From a Japanese blog I understand that NASCAR cars will have full damage and (yes, here we go again) that a release date will be announced soon.

Yamauchi "GT5 cars will be smashed to smithereens in Nascar. Featuring up to one bolt."
Yamauchi said, "I can announce the launch date soon."

Edit> The above quotes prove to be a joke on that Japanese blog and were never said by Yamauchi in the Lovecars TV interview.

Patriotzero's friend Christopher has watched the interview and has provided us with a translation of the most interesting parts. Thanks for that guys! 👍

- The ps3 is the only console that can run the physics and even a good PC would struggle.

- With the improving broadband they are able to allow more & more players to race each other.

- There have been problems with wall bouncing & spinning other drivers out in Prologue and this will be addressed for sure by the time of release.

- The game will feature Auctions of cars by them and us, so its may be a good way to get the realy rare ones

- Kaz said again 20 tracks including Rome.

- Day night races confirmed again, not all tracks said.

- They are going to continue to give upgrades & updates to Prologue right up to release.

- Microphone communication between players online.

- The Pit Crew will be fully ready and implemented for GT5 as seen in some trailers.

- The Game will have some region specific cars.

I was going through prologue license events again the other day and i got really excited about NASCAR while doing the daytona events. 200+mph in a Ford GT is one thing, doing it in a pack of 16 cars when the slightest mistake will mean "cars will be smashed to smithereens" is quite another. NASCAR series will be so tense, I can already tell it'll be made of win!

This.

I mean in NASCAR a little bump at 170mph creates dents and a proper shunt is when all the bits start to fly. If the damage model really is this detailed then the smash-ups could be absolutely spectacular.
 
The NASCAR translation is incorrect, what he meant to say was:

"NASCAR will only have one bolt fall off, even in the largest of accidents. When the game comes out, run into the pit wall at 175 and see the beautiful bolt laying on the ground!"

In the spirit of speedfreak69...

My girl friend is Japanese, and i will love help this forum, but a 2h30 video speaking will impossible for her to translate all. BUT, i was ask her if she can found the part for Damage speaking into this video (If they is) and i was ask her if she can say me the most important news from that.
 
I would say that this sounds like an E3 release date.

He is definitely at E3 as he confirmed this in an interview about Le Mans, surely not even Sony could describe TGS as "soon"??

Thanks!! In the mean time, hopefully Jordan is working on it for the news section!
 
K,Y come back at 0.58 and leave at 1.21.
Damn, he'd better be talking about GT5 :lol:
EDIT: I think I saw a few beers on the table. Drink Kaz drink, and tell us everything :D.

Hehe if you put all Kaz interviews in one Word file and Ctrl+F "Soon" you will find it alot I'm just saying :D You wonder how long is this "Soon"
 
I'm sure they'll release info before E3, maybe a week or two at most, but they wont release the big guns that they have in store. Most companies do, then again, they aren't like "most" others.
