Special GTR, is it obtainable for me...?

Would be nice to be able to change the number from "1" if you go into the one make race with it all the competing GT-Rs will have different numbers.
 
strange that the danish fins and swedes arent allowed it :S

It's even stranger the Belgians can't have it..
The Dutch in the north have it, the British in the west can participate, the French in the south can, as well as the Germans in the east..
But fortunately I'm Dutch.

Well, they had seen the Gillet Vertigo and...uh, sorry. :dunce:

Now, I believe that it's often also affected by legal issues. Many countries have laws regarding lotteries - and it's very often not possible to meet certain criterias. Some countries, for example, might have a law that's saying that you shouldn't have the need to purchase a certain product to participate - which is impossible for GT Academy, since it's all based on Gran Turismo 5, which you'd have to purchase.
 
What sucks is The US GT Academy got nothing for just "Competing" in the GT Academy, even though it stated at sign-up "even if you do not proceed to the next round, for just competing in the GT academy, all users will be rewarded with special in-game prizes"

This still annoys me to no end - if you don't want to give out the cars, fine; but then don't promise them. Sony marketing messed this one up.
 
Are you able to:

Make another new PSN Account registered in a country that can participate? Can you log on and get the car?

That is possible. No problem there. I've done it, registered and started the time trial, drove for few seconds and that was it. When I went back to the GT Life, the car was there.

Unfortunatelly it cannot be send to my main account in ticket or car gift form.

So there is basically no use of that car ... :yuck:
 

That link doesn't really help at all if you're not a member of that "thing".

But OK, not every country is treated equally I guess.

Maybe get to have a chance next time they have an EU Academy race at least.:guilty:
 
I don't get it. I know there has been (yet another) mix up, confusion regarding Italy's GT Academy, resolved since, but Italy is indeed listed in the official rules. Yet, once registered, I did not obtain my free car.

What gives?

You'll not only need to register, but actually log into the Seasonal Events, run some laps (probably just 1 will do) on the actual combo, then return to the GT Life home page and it should reward you.

If you do the above and still don't receive a reward, check to see if other Italian users have received their car. If they also haven't, it may be something at PDI's end.

That's not a huge help I know, but here's hoping it works out for you.

All the best

If you do actually do that, you will only have the car on your fake French account. The car special Academy GTR cannot be gifted so you'd never be able to use it on your main account.
