Well we haven't seen too many Native Americans in.. Oh you mean those types of races.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I guess I wouldn't mind having that hispanic guy as the protagonist.

But yeah, I just hope the GTA Races return. I loved them in GTA IV.

[Versous]

Yeah, there should be options for races. WIth/without weapons, same classes/different classes and so on.A lot of variety please! After teasing " a bold new direction" for multiplayer, I expect a fantastic MP anyway!

I hoped they worked on the netcode as well. there was a lot of lag in IV!

Yeah, I'd like that too. It's just like the Blood Bowl races in SA, but instead of being limited to a stadium, it could be out in the city.

I'd also like the triathlon races from TBOGT, and normal street races according to vehicle class (like multiplayer races)

I made a long post a while back about this with my speculations and desires it was a pretty good idea IMO and some others had a few good ideas too... check it out

In IV I got tired of street races. Now I want race tracks!

Thats a great idea!

I would like to see pogo stick races:

I like the basic idea of the opening post except for the gear changing mini gamish thingy. That sounds like a retard mini game.

Personally, I thing racing should just be slightly modified. Firstly, R* seriously needs to change car physiques in terms of realism. I played IV today and noticed once again how the gas drops down while drifting making some moves impossible that would be sweet and are performed in real life. The gas pedal also reacts not precise enough for my taste...but that's another story.

Races will at least partly take place in the city areas and I would like to see more difficulty there...like it's very easy for me to finish any race as No 1 with a car that is trash afterwards it would be a nice little twist if you would get points or more money when you finish a race with less damage. This could then affect your 100% status which would require a perfect game statistic not only including number one finishing but also 0% damage.

This woul kick the game into a corner that actually feels like you are racing with crazy idiots with fast cars in the city being careful your car doesn't get f*ed up.

There could be some great races with Cars, Planes, on foot, bike, smimming....Something like the San Andreas Cluckin Bell Race but with more vehicles.

I would like to see ~75 races that need to be completed for the 100%. Mostly car races, but also trucks, vans, bikes, bmx, mountain bike, quad, boat, jetski, plane, chopper and triathlons. Lots of variety.

75 Races are you out of your mind? i think 30 Street races and 70 Drift races should be enough But only in one condition if we have a sports car customizable and handling Like true Race cars but only cars and aircrafts not trucks ven boat bullsh*t and i think you should add an option sprint(running) race

[Miamivicecity]

I wouldn't mind if we had some races on a proper race track for once. What are some famous race tracks in SoCal? I know of Laguna Seca and Infineon Raceway, but I'm not sure if they're in the locale that GTA V will be.

Anyway even if they just make up their own it would be cool. Even a speedway would be cool. I was disappointed the speedway in LA Noire was inaccessible.

[GtaOutKast]

The races in GTA IV were alright in my opinion. I really liked the TBOGT ones, sky, sea, land. It was very creative. In GTA V I'd like if you could go onto the internet and sign up for particulars races like boats, cars, bikes maybe even planes too?

For online, well. How about you make your own route? Say for example, Los Santos to Mount Chillad and back with 30 checkpoints or something? To me that sounds pretty cool. Also if the race has land to sea. Say when you reach the sea part there's boats already in line for you to go?

That's what I think should happen, IMO...

I disagree with players wanting to modify or upgrade cars, especially for multi player races. In my opinion multi player is best when the playing field is as even as possible and all kinds of upgrades, modifications or in game purchases work against this.
Drag races sound a bit boring I think, challenging tracks with tight corners and drops are more fun.
In addition to the race modes in IV (Race, GTA Race) I would really like to see:

-Multiplayer version of the thriatlon from TBGOT.
-Off road races taking advantage of those huge mountains.
-Downhill skiing with guns and grenades
-Snowmobile races
-Fighter jet races (or any other plane for that matter)

They should also implement the gameplay from Enviro bear 2000

Well there's an easy way around that. Force restrictions so random Joe doesn't have a fully modified Turismo running against a heap of stock pieces of crap.

Make it a bit more Forza/Gran Turismo-ish.

Would be awesome if they had a race track or garage with a F1 or at least Indy/Formula Ford type racing car in it that's very fast.

This really should go into the wishlist topic.

Your Wishlist for GTA V!

In my opinion moving towards Gran Turismo style of play would be a bad move. It would make players spend even more time in the lobby rather than racing. The GT5 multiplayer is almost completely useless, its just waiting. More options will make it harder to find a game and start racing.

As someone who plays Gran Turismo 5 religiously, you'd think I would like te OP idea...

I don't; this is Grand Theft Auto, drag racing online wouldn't be a good idea because R* could invest their time in better features, i.e. new online modes ("capture the bag" maybe?), clothing stores etc.

I would like to see the good old form of GTA car racing in single player; get a car, roll up to the start line, and then drive. Drag racing with manual gears belongs within a racing game/ simulator, sorry but I don't like the idea.

As previously mentioned, car physics needs some improvement as well, standard road tyres do not offer enough grip to prevent drifting as horribly as they did in IV. IRL D1GP competitors use standard road tyres and lose no speed compared to the speed you would lose in IV.

Oh f*ck that would be fun! F1 races in the middle of the city with traffic. This would be insane!

[Beez]

I'd like to see airplane and helicopter races. Boat races too, those were hella fun in Vice City.

Circuit and drag racing would be nice too. There are a lot of oval tracks and road courses surrounding the Los Angeles area so that would fit.

Id's like to see some rally and Baja type races in the hills and desert too.

Doesn't Long Beach have a beach-front indy-car circuit? I'd love it if they recreated that and gave the protag some excuse to go indy racing Also a nascar-style oval would be great.
