I'd love to see either of those tracks, although I wouldn't have thought the full TT circuit would be likely to make it into a sequel as it'd just be so much work. More than the Nurburgring, definitely.

Tbh the more 'real' tracks they put in the better. Would be nice to have all the MotoGP circuits as well as some of the UK ones.

yeah the IOM TT circuit would be good - having played TT Superbike Challenge to death tho I can tell you the circuit is pretty easy. Yeah it's scary as hell riding it for real on a real bike but that cos of the dry stone walls, hedge-rows etc etc coming at you at over 180mph (or 100mph in my case) but take that away and it's not that bad.

i would like to see Monza, Turkey etc but I can't see them ever getting the licence to start putting in Moto GP bikes - more is the pity.

Good point, since Dorna are probably already making a pretty penny by licensing the MotoGP name et al out for the official games they're not too likely to be lending anyone else a helping hand. That said, a Tourist Trophy sequel with a full MotoGP license would sell very, very nicely. A bit of hard cash is always persuasive. ;)

I would like to see LeMans and an updated Laguna Seca with Moto GP banners instead or car stuff everywhere.

good point. i noticed that there were mazda banners all over the place...granted it is mazda's raceway. but there should be honda and yamaha and ducati signs.

I would love to see all of the Moto GP tracks.

Jerez
Losail Circuit
Instanbul Park Circuit
Shanghai Circuit
Le Mans
Mugello
Circuit de Catalunya
Assen
Donnington Park
Sachsenring
Laguna Seca
Automotodrom Brno
Sepang Circuit
Phillip Isaland
Motegi
Estoril
Comunitat Valenciana

I know about 3 of those are already there, LOL. I think it would be cool if Polyphony put 1 bike from each team, lets us pick the numbers available for that team and actually make the races 40 laps. Like on GT4 where they had endurance race catagories. Then we could all race like we were really GP racers. If TT2 comes out on the PS3 which it would most likely then we could all race online and the server admin could add all the tracks listed above and then we could really have at it.

when refering to the french motogp round, you should use buggati instead of le mans. le sarthe is the insteresting car track while bugatis is the stop'n'go bike track.

Is the Bugati circuit the whole track? or just a part? =o)

buggati uses the start/finish start and first chicane of le sarthe, but, other than that its inside le sarthe. it basically circles around right behind the pits iirc.

ive not enjoyed it in any games its been in.

Any of

Brands Hatch
Monza
Daytona
Spa
Isle of Man
Macau
Salzburgring
Assen (the old street circuit would be awesome as well, though prob not possible)

.. and what's this about a corner at Bathurst worse than the Corkscrew?

I would like to see more real tracks like Assen, Donnington, Mugello ect. One track I'd like to race on that no motorcycle series goes to, that I know of, is Spa. Going through El Rouge would be the shizznet.

There might be, I just haven't seen any on TV here in the states.

considering theres no meantion of the suzuka 8 hour and the 24 hours of lemans (plently of car coverage of the car 24 hours though) that doesnt surprise me.

Usul

Yeah, I have to read about the Suzuka 8hr in bike magazines to find out what's going on

we're pretty lucky in the uk then. with sky/caable you can get;

moto gp
world supers
british supers
isle of man tt
suzuka 8hr
le man 24r
maccau
ama

coverage is a bit hit & miss on some channels but i can't complain.

do our american friends get to see the isle of man tt ? - it really does take you're breath away. i'm lucky enough to live fairly close so i can be on a ferry over to the isle in a couple of hours. :)

Yeah, I can watch it on Speed channel (when they're not showing f**king nascar)

iirc, we only get/got a 1 hour highlights show with very little actually on track footage but a lot of rider interviews.

the tt circuit is fairly easy to be honest - if you took away the trees and lamp posts and the dry stone walls it would be boring. (just a load of 'almost straights' connected by a few hairpins), but............ leave it as it is and set superbikes along it at 180mph + and it's anything but !

i've seen footage of the late joey dunlop going around there and theres some strange noises that can be heard on the on-board footage - when asked if the the noises came from his knee sliders joey replied "nah - it's my helmet hittin' the dry stone wall'

100% nuts - the man was a legend.

you can buy some pretty good dvd's from a company called 'Duke' if you really want to see some racing between hedgerows.

i live in the US, and i just watch everything on the computer. the cable companies here suck donkey balls, and its $45. for basic. there is nothing but nascar on for 90% of the time...no exaggeration. lol, and then after the race, they have a highlight show with ... nascar, the same damn race that was just on. :roll: sorry, im off my soapbox now. :neutral:

we've got a similar problem with our domestic league [bsb] in the uk. the coverage was taken off sky by a terestrial channel [itv] and the coverage is rubbish - highlight of the first race and the second race is usually live unless there's something else on ie

football
rugby
cricket
tennis
golf
athletics
indoor bowls
archery
swimming
darts

or anyother rubbish minority sport.

i'm personaly going to give the extra $$ to sky to get the tv rights for next year even if i've got to sell my nan

More US tracks would be nice: Mid-Ohio, Road America, Barber, Miller, VIR. I could do without Daytana & the other Rovals, although the F1 track at Indy might be interesting.

Here's an idea what Mid-Ohio would be like, although the pavement is brand new since this was done.
