Weird, I heard the 1998 Daihatsu Midget II was the sole unannounced car for this update.

Source: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Would rather have this classic instead.

C7 is newer than C6? We also had the Racing Modification(imaginary) C6 racing car.

...the point is we had C6R, they could bring in C7R and not some crap of Gr3 car... Proper GT3 car...

Thats more and more crap .. more and more every month.
.

..The most important thing in the game being absolutely neglected... forgotten... ignored ... since practically the game was released..

The main update /Fix that the game misses/needs is a correct, fair and honest punishing system for incorrect driving behaviour! (Penalization system)

Those other minor updates dont mean a thing without this implemented!

You mad, bro?
 
Pumped for the update!

Hoping to also get penalty zones in lobbies, kinda feel like lobbies don't get enough love :(

Speaking of, would also love being able to set up a proper race weekend in a lobby, ala PCARS2.

But back on topic, so hyped to try the wet, really hope we get multiple tracks with wet condition :)
 
the VW Schwimmwagen is included in the update and has been upgraded with a powerful 50hp engine :eek:
If it actually came to the game, that's probably the max power after fully leveling it up.
It will also be featured in an upcoming daily race at Sardegna with heavy rain..
Is this the kind of heavy rain the Schwimmwagen will be racing in?

Well that's a disappointment. The only other car we're getting is one we've seen several times already. But on the upshot, I may actually be able to afford the X2019 Competition.
 
To be honest I expected a little bit more, anyway rain is coming and this is huge for me. Probably Kaz is workin on something huge for the finals
 
Also, consider this, we had a C6R corvette, yet we got a imaginary Gr3 car in GTSport, what's that all about?!?!

Nope, we did not.

C6.R (GT1 Version):


C6.R (GT2 Version)


C6 RM Race Car


Inspired maybe (If you squint hard enough and ignore that all they literally did was Stretch both the Front and rear Fender flares while still keeping the Road car grille and headlights instead of the Proper C6.R ones) but just like the C7 GR.3 Race Car, the C6 RM Race Car is a PD original. The last actual Corvette Race Car that was in the Series (Apart from the Stingray Racer Concept AND the C2 Z06) was the C5-R, which was a generation old carry over from the PS2 days.

...we need more proper racing cars and new grouping for the game.

If you look at the Gr2 or SuperGT cars, the 3 new one are outclassing older models by far, and TBH older models are more as of GT3 cars.

Why exactly? The Older GT500 cars are not equal to GR.3 level performance. Even with the advancement in Tires and everything else, GT3 cars are still not keeping up with the GT500 cars from 2008 thanks to the absurd amounts of downforce those cars have (as well as them being closer to Silhouttes as opposed to Production Based cars). Here's a good real life example for reference:

GT Class Pole Lap from the Asian Le Mans Series At Fuji 2018: 1'37.852 (James Calado, Ferrari 488 GT3)
GT500 Class Pole Lap from Super GT Fuji 500 Km in 2008: 1'34.491(Takashi Kogare, Takata Dome NSX)

Now imagine that being a race. Add those laps up over time and its not even a contest.

Another Example:

2018 Suzuka 10 Hours Pole Lap: 2'01.740 (Nick Foster, Ferrari 488 GT3)
2008 Suzuka GT 300Km Pole Lap: 1'51.163 (Micheal Krumm, Motul Autech GT-R)

Again, no chance.
 
Well, I expected them to only and these 4 cars that were leaked, but didn't expect the red bull. Nonetheless, the car selection is good for this update, only just a bit small. But considering we are getting 4 new layouts and maybe rain, then it will be a great update
 
Aderrrm already confirmed thta the X2019 will be loads of fun! :D

It's got a V12 for the entertainment value. Everyone loves the sound of them. We're not trying to meet emission regs here. ;)

It also has shorter gear ratios, 1-4.

The car has completely different aero. It has generally lower aero and moves around much more, but with more drag so lower top speeds. Actually really fun to drive. Which is saying something considering the boring the new physics. :P

Wonder if it's been developed only by PD? 💡
