Aussie Cars in GT7 - I wish

[05XR8]

Forza adds Aussie muscle to the franchise in its latest dlc. I’d love to know what licensing deal Microsoft-T10 have with Supercars. I know Skaife always been involved with the talks, but dang, is he kind of blocking Sony+PD? Do Supercars just not care to deal with PD? It’s just weird to me since the GT Academy GT3 and V8 Supercar entries, there’s been nothing happening.

Doesn't have to be Supercars specifically, I would love to see the Veskanda C1 in the game as long forgotten relic or the Brabham BT62 series.

If Supercars license is closely tied to Microsoft then at most we would only expect a single car under that manufacturers license like the whole F1 licensing shinanegons.

The Veskanda is definitely a motorsport gem worthy to be in the GT franchise.

It can’t be exclusive, as iRacing have just added the Gen 3 Supercars and the Bathurst 1000 is ran each year as a special event much like the Daytona 500/24 Hour.

Considering the added cars are 7 years old I doubt Microsoft still has an active Supercars licence.

Maybe thats what Kaz meant by “eventually”.

Wouldn’t there still need to be an agreement with all manufacturers and owners for all cars in a game?

I just posted this in iRacing.

Virtual Gen3 Supercars released

The iRacing Gen3 machines. The US-based platform has released virtual versions of the Gen3 cars as part of its ‘2025

iRacing’s collaboration with Supercars has previously included the development and release of Ford and Holden Gen2 and Car of the Future machinery.

Australian circuits currently available on iRacing are Mount Panorama, Phillip Island, Winton, Sandown, and Oran Park.

The Adelaide Street Circuit and The Bend Motorsport Park have recently been laser scanned by the service for future release.

Would be nice in a GT game.

It would be nice to be able to drive a Supercar with GT’s more forgiving physics. I’ve tested the old legacy VF Commodore in iRacing and I can’t do more than a few laps without binning it.

It can’t be worse than Forza’s forever spinning rear tyres.

It does irk a little that this month, iRacing is adding Gen3 Supercars, Forza is adding a few more Australian cars/utes, but as far as GT goes for Australian content apart from Mt Panorama and scapes, still nothing doing...

I am not sure if licensing issues would be a limiting factor given they are on multiple different platforms.

I had to remember GRID also have Supercars.
