For those curious about the karting track...

Here is a couple pictures of the real thing.

I'm sure they added it for gamescom because Siena's Palio Horse Race took place a few days ago :D
 
I'm personally hoping that some of the cars in the Gamescom demo are standard so the debate of cockpit views can be put to rest. I also believe that the damage system might be the best out of any current console racing games, they are yet to show their hand (No public demo with rollover shown yet, shows they are restricting demo builds quite heavily). I wouldn't be suprised if they have standard tracks too as well as premium tracks. Maybe that's why they kept showing the old GT4 Nurburgring upscaled, to see what us the fans think of the quality of the track.

About the updates. With karting confirmed, I wonder if they will start also releasing force feedback pedals. Skidmarks look quite realistic and not overly dark.
 
I can't believe we'll be able to drive around San Galgano! I thought it was just a photomode location...

So there are three different Tuscany tracks?

Piazza del Campo (karting only)
San Galgano
Valle D'Orcia (dirt circuit)
 
Why nothing tomorrow?
The blowout is supposed to happen at gamescom.

I don't know.... I'm sure there's going to be something, but, I think they'll hold off some really major things until TGS, the last big event of the gaming calender and the one before the game comes out, in PD's homeland.

Actually the behind doors session starts in 5 hours or so.I don't really care actually,I'm happy with what we got today.

This as well, even knowing skidmarks are there is a plus 1 for detail.
 
OH crap! Thats the place from that scene the 007 movie. I think it was Quantum of Solace.

Not going to happen.

Those cars are too classic (Miura, XJ13, etc) or just too awesome (Zonda R) to be standard. There has been no demo that has featured a standard car model.

They could announce the features for the game at gamescom and then use TGS as the place to announce the full track and car list.

This would be ideal. Hope this happens.

I'm just trying not to hype myself so I'll either not be disappointed or have my face melted by awesomness.
 
The skidmarks were a surprise for me. One thing I'm not completly sold on is the karting. I know that many people have requested it, but I have a hard time imagining how that would play out in GT5.

Oh well. At least we get a Miura. 👍

This car could be standard, Esprit V8 ‘02 .

I know that no demo has featured a standard car model hence the hoping.

Are you the the same SolidSnakeX from the GT5 thread in Neogaf?

I think that would be premium. The Esprit even had its own video game back in the day.

These are all the Esprit cars from GT4:

Esprit Turbo HC ('87)
Esprit Sport 350 ('00)
Esprit V8 GT ('98)
Esprit V8 SE ('98)
Esprit V8 ('02)

You can see that the 2002 one is on there so, it may well be premium but it has a good chance of being standard. One of the other Esprit could be premium instead or all could be standard. We'll find out soon.

It's premium. We've seen it numerous times with the Enzo, F1, ZR1, ACR, SLS AMG, etc.

PD is putting their best foot forward at the demos. That means showing off the best built rides; the premium ones.

Marketing, baby. ;)

Possible, but I'm skeptic. I don't think they will spill the beans just yet.
 
I hope we get the Cinque as well. I personally like it better.
 
Zonda F and Zonda R are all that is needed from Pagani. Maybe the new C9 when it is released.

WHy? It's a lesser form of the R. If we only get one zonda, I'm glad the R was picked.

I don't think we have seen it as a car that is selectable yet though?
 
So, at this point, the only things the other series has that GT does not are a livery editor and rewind (the latter is irrelevant), correct, or am I missing something? Excepting specific tracks and cars, of course.
 
Can we get Confirmation of the full old Monza circuit with banked oval (10 km / 6 miles)?
 
So i guess we are pretty close to knowing all of the 200 premium cars then? must be around the 160 - 170 mark?

i wonder what 200+ means? 210? 250 even?

I think it's closer to 210ish.

200+ sounds like "Phew, we made it! And we were able to add a few more but not enough to give it its own specific number because that number would sound weird all alone!"

212 I will guess.
