It's leaked apparently. If all holds true I kinda can't wait for it. It's the slowest of the bunch but I just enjoy it's looks and it dosent sound half bad irl.
It's going down a similar path as the Aston AMR-One as a matter of fact. Some say they may pull the program before the IMSA season is over. It's still up in the air if they will even show up in Sebring in a few weeksAston Martin AMR-One LMP1 was terrible irl but was incredible in FM4. Maybe the same sort of virtual luck for the SC63
From what I've gathered, they seem to be banking on customer efforts to keep it going like their GT3 program & claim to be using its time in IMSA this year to develop the car to be ready as such. Which is strange because even they admit the LMDh class is extremely costly for a customer team.
Them banking on GT3 customer teams to make the step up to Hypercar is a sadly unrealistic expectation. Even at the current cost, running a Hypercar is vastly more difficult and expensive than running a GT3. Out of all the global scale GT3 programs how many could realistically run a GTP/Hypercar? They burnt the bridge with Iron Lynx which was one of the only ones I can personally think of. Plus with WEC rules requiring 2 cars (unless a privateer entry) might also drive away potential teams wanting to step up. IMSA doesn't have that issue but given the cars performance in IMSA over the past Daytona and MEC rounds, I'm not sure any customers would feel confident in the package they're being delivered. It seems like Lamborghini themselves have almost given up on any hopes of the SC63 performing well since they don't seem to really be all that invested in the actual running of the car. Even Nissan put in more effort with the GTR LM Nismo and that car was arguably worse than the SC63 in terms of results and performance. Lamborghini needs to have a strong rethink on the entire program IMO. If they seriously believe in the cars potential they need to show it by committing more as a factory manufacturer and rely less on a theoretical customer team to solve their problems. It would be a crying shame if this car was relegated to the history books because of a lack of commitment. I'd hate to see another small Hypercar manufacturer leave the sport.
Losing Lamborghini would chalk up to 4 Hypercars that have left the class since it's inception. Glickenhaus, Vanwall, Isotta F were the other few. I do hope Lambo can get it together becuase theres still 5 solid years left of this current format but chances are dwindling quick.

And so soon after the BMW M Hybrid V8 gives me great hope for the Acura ARX-06 to follow suit.
usually it is reveled first on Forza channels, i feel strange that it was leaked by this post instead of the usual post on Forza website
I didn't forget. As I'm taking part in the Insider Programme I don't comment on leaks that could have come out of that programme out of principle.
Exactly! Although I would expect the Valkyrie AMR LMH to not arrive this year as it's very much early days. It took the SC63 around a year from its debut to get into the game.
It's going to be interesting to see if any other hypercars get added, they would certainly be welcomed. I would love the whole field to be included but something tells me we probably won't get that far content wise. The 499p is I believe the most requested car for the game so I imagine that could be on T10s radar to aquire, perhaps once they drop the ARX-06. Peugeot is also highly requested so who knows what will happen. If they add a couple more this year I can't really see what would stop them from adding them all.
Looking forward to all these cars.Game Pass Monthly post confirms a few cars of update

I would love to eventually get the entirety of the Hypercar field both in WEC & IMSA but I have a feeling a few manufacturers are gonna be harder to get on board than others. I don't have too much hope that Ferrari & Toyota will make it to the game, or at least this title. Maybe next Motorsport. The ARX-06 would be an awesome addition and I could easily see it happening later this year.
Seriously? They don't even have all the features or content worked out for this one and we're already talking about the next one? Let's take it a bit easy. After this one, there isn't a next one. This one should probably resemble something remotely close to being a finished product before wild accusations of a Forza Motorsport (2)?? 🤷♂️ lol
Toyota maybe given there's been licensing issues with past Forza titles, but I don't see why there would be any road blocks in the way of the 499P aside from an exclusivity agreement with another game. Ferrari has generally been on very strong terms with T10/PG & iirc, we have most of the brand's line-up produced in the last 10 years including their 488 race cars. I wouldn't rule out a 499P (or 296 racing variant) to arrive sometime this year. Although, given T10 also delivering the entire XX Programme line up, a 499P Modificata is a possibility, but those are still pretty new & I believe a handful have been delivered.
