Master every 'The Pass' mission in Gran Turismo 4. Learn expert overtaking techniques for Deep Forest, Grand Valley, Seattle, Sarthe, and more.
This guide covers all ten 'The Pass' missions in Gran Turismo 4, focusing on advanced overtaking techniques across various iconic tracks.
- The Pass: Deep Forest
Location: Deep Forest, 1st corner.
Objective: Improve basic overtaking. Brake for the inside of the rival car on the left hairpin after the hill. Timing is crucial; brake too late and you won't make the inside line. - The Pass: Grand Valley
Location: Grand Valley, 1st corner.
Objective: Practice race techniques with the BMW 3 series. Brake late and pass on the inside of the rival car at the right-hand bend after the gentle left. Aim for the inside of the corner while braking. - The Pass: Cote d'Azur
Location: Cote d'Azur.
Objective: Master braking for tight, blind corners on a street circuit. After the long downhill, there's a tight right turn. Braking is harder downhill due to the risk of oversteer; brake early enough to make the corner. - The Pass: Seattle
Location: Seattle, 1st corner.
Objective: Overtake cleanly on a circuit with a long straight and a sharp bend. The 180-degree right corner after the straight is the passing point. Brake hard from high speed, but not too late, as the flat road surface offers less banking. - The Pass: High-speed Ring
Location: High-speed Ring, Corners 2-3.
Objective: Practice a series of maneuvers from the start. Race through the left-hand banked corner, then brake correctly for the first right of the following S-bend to pass the rival. Avoid braking too late, which can cause you to drift wide and be overtaken on the next bend. - The Pass: Tsukuba
Location: Tsukuba Circuit, Dunlop Bridge to second hairpin.
Objective: Navigate the most challenging section of Tsukuba. Maintain a continuous driving rhythm. Decide the best exit from Dunlop Corner, proceed through the 80R, and brake for the right hairpin. Avoid moving too far outside the corner. - The Pass: Midfield Raceway
Location: Midfield Raceway, Final hairpin.
Objective: Drive the Golf GTI and practice maneuvers leading to an overtake. Close the gap in the first long sweeping left corner after the tunnel. After the next gentle right, take a straight line while braking towards the inside of the tight left-hand corner. - The Pass: Trial Mountain
Location: Trial Mountain, 1st tunnel section.
Objective: Master high-speed S-bends and an undulating section. Maintain a smooth rhythm through the S-bends. The left corner leading to the tunnel is the passing point. Take the inside as the road climbs, being careful not to lose too much speed. - The Pass: Motegi Oval
Location: Twin Ring Motegi Road Course.
Objective: Engage in a braking battle on the steep downhill straight. The right corner after the straight is the passing point. Find the right braking timing to move inside, and ensure a smooth exit line using the full width of the course. - The Pass: Sarthe I
Location: Sarthe '04, Mulsanne Straight.
Objective: Pass three cars in succession on the Circuit de la Sarthe. Overtake at the first right-to-left chicane after the straight, the second left-to-right chicane, and the right-hand bend after the final straight.
