing it pop up in the PS5 iterations.

Stupidly Gt6 track editor was working with the Gt6 servers and when they shutdown the servers you cant access to those section of games. I had great times when driving on those custom tracks and its gone.Well, it's been a long time, I didn't remember this detail ! I was really excited to try 6 again and make funny tracks !

How long has the server for GT6 been operational ?
This only to know what the server lifetime of GT Sport will be on air .

Considering that all of the courses in Gran Turismo Sport have pre-baked lighting, I doubt we will see a Course Maker feature return anytime soon. Either lighting would have to be done in real-time and possibly contrast rather poorly to the other courses in the game, or lighting would have to be calculated and baked on-the-spot after the creation of the course on the console itself (or sent to a server for processing), which isn't currently feasible for either option. Considering how long it takes the developers to bake in lighting into a course, having to do so for thousands of uniquely generated courses and figuring out proper algorithms for such- it isn't really doable at this time.
I'd love to see the feature return, though, as I enjoyed it in both Gran Turismo 5, despite players' criticisms, and Gran Turismo 6. I did enjoy GT5's sheer randomness of the courses that would get generated; you could generate crazy ones that have unorthodox driving lines, extremely sharp corners, or absurd elevation changes where going full-speed would launch you into the air and into the barrier if you weren't careful; the variety of layouts was also better. I also enjoyed the feature in GT6, despite its shortcomings and taking nearly two years to release even since it was printed on the back of the game's case upon release.
A few members here developed some tools that allowed you to create some truly unique courses, even some old favorites:
I would like to suggest that if the feature would be returning, we should have both a course generator and a course maker, and have the course making tools done either online in-browser, or (preferably) available in the game for all players to access and use.

Is that Landstrasse from NFS High Stakes?

Indeed it is! I'd have a screenshot for you from a replay I saved if I weren't too lazy to take one; the time of day settings for Eifel allowed you to get a cast of sunlight that's similar to the original course.
