Pikes peak Hill Climb is "probably" returning to Gran Turismo (partnership announced)

[GT5 Level 41]

GT7 logo????

I don't even know how that happened. I just meant to put the GT logo.

Kaz should compete in the hillclimb, capture the GPS data and use it to launch Course Maker.

Inclusion of the GT logo on the official 2015 course map is encouraging.

Considering that they are the sponsor of the event, just like the D1GP and the Nurb24/VLN, I would certainly hope the logo would be on official event documents. The windshield banners will most likely feature Gran Turismo on them as well.

Well, if there's no Piles Peak, how about this?

I like this because One, ridiculous BHP for a Focus, Two, they taken the risk to make it a sedan instead of a hatchback.

To get Pikes Peak in GT7 would be so awesome. If they add it i hope they'll place some snow-fields near the top like i can see at lots of videos about Pikes Peak.

Yeaaa, it is pretty cool that GT (or PD) are sponsors for a lot of events.

Honestly though, it's just a pity we don't get some drift locations they sponsor for in Japan; of course, not solely drift locations. Ebisu is one of them, I believe. Ever since I saw Vaughn Gittin Jr. promoting the Mustang there and meeting up with the best in Japan, I was hoping PD would feature that facility in GT (after finding out they were a sponsor). But with GT6 not featuring Horse Thief Mile (nor the kart track) of Willow Springs, I can officially stop believing Ebisu will EVVVVER happen.

Probably for GT7

With PD, you never know...

With the renowned Pikes Peak hillclimb in the United States now totally sealed, the New Zealand ascent is the world’s longest gravel hillclimb at 14.5km with more than 135 corners.

I do know that this isn't a wishlist thread.

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

Whilst we have no idea if Pike's Peak will ever return to the Gran Turismo series we do know it will be in Sebastien Loeb Rally Evo: Watch from 3:21


I'm sorry for the slightly off-topic, I just got overexcited (I love Playstation, and I love rally games!)

Pikes peak is rubbish now it's tarmac.

The Kiwi's know how to do it properly.

Everytime i think of Pikes peak hill climb, i imagine driving and climbing on dirt roads. I just cannot imagine driving on tarmac in pikes peak, it feels weird to drive on tarmac for some reason.
I miss the old dirt road.

A dirt version and a paved one.

That's what I said long time ago.

So, Kaz could enter in PPIHC with GT-R next year.

Why not this year? It's in July and this year is the first time it's been "presented by Gran Turismo".

He said he was so busy that he could not enter by the deadline this year, in that article.

We'll Pike Peak. I think there is no doubt. Remains to be seen if it's ready for GT6.....

I still think it'll come with the course creator, it's been rumoured for a long time, starting with that Red Bull news post for GT5.

I hope you're right.

It would be good to have this track for GT6.

Because if it's for GT7, the waiting can be a bit long

 

[Vspectra]

I'd rather have it for GT7 so it's created from scratch for next-gen. Less cross-gen asset/quality please.

There's a good chance all of PD's recent assets were made for this gen, as well as last gen, at the same time.
