Donington GTLegends - National or GP circuit?

[_dobbo_]

Ok chaps, we don't have a definitive answer on the Donington National vs Donington GP debate. Vote here please.

GP, all the others are the bigger layouts

[D_Mike]

The GP loop doesn't make it more fun though. Though I do sort of feel we ought to race on the GPl circuit and not cop out.

So you are firmly on the fence then Mike?

[mr_yogi]

I prefer the national, like Mike said the GP isn't any more fun. Also if the track is shorter it might make for a more interesting race as there will be more passing of back-markers etc.

So I vote for the national circuit

[neil_cardiff]

I'm in for National, as Mr Yogi said, lots of overtaking, plenty of oppotunity for certain people to be slowed up

[lockstock2sb]

sounds like a witch-hunt is brewing for mr.parker !!

[AJLintern]

I find the National more fun, but you have to be a lot more careful with the tyres on the GP circuit, so that might make things more interesting
I say GP circuit as we can always use the National for fun races

[pentoman]

Agreed the extra loop is horrible and pointless!

[UncleDave]

Only just seen this thread, just posted on the Sticky. Doh!

National is my choice!

[UK952]

Prefer driving the national as well but has anyone raced there with 17+ cars in different classes over a half hour race? the extra loop would spread us out a bit more.

It's the GP for me.

[rebelstar]

GP please.

[AJLintern]

Maybe Neil could do a poll on the server website? Though it's looking about 50:50 at the moment

[FourWheelDrift]

Well I've just done about 20 laps practice on the GP circuit (tried 2 different cars) might be scope for a 76 car change based on the laps I'm doing.

[neil_cardiff]

Can't be doing with a poll creation tonight but I have changed the server to Donny GP AND National so you can practise both.

We need to make a decision by Wednesday though - I'll change the server onc we've decided.

National from me (shorter one)

I'm going to vote GP, because I can't get the chicane right at the national circuit...

[FourWheelDrift]

Too easy to short cut the chicane in past games and get faster times, if you do it on GTL I think you might get warning, 3 in the race and it'll be a DQ. With the overtaking expected and a few mistakes it would be very easy to get a cutting warning by mistake if avoiding an incident or just messing up on the brakes. If the chicane isn't covered by a cutting warning then there could be an unfair advantage to anyone who repeatadly cuts it to gaine time.

Plus the GP circuit gives everyone 2 extra overtaking opportunities.

[UK952]

I think you get a stop/go for cutting, you only get the DQ for ignoring the stop go (10 second stationary (after you press enter) don't forget the limiter or you'll get another)
