It’s not an assumption that this Twitter account is reliable. It’s a fact.
I know, I agree. But it is an assumption that Grand Valley will be in this update or is coming soon because that Twitter account used the word "Speedway". I'm not sure why you're arguing.

MAZDA RX-VISION '15
MAZDA RX-VISION GT3 CONCEPT

Changed their ride heights for this comparison. (both 80mm : 80mm)

The RX-VISION is a truly beautiful concept car, but the GT3 CONCEPT has aggressiveness and coolness based on its original beauty.
Beauty Yet the Beast, I really love it. The design team did an excellent job.

Yeah, there’s a cool write up, how the design team had the most challenging time with the fenders of the GT3 car.
 
Correct me if I'm mistaken, but I don't recall the Suzuki VGT Gr.3 appearing in any datamine. I only remember it being mentioned in the "Road" Car's description up to this point.
To answer your question, for the Suzuki VGT Gr.3 it was mentioned in the new VGT's bio at the bottom. "Look out for the Gr.3 version of this car" or something like that.

Oh, I didn’t realize you were referring to that. I don’t see anyone making an outright assumption that Grand Valley will come in this update. It is only being discussed that the Tweet could be a subtle reference to Grand Valley possibly getting added. I’m not expecting it by any means, but I could definitely see it happening for reasons already mentioned previously. I’m not arguing more than you are really.

This game is just missing some things that'll keep players glued to it. Features, certain cars, certain tracks.

•Sport mode needs a race D. That can be a race where its like a hour or 2 long.

•The game needs to introduce muti class racing

•lobbies need shuffle racing, qualifying, leagues/clubs and a smoother online experience

•More American street cars, like Chevy cruze, cobalt, Ford tarus sho. Just more street cars in general. NASCAR needs to be in the game too.

•The game desperately needs more tracks

•Make it to where engines swaps isn't a rare thing

My bad for my making a wishlist but all of this stuff can be introduced through updates. I don't wanna hear any excuses. Most of this stuff I named we had in past gran turismo games.

Add Seasonal Events to this list with well paying live events that include, but not limited to - Time Trials, AI races, AI Championships, Drift Trials, and more.
 

You think it might be a one point for motorsports diversity, but it turns out that she has NFTs written all over it.
This is shadier than promoting a Kickstarer or Onlyfans page. What a weird thing to give attention to.
 
Yeah it's clear as day that PS4 version is holding back PS5 version of GT7 and what's even worse update after update they're removing small effects from game just for the sake of PS4 version running smoother...
When you look at pre 1.04 PS5 version of the game and now the difference is huge...
80% of all small effects are gone now and sadly those effects make game 100 times more immersive...
Umm, what? If they removed effects on the PS5 version, it's because they wanted the PS5 version to run more smoothly. Those effects would just be removed on the PS4 version if that were the case.

If that wasn't found in a datamine, then there's potentially other content that we don't know about. Might extend to unknown track content also (not the ones we've seen in other datamines like Road Atlanta etc).
Only Polyphony knows.
That datamine is old, according to the person who did it. That's why.

Indeed. Really bizarre article to post on the GT site. Barely even tangibly related, other than the livery being in the game but so are millions others. Has she paid?

You are correct here -

I think the datamined list (if 100% entirely legitimate) is safe to assume not to be the entire remaining content that will be coming to GT7 but rather a large list of cars that are coming (again, if 100% entirely legitimate) at some point in the future in different updates. I also think this datamine that was uncovered is only a part of a major data collection (just an potential “it could be” though but only time will tell).

Perhaps another datamined list containing more content may/could be found in the future but until then (if then that is), content on the side of the cars at least is looking highly promising.

Seen her before at some car events... down to earth girl

 
Not sure if anyone has tested this, on wet tires when the track is drying up I try to stay on the wet parts of the track with the hope of the wet tires lasting longer,
but the tire wear seems to last about the same as driving on the drying line, if it's different it seems negligible, at least that's my experience.

I do it anyway. I haven’t noticed a difference, but try to hold out for my strategy.

Someone here said they tested it and came to the conclusion that it does work. So at this point, I don't know.
 
I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere but on Saturday the official GT instagram congratulated Max on his pole, then soon removed. Which is interesting given they don't ever post anyone other than Lewis...
It was just an error, it was meant for the Silverstone Circuit socials. The same company runs that and the GT socials, they put it on the wrong account.

Here it is when they put it on the correct one

Yes I do that and it does make a difference, especially for full wets that wear very quickly on dry track. For intermediates the difference is less noticeable.

It was only today I realised that the tyres for the BAC Mono 16' has Pirelli branding, which is weird for a modern road-going car. It's even weirder to think that Pirelli is absent in the "racing tyre sticker selection" in GT Auto.
 
Something I thought: Could someone file a lawsuit against PD/SIE regarding their Pikes Peak track license if someone deems that they have no intention of using the license in-game?
For what? If they want to pay for it and the owners want to sell the rights to them then that's a complete transaction. As I recall NfS held the Porsche license for years and did bugger all with it despite it infuriating people who just wanted to sim-race cars with the engine in the wrong place.

Even then EA did use the IP in their games, though. Or rather they they did for most of it, there was a weird stretch from 2002-2004 where there were no Porsches in the games with advent of the Underground saga.

It seems sketchy that an entity could lock out use of an IP without purchasing outright ownership, I believe there’s laws around this king of thing in the film industry and has caused interesting things to occur with superhero IPs over the last ~20-30 years. It also seems like something similar to domain squatting which also does have legal precedent, but I really don’t have thorough knowledge on what type of IPs can be treated in what way, legally.

I have Pirelli tires on my car, it's a huge brand for tires, unless I miss your point!
 
I think it’s the Mazda RX500 and Trans-Am, the only other cars with tyres brands. Those have Goodyear lettering. Notice the brakes on the BAC mono are APRacing as well. Not sure of any other brands, besides Brembos, on other road cars.
