This short, 1’42 video shows the first action seen at Gran Turismo 5′s new “Route X” track, http://www.gtplanet.net/gran-turismo-5s-car-pack-3-route-x-dlc-full-details/" rel="nofollow - - Ehra-Lessien (which has a 9km straight that is impossible to see either end from the middle, due to the curvature of the Earth), little information exists about the remaining 18km of circuit, with GT5 fans remarking on architectural similarities to the infamous http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayshore_Route" rel="nofollow -

i think it's all the same track. 12km straight-a-way, then 18km for the harbour plus getting there and back.

it's one big oval with nice banked turns. it has a really smooth surface with distance markings every 1000m.

well without doing any sort of tinkering what so ever i hit 305.4 mph with the prototype, gonna mess with the tranny some later, prolly the ride height and downforce too and see what i can come up with.

Bain if we could both get on that track and draft im sure we could hit 350 mph lol, just stretch the final gear out and bump draft ;)

i took off all downforce. didn't mess with the ride height. i set the final gear to 350mph and got to 317mph. i lowered it to 340mph and got it to 322mph. but that was on the downhill side off the bridge, not the speed test section.
