i2 can only generate track driven line using GPS data, so for tracks without this information you're out of luck, however you can still analyse cornering in other ways like minimum speeds and lateral acceleration.
I have to make some assumptions about how GT6 GPS data converts to Motec log files as I haven't yet looked at this in the game, but hopefully this information will help.
For tracks with GPS data, you can plot the inner and outer lines of the track, but first you need the data. We can get this in GT6 the same way we do it in real life, by slowly and carefully driving all the way around the inside of the track for one full lap, then the outside of the track for one full lap and retrieving the data.
Load this file into i2 and when you view the GPS track map you should be able to see the track outline defined in particular laps, say lap 2 is the inside line and lap 4 is the outside line.
You can then go to the Track Editor and Generate Track. Select GPS as the Method and the Lap number for the inside line. Select the Type as 'Inner Line' and select OK.
You can then repeat this for the Outside line, selecting the appropriate lap number, and if you wish you can also choose your fastest or favourite race lap from another log file as the Drive Line.
Next, in the GPS Track map properties under 'Display', select the lines you wish to show under the Track Map options, inner, outer and Driven.
Once you have completed this, any log file you load with the same Venue name will have grey lines showing the inner, outer and driven lines, and also your current loaded data GPS lines in colour.
Cheers,
Darren.
