変わらないと思っていた前提が、そうでないとわかった1年。「そう来たか・・・」と受け止めるのは「自由」への切符。よいお年を。
I thought the premise remains the same, one year and not found. "So I came," and take a "free" ticket to. A good new year.
 
As long as I can keep the new one I'll be happy. 👍 Options are king though.
 
He tweeted this a few hours ago

あけましておめでとうございます。風邪をひきました。昨年末にレーシングカートでヒビが入った肋骨が咳をする度に痛い・・・。トレーニングしたいが、しばらくは安静にしてないと。

Which apparently (according to Google translate) means

Happy New Year! I got a flu. Every time you cough sore ribs cracked by kart last year. I want training for a while and not at rest.

Hope you get well soon Kaz 👍
 
That translation confuses me.
 
My take is that he's complaining about his flu making him cough, which is upsetting his cracked ribs he sustained from karting? He wants to "train" and not to rest.

I am very likely to be wrong, since I didn't at all look at the source, nor could I really make head or tail of it if I did. :p

Yeah that sounds right blame Google translate :p
 
Well, I sincerely hope Kaz is resting by staying indoors to play and test GT6 alpha on his PS4 prototype, using a custom to be released made by Nissan , game steering wheel and pedals.

Please... Don't make me drool too much. :D
 
I think they're still getting ideas for GT6. Probably playing GT5 Spec III Beta. ;)

I said I would if he unlocks all wheels for all cars. Broken ribs deserve a "walk it off bro". ;p Get well Kaz.
 
Ouch, poor Kaz. I hope that wasn't from testing the crash physics.

Get well, Kaz.
 
I think that Tweet is pretty easy to understand. They guy has the flu. He cracked a couple of ribs in the past while karting and it hurts when he coughs. The only part I question is "training" for what???

Could just be keeping in shape. A lot of the F1 and Indy Car drivers do physical training in karts.
 
Maybe He is planing to do some racing again this year ? ( I would in his place)

I'm banking on another Nurb 24 Hr race. Maybe even Spa 24 hrs or LeMans? We shall see...
 
A few recent tweets:

デトロイトにて新NSXコンセプト登場。ムービーを公開しました。フロント2モーター、リアにVTEC-V6エンジン+モーター内蔵DCTのE-AWDです。 http://t.co/z3i6HFUX
Google: NSX introduced a new concept in Detroit. The movie was released. 2 front motor, VTEC-E in the rear of the DCT-built V6 engine and motor are AWD.

Link points to the GTTV video. The mention of "VTEC-E" (as in Efficient) makes me think it's going to be a "normal-output" engine, like the one they recently unveiled.

New "NSX CONCEPT" Movie now released. http://t.co/eARj3RfN

English version; link points to US English "version" of the same video.


So far, so nothing really new.
Then there's this:

レッドブルX2010が到着した。 pic.twitter.com/8dCtys2l
Google: Red Bull arrived X2010.

Link points to the tweet with this image:

What on earth? Maybe it's just the mock-up...
 
The X2010 is most likely that 1:1 scale model that's been on it's "world tour" since October of 2010.
 
It's the real thing in the box, and Kaz is going to drive it :D

Just make sure to tell people not to put anything on top of that box.
 
Considering that the car can survive 250+mph impacts with barely a scratch, it shouldn't matter much :dopey:

Also, I hope someone tweets Kaz to get the SOUND correct on these DLC cars! :mad:

You know its not him that works on the sounds, right?

Yep I know, but since he's the one who oversees everything, and with his love for cars, he should realize how important sounds are in a driving game!
