24 New Track Logos Discovered on Gran Turismo 5 Website

Gran Turismo 5 April 11th, 2011 by Jordan

While poking around the Remote Racing section of the official GT5 “My Home” website, GTPlanet user Yonis made an interesting discovery: the site has been loaded with 24 logos for tracks which aren’t currently playable in the game. Here’s how he did it (hint: the images are publicly available on Polyphony Digital’s web servers if you can decipher their file names), and here’s what he found:

1. Driving Park (20r60r)
2. Apricot Hill
3. Citta di Aria
4. Costa di Amalfi
5. Grand Canyon
6. Hong Kong
7. Ice Arena
8. Infineon Raceway
9. Driving Park (Kashiwa)
10. Las Vegas
11. Midfield Raceway
12. Twin Ring Motegi
13. New York
14. George V Paris
15. Opera Paris (Tarmac)
16. Seattle Circuit
17. Seoul Circuit
18. Swiss Alps South
19. Tahiti Maze
20. Valencia Circuit
21. El Capitan
22. Cathedral Rocks (Dirt)
23. Cathedral Rocks (Dirt Mini)
24. Cathedral Rocks (Dirt Short)

Yonis pointed out these images are accessible under a GT5-specific image directory on the gran-turismo.com website (…/gt5/remote_race/common/courselogo/) and sized appropriately for the GT5 remote racing site. It should also be noted the tracks above have never been seen together in any GT game – Valencia was not in GT4, while Hong Kong, Las Vegas, and George V Paris were absent from GT PSP.

It is impossible to know exactly what these images are doing on the GT5 web site, though it’s tempting to speculate… El Capitan has already been seen in Gran Turismo 5via the accidentally-leaked Red Bull “Horse Power” trailer, so we know at least a few of these updated circuits must be floating around Polyphony Digital’s offices.

Whether or not they’ll be coming in future updates to GT5 – or if they’ll be saved for Gran Turismo 6 – remains to be seen. Regardless, kudos to Yonis for this discovery, and thanks to Dylans1o for the tip!
