There has to be one in it. I'd be surprised if one wasn't featured

I've wanted GTA to do a rocket car or dragster ever since I saw the rocket car in Simpsons Hit and Run.

A drag strip has not been confirmed, and there isn't much evidence supporting it yet.

 

There is a race track, though. Most people assume it's a horse track, but we don't know for certain.

 

See for yourself. I'm hoping it's for cars.

I know in SA, I loved to go to the giant freeway that surrounded Las Venturas, and then get in a fast car and pretend I'm racing.

I think i saw a race track in one of the trailers. I'll go back and find it. It didnt look like a drag strip though, it looked like a circuit. I'll post a pic if I find it.

if you look at the blue print map you can see a racetrack in the upper right corner, or maybe it's a Derby track?

So let me ask you... If you race two of the playable characters... if you start losing... Can you switch to the winning one and win? Haha

With the huge map hopefully some sort of race track is in. Or at least a drag strip in the middle of the desert somewhere.

Dont make sense without manual gears.

That's kinda retarded bro. Most cars that drag race with a lot of horsepower don't have manual transmissions. It's hard to build a manual that can take high horsepower without breaking.

 

Besides, even on the lower horsepower end it still makes sense since we can customize/tune the cars now. Hell, people used to drag race online all the time on part IV at the airport and you knew instantly if you were gonna win or lose based on which car you each had since you couldn't tune them.

 

And considering there are crap loads of videos of people doing just that on youtube, I bet they either do have a track, or at the least made sure there is another long and straight road for us drag racers. biggrin.gif

This one has some other good points on drag racing

http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=568983&hl=

 

I for one do not find it that appealing, I mean all it would really require is timing a button press (unless we have manual transmissions), driving in a straight line do not really entice me. If it is implemented I would mostly use it as a tool, to see how fast my customized car is , thats it.

Not true, maybe if you are racing those little cracker jack toy rice burners with throw away transmissions. i have lived a mile from a drag strip all my life and have seen many cars come and go, and most American Muscle cars are running manuals and many of the serious import guys are as well, having control of your gears makes for better times, thats a fact. Serious drag racers run manual transmissions.

I doubt in an actual race in single player, but you never know!

That's what freeways are for tounge.gif

There are cars on Freeway,but on dragstrip there aren`t.

 

I would love this. Take a car, tune it and see how fast you can drive that 1/4 mile biggrin.gif

I would probably spend a lot of time there tounge.gif

A drag strip for online would be sweet, do up you're car, take it online and challenge others to a 1/2 mile drag race, winner takes all. icon14.gif

actually very few run manuals most gms for example run a th350 or th400 unless they have stepped up to overdrive. then a highley built 200-4r or 700r4 the first being better usually is used. mopar 727 tq flight. ford c6 etc.... very few people like a muncie to drag race due to lack of a trans brake deep stall and usually the auto shifts faster and when built right is probablly stronger. none of your top nhra cars run a stick that i know of and lets not forget even back in the day the powerglide ruled the strip.
