Gran Turismo 6 Mission Races
The Mission Races test your ability to pass cars while also clearing the course within a given par time. These events will make you try to drive properly while making sure to avoid making crucial mistakes. Passing a car or cars is only part of clearing the Mission Races. You need to try to pass your opponent(s) while also making sure to clear the course in a given time. So treat these Mission Races like License Tests. You can not earn any Stars for completion of Mission Races, but you can earn money for clearing each Mission Race. Try to earn Gold in each Mission Race if you can.
Each Mission Race consists of five events. The first four events are all section-based events using a certain section of the given facility. The final Mission Race is a lap-based event around a certain track. Success in the Mission Races involve overtaking vehicles while also clearing the course in a fast time. It is not, however, required you pass all the vehicles in the given run. You just need to clear the event as quickly as you can. If you commit any of these fouls during the course of a Mission Race:
• you completely leave the course
• you collide hard into a barrier
• you hit an obstacle (such as a cone)
• you collide hard into a rival car
...your run will be disqualified, and you must try that Mission Race again. If you fail to complete the Mission Race within the par time, you will not receive any award. So make sure to complete the race in time and try to complete it with a quick time.

Gran Turismo 6 Mission Races: Super
^ This final set of Mission Races may be challenging, but you can do it! Hang in there!
This is the last set of Mission Races. Let's complete them all!
S-1: Prototype Racing Car Battle.
Car: 1991 Mazda 787BCourse: Circuit de la Sarthe 2013
Mission Type: Section
Some question whether prototype sportscars or Formula 1 style cars are the best racing cars ever conceived. You will be racing the Mazda 787B, which won the 1991 24 Hours of Le Mans, and at its time, the first Japanese manufacturer to win Le Mans outright. You will be racing the modern Circuit de la Sarthe ranging from the entrance of the Porsche Curves to the Start/Finish line in this Mission Race. Your four-rotor beast will be singing soprano style as you drive fiercely through this section. Just make sure to pass the other two cars you share the track with in addition to trying to clear this Mission Race. The Porsche Curves are tricky to navigate. Pick your spot carefully if you are trying to pass one of the two cars in this challenge. In fact, you may want to pass the first car during (or even after) the Porsche Curves rather than before entering the Porsche Curves. The rest of the way has a bunch of extra tricky kinks to unwind your car if you are not careful. Most importantly, try not to leave the course even with your monstrous Mazda.
TARGET TIMES:
• GOLD: 43.500
• SILVER: 45.000
• BRONZE: 49.000
S-2: Dream Car Battle.
Car: ???? Citroen GT by Citroen Race CarCourse: Special Stage Route 5
Mission Type: Section
Two-thirds of Special Stage Route 5 will be used in this Mission Race. You will be using the futuristic Citroen GT by Citroen on these city highways at night. Something to remember as you are weaving through the downtown buildings is that you are racing around a street course with fairly sufficient lighting and not too challenging corners. It will take a lot of patience on your behalf to try to properly navigate this city street course while also making sure not to whack the barriers on either side of the course or any of the two cars that share the track with you.
TARGET TIMES:
• GOLD: 50.500
• SILVER: 53.000
• BRONZE: 58.000
S-3: White Hot - Chamonix Showdown.
Car: ???? Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X Rally CarCourse: Chamonix - Main
Mission Type: Section
Let's get one thing straight- this is NOT the Chamonix you are used to from Gran Turismo 4. The location may have returned, but the track is the same one you recall from Gran Turismo 5. Your mount this time is the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X in rally racing trim. Instead of dirt or gravel for off-roading, you are racing on snow and ice. Snow and ice have much less traction than dirt or gravel. You thankfully have a car that can take on these surfaces properly. So make good use of this Mitsubishi as you navigate your way around this treacherous, snowy French course. Three other cars are on the track for this challenge. Be careful when closing in on the other drivers as they kick up snow. You can draw in too close to where you can initiate car contact and end up being disqualified. Try to stay within the snow banks as much as you can. Finally, be extra careful taking on the tough set of corners before reaching the Finish of this section.
TARGET TIMES:
• GOLD: 1:09.500
• SILVER: 1:11.000
• BRONZE: 1:15.000
S-4: Close Combat - Battle at Brands Hatch.
Car: 2004 Lotus Elise 111RCourse: Brands Hatch Grand Prix Circuit
Mission Type: Section
You are back at Branda Hatch for another Mission Race. This time, though, you are using the Grand Prix course. You will be racing almost all of the Indy course before transitioning to the Grand Prix course. That is the makeup of this section. Your car is the Lotus Elise 111R. While it is not the best offering from Lotus, it is a plenty capable automobile for you to race around this section of Brands Hatch. It can be easy to make a mistake around this track, so make sure you keep mistakes to a minimum handling around this course while trying to pass the three other cars.
TARGET TIMES:
• GOLD: 40.800
• SILVER: 42.000
• BRONZE: 45.000
S-5: Old Meets New - Ford GT Showdown!
Car: 1966 Ford GT40 Mark 1Course: Nürburgring Nordschleife
Mission Type: 1 Lap
This is the final Mission Race challenge. You must race one lap around the Nürburgring Nordschleife in a Ford GT. People often call the Nordschleife as "Green Hell." To most others, it is driving Heaven. I already reminded you how much I love the Nordschleife in my International A Mission Race blog post, so let me just say you will enjoy this challenge if you love this track. This is a very long track with many corners and narrow roads. Matters won't be helped much considering you are racing a vintage sports car. It doesn't have the modern technologies and driving dynamics that your opponent Ford GT has, but you still have a capable racing machine that can lap this course fairly well. My biggest piece of advice to you- learn the track and learn the car. Don't focus on Gold until you have mastered both. To get Gold, you are going to have to be near perfect around a course that is almost 13 miles long with many corners getting in your way. Take your time. In addition to racing a brutally difficult race course, time is passing rapidly as evening becomes night. The race actually start at 15:00 (3:00 PM 12-hour time). You have SOME leeway in this race because you can actually go off-course and not be disqualified. Other than that, colliding with any barrier or the other car will disqualify you. Take advantage of this liberty especially if you are terrible at the Nordschlife like I am. Long story short... don't try to be a hero/heroine here. Just get to the finish line by any means necessary without getting disqualified. GOOD LUCK clearing this one- you're going to need it (and then some).
TARGET TIMES:
• GOLD: 7:50.000
• SILVER: 8:00.000
• BRONZE: 9:00.000
If you cleared all of the Mission Races, congratulations! Your quest (at least among the Mission Races) is over. You can always go back to any of the Mission Races to improve your times.
This post concludes the set of Mission Races in Gran Turismo 6. I wish you well in completing all of these challenges. Thank you for reading! Take care and be well.
