I have won the Jaguar XJ13 today and i'm happy i bought the Ferrari first
In real life you cannot change the car every race to the one that suits the track best. That‘s the main problem with BOP at the daily races, people just use the car that is the best for the track‘s layout. The FIA Manufacturer races do a good job with this as you can‘t change your car mid season and have to stick with a car that might be good on one track but terrible on another.
For daily races it‘d need a BoP-per-track design, which is a whole lot of more development and research job and another easy opportunity for crewing the BoP up.
I have not looked at the stats of the Ferrari and Jaguar vintage race cars, but I do know that race cars of that era were very lightweight. This helps handling, braking, acceleration, tire wear... everything. I bet the F40 is several hundred pounds over the 330P4, even with modifications. Also I have noticed that the fastest AI car will often come on strong during the last few laps. This happens consistently and I first noticed it during the original 30-Lap Maggiore endurance race (Porsche required).
Yea I had to use the Gr.3 458 to beat this one! Was almost a clean race too until the 330 brake checked me into the first chicane on the final lap! I had the last laugh as he seemed to get stuck on one of the barriers and ended up finishing 5th!The problem is, the car behaves unrealisticly, depending on how fast you are. Just for the hell of it, I ran the race last night in the Gr4 Ferrari, with max upgrades, and even then, I just barely won the race, with the 330 finishing .2xx behind me.
In the production 458, bone stock, I ran 1:57 - 1:58 laps, in the Gr4 I was running 1:54, with one 1:53.2. The quick time for the race was held by the 330 at 1:52.3.
Seeing as he gets faster as you get faster, I'd be curious to see how fast he can get. Unfortunately, I've reached my limit.
Seriously mate ! That is great spending so much money on 1 car and then getting the other one for free.I have won the Jaguar XJ13 today and i'm happy i bought the Ferrari first
Rally - Its not rubbish any more.
I wouldn't go that far personally.The rally mode is a dream come true in GT Sport. I love it so much! Now it feels like you're not on ice anymore, which earns PD yet, another big plus for that!

True, but I wouldn't go as far to say it's waste of resource either. At least they're making progress, right?I wouldn't go that far personally.
Rally in GTS is now not the mess it was, but it's still one of the most basic interpretations around, with rather basic physics. Even if they fix that side, the stages still have no idea what they want to be. Far too wide to be a point to point stage, too wide for rally cross and missing jokers for rally cross.
Hats off to them for fixing it, but it still feels like a waste of resource.
I disagree, there is many ways to earn credits in GT S and this is one way:

after 12 min in Premium Sports Lounge - Blue Moon Bay with the Ferrari F40, i haven't tried the Porsche Cup Endurance, but you can earn more than 400.000 with clean race bonus 50% and there is more ways to earn credits without using glitches and grinding for credits has always been a big part in GT.
I was afraid of this, but i had a feeling they would cost 20 mill each, but i'm not surprised, GT has always been about grinding for credits to buy cars, right now i'm happy PD didn't include the Ford Ford Mark IV or else i had to grind even more .
The BoP changes should be an early april joke i guess... worst changes they could possible make only because of there stupid fixed setup crap!
RiP Porsche ffs
They had one thing to do, to nerf the M6 Torquish Topspeed.. but now lets only nerf the Porsch aaand yes the R8, its too fast..wrf. PD ... i have no words for that BoP change... it looks like they have no clue what they are doing...
I have to say, this update got me back to playing GT Sport (was playing Warframe non-stop before). And I'm thoroughly enjoying the new cars, especially the Supra, Diablo, Viper and 330 P4 (the last of which I got as a Daily Workout reward ). Except for the Ford GT, they are definitely getting better with the sound mixing for the cars. The Supra feels very punchy, and the Viper, along with driving it using Chase Cam, gave me GT2 nostalgia. As for the 330 P4, yeah I need to turn down the volume a couple notches every time I bring it out, because it's loud. In a good way.
And that got me thinking; what if PD already has cars all set up and ready to be delivered in future updates, but they're just holding back because they're fine-tuning the audio for them? Can you just imagine cars like the Lexus LFA coming over to the game and PD nailing their sounds? I. Am. Hyped.
