There is no excitement on this track except the very fast chicane underneath the trees before the double right. I like Midfield Raceway more! Red Rock Valley Speedway (from GT2) was also nice, for example.

I've only ever raced R246 on GT4, maybe it isn't as enjoyable with the different physics engine on GT5, but to me all the corners except the final hairpin are exciting, medium to high-speed corners. I'm very surprised that you would rate Midfield raceway above it - aside from the flat-out chicane and long left-hander, there isn't much to get excited about, and both of these corner types are present in R246.
Maybe it's because I prefer the more difficult medium-high speed corners more than the flat-out corners. My favourite parts of the R246 track are the 2 right handers following the faux-rouge flat-out chicane, and the first chicane (turns 2 and 3). I will concede that most of the medium-high speed corners are very similar so I can see why it would get boring, but I find that helps get into a quick rhythm.
If I didn't have to study for exams, I would be tearing that track up right now!
I also hope they include a proper qualifying system in GT6.
