    Dunno if anyone else thinks this as well, but I think that they should add British Touring Cars into the game along with the Brands Hatch GP circuit. Just a thought..

    Pretty sure Codemasters have the long term licence for BTCC, may be wrong but sure i read somewhere they had it tied up forever, but yes just the car models and decent skins would be nice.

    Brands GP..............

    The only way you'll get Brands Hatch GP is if either the DTM, WTCC or ADAC GT Masters put it on their calendar in the coming years. Highly unlikely.

    Can't for the life of me understand why the Indy circuit is used instead of the full circuit in any major series, indy is very mickey mouse compared to gp, must be based on lack of spectator areas, surely given the choice drivers would prefer the gp layout from a driving standpoint, i very rarely race Indy version in any game as I think it just boring, only turn 1 does anything for me.

    I think it's noise issues - there are houses near the far end of the track and it's only allowed a small number of full-GP track days each year

    Yep.

    And I'm pretty sure the track was there before the houses!

    yup and if you live withing a certain distance you get free season pass, and also, you cant get cars like the zonda R up to speed on the straight, you need something longer

    I really like BH Indy, driving on the limit with DTM/WTCC/ TC Classics there, I had some very thrilling races but the GP Layout would definitely be great ;).
    Though coming from the good ol' Toca Touring Car Championship back in the days it's also connected with a lotta nostalgic emotions...

    Yea, not saying the gp is all bad, but the guys at s3 would certainly get a bit more cash if they released the gp. And i wouldnt mind paying more to get the gp even though i have the indy already

    I could see Brands GP happening. I would like to see the whole Brands Hatch redone by S3. Its not quite right (as made very obvious by Project cars and Assetto Corsas versions) but the GP would be great. As for BTCC, would be great but the grids are abit too much of a mish mash of cars for S3 to work on. You would probably get the top couple teams (trusting licenses are okay) but most of the field are independants in different brands (Unlike WTCC which has independants in the current factory cars)
