Great night of racing with this group albeit a small field. What we lacked in numbers, we made up for in intensity. Great job to everyone in D3.

Why can't we put a number on the G37? The thinking at PD makes my head want to explode. They give us the ability to put numbers on cars, but only premium. Okay, I get that, the graphics and whatnot. So why not all premium cars? What decision is made where the conclusion is to not give some cars numbers? There's no reason not to. It's mind bogglingly stupid. Sorry, I had to rant this somewhere. I really like customizing my cars.
 
My guess is it has something to do with the texturing. Standard cars have much lower resolution textures, just rolled over from previous GT games. The layout of the model for texturing could be different from the way they used to do them too.

Besides, you make a massive deal out of numbers on cars. Is it that big of a deal?
 
I think there are far more important things to be concerned about in GT than numbers on a car.
 
Rental Kart League - Round 3 (wish I didn't forget the GoPro, of all days..)
ran the track in reverse today. That was fun!

Just as a heads up for banners pics, try not to cram the car into the full frame of the image. Have a look at previous banner pictures, and you'll see that the pictures typically have the car taking up half the frame or less, and the subject of the picture (the car), is offset and not right in the center. It will help give me more options for banners!

Also, to help ease load times on the page, can you please edit your post @Raw10_2u to remove the duplicate images. There are several in there. Thanks!
