Assetto Corsa has long been one of the most popular games discussed in the GTPlanet Forums, and one topic in particular has always stood out. The Assetto Corsa PC Mods General Discussion thread is one of the most active in our community, boasting over 30 million views and 123,000 messages alone.

Earlier this year, GTPlanet reached a major milestone as we celebrated our 20th anniversary, and today we have reached another as we launch one of the most significant updates in our site’s history.

As a 14-year-old, I was fascinated by the internet and wanted to create a website for my favorite video game: Gran Turismo 2.

The next generation of gaming is just over the horizon, with both of the main players in the next-generation console market winding up the hype and anticipation. With that in mind I am excited to announce the new Gran Turismo 7 forum opens today on GTPlanet.

GTPlanet is proud to host the largest forum dedicated to sim-racing hardware, and starting today, it’s about to get even better: we’re opening up our Trading Post forum to everyone, making it easy for all of our members to save (or make!) money on games and gear.

Sim racing shutterbugs, get ready: we’re kicking off the next generation of the GTPlanet Photo Mode competitions, and we’re doing it across three of the biggest titles this year.

The GTPlanet rating system is a consistent, site-wide approach to product reviews.

When I am asked what’s the best thing about GTPlanet, the answer is simple: it’s the people. Beyond the millions of posts on this site discussing racing games and cars, the GTPlanet Forums host a rich online community of people building real friendships around common interests.

As I mentioned in my post celebrating our 15th Anniversary yesterday, I’m frequently asked about the availability of GTPlanet apparel. So, to help celebrate the event, I have commissioned new custom t-shirts for our community from a local clothing company.
