Gran Turismo vs Forza Motorsport - Complicated Test Tracks (Complex String vs King Cobra)

Gran Turismo and Forza Motorsport are the two biggest track racing game franchises and both of them have featured a very complicated fictional test track at one point during their history. Here you can see a lap on each track with the Nissan Calsonic Skyline R34 GT-R from the JGTC series.

Complex String is a fictional test track in Gran Turismo 3 that can be accessed from the garage and is also used for a few license tests. It features many different types of corners and even a section with strong elevation and drops, although some sections are also awkward to drive.

Test Track Infield first appeared in Forza Motorsport 1 and then returned in FM2 and FM3. In FM2 it has many different layouts, which are named after snakes, with the most complex layout being called King Cobra. In FM3 the location is called Sidewinder Proving Grounds. Compared to Complex String this track feels a bit less artificial but it still has all kinds of corners as well.

Which of these extreme test tracks have you played yourself and would you like to see them return in some of the modern track racing games? Feel free to share your thoughts and memories about these tracks in the comments.
