Dear Kaz, the thread title says it all. I would love to see trucks such as the ones racing in the FIA European Truck Racing Championship. Do you think that could be possible? Would there be any limitations on the current physics engine or anything? That is all thank you very much.

PS: Pay no mind to my signature it is just a bad joke :)
 
Those things are so badass. I think this was brought up somewhere else though.

Oops well I did a search in the Kaz Q&A and couldn't find anything related, any way if a Mod sees it hopefully they can merge the threads and likes.

And yes, incredibly badass :) Imagine tackling Eau Rouge on one of these babies!
 
I think it was brought up in another thread relating to either the FIA alliance or "other racing series" or both. Either way it's a suggestion, but this ask Kaz forum seems to be losing its steam recently.

I personally think truck racing should be included so I voted yes.

Cool thank you!
 
I am more than happy to support this! I've been waiting for it since I learned that trucks actually DO race! ;)

And, it's worthy of its own thread. ;)
 
Well it is more of a car game so I think it won't be part of the game personally. Think about those things going around in lobbies! :crazy:
 
European?! AMERICA doesn't have big rig racing yet?! How? We live an a land where THIS

is a sport!

Either way yes, if only for the chance to smash into a Nissan leaf with a FIA endorsed 18-wheeler.
 
Good pull...not sure how that has anything to do with FIA truck racing though

No I mean, we have that, so where is our truck racing? (I don't mean NASCAR)

Ooooh okay I get it. Yeah Camping World Truck Series (or whatever they call it) is hardly truck racing
 
Yessss!! If PD is going to expand in any direction in Motorsport this would probably be at the top of my list. I'd love to see this in GT!

If they can put a Moon Buggy I think they can deal with a truck plus weight restrictions could be used to keep these babies out of normal rooms.

America had Big Rig racing in the 80s, but it found its popularity across the bathtub.
 
Big Rig....drifting! I can see it happening!!!
 
I am all for this question. I'd like to drive semi trucks in this game. It be good to also have road versions of the racing ones. Move over Tank Car & Dodge Ram if these big Semis come into the game.

I rather have more options of mix of vehicles than taking more options away.
 
go kart track vs racing truck! that would be awesome and even more awesome with 16 trucks vs go kart track
 
@harry2000 or 2 class racing on the Nordschleife with trucks and karts. 8 of each
 
But would the truck drivers be able to see the karts.... ;) Would be hilarious to see the karts run around the trucks, though! ;)
 
I just want to see a bunch of go karts swarming a racing truck like a pack of flies around an elephant!It would be the funniest race ever!
 
@TRLWNC7396 Thanks for sharing that. First time I ever see anything like this. Imagine trying to gold that event!
 


For specific racing series and specific content you don't wait the GT series to add them. There's other officially licensed sim/games out there that already have all that.

Furthermore, the GT series is a jack of all trades, master of none. There's better titles for each specific usage than any GT game.

I actually had a truck racing game at one time.

It was pretty awesome for what it was at the time. I'll support this.

I also had this one for a short time.
