To complete driving school you have to drive across the city in under 2 minutes without damaging the car too badly and without stopping.

This is tricky due to the requirement not to stop but otherwise you are probably pretty familiar with driving through the city at high speed. First person view is a big help on this one to help avoid clipping turning or stationary cars  
This is tricky due to the requirement not to stop but otherwise you are probably pretty familiar with driving through the city at high speed. First person view is a big help on this one to help avoid clipping turning or stationary cars .  Take care because the Super GT has a tendency to oversteer.  Try not to accelerate ''into'' a turn, instead ''out of'' a turn.


When the test starts turn right onto the street going past your garage. Drive as fast as you can along the street until you get to the rise in front of the cathedral. Turn right and then turn left at the next junction. Note that the "racing line" through this point is into the oncoming traffic so you'll have to see whether the line is clear before you decide to take it.
When the test starts make a quick left and right to get onto the street going past your garage. You can cut the first corner; there are no curbs to worry about.  Drive as fast as you can along the street until you get to the rise in front of the cathedral (the trolley track is usually clear, except in the unlucky case you hit a trolley head-on). Turn right and then turn left at the next junction. Note that the "racing line" through this point is into the oncoming traffic so you'll have to see whether the line is clear before you decide to take it.


Now continue along the street until you get to the steep, twisting decline. This is the trickiest part of the course because it is easy to either hit something or lock your wheels and spin to a stop. If in doubt: slow down, because you are going downhill you are not going to lose momentum.
