I know this feeling. About a month ago I had one of those nonsense dreams. I remember that Kaz used to tease the cars for an upcoming update in the weirdest way possible.
He basically used to retweet posts from random people containing like a collage of some cars (like some folks actually do in real life, begging for some specific models), and he always wrote "one of these cars is coming in the next update", and the same sentence in Japanese right below. He used to do this like five times on five different random posts to create the car selection. Our goal was to try to guess the right car that would come for each random collage he reposted rather than investigating silhouettes.
Does it make any sense? Of course not, it's a dream. 😂

I have a similar issue. We previously arranged a race on the 17th of December but had to postpone it till January because the servers were acting up. This was the day after one of the official streamed GT events. We moved it o the 14th Jan however the servers were acting up yesterday and not sure if it will go ahead.
Seems to be a regular occurance these days, would be good if they could just give us a heads up or y'know, fix it.

So the January update will be one VGT, one fake Sony car, and what else, another Skyline?

Seattle is largely still drivable (I’ve done it in the past year), it’s primarily the scenery that’s changed. The only definitive differences areI would like to see Seattle return, I even updated the route a few years ago. But, rationally, I believe that Seattle's return is impossible.
I believe that the sporting spirit adopted by franchise, starting from GT Sport, prevents us from seeing GT3 and LMP1 cars making crazy jumps in Sport Mode. This would be a mockery for the reputation of the GT franchise that wants to consolidate itself in international e-sport.
Regarding Special Stage Route 5 and derivatives, I also have no hope of returning. I believe the routes Tokyo Expressaway came from are the modernized versions and spiritual sequels to SSR5.

Because of this and pretending that someone from the PD is reading this, I would suggest that they place the SSR5 layout in a new city, perhaps Los Angeles or São Paulo, or in another terrain, as was done with Grand Valley , perhaps transforming the SSR5 and SSR11 layout into a permanent circuit version (autodrome).

1). The turnaround at the start, not sure where progress on construction is now but that may now need to be two 90° around a block rather than a sharp 180 on Alaskan Way.
And 2). Since all versions of Seattle were based off a 1997-1999 era data capture for GT2, you need to extend further south around the new stadiums that were built in the early 2000s. The old layout would be inside the Seahawk’s stadium otherwise.
Other than that there’d be little change to the route, I’ll have time in February to scout out the city and see where construction places things now. The only real limiting factor is PD’s ability to model street circuits at all. One advantage Seattle has over other old city courses from the series is that the elevation helps reduce detailed background modeling work, like in the Tokyo Expressway examples someone posted a few pages back. Westward is the ocean, Eastward-ish is mostly uphill, and where it isn’t there’s usually large warehouses that block views of deep distance. The biggest issues will be turns with the let you see open views to the North/South-ish. Those are fairly level, and will require a large amount of detail put into the backdrop.

On a side-note: would be great to see the newly added "Dashboard" on Gran Turismos online page under "my user site" or whatever it is called in English.
A shame that games stopped doing companion-apps (true, most where not very helpful). If i had my garage on my phone i would use it for countless hours of tuning sheets etc

These days I became aware of the existence of the Sodegaura Circuit in Japan. It is a small circuit in the same style as Tsukuba and Ebisu, and those original Motor Sport Land (GT2) and Motorland (GT4) circuits.
I think PD could try to bring these circuits to serve as a drifting and kart shifter circuit.

Question: in sport mode, does BoP affect all tuning (suspension, brake balance, LSD and so on) or just weight and power tuning?
- 904
- United Kingdom
It's a combination of two settings on the event. BoP locks weight/power, and then "Car Settings" defines which non-weight/power tuning settings then get unlocked to play around with (normally just brake balance and occasionally suspension and downforce), with the others being locked to default settings.

What? It's just BoP (literally Balance of Performance) and then sometimes you can adjust some suspension settings.
There's a lot to be said about the issues in Sport Mode but I'm not sure how those two things are madness or a mess?

New GR Yaris facelift was announced. Won't be shocked if it comes to GT7 sooner rather than later
