Anyone remembers this? Is there still hope for RRV to come out?

Also with latest update, car list here have been completed? Besides Nissans I think.

If Red Rock Valley did return, I'd be interested in seeing if Polyphony would give it a couple extra layouts, such as the large long oval, the shorter middle oval, and the "road course" original layout. Would be a very Polyphony thing to do to maximize the amount of use from a single track location/model.

Another funny thing of note is that Red Rock Valley would continue the trend of all new circuit locations since launch being set in North America (and the United States specifically).

If they do add it, along with potential extra oval layouts, it'd be nice to have a Polyphony-original stockcar to go along with it. But that's getting heavily into the realm of speculation.
 
In more news that supports the trend of GT7 seemingly having good sales legs, the 2023 French video game sales numbers were released. GT7 was 12th by units and 13th by revenue of tracked games in 2023 there.

Notably, both of those ranks are better than fellow PS exclusive Final Fantasy XVI did, despite that being a new hyped game and whatnot. Horizon Forbidden West and God of War Ragnarok, the other 2022 first-party SIE games, don't appear on either list.

I still have some of the menus to finish and last night I started the Historic Cup one...menu 45 or whatever. I ran the one-lapper at Nordschleife. About three-quarters of the way around I hit a section of about 3 corners where the framerate absolutely cratered. Just terrible stutters. I just find that sort of thing so dissappointing...it's my most-hated thing in a racing game/sim - inconsistent performance. I really hope PD isn't done optimizing the game to clean up those issues...I'd take that over new cars and maybe even new trakcs in an udate.

Can't wait for the subsequent matching (And savage) graffiti complaining about said potholes.

It has brought a whole new dimension to driving here in the UK................the best response (sad as it may seem) is where folk have gone round & spray painted a nob & balls around the pothole in road marker paint, which seems to make the council come out pretty quick to repair it 😐
 
It seems PD liked a photo of the Ferrari 499P. Would you say this is a car "the majority of people will be happy with"? 😉 😉

We know PD likes cars that won Le Mans. All we need is for every car we want in the game to win Le Mans.

If that was the car people were referring too I’d be happier than a pig in, well we all know how that saying finishes!

trying to identify the front end of the vehicle in the lower pic............thought maybe an early Renault truck...... a coal fired Kubelwagen .............but no...........anyone ?

It's definitely a Renault truck, from the 20's I'd say, like a NN model

After a lot of digging with google lense I was able to find this.

Apparently it was an electric vehicle made exclusively for this company in the early 40s. One of ten produced.

Was that Instagram?

If we assume an all new car takes 12-18 months to come to GT7 - assuming there is no early access - I'd expect the 499P to only be ready by the summer. Getting the car 1 year on from it's Le Mans victory would make sense.

If there's a March update, the teaser is probably dropping tomorrow.

The teaser always come the day before the update. Updates usually on Thursday (then 28th), so Wednesday 27th. I think you mean the Silhouettes, and they can come on Saturday or sunday, so today or tomorrow
 
So what exactly did we gain by knowing this a week early?

What would have been an exciting announcement now feels weirdly disappointing.

I remain firmly against datamining.

So here comes great update! Too bad not 488 but I am happy for those cars too :D

Little offtopic but this seems to be bigger problem with Helldivers 2 where devs are trying to patch new things as a surprise or plot twist to galactic war. I really hate that people are spoiling this fun.
 
So it's time to create a proper GT4 replica tune for the R8 V10 instead of the old R8 V8 we have now.

Nice to see again the Toyota Gt-One TS020... Not so happy for the Urus, but maybe it's just me.

Is it the v10 plus? I read that’s awd. I’ll be more than happy if it’s the base RWD model.

It is the V10 plus, as it was the most popular model at the time. Mind you, the R8 was a cousin of the Lamborghini Huracan after all.
 
So, are we thinking TGR Cup round 1 in the TS020 then? Might be why they announced the date of the GTWS without any accompanying round info.
 
So it's really an R8 V10 Plus '16 right? Not the facelifted Performance or the new GT
 
I'm probably the opposite of 99% of all users, and I'm most looking forward to Urus.
The reason is simple. This is the cheapest and slowest car of the updates.
The car I mainly buy is a road car that can be set to PP600 to use in online races with friends.
The R8, will probably be able to barely get to 600 PP by killing most of its benefits, but due to excessive downforce, PP efficiency will be poor and a car that is supposed to be fast will become slower under this rule.
TS020. Since it is a race car, it cannot be used in the first place. I like it though.
