That track is really difficult on the pad due to all the direction changes. Not a fun combo. Put in what I think will be good enough for gold and moved on!

That Porsche TT is bloody awful. Another car on which Polyphony have seemingly nadged the handling up. Had 3 attempts and didn't complete a lap.

Is that the one around atlanta?
I thought it was a lovely handling car, nicely balanced and easy to catch and hold a slide on (im on a wheel if that makes any difference). One of my favourite TTs to date

Polyphony still hold the exclusive licence for Pikes Peak I believe. Someone on Reddit posted that they were there in 2010 taking measurements of the track and last year handed out copies of GT7 in competitors welcome packs. Hopefully they will make use of the licence, but they also had the Super GT licence and only used that sparingly. We never got the whole roster of cars or tracks.

Still play it when I get a free moment, usually just a the 1hr race at Spa. The new cars are a nice addition, hopefully we will get some longer races and another track maybe.

It may not get much of a look in with the new WRC game coming out tomorrow.

Such a massive shame that's not going to be PSVR2 compatible.

Played a bit of Dirt Rally 2.0 to get me back in the mood and my god it's engaging / exciting in a way GT just isn't. The sound is sublime. Really excited about WRC, pleased to hear it's basically just Dirt Rally but with an EA budget, shaping up to be really good.

Looks like a healthy update in terms of cars. LFA, 400R, 992 GT3 RS etc. Hope they get the sound right for the LFA!

Noticed you was on it earlier...

Must admit it was thrilling to play flat out in Finland and great sound with the headphones...

must get out the wheel again and have another go...

I'd need a large bucket close by if it was PSVR2 compatible! Those trees don't hit themselves.

Yeah Dirt Rally 2.0 is just more visceral than Gran Turismo, the engine sounds are near on perfect in Dirt Rally 2.0. Gran Turismo as a series is more like a love story to the automobile and the visuals are stunning, but when I've just done a 10 lap race around Spa the car doesn't have to look like it's just stepped foot out of the showroom.

Yeah that's actually the best update car selectino so far for me! Not fussed by the 911 or the Tesla, but the other 5 are all brilliant and right up my alley!

The others look to be a Merc 190 of some sort (hopefully a homologation special comparable to the Sierra Cosworth and E30 M3), the old Dodge Charger and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat (or whichever model it is), which is going to be comical as well!

Think it might be a Demon. That'll be interesting in the corners!

Also hope the pricing is reasonable. Last thing I want is an LFA priced at 20 million.
