Swear I saw posts saying it was coming out tonight... My bad. :lol:

Probably Demo's. I don't think It'll be that hard to find it once it hits. If it's not plastered all over the main page, a simple keyword search for Gran Turismo will find it.

Thanks, that's what I thought.
This will be my 1st, and I have not been driving in a while.
Practice will be required :)
 
Yeah I would be really surprised if they don't have a big advertisement/button for it on the main page once it's available.

Oh that's pretty cool, I look forward to it, hopefully I can at least play on it :p
 
For europe what time will it be ready?
 
Check the Euro thread.

Seems things things changed around here. :odd:
 
My feet are getting warm.

Now that we are in the next season of GT Academy I wounder how much smoother things will be?
 
I think things are going to be smooth as butter this year. Last year had it's problems as did the years before of course, but they have proven that GTA is a credible path to top level motorsport through the successes of Lucas and Jordan, and the team podium at Dubai. The GT world owes them all much thanks. Add to that they're putting Jann straight into a GT3 car and Bryan in a GS shows the confidence they have in this program, best of luck guys. I'm totally stoked to play though I fear the level of talent is going to find me floating outside the bubble, but we play for fun. I look forward to some fun racing in the Spec racing forum rooms. This should be Epic Y'all!

Nice, new sub. Today's the day!
 
Can we download and play it? From Turkey
 
I know what I'll be focusing on for the next 8 weeks.
 
OK, so they said one of the first challenges will involve the Leaf. I am thinking it will be on the London Circuit. It just seems as a good fit for the car. High Speed Ring looks better for the GT-R. SSR5 looks like good track for the 370Z. Tokyo seems good for the GT-R or the 370Z. Anyone else have ideas to the car/tracks setups that PD have set?
 
So I wasn't around for the academy last year, so I've got a quick question. Do they allow tuning for the cars that are used? Looks like more of a license test on each element so I'm thinking not, I sure hope not I'm pretty terrible at tuning.

Looking forward to this, should be fun.

Edit: Yeah, the leaf on High Speed ring would be ... interesting. Seems like your theory of cars and tracks looks good to me.

I'm just guessing but I think its an educated guess: No, I do not believe they'll allow tuning. If everyone uses the same stock car then it's all driver skill and more quantifiable.
 
Hello, I don't know a lot about GT Academy and was wondering if I could still win the GTA cars for gt5 and not have to do any real life driving as I'm not old enough to drive. Is this possible? Thanks!
