Is it just me or were they coming out of the corkscrew at Laguna Seca at about 1:55 in that second video?

OK good, so I'm not the only one who thought that???

Would've been nice to see (and hear) the filming of that video!

Yes, they were filming at some place in California during the mid part of the video, in the beginning there were some clips shot at Laguna Seca and at 1:51 they were coming out of the CorkScrew.
 
The new WX8 concept is much better, this

I really like the looks of the blue one... I think the headlights are much better suited for it than the set that's on the black one. Nice! 👍
 
well actually,i like the black one.
FYI(spoiler alert !):megatech is an indonesian company(my country)owned by the son of our former president,soeharto,in middle 1998,theres a riot for make soeharto off from president title,after that,economic crisis makes many company closed down,and (maybe) make megatech went bankrupt,and closed down.
 
Okay, ded thred=ded, but

Just realized the W8 only has three gears stock, but such an amazing power curve (flat from 5000-redline at 7125) that it's just fine. At 1000m, STILL. IN. SECOND. GEAR.!!!

:lol:



I have a one at the moment on my save, and I have it set up so when you hard launch it just spins the tires. Keeps it in the power curve and it accelerates far faster. I can't bring myself to swap out the transmission on it.
 
Yes, I concur. It'd be great to see Vectors make their return to the GT franchise, and video games in general. Every time I fire up GT2 I make sure to drive at least one Vector in order to 'get my fix'! :sly:
 
Sad story really.

The W8 is an 80's car! From 1989-93 17 models were produced for customers. One appeared in Rising Sun.

The M12 was the product of Megatech (that sounds familiar...) after a hostile takeover, and 14 were produced, and one prototype was modified for racing, but had mechanical issues.

And that's it.

And by the way, Jerry's Wiegert's hiring (he goes by Jerry), just email jw@aquajet.com.
Yeah, Megatech sounds REAL familiar to me, as it was owned by an Indonesian. Recently, Vector's silently resurrecting as they're currently developing a new hypercar with either a 7L V8 quad-turbo/twin-blower (with either 1400 or 1300hp) or a 10L V8 quad-turbo/twin-blower (with 2000hp or 1800hp).
