I set up a 9 hour b-spec endurance race before I went out and found that when I came back, the game seems to be having some hiccups or something. It looks like it's running fine, but then it looks like it skips a few frames and the car jumps laterally across whatever part of track it is on. Has anyone ever seen this? I'm hoping that running these races isn't killing my system.

I did the 4 hour roadster enduro today and I think I know exactly what you're talking about. For stretches of time whenever I was in chase cam the game would skip a frame (or 2 or 3 or 4) as I turned. Only happened in chase cam, only happened when I turned, I could easily replicate the problem on a straight by weaving left and right. It didn't happen the entire race, and it was very very obvious when it did. After I finished I did some more races but it was loading slowly so I shut the game down.
It was actually 2 weeks and 2 days, apologies. Still great sales though
Precisely that and other missteps along the way.
Going to be difficult since I don't think I will be seeing a replay option for that race since I remember the 172 lap Suzuka didn't have one. I will see what I can do.
You aren't the only one. I am seeing it too. It looks to only affect the Chase cam and I'd say it's a different one the one available for racing in A-Spec

"The only speed test that is included in the pack, "Special Stage Route Oval X" is between 12km straight on one side alone, boasts a total length 30km"

Holy shit that is a long track.
Batman!!!!
Crap. My Bobs easily took the 9 hour race with around 140 laps over the next car since I gave them a FGT to play with, but since my internet had been crapping out all day, despite having made sure I was signed into PSN once the race finished, I lost my 200% bonus. Stupid Verizon.

So where are the Auto Salon vids?

fucking ridiculous, what's the point of a 30km oval?
the game needs a 30km limit on course maker creations.
This Route X looks boring as fuck too, but at least the Driving Park environment would have served up something interesting to drive on.

This shot gives you the best idea of just how big this track is
You can see this part far in the distance
You can see this part far in the distance
..and point to point stages
..and new rally enviroments such as Tahiti, Alps and Grand Canyon (just to name those with assets that already exist in series heritage)
..and few generic "Race Track" environments with different colors of the curbs
..and new algorithm that will allow to choose steps between "elevated" and "flat" sections in the setup menu > having steep ascends and descends on every damn corner is really annoying
And then we can talk about actual *everyday* usability of the Course Maker
We agree again Vanilla, it has to be Friday 13th
And considering Kaz's love Hybrids and Japanese cars, there's a slight chance we'll see this in the future:
Yes, that is a SuperGT Prius.
I presume it's a SuperGT 300 car?
Of course! The yellow headlights/banner give it away.

55,173.1 miles here, or 88.277 Km.
I also finally golded all the licenses. All that's missing is the X1 event. Not looking forward to that.

I know Kaz has a very strong sense of national pride (or rather Nissan pride) but I really wish he would try to incorporate parts of other country's car cultures. The SEMA and Pebble Beach cars are some of the most interesting in GT5. As much as I like SGT cars, I would rather he add cars that are unique and we have rarely see.
Like:
Classic Racer Pack
Ferrari 32P
Lamborghini Countach Race Car
Ford Mustang Boss 302 Parnelli Jones Car
Beetle Rally Car
Toyota 2000GT Race Car (driven b Carrol Shelby no less)
Max Tune Pack (not exactly tuner cars but cars that are tuned to their max performance)
RUF GT9R
Mercedes GLK Hill Climb Car
Alpha 9 GTR
Hennessey Venom GT
Concept Pack
Ferrari P4/5
NSX before the current redisgn (how cool would it be to drive a car that WILL NEVER be made!)
SAAB AeroX
Renault Espace F1 Concept Van
Not that I have anything against what we have gotten so far... but I find what makes GT different is driving cars you have never heard of before and realizing how amazing they are. Before the GTR, Evo, etc became main stays in the US, people discovered them through Gran Turismo.

The first thing I am doing when I get this DLC is painting my Avendator to look like this:
totally wrong,
Lambos need to be in ridiculous colors BY LAW!
I don't understand...
Some men aren't looking for anything logical, they just want to paint their lambos pink

I remember there were some requests from fans of this game (and the other) for a VW Ehra-Lessien type track, and this is the closest one we'll get at this point
Haters gonna hate. My friends and I already have some ideas on what to do in this track :lol

wow, managed a 853rd in the global ranking on the Spa + Rain time trial. First time being in the top 1000 lol
And I did some really early braking on a couple of turns and lost traction once. Could maybe get it to top 500.

Do you use steering wheel?
Btw, I understand that X1 is bitch to handle with stick but with a wheel it should be a dream.

yeah, using a G27. I'm completely useless with the controller.

At first they said that it would, then removed the "and dlc from early 2012" part. He's gonna have to wait and see.
I believe the US blog clarified it would NOT include the new DLC (speed test/pack 3).
Hi Gaf. Recently i started to think about getting a PS3 (i always did great with Wii-PC combo) but as Gran turismo fan. The XL edition got me thinking that maybe now its the time so if anyone could answer this questions will be great:
1.- The Xl edition includes the supersweet Nissan Leaf?
2.- Should i wait to a PS3 pricedrop or just go with the 160GB one?
3.- Its kind of an error getting a ps3 for this game? (again long time racing fan...)
Thats all gaf.
And those online leagues videos are great

1. No
2. I don't think there's gonna be one for a while.
3. Might be, but there's many other great games to justify your purchase. Might also be useful as a PC<->TV streaming device.
Do yourself a favor and get a force feedback wheel with the game. A Logitech Driving Force GT is probably the cheapest option (at around $100). GT5 is still fun with a controller, but a wheel just takes the game to another level. Its essentially the price of 2 more games.
Well im certain it its the best way to play it.. but you know it is going to be an investment on its own. Im looking at the PS3 Driving Force GT Racing Wheel 130$ i think is the official one. But i suppose its awesome given by the look

2. It's unrealistic to expect another price drop until August, so there's really no reason to wait. Besides, when they drop the price, it's going to be $50.
3. That really depends on how much gametime you'll get with GT5 and how much you value that time. Even if just GT5 doesn't validate your purchase there are loads of other great games that easily should and those aren't just racing games.
Wow, Bobs can be utter morons when it comes to self-managing pit stops in the rain. Despite there still being a good amount of rain on the track and reliably spinning out of control on any turn while on Racing Hard, every time they pass the starting line again they want to pit and change out of the Intermediates I had to manually pit them to get. I have to cancel their pit every lap.

They also pit if their energy is low, and you can set what tires they change to in the Pit Strategy menu

It was clockwise in the NSX trailer too. The opposite straight has a huge bridge on it, just in case you need a downhill section for more speed.
