Races of Gran Turismo 2

John B. Marine | 6:08 PM | | |
The Simulation Disc of Gran Turismo 2 showcases a host of races for you to take part in. For some of the early races in GT2, a license is not required. However, to complete the game, you need to make sure you have all of your licenses ready in taking on the rigors GT2 has to offer for you on the Simulation Disc. So make sure to get more licenses. If you need a little advice on clearing license tests, visit my blog post featuring GT2's license tests.

(NOTE: This blog post only concerns the official races, not the One-Make races.)





--- Races of Gran Turismo 2 at a Glance ---
Gran Turismo 2 GTF
^ Gran Turismo 2's Gran Turismo Foundation features four great classes to challenge your racing abilities.

The Gran Turismo League, Special Events, Rally Events, and Endurance races all feature many ways to go racing in GT2. The majority of your racing is in this lineup of events. You will need to remember to keep your horsepower within regulation of the required horsepower limits to enter.


Gran Turismo League.

The GT League features three tiers of racing. It begins with six different Nationals you must clear. These are basic races featuring mostly cars from certain nationalities. The next tier is the Euro-Pacific League. Here, you battle against cars from European makes in the Euro League, and against Japanese and American cars in the Pacific League. The chosen few compete in the greatest of all races- the Gran Turismo World League. It is a five-race series featuring some of the finest race cars in Gran Turismo 2. This is where you will get your kicks racing on a proper stage of racing.

Special Events.

Special Events are limited to certain types of vehicles. In it, you will face a great variety of cars and tracks to push your racing skills further. This is where you will do a vast majority of your racing in GT2. Many races have horsepower restrictions, but some others have restrictions on drivetrain and aspiration. Therefore, it is not required for you to have a certain kind of car to meet most regulations. So for example, you could race the Station Wagon Cup in a 1997 Acura NSX (as long as it is within the horsepower regulations). You can race a car from the 1970s or the 1990s in the '80s Sports Car Cup. There are no legit limitations for any series unless a series specifically calls for a certain restriction.

Rally Events.

All Rally Events require you to complete a one-lap time trial against a ghost. If you beat the ghost's time, you win the event. Each of the nine events feature three races against a certain opponent car. An A-License is the bare minimum to compete in these races.

Endurances.

While GT1 had three endurances, Gran Turismo 2 challenges you to seven endurance races. The same ability to endure will be tested substantially in this series of endurance races. Take note of the various horsepower restrictions for those who have horsepower restrictions. At the least, an International B license is required.


These are the four classes of racing in Gran Turismo 2. It is now time to delve further into these races.

Official racing events of Gran Turismo 2.

Nationals.

On your way to reaching the pinnacle of Gran Turismo racing, you must start out in the Nationals. A dark hint... you do not need to have a car of a certain nationality for each National. So in other words, you can bring a Japanese car to the U.S. Nationals and still win. Each race is two laps long. No cars are rewarded for winning each race. In brackets are the license requirements. In braces {} are the money prizes for each position from 1st to 6th.

--- Races of Gran Turismo 2: Special Events ---
Most of your racing is done in the Special Events section. These are races divided up among kinds of automobiles. There are a minimum of three races and a maximum of five. To win in these races, you must demonstrate your ability to win in any of the given races featured here.

Sunday Cup.

To begin your racing journey through Gran Turismo 2, start off in the Sunday Cup. The races last for only two laps. No license is required.
* Tahiti Road - {3000, 1000, 500, 400, 300, 200}
* High Speed Ring - {4000, 1500, 1000, 700, 400, 200}
* Red Rock Valley - {5000, 2000, 1500, 1000, 500, 300}

Clubman Cup.

The next series of races feature some tougher races with some higher payouts on the line. Take on some tougher competition on three European city courses. Each race is two laps long.
* Rome Short - {5000, 2000, 1500, 1000, 500, 300}
* Grindelwald - {6000, 3000, 2000, 1000, 500, 300}
* [B] Rome Circuit - {7000, 5000, 2000, 1000, 700, 500}

FF Challenge.

Test your ability to race and use front-wheel drive cars. These cars offer great traction, but do not allow you to get very aggressive racing them. You will therefore have to learn the limits that front-wheel drive (or as haters call them, wrong-wheel drive) cars provide. The races last only two lap races. Only front-wheel drive cars can race in this event.
* [B] Tahiti Road - 295hp limit - {5000, 2000, 1500, 1000, 500, 300}
* [A] Midfield Raceway - 345hp limit - {6000, 3000, 2000, 1000, 500, 300}
* [IC] Trial Mountain - 394hp limit - {7000, 5000, 2000, 1000, 700, 500}

FR Challenge.

Perhaps the best drivetrain for racing is a front-engine car with rear-wheel drive. The advantage of this drivetrain is that you get great weight balance and great control. The front gives you pull in a FR car while the rear gives you that push. However, rear-wheel drive cars can snap on you if you spin out. The races last only two laps. Only front-engine/RWD cars can enter.
* [A] Clubman Stage Route 5 - 295hp limit - {5000, 2000, 1500, 1000, 500, 300}
* [IC] Special Stage Route 5 - 443hp limit - {6000, 3000, 2000, 1000, 500, 300}
* [IB] Midfield Raceway - 493hp limit - {7000, 5000, 2000, 1000, 700, 500}

Mid-Engine Challenge.

Mid-engined cars take great precision to handle. They can be absolutely fragile and disasterous if handled poorly. Make sure to pick out a good car to go race with. Think of tuning up your Toyota MR2 or your Acura NSX before competing here. The races last only two laps. Only mid-engined cars with RWD can compete.
* [IC] Grand Valley East - 345hp limit - {5000, 2000, 1500, 1000, 500, 300}
* [IB] High Speed Ring - 493hp limit - {6000, 3000, 2000, 1000, 500, 300}
* [IA] Red Rock Valley - 591hp limit - {15000, 5000, 2000, 1000, 500, 300}

4WD Challenge.

While not considered great drivetrains for road racing, 4WD cars offer both the traction of front-wheel drive with the accleration and push of RWD cars. Take advantage of this best-of-both-worlds drivetrain in three different races to test your 4WD racing ability. You will be racing three American courses here in two-lap races. Only four-wheel drive cars can race in this series.
* [A] Seattle Short - 345hp limit - {5000, 2000, 1500, 1000, 500, 300}
* [IC] Seattle Circuit - 394hp limit - {6000, 3000, 2000, 1000, 500, 300}
* [IA] Laguna Seca - 690hp limit - {15000, 5000, 2000, 1000, 700, 500}

* Rome Short - 147hp limit - {5000, 2000, 1500, 1000, 500, 300}
* [B] Seattle Short - 98hp limit - {6000, 3000, 2000, 1000, 500, 300}
* [A] Tahiti Road - 98hp limit - {7000, 5000, 2000, 1000, 700, 500}

Compact Car World Cup.

Racing some of the best compact cars in the world, you will be racing three different courses in two-lap races. Make the most of the handling and performance capabilities of compact cars with this three-race series.
* [B] Rome Short - 246hp limit - {4000, 1500, 1000, 700, 400, 200}

* [B] Autumn Ring - 246hp limit - {4000, 1500, 1000, 700, 400, 200}

Luxury Sedan Cup.

The Luxury Sedan Cup features premium luxury cars in a three-race series. You will need to understand that while these cars may be powerful, they are very heavy, and therefore require some great finesse to properly race. Make good use of these cars' horsepower and their handling abilities to win.
* [A] Rome Circuit - 394hp limit - {5000, 2000, 1500, 1000, 500, 300}

--- Endurance Events ---
The ability to endure will be tested in this series of races. Gran Turismo 2 features seven endurance races on some of the game's toughest circuits. You need to set aside about 90 minutes or two hours to complete all of these races. You will need to pit for new tires in addition to trying to outlast the competition. Therefore, you may want to reconsider racing on Super Soft tires. Instead, go for a tire setup that will help you to last for the duration of the race. Make sure you have the right tire combination prior to starting each endurance because if you pick the wrong tire setup, you will have to live with that tire combination through the entirety of the race. Learn what setup is best for your car in a long-distance race by practicing and testing certain setups. An International B license is the minimum for these events. Bonus cars are awarded for victory in each of the seven endurances. Lots of money is on the line for victory in each race.

A brief description for each event will be provided. Horsepower restrictions (if any) will be provided in the description.

Experience 200 miles around Laguna Seca (now known as Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca). Your opposition will mostly be JGTC GT500 class cars. This race lasts for 90 laps.
