Sprint Cup will not run in the rain because when they switched to the Car of Tomorrow, the car has a different wheel size, making the existing Goodyear Wets obsolete. Goodyear does not want to invest in testing to make new tires, nor do the teams.

Nationwide was able to use the tires in Montreal because Goodyear had built those tires in the 1990s and never used them (although they had briefly been used in practice at the Suzuka exhibition event in the rain), they were sitting around. However having used up part of that 90s supply twice now, and with Nationwide switching to their own Car of Tomorrow, the possibility of wet weather races in the future is now nil.

Actually, they brought in completely new rain tires for the Montreal race in 2009. If you noticed, they were running a lot faster, about 6 or 7 seconds in qualifying, at least, in conditions that ended the 2008 Montreal race. But then again Marcos Ambrose is a road course master.

Personally I think Rain will be available for all tracks, sans the ovals (atleast for NASCAR) and dirt tracks (that would get messy pretty fast, :lol:) with snow going in places it's applicable.

I hope and I think so, Chris. It was once confirmed on a French website that dynamic weather would "play tricks" on us. So I believe there will be a reasonable number of tracks that feature that.

Can anyone confirm which tracks appeared on the trailer? But I'll watch that trailer anyway and see it for myself someday XD

Yeah that was actually the other day, infact, :lol:

I noticed Lemans, Toscana, Eiger, a Snowy Rally track that was either A custom snow track or Chamonix, and the Nurburging was featured on the opening screen to the X1 Prototype, I missed about half the trailer typing "WEATHER" though (Should've put the stream on my 2nd monitor, haha)

All of those tracks with snow and/or rain?
 
Those LMP cars look gorgeous at night, even on that crappy res!

Nope, only Eiger and the Snow track, I think Indianapolis Road is in there in rain too, and possibly a SSR track.

Edit: Also, now that I've seen the whole trailer, looks like there's one part where it's not snowing at the rally track then it starts snowing, hint of Dynamic weather rather than static!

Chris.
 
Rain looks just like I had dreamed about but I always thought that was asking too much. And it will look even better in HD.
 
kablaaaaaaa:O
 
This thread is going hard.

So anyone up to Go Kart Nurburgring Nordschleife?
 
Off to bed now.

Please keep the pictures and the videos rolling in (specifically the 2 trailers) from the conference. I will look through all the new posts and update in the morning. Looking forward to more information in the coming days! :)
 
I can't stress how happy I am to know that Trial Mountain is in GT5. To me that course is Gran Turismo.
 
According to that Kotaku link, KY is showing off some of the rally course editor stuff right now.

Come on PD, im waiting for a last day surprise... announce Porsche god damn it!

Hells yeah. Best track ever, perfect combination of corners and is just awesome to drive in any car 👍
 
weather looks awesome... i think as well as rain wind is possibly in there too... it seemed that on some weather clips rain was being pushed around the windscreen. and on other clips dropping on the windshield and being wiped away.

but damn awesome.
 
The co-drivers voice is audible on rally stages, according to the live updates.
