So if the test track is returning and Redbull ring possibly (I can't wait!!!), did two other locations get dropped that are on the track list?

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


OMG! What if we get the Astons AND the Scottish track?!

 

[OooAhh Cantona]

Does someone have an AED?! I think @catamount39 is going to have a heart attack today!

 

[mister dog]

You have to be joking. Literally just realised from this vid that old hockenheim was the track I used to love playing on an old f1 game years ago. What the hell did they do to it?

This is how it looks nowadays :

Too bad environmentalists would go nuts if someone wanted to bring back the old track.

 

[Telstar]

Sad pictures.

 

[mr_serious]

Did you 'skip to end of session' instead of accelerating time?

Sadly no. I drove around to the pits and watched the last half minute or so on the timing screens. The post session timing screen had me in first place ~1s ahead of 2nd place.

Anyone has a clue?

Rallycross for PCars 2

Uh...guys...doesn't the Callaway Corvette have a sequential gearbox with a shifter like that?



OOOOHHHHHH MYYYY GOD!!!!!! It's the Callaway Corvette!

 

[c172fccc]

Rallycross for PCars 2

I don't think they would tease a car for a game that is coming in 2 or 3 years.

 

[c172fccc]

Ok, guys, I found... I found what it is...

Didn't you guys wondered what we were getting in the Red Bull pack earlier today?

Spoiler: DLC

 

[ProjectWHaT]

Bit of a stretch I think.

 

[jake2013guy]

It looks very similar to me.

 

[Blood*Specter]

The Touring Car mod from GT6? Looks a lot like it.

Nah, I'm sure it's really the 1,032hp monster I showed. Look at the rollcage, the shifter and the handbrake, they are exactly the same.

Here is another picture of the cockpit for comparaison:

What in the name of the coitus is that contraption?! A drift monster? Pikes peak?

Edit: Ok, found it. What on earth do we need a drift monster for?! Please dont tell me the "coming soon" part is a drift mode, I hate hate hate hate haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate drifting in games...

I agree. I will confess though that it's mainly because I'm no good at it

 

[skazz]

The pCARS physics will handle that power and the tyre model is good for nuanced grip loss so the drifting itself will be fine. It should only be a "points for angle/speed" system, nothing more.

I've never liked drift mode on slightly less simulated games such as GT or Driveclub, but drift mode in Assetto Corsa (accumulating points for angle and speed) was actually not bad since the physics are believable. What AC also has is a bunch of tuned variants of their road cars specifically prepared for drifting (basically simulating after-market suspension kits and power changes). If pCARS wants to do drifting properly, it will need to provide upgrade kits.

 

[Spooky Wooky]

I'd rather have motorbikes.

 

[jimipitbull]

Drift lobbies act like magnets for idiots. It should help clean up the online racing.

There is a real driving simulator that might help you

PGR4?

After seeing that pCARS is getting a Scotland track, I got the game back today relatively cheap.

Now hurry up SMS.

Drift is an official part of motorsport so it would be appropriate to have in the game.

Oh please,your kidding? I could say Monster Trucks are part of Motorsports too, so they should put that in?

I actually wouldn't mind that.

It is considered part of Motorsport, much in the same way that synchronised swimming is considered part of aqua aerobics.

And count me in for monster trucks. Also, cranes and helicopters are already there, would be good if we could drive them.
