How often have you forgotten to hit the "Save Replay" button after an event?

Quite frequently I think to myself "must save this!", and at the end of the event I forget to do it.

I know that this would probably mean a lot of saves and extra consumption of disk space, but disk storage is cheap and getting cheaper all the time.

This option might mean it would be advantageous to be able to filter replays on many different characteristics including type of event, cars involved, tracks, other player names, night/day, weather and so on.

And if you don't like this idea, you could just leave the option in the "OFF" position.
 
Yeah, I've often had the - oh dear the next race has started - and forgotten to save the previous.

Perhaps the simple thing to do would just have a message pop up saying "Do You Want To Save This Replay?"

It might be an extra click but that way you'd get a reminder to save what you want to save and leave the rest.

That'd work for me if the default is Yes. Or if I can chose the default.

Good idea
 
If you just want some food on the go, you'll wolf down a burger and chips.
Probably without much thought.

If you go out for a nice meal in a Restaurant, you'll take your time to savour the food, the company and the atmosphere.

Likewise some wizz thru GT6 racing to the finish, trying to complete the game asap.

I prefer to take my time selecting a different car for each race. Drive the event, then watch the Replay in full.
Saving the Replay, perhaps taking a couple of photos, before moving on. I savour GT 6 and all of the effort that Polyphony Digital have put into it.
 
Best way to do it to stop people complaining; if you have the option set to on/yes etc, when you go to exit/move to next race the prompt will pop up and ask if you want to save it then.

That way you at least get a chance to watch it first. And if you remember to save it after watching/finishing the race, the prompt will simply not appear.

In single player mode, I tend to agree. Depending on my mood. If I'm on a roll, I tend to kick off the next race while I still have the momentum.

However, in online multiplayer mode, I can't really expect the group to wait while I replay and take photos!
