Which one of these is your favorite? These three are the quintessential GT tracks (in my opinion), and they've been with us since the beginning.

So, which do you like the best?
 
I prefer Deep Forest Race way. Trial Mountain is annoying, and after doing the 200 km on Gran Valley, I despise that track. I never liked it in the first place. Deep Forest is the most fun for me.
 
I love the pace of deep forest, it's all about conservation of inertia. Just dancing the car around the track. Trial mountain doesn't flow quite as well, but it's also great fun.
 
I love the atmosphere and layout of Deep Forest. But the others are great fun, too.

I depends on the thing I want to test or see, which track I take. Any of the three has its own cool character.

Deep Forest is tight and wavy and the first and last corner need skill and courage.

Trial Mountain ist very rough, like a rollercoaster and has it´s hard sections about hilltops.

Grand Valley is fast and goes into very slow sections out of high speed.
 
Grand Valley by miles. It's GT's signature track as far as I'm concerned. It has the best balance of speed and sharp corners and it's a little longer than the others. If any GT track were to become real, I'd hope it was that one.
 
Trial Mountain then Grand Valley. It would be the other way round if the GT3 version of Grand Valley was in the game though. I've never thought that much of Deep Forest.
 
You forgot SSR5

👍
Except Trial Mountain is my 2nd or 3rd.
SSR5 is also 2nd or 3rd.
(of GT made tracks)
 
Love all 3, but Grand Valley by just a bit, then Trial Mountain, then Deep Forest.

The GV 300 only made me love that track more. (4 hours at Tsukuba in a Miata will make me hate it, so I'm not doing that one.)
 
I voted for Deep Forest, but Trial Mountain is a close second.

Deep Forest just has a near perfect flow. If you take just the right line there, you can be incredibly fast. Only thing bad about this track is the name, it's the least professional sounding of the three. Trial, while it's flow is not quite as amazing, the elevation changes are great fun and the scenery quite beautiful. Great photomode track! Grand Valley has never really caught on with me, the scenery is take it or leave it (excluding that blue bridge :drool:), and the flow is average, but nothing like the other two.
 
Oh yeah, the good old Grand Valley Speedway... it's a very selective track with all kinds of corners and its a real car killer if your car isn't well tuned. Specially "understeery" machines. These will be killed in 3 laps on GV.

Trial mountain is awesome because of the bumpiness all around and Deep Forest... I used to hate it until GT4, but then I learned to love it because of the atmosphere and the whole "dance" that its required to do a good lap on it, like someone said above. :)

There actually was some company, which had plans to build this track in real life, and just to further "web" this thought, just imagine they went for it and we would see F1 on it today-a man can dream...:eek:

I mis Midfield, but the 3 in this poll are easily my favorite 3 of GT5, Trial comes first though, but I agree, Deep Forest 'flows' the best.
 
Gran Valley Speedway, of course. Signature track of GT series. Besides its bridge-tunnel combo its a very feasible track.
 
Out of those 3, i'd say Trial Mountain is last. That one section on the front straight that is so easy to cut just ruins it. They should put a wall there to prevent it completely, and it might make me love it again.

Grand Valley > Deep Forest for me, due to the longer straights and higher speeds GV has to offer.
