Dirt & Snow Tracks

Learn how to conquer Gran Turismo 6's challenging dirt and snow tracks. Get expert tips on grip, braking, and cornering for Toscana and Eiger Nordwand.

Off-road tracks in Gran Turismo 6 are the slowest circuits due to reduced grip on surfaces like sand and snow. They feature numerous turns with minimal straight sections, and require specific tires. Driving on dirt demands careful throttle control to avoid wheelspin. For sharp turns, braking while sideways can improve handling. Snow driving is more similar to tarmac, but anticipating turns is crucial due to increased braking distances and lower traction.

Toscana (Dirt) is a 3410.7m track with 15 turns and a regulated top speed of 230 km/h. Based on a real-world Italian region, it allows driving off the marked path into the 'grass' without penalty, enabling wider trajectories. Key sections include a long right-hander after the start/finish, a tight left-hander downhill, and a series of uphill and downhill turns with decreasing radii. Specific braking points and gear recommendations are provided for navigating these turns, including tight left-handers, hairpin turns, and flat-out sections with jumps.

Toscana (R), the reverse variant, offers slightly improved lap times with some faster sections and more challenging corners. It features long left and right hairpins with increasing radii, uphill sections that require careful throttle control to avoid jumps, and tight left and right-handers. The track also includes a very long left-hander with varying gradients and a tight right-hander leading to the start/finish line.

Eiger Nordwand K Trail (Dirt & Tarmac) is a long 7167.3m track with 38 turns and a regulated top speed of 240 km/h. It winds through hiking trails with a significant elevation difference of nearly 450 meters, featuring steep uphill and downhill gradients. The track begins with a tarmac section, including a left-hander and a tight right elbow, before transitioning to dirt. The dirt section includes a very steep uphill, a long right-hander, and a short uphill with a jump, followed by a tight left-right-left combination.
