variety of races in GRAN TURISMO. We'll start with the QUICK ARCADE mode.
Select QUICK ARCADE from the Main Menu.
SELECT YOUR RACE MODE
On the QUICK ARCADE menu, you can choose from three different racing modes
plus three other sub-menus. Use the UP/DOWN Directional buttons to
highlight an option and the X button to select it.
Here, the SINGLE RACE mode is used as an example to explain the flow of
gameplay in the QUICK ARCADE mode. For more information, see the individual
sections on each option later on in this manual.
