Interesting to note, it seems they implemented the Ioniq 6 N with the simulated gears:

They don't typically post about physics/BoP updates in the trailers, right? They end up just being a surprise day of.

The last big physics change (well, last but one, as it was tweaked for the bouncy cars and then changed a bit later) was indeed in the blog posts the day before:

Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.49 brings six new cars, updated physics simulation model, and more on July 24

The update also marks the return of a GT original circuit, Eiger Nordwand.

Being local-ish to Whistler, I'm happy to have yet another location (like the previous British Columbia ones in scapes) that I can take my RL car to too recreate pics from the game c: We may not have a proper racetrack this side of Canada but at least the scapes are representing!

@Gt6_Champ1980 rather than putting a 💩 on posts you don't like, maybe accept that there's validity to the comments.

It has been over a year since any of the new cars have been added to the list of officially supported cars, which means you either struggle to find a place to use them online, or you're forced to race against Reggie, which is it's own struggle in finding fun.



A quick video showing the 2022 Porsche GT3R in a Sophy race. This is my teammate in this set up and I use the Sophy cheat to equip it with the Porsche. It successfully raced on almost all the Sophy tracks. Finished respectably well a few times. Now I'm teamed up with a driver using the 296 GT3. FYI, all the hypercars work with Sophy 2.1 as well.

They keep giving us new cars, and no where to use them in a fun capacity. The only true differentiating reason to have the PS5 version is Sophy, and every update, that differentiating reason is ignored. Why? It's not a technical reason as evidenced in the video. Sure, it isn't all cars on all tracks, but that's true of the officially supported cars as well.

I will post a video on Friday of the Caterham in a Sophy race to prove my point. Would you like to see me create a one make race, or race it against other cars? And then the important question, if I can make this happen with a cheat, why can't this be officially enabled for everyone?

Hate to be that guy, but street cars are the very foundation of Gran Turismo, including ones you'll drive "exactly one time". 🤷🏻‍♂️

And @BlazeTheCat05 wouldn't even have to make this comment if they simply (officially) flipped the variable to enable Sophy.

Of all the things I don't understand about PD - and there's clearly a lot that I don't - one that's towards the top of the list is why they think "3 Race Events" is marketable enough to be title-worthy.
 
If the Caterham does not get featured in one of the new races, it will almost certainly get sporadic one-make special events for the weekly challenges.

An average update, but I give PD credit for continuing to add content 4 and a half years after launch.

My prediction is that one of the Toyota's is 5-speed manual, while the other gets the 4-speed auto.

And neither of them gets more than 5-speed gearbox even when fully upgraded.

JTCC/LM edition Chaser had 6-speed sequential.

So, I got it half right regarding the transmissions on those Toyotas, but I keep my prediction regarding the number of gears after upgrading them still being 5.

Added bonus: this update marks a major milestone where 150 cars have been added to the base game since launch.

It's possible by early next year we will hit 600 cars.

Whistler... If I remember correctly, Ice Arena from GT4 was located in Whistler.
