What are the odds we will be able to put slicks on the rally Gr. B cars?

I get the feeling our chances are slim, which is a shame as I'ld love to drive some of these around a circuit.
They look beasty. :D
I would hope you can, considering the usual ratio of circuit/street tracks to dirt/gravel I don't expect more than 2 dirt tracks, considering how weak the car list is that would be crazy IMHO to put limits like that.

We'll see I guess.

Sounds fair to me too.

The only reason I worry is because what class would they fit in?
Particularly the Mitsu Evo X which already has a Gr. N, Gr.4, and Gr.3.

Saying that, perhaps that's only relevant in Sport mode races.
Online lobbies should be free for all.

Still, Gr. B tarmac races on dedicated servers with match-making sounds pretty good too. :)

That raises another question.
I wonder if they'll hold dirt events in Sports mode?
Haven't seen any evidence of it yet, but I guess they will.
 
Considering GTS in more of an eSports centric game compared to the rest of the series and has a vast amount of VGT's/Racing cars compared to production cars, I wouldn't bet on GTS having a drag strip.

You'll probably have to wait until GT7 for something like that.

Or, if you really crave a drag strip, Forza 6 has a few.

I hope it is included in gt7 then as it would be great fun and I could see it being very competitive.
Forza I have never played I just don't gel well with xbox. (twice in my life I tried only for a couple of mins, no likey)
My son had a game on xbox could have been forza but there was a voice over like the guy on the waltzers at the local fair ground shouting down a microphone which was really annoying, trouble was to get rid of him you had to mute the volume so no engine noise nothing. Could have been a different game he played so many, and my memory isn't the best.

I'd say they let us throw slicks under any car we like. In GT6 it was possible, remember the Group B Audi. Not allowed to tune tarmac-wise would be quite a disappointment.

ル・マンからトリノへ移動してFIAスポーツカンファレンス。

徹底してローカルなものこそ、真のグローバルになりうる、というのがグローバリズムの本質なんだろうと思いますが、ここはまさしくローカルそのものです。

最初のパートナーシップの発表から3年目、デジタル・ライセンス・プログラムのワークショップも2年目で、だいぶ参加国が増えてきました。

スポーツマンに限らず、上手に歳を取る、というのは簡単ではありませんが、アリ・バタネンさんは、とても良い歳の取り方をしていて、お手本みたいな方です。

パイクスピークで崖から落ちたこともあるバタネンさんに「このあとパイクスピークに行ってNSXを走らせます」とお伝えすると、「そうか、大事なのはとにかく楽しむことだ」とアドバイスをいただきました。
 
Evening Gents, Just returned from Goodwood, What a muddy humid day! Wasn't my favourite FOS by all means... But I have some GT Sport Information to share!

Good News is that GT Sport is present at Goodwood FOS this weekend, FIA have set up a Stand themselves displaying One Pod of GT Sport. At the time It was set at Brands Hatch GP with the Bugatti Vision GT Car. I decided to wait It out till lunch time and the stand became very quiet and I jumped on asked If I could change some settings and run a different track/car combo, I hoped on to Nurburgring cheekily & Tried the New Hyundai Genesis GR.3 Car as seen in the previous Off Screen Footage. I got my other half to film the lap so this will get uploaded to YouTube tomorrow as BT have screwed My Broadband yet again!

This Build was the latest one visible at E3 2016, Has the New Updated Lap Counter/Fastest Laps Displayed in the Bottom Left Hand Corner etc. & The Sounds in this Build felt a lot more stronger. The Demo also felt more stable which is great news. The Hyundai Handles great around the Ring and visually coming along quite nicely.

I asked the PlayStation Team about PD's Presence here this weekend and they informed me that they were on Site but Kaz is back as Base in Japan I believe.

There is also another 2 Pods Set Up at the VW Stand, These are Equipped to Celebrate VW's 40th Anniversary with the Golf GTI, So you can expect the Car Combo to be Fixed to this, Again same Build as above. Both Builds progressed along since the London Unveiling Event that a lot of us have attended. ITV were also Filming something which Included GT Sport which will be apparently be on UK TV but I have no details on when this will Air. I also Spotted Roisin Hogan on the GT Sport Pod she was getting the Full Works Treatment in how to Race on the Pod, She was The Apprentice 2014 Contestant so I noticed her quite quickly If I wasn't mistaken!


No other GT Sport Pods are set up anywhere at the Event from what I discovered but if you are about this Weekend head down to the Stands and check them out!

Frame Rate felt more improved than the London Unveiling Build. It was steady and there wasn't jaggies/screen tearing that I had encountered on the London Build. I noticed It more on the Ring from the last Build so I wanted to test the same on the ring, The Cockpit also seemed a lot more brighter but this may have been because of the car choice. Too early to tell still!

Thank you for your feedback :)

I hope others members will give their opinion :)
 
Question, would Britain leaving the EU affect anything with FIA license?
It's possible that U.K. based events might no longer be sanctioned by the F.I.A. and they might have to form their own governing body. In French it might be the Federation de l'Automobile United Kingdom or F.A.U.K. for short. Pretty sure I heard a lot of people on the telly saying F.A.U.K. last night during and after the referendum so maybe they are getting a head start:sly:

So there is a FAA for Asia ? It s a non sense to get a FUKA just for UK
 
I've found an interesting video with Automobile Magazine interviewing Kaz.

In it the interviewer asked Kaz about putting race cars he likes into the game.
Kaz begins to speak of the BMW M6 GT3 he raced at Nurburg 24h this year, and that they re-created the car in the game, and when they were testing setups they would do it in game and then go out on the track.

So, BMW M6 GT3 coming to GT Sport?
Have a listen and see what you think.
The question is at around the 8 minute mark of this clip.

 
This is a little off topic, but I remember the translator in the video here, in the Gran Turismo PSP presentation. I can't believe Gran Turismo PSP came out 7 years ago :eek:

I played that game excessively!
