I loved the AMG special event on GT5. Likewise, it taught me how to get around Nordschliefe (sp?) properly. Finally golding the full wet lap in the SLS AMG with no aids was one of the most rewarding parts of that game for me.
The one i'm referring to though, is the short Grand Prix track, which was not part of the AMG Driving School.
Ascari. It may be my lack of course knowledge, or just a course designed to screw with those who haven't memorized the brake and turn in points, but I've never had so much trouble pulling together a damn lap before.
Also, the Matterhorn tracks, for the same reason. Let me tell you how much I enjoy off-camber, blind, uphill cresting corners. It feels like they threw together as many random angles as possible and called it a course. It's challenging for the sake of being challenging.
Reminds me of those horrible custom courses in GT5 events (Mt. Aso).
Im loving big willow, shes a challenge but so good when you grab the apex and shoot down the straight, Tokyo on the other hand....so dam annoying bland and useless with an underpowered car
The dopey oval (Hold your trigger finger partner!) The Route XX.
Time does heal - I used to hate Apricot Hill... now - it is quite good fun.
That said I always get a slump when I see the Nurburgring logo... then realise I am going to race on the modern DTM layout...
"But a proper track is just there! I can see it! Why can't we race on the Big Boy track, not this Mickey Mouse track?"
I don't like Grand Valley Speedway (Full). All the long and tight corners make you have this sickening struggle feel in the stomach in every corner, disrupting the flow. Not even softer tires help. I would drift through it if there weren't many racing type car events going to that venue. Doesn't help that the fictional raceway is run-down now. I'd stick to the East variant.
There is something about Tokyo that I really dislike. Long boring straight, and walls everywhere that embarrass GT's lack of real impact damage and physics.
Doesn't seem to really flow either, and not enough elevation changes for a street track.
Disagree with previous posts disliking Autumn Ring. For me, it's always been one of the best. Nice elevation changes, good flow, nice technical right/left/right/left, where each corner exit heavily effects the next.
I absolutly hate the cote d azur. I like pretty much everything else. Suzuka in particular. Used to hate the nurb gp track, but the seasonal has taught me how to drive it properly.
Any of the Nurbungen-CourseIstTooLangen tracks. It's way too long for me, and with so few cars it gets pretty lonely...especially at night. There are a few memorable corners, but that's just going to happen with 100+ of them. Most of it is pretty bland.
I guess the gp track there is okay, but with its huge overrun areas, the scenery is even more boring than the treestreestrees bits.
UPDATE: just did Kart Space for the Karting races, I absolutely hate it, who in the world thought it would be a good idea to do a standing start and group a bunch of karts and 2 seconds later make the smallest corner in the world. Its like doing a 16 man standing start in the Nurburgring.
Cape Ring (in all of it's forms), Ascari and Grand Valley Speedway are probably my three most dreaded circuits.
Cape ring is a fantasy island of dull repetitive driving, so utterly big and uniform that you know the whole time that it couldn't possibly be a real circuit, Ascari is just a load of horrible low speed corners and half-straights, and I find myself at full lock or standing on the brakes way too often to enjoy it/find any rhythm, also considering the fact it's Spain the weather could be a bit better, and Grand Valley Speedway is just the most dull/grey place in the world.
I don't remember exactly the name, but I loathe the "Ascari" track(which is located in Spain) the most for having a lot of continuous sharp bends and even after some practice I still have difficulty making laps without swerving off from the track.
Out of the original circuits I used to like only Trial Mountain back in GT1 (still my favorite track) and by GT3 I was a fan of GV and Mid-Field, but Apricot Hill was always my least favorite. I love it now though, and I think the only one I still don't care for is Autumn Ring (full). I just can't like that track...I drive fine on it but I just don't enjoy it.
So far in my GT6 journey (I haven't been able to play much because of college) I'm finding it very easy to hate Goodwood...as for actual circuits I'm really not a fan of Brands Hatch and honestly I really don't enjoy driving Silverstone either.
I'm a bit of a newbie and haven't had to experience "Ascari" yet, but you've all inspired me, so I just gave it a crack. Not sure I understand the problem. I even quite liked it.
