My thoughts for the cars is in this update

Aston Martin DB3S CN.1 1953 (Gr.X)

Not Much intrest in this, but i understand them that do, its after all a new car to the series,
And people that claimed there is no race car in this update, are simply wrong, old Classic or even gr,x its still a race car.

BMW Z8 2001 (N400)
I don't know what to really say about this car.
Its not My first pick, but will give it some tries.
I would be more excited for a BMW m5 e60

Ferrari Dino 246 GT 1971 (N300)
Most likely the Ferrari i dislike the most besides the daytona, but its ok to me, and could be pretty Quick in the classes its in.

Honda Integra Type R (DC2) 1998 (N200)
The most supriced car in the pack and i am excited to drive it, and we finally have it in premium form. One of the best cars in the update to me.

Nissan Fairlady Z Version S (Z33) 2007 (N300)
This car will be very good to have back. I like it a lot, Also one of My favorites in this pack.

Porsche 356 A/1500 GS GT Carrera Speedster 1956 (N100)
This is pretty cool i can remember driving it for the first time in NFS Porsche. I will pick it up for sure.

Shelby G.T.350 1965 (N300)
Great muscle car good to have some more, Also one of My favorites in the pack

TVR Tuscan Speed 6 2000 (N400)
Finally we have tvr back, do that mean we get the speed 12 back Also, i would Love that, still a great car to have back.

Track special stage route x
I don't see the hate on this track, its an Amazing test ground for testing the perfomence on your cars, would be Amazing if they add like the wind to this track with all fastest N Class cars along with gr,1 and gr,2
I was most supriced with this track, never expected they would ever add it in gt sport
And i am glad they did, becouse i Love this track,

I have not played gt sport yet with the latest update but will as soon i get time this weekend
 
Well the update is good! 👍

I like Special Stage Route X, spent many hours drafting at high speed last night.

The biggest improvement for me though is the fuel management warning, that fix was long overdue.

Now it flashes up in the final section of any lap before the pit lane entrance and disappears
again at the end of the pit lane and it's been made smaller so it doesn't fill up the full screen.

I bought the Shelby GT 350 only but haven't raced it yet as spent some time making my Miku/Sakura
Miku liveries for it and some photo's but I hope this appears in a one make or car from garage
one make race soon.
 
Went snooping around Route X last night, to see what kind of details were there. Apparently they share airline service with BMB...

Stunt jets? About 7 or 8 of them.

The BMB jets are queued up like at BMB, but much farther apart. I kept checking on this one during the lap, and it hung out over the mountain for a while, before coming in.

When I get the time, I plan to do some comparison shots of GT6's version, and this one. I've already seen some notable differences.
 
Well, I am not one to go on the debate about what should/should not be included in a game but for me I would like to see GT Sport
include every car that has been included in the Gran Turismo series in the past so I am actually quite happy with some of these older
cars being added today as they are very firm favorites from the past.

I know it is very unlikely to happen in this installment but just remember this is not the final GT game we will have and that the next
game will most likely feature a whole lot of new cars we have not seen before along with everything that's on the current game.

I dont
Capslock.

Condescending is calling others dudes when you don't even know them or even drive with them. I'm not your dude.

What's wrong with certain types of players? Is it condescending that you are very much interested in top speed and acceleration on a 30km track?

I don't think it's condescending to go off-road, to do drifting, but yeah whatever floats your boat ofc, even if you want to press throttle for a 30km long lap.

But saying this track is needed to test straight-line speed and acceleration is flawed tbh, because there ain't no such circuits with such a long straight. It's pure fantasy purpose imo.

Only reason they've included this track, is probably to see how a former fictional GT track on previous platform does on a PS4 with the GTS engine and how it is appreciated by the players. Could be a sign for future updates. Don't see this track gets included in the FIA races tbh.

You must be a Jonny come lately to the franchise. You clearly don't understand the use of the track for players who like to test their cars for top speed and acceleration. There are lots of fictional tracks in the game and this is just one of them. If you don't like it fair enough, (but as I said previously) don't try and make out this track is for some player who is below you just because you don't understand how useful it is to the rest of the community. And you are simply a dude to me as I don't know you.

I'm a bit of an airliner dork (hello Dorkfest 2019!) so let me geek out a little on the commercial jets:
Looks like 777-300 body 5 doors on each side.
767 tail and apu. Not A300/330/340 due to the downward slope at the top side.
The vertical stab looks like 777 as do the large engines. They look like P&W
A330 wings due to the winglets.
Let's say A300 landing gear. Not 767 or A350 due to not forward leaning, not 330 since the sets of bogeys seem closer together. Definitely not 777 since not triple bogey.
All this on AA's old bare metal livery.

Any other airliner guys/gals?
Nice pics BTW
 
AI seems to be broken on route X, suddenly increasing their top speeds while cornering by 20% without any slipstreaming involved, always having a rabbit you can never catch up to regardless of its car etc.

Good to see the new track was tested thoroughly.

Something is very wrong with the AI. I was doing a Gr.3 race at Route X, got to P1, my top speed was about 293KM/h. Then the AI started to pick my slipstream and they reached 303KM/h... but here comes the strange part, I was pulling away from them! How is that possible?
 
Ferrari Dino 246 GT 1971 (N300)
Most likely the Ferrari i dislike the most besides the daytona,

Just a curious question.
Now I can understand the dislike for the Ferrari Dino but I don't understand the dislike for the Ferrari Daytona even more.
Now I cannot comment on the Daytona for GTS because we don't have the car yet but in GT6 the Daytona was one of the best stock handling/power classic cars in the game. It was a strong competitive car in the 500pp category as well.

I've been waiting for the Daytona to arrive in GTS and seeing how popular it was in the past and I'm disappointed we don't have it yet.

So just out of curiosity what was it about this car that makes you dislike it over every other Ferrari in GT?

My favorite video game lore is Gran Turismo Sport lore.
 
Yes I'm so serious! It's a fantastic but difficult track and hence I am looking forward to the Circuit Experience which will FINALLY teach me how to go quick on the demanding roads!
It´s not necessary a tutorial to be fast. Good racing down there lol
 
The Teg is a good FF car to drive, and then I immediately made a setup to increase its power to 222 HP and reduced the weight to 94% of its standard weight, plus some suspension, diff and transmission tuning, and applying a Castrol livery by @SlipZtrEm to complete the car!

No Spa, Underwhelming cars and also wait 2 week for this update.

This is how I feel about it.
Perfect,, I agree with that caracature. With the fading fanbase GT now have they dump this POS in our lap. As so many say,, where's Spa? Where are the ORIGINAL GranTurismo tracks that have been a part of EVERY version of this game? Trial Mountain, Deep Forest, High Speed Ring to name only three? C'mon PD,, get your heads out of your derriear and give us those standard tracks we've driven since the first version o GT, we know you have them.

Finally the time to reach the top speed of the Samba
Well said

SSRX may not be what you wanted but its expanded the lore considerably, what if Special Stage Route 5 is also located in America now? What about the other original Gran Turismo tracks? Where is A Spec Andy really from? How does brand central get so many cheap japanese cars?

Big questions that only PD can answer, but we have to find them.

Where do I find these on the track, I want to do some shots myself as I plan to make the livery for a car or two and show them with the planes
so a reply would be appreciated!
 
I hope SSRX circuit experience breaks down the track sector by sector. I have extreme problems memorizing the different sections of the track together as this track is sooooo long. Even longer than the Nordschleife. :eek:
I know but it would be just like PD to pull a full lap only on us so we can't learn it properly...

Maybe they could put that mission from GT4 in it. The one where you not only have to slipstream the AI but also get the AI to slipstream as well....

I don't like the way its looks, that why. Its to me one of the worst looking Ferrari ever made. I can understand it has its fans, but i would not care of it come back or not
