Anyone know if Sophy can drive the new Afeela?

Probably not. Takes a while for them to make new DLC cars compatible. Still waiting for the C5 Corvette.

So my Sophy V8 series was supposed to be at Laguna Seca this weekend, but I did a test race there and it's slow. So I decided to drop that track and jump forward to Road Atlanta which is much better for Sophy.

Here are the qualifying results for Sunday:

It doesn't seem there's much effort to fill in the custom race car gaps.

I get that the new cars need training but Sophy still can't drive, i.e., the 300ZX '89 on Suzuka, and it's been what, 5 months?

Big boo-boo by yours truly. Was gung-ho on testing out an Afeela one make custom because the one car I used for the new race at Road Atlanta handled pretty good. So bought 10 of them and did the livery thing. Only to forget and realize that PD doesn't really allow customs for these special cars. So now I have 10 Afeelas all ready for nothing. Good thing I hadn't gone the full 20 yet! Maybe one day we'll be able to before GT8 comes out, please!

Don't get me started. The 3.0 CSL and 512 BB still don't work at the Nurburgring yet and that's half the field of one of my custom races.

I'm really disappointed that nothing was added for Sophy in this update. At the very least, I thought they would have added the Suzuki Carry

No live stream for the V8 series from me today, I have some things I need to do out in the 108*F heat.

I'll likely do it tomorrow which is a holiday for US. Same time as last week.

Yeah I'm pretty disappointed, really sucks there is no communication with the devs for this game so when they make moves like this you have no idea if they will get back to work on it next update, next year, or GT8. Hope we get back on track next update.

I'm going live here shortly, about 30 minutes early so I can run some errands afterwards. I'll edit this post with the link.

Edit: Here we go!



Edit 2: Thanks for those who joined! I purposed made the race a little shorter due to having a lead car pit at the end of the last lap during my test race. But I guess the Mustangs just get terrible fuel mileage because even with the shorter race they still pit twice. Other than shortening the race more, not sure what I can do about that. Maybe just take fuel out of the picture and force them to pit for tires...

Either way, here are the updated points standings after Road Atlanta:

Really cool seeing my Randstad SLS livery in the mix. Very close racing with the Gr.4 V8s, gives off Gen 3 Supercars vibes.

Great racing from the back. You showed Jan how to overtake that Vette. Good choice for a track switch too. I like racing RA with Sophy.
