With GT Sport Support now basically ending, this now has me wonder whether it'll be all hands on deck GT7 from this point forward. Shame I won't be able to transfer those liveries since I still don't have the game, but its whateves at this point.
 
The updates before and after spec 2 were notably lacking in content, so it was less that spec 2 was good, but probably had content pinched from other updates. We didn't get more content, we just got it all at once to make us think we got more.
Yeah thats what the rest of my post said?

I noticed today, when setting up a custom race, you can’t change the distance between opponents in rolling starts. The slider just snaps back to the minimum (15m I think). Is this a bug? If so it must be pretty well known I’d imagine. That’s annoying.

Happy New Year to all of you!
 
Having a look at that X post. Went to have a look at Kaz’ past posts. This one popped up

Today is Gran Turismo's birthday.
It was first released in Japan on December 23, 1997. The package includes R34 GT-R and JZA80 Supra.
The photo was taken in the paddock of Sportsland Sugo.

A circuit still not in the franchise. We’ll see what 2024 brings…

How can the GT-R be an R34 when the car didn't come out until 2 years after the game released in 1997?

Sugo confirmed!

But not!
 
I would love at least one more Japanese circuits! Japan has got only 8 circuits venues in GT7. (9th circuit in the category is Australian.)
The Far East has iconic and fun circuits that could be added, such as Inje Speedium and Everland Speedway (ROK), Macau and Shanghai (CHN), Sidney Motorsports and Phillip Island (AUS), Hampton Downs Motorspost and Highlands Motorsport (NZL).

South America and Africa themselves are also lacking representation! There are a lot of good things there, especially in Argentina, in Potrero de los Funes.😍

Sugo would be a good addition, but Motegi (one oval and several layouts!) is a categorical imperative for GT7!

The LFA is the only returning premium car from the PS3 era, but there’s a handful of former standard cars. It’s a bit strange.
And only two in 2022, being the Cappuccino EA11R and the Celica Rally Car. Here's hoping for more in '24! Of the roughly 200 options, I hope one is the Kübelwagen, to duel with the Jeep.
 
Well...after 10+ years, I finally got a new GT. Got myself a PS5 slim and a digital copy of GT7. I love the visuals, I love the sound quality, I love the atmosphere. I'm not a big fan of the campaign-through-menu books though. I'm not against the approach per say, but why, oh why, does every single race need to be a catch the rabbit affair? I end up building cars to just blow everyone away just to spite the game. Did I need a Bugatti Chiron to win the european hot hatch challenge? Of course not, but I'm sick of trying to build a "competitive car" only to have a short, arbitrary 2 lap race with the leading car starting way way out front. Also, the steering animation is waaaay too slow and distracting. They need to fix that.
 
Even though the oval isn't in a usable state anymore, I'd love to see Polyphony digitally restore it if Motegi came back. That kind of intermediate 1.5-mile oval would be something unique to what we already have, and a digital restoration of it could be a neat marketing/documentary piece

My wish for 2024 is we get at least one of the Japanese's tracks that are missing in GT7 - Okayama , Sugo and Motegi

Those are the 3 big ones in Japan left.
Looking at the calendars, Sugo & Motegi feature in both Super GT & Super Formula, while Okayama only features in Super GT.

Autopolis was released around the same time as the Dallara SF19, so if we see any of them I'd speculate it would come alongside a trio of 2024 GT500 cars as a themed update.
The main generations of GT500 we have are 2008 & 2016, so if they continue to have that 8 year gap, the 2024 cars would be next. When they would be added to the game could vary though.

It also helps that for 2024, all of the manufacturers will have newer models than the ones we have in-game:

Nissan: GT-R -> Z
Honda: NSX -> Civic
Lexus/Toyota: RC F -> Supra

it would be great..but I dont expect new super gt, new gt3, new lemans protos etc ..till next game..
seems they don't care about them..wonder if they chose other path ..or they just don't have content to give

what about Daytona tri-oval ?
 
what about Daytona tri-oval ?
Daytona is what's known as a "Super Speedway", at 2.5 miles long, and you don't need to lift off of the throttle really. Motegi's oval at 1.5 miles would be classed as an "Intermediate", and requires lifting if not some light braking.
I'm not American so not an oval expert though haha
