90° banked wall on Route X?

[squirlybmx]

Anyone else notice the giant vetrical wall on the inside of the straight after the pit exit? Why in the world PD wouldn't make that accessible is absolutely beyond me. The only possible explanation is that the physics engin doesn't allow a car to reach that angle and stay on the road without slipping down, even if you have sufficient speed to do so, but I would assume that the physics engine of GT5 is advanced enough to model what would actually happen if you took a 90degree banked wall at high speed.

It doesn't look to be a finished model. It may be there just for looks.

.. also the banked portion of the old Monza..

..why there are no Cape Ring courses in Reverse, they're 100% modelled..

...where is Suzuka West, it is 100% modelled...

..why no Tsukuba Short, 100% modelled..

Questions, questions.

I thought there were....could be wrong...was one of the old seasonals - the american muscle/cars maybe???

On the Cape Ring courses, have you folks noticed the green hills following you in your rearview mirror? There seems to be a polygon priority issue.

I'm sure that the X1's will stick to it.

Looks like a standard track to me.

Looks like a standard track to me.

Looks like a hugely expensive concrete pour to me.

 

[MOTORTRENDmitch]

DAMN!!!! I had never seen that that is intense!

 

[Camaroyenko]

That's actually modeled after a real place but I forgot what it's called

 

[oppositelock]

Never noticed that. Looks like it would be fun.

 

[ZohsixGT5]

Hopefully this section of the course will be unlocked at a later update. Thats just me dreaming of course. Seems strange to me that they would model all of that to never be used.

 

[squirlybmx]

That's actually modeled after a real place but I forgot what it's called

Mercedes test track in Germany.

 

[MagicFerrari]

I think this part of the track should be a future update, not a DLC.

It would be annoying to give us a DLC with SSRX and then another DLC with a section of SSRX.

Technically speaking if you took a non laterally aerodynamic car and put a rudder on the spoiler, it would act exactly as an aerobatic plane and airflow would deflect off the side of the car (newton's third law) thus keeping it.... in the air? Or on the wall? Which makes more sense?

Like a 2CV with 500 hp and a massive spoiler and a rudder on the spoiler?

They follow you? Do they have eyes too?

Because reverse courses are EVIL and you would gain a life ban if you raced backwards on a real circuit Now if PD could just get rid of all the other reverse tracks...

I remember, 750pp TT, where everyone used the FGTs.

Except when the reverse course is better than the forward version.

You are EVIL Nasanu and we know that for a long time now

Hopefully they have thighs as well.

Haha, that game was awesome.

 

[Perkel]

wasn't merc-bennz track where 5gear tested top speed od maclaren f1 ?

 

[M-POWER_FTW]

That's incredible. I want to go 200+ upside down!!!

OBJECTION! I've heard of a real life racetrack that has run races in both directions... I think. Maybe that's the Talledega racecourse, which had to switch directions after a modification to a drainage ditch made it unsafe to run in the original direction. Or something.

I'll never remember now...

 

[Antonisbob]

Wow, that's extreme banking. as said before, Track mania GT5 version basically!
