I really don't like "electronic rock". But whatever, do what you want.

 

[WaLT_100R]

Edm and indie rock are my favorite. Best driving music meng.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Indie/Roots Rock is great. 90.7 WFUV in New York is great. You can listen online to get an idea of the type of music. Really good stuff. I also like Post-Rock. This Will Destroy You, God Is An Astronaut (seriously AMAZING driving songs), Explosions in the Sky, Tortoise, Battles, Sigur Ros. But also Aphex Twin, that's the only electronic music I like. Because it's not unsk unsk. There are some great rock bands, like Delta Spirit, Dredg, The Fratellis, Mastodon, and The Sword, to name a few.

 

[IceWarden]

I'm in!

You have a link to that song? Nevermind found it, hmm. Yea upbeat rockin music without lyrics is not easy to find imo. Beside I like trying to use rock music with lyrics that say something and try to match that message in the video footage. Like using Too Close song for the main promo and showing lots of really close racing. But glad DW recommended Glitch Mob stuff, really liked that! Will be looking for more electronic rock as such to use.

This is the true Gran Turismo song! Includes lyrics I know.

Hands down best GT song ever. A close 2nd was GT3 or GT4 with the Van Halen intro.

 

[WaLT_100R]

Ah

This is the true Gran Turismo song! Includes lyrics I know.

[Dragonwhisky]

Preseason Testing​

As I did during past seasons, I will be hosting testing sessions for the next season on Mondays @ 9:00pm Eastern doing a series of short practice sessions on various tracks that I will use to determine the voting options. This will also help in producing the upcoming season promo videos. All series drivers are welcome to attend these testing sessions.

Season 5 will feature the following cars:

​

Monday 10/20 we will be testing the 2008 Lexus - IS-F Racing Concept
Monday 10/27 we will be testing the 2008 Lexus - IS350 GT300 Base Model
Monday 11/03 we will be testing the 2007 Lexus - IS F Touring Car

Thanks

This is my favorite old GT song.

use the media icon and the normal url for the youtube video

 

[IceWarden]

Love the Cult...great band.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

I have a feeling the IS350 GT300 will be next season's car. The IS-F Touring Car is wonky with 8 gears, and the Racing Concept is a tad heavy.

I have my favorite and already know how I will vote (keeping quiet though) for next season however all three cars should be a lot of fun and provide some interesting challenges.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

I'm working til 9 and can be home by 9:30. How long do you think the practice room will be active?

 

[GGGMotorsport]

At least an hour. Depends on who shows up

Holy crap. 1:32???!!! I've run that course at least 100 laps in the past few weeks and thought I was smooth at 1:35.5.

Great driving.

Thanks! I found time through the downhill s turn light tap let off gas get back on smooth and the neighborhood late apex and the second to last turn brake late hard on brakes trail brake through turn let the car coast get back on throttle surely you know you won't hit the wall. Found a lot of time. This track is going to a hard track to pass. From my experience racing on ss 5. tyre management is hard. If your too careful on keeping tires good lose a lot of time.
