surely the best track for testing top speed is the one for le mans 24 hour - without the chicanes? that back straight is soooo long.

technically all tracks on the Game are replicas but it is the Le Man Track I think the french actually call it De La Sarthe,

It even has the Rolex clock at the start line

Bad luck mate

Keep trying.
I managed 301 with qualifying tyres.
And then smashed my record with a 307 in my GT1 Toyota TS020

keep playing with gear ratios, you should manage it.
Good luck

There are some geniune tracks (i.e. not replica's such as Fuji and Nurburgring) whilst there are some fictional ones to such as test course and grand valley speedway

The test course is better than DLS for top end runs as you can keep in nailed on the bends.
