===Tracks=== The game features 51 tracks, which are divided into 4 groups, World Circuits, Original Circuits, City Courses, and Dirt & Snow. Many of which are new or modified versions of old Gran Turismo favourites, however the inclusion of the Nurburgring is a centre-piece of the game. Notable real-world track inclusions are the [[Nürburgring]] Nordschleife, [[Suzuka Circuit]], [[Twin Ring Motegi]] (with three Road Course configurations, as well as the Super Speedway) and [[Circuit de la Sarthe]] (Le Mans). There are also tracks modeled after world famous attractions such as New York City's [[Times Square]], [[Hong Kong]], [[Hôtel George-V]] Paris, and the [[Las Vegas Strip]]. The Hong Kong course is located in the [[Tsim Sha Tsui]] district, which, in its clockwise configuration, starts at [[Salisbury Road, Hong Kong|Salisbury Road]], passes through the city's waterfront and then [[Nathan Road]]. The Città d'Aria course follows actual roads in [[Assisi]], Italy. The race starts/finishes in the piazza in front of the temple Minerva. Just before the start/finish line on this course, written on the tarmac is an inscription in broken Italian: "Dio lo benedice — fate il suo guidare il più sicuro e divertirsi", which, when translated, means "God blesses him; make his driving the most safely and to have fun." On the Seattle circuit, the [[Kingdome]], the previous home of the [[Seattle Mariners]], is visible next to their current stadium, [[Safeco Field]]. Kingdome was demolished in an implosion on March 26, 2000. Because the Seattle circuit was created for GT2 in 1999, before the Kingdome's demolition, it has been left unchanged and the Mariners' now completed home, [[Safeco Field]], remains under construction, not to be completed until 2002.<ref>[http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0970347383/gamewinnersstrat ''Versus Books Official Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec Official Perfect Guide''], Empire 21 Publishing, 2001, [[ISBN|ISBN 0-9703473-8-3 and 978-0970347381]] p.94</ref> A section of the Opera Paris course passing through [[Place de la Concorde]] was traversed by [[Claude Lelouch]] in the short film ''[[C'etait un rendez-vous]]''. There are no changes in weather or time conditions during races. Even during the 24-hour endurance races, there is no transition from day to night or between different types of weather. All of the tracks are run in dry weather, with the exception of the [[Tsukuba Circuit | Tsukuba]] Wet Race.
