In both previous cases it was 24hr, so maybe we'll see something on Wednesday...
I also have a feeling that the Ferrari F355 Berlinetta that was added in Spec IV, Part 1, alongside Sugo, is not only a reference to the Sega arcade game, F355 Challenge, but also coincides with the fact that this year is the 30th anniversary of Jamiroquai's Cosmic Girl, where the music video famously features the Lamborghini Diablo (albeit the SE30), alongside the Ferrari F40 and F355.
Not that it would be that likely, but it would be a great time to announce Lotus. Aside from that I'm not really sure who else would really Wow the crowd lol. Or maybe some kind of new Red Bull X car, maybe the RB17 for the finale??Will be interesting to see what events get added with Sportsland SUGO in just a few days.
Especially if there's a WTC 900 or not, as that could have implications for future car content, whether within Spec IV or at a completely seperate point in the future.
We know that Polyphony held off from adding a Gr.1 event at Le Mans until the Hypercar update for example, so they might be doing something similar if SUGO doesn't have a WTC 900 on day 1.
If it does have one though, then newer GT500 machinery can probably be ruled out for a long time.
It would already be a bit odd for them not to be added alongside SUGO in October if they were a part of Spec IV at all, unless Polyphony felt like saving them as the "heavy-hitters" to reveal in December.
There should be at least 1 big headline car that is yet to be revealed for December, of the 5 remaining unknowns, regardless of if it's GT500's or not.
Autumn Ring has already been revealed, so that wouldn't be a big headline if they just re-announce it.
There's a marketing element of "save the best for last" so that the December car reveal doesn't fall flat compared to October.
I'm looking forward to the GT World Series Finals, which would be the most obvious place to reveal the remaining cars and announce something to get the audience to go crazy.
Also those of us who have F355 Challenge on the Dreamcast
That's what I've been doing since Spec IV announcement, so much so that now I almost feel sick of it..
I mean, it certainly seemed that way off the line but it wouldnt surprise me. Even the mere fact that the Ai can operate the controls much faster than a real driver ever could alone is cheating in my opinion. Unless im wrong about that and they did simulate the speed at which a driver could turn a wheel or press a pedal.
It's going to be fun to drive Sugo in multiple weathers and times of day!! I hope there's a night or almost-night option! When there's no midnight option I switch the time lapse to 30x so it gets as dark as possible with the R07 weather preset! (R08 weather clouds are too gloomy at night for me!Tick, tock, tick, tock... maintenance has been annonuced:
)
If you can get 570bhp into it, sure! If it releases with the typical K20C1 swap, it could be a good laugh at 600pp. Lack of rear wheel power will make it hard to compete with a well-tuned Alphard, and if upgrades to the CVT make it an adjustable CVT rather than a fully customisable 5/6 speed it'll really be in trouble.
