So whats the verdict on this game, Im on the fence. I know Ill play for a week or 2 and not touch it again but I still may get it Is it still a bitch to get the license?

No it seems quite a bit easier to get the licenses. Some are tough to gold, but it's fairly easy to bronze stuff.

So as of right now there are no endurance races. Hoping they get added in the update with B Spec.

With how B Spec will be integrated this time around, I have to think they will patch in enduros (they fucking better lol). I need me some endurance races.

Already a money glitch to get you 20 mil. It works.

If you think about doing this a second time, instead of doing 1 car for the 20M credits again, buy 7(or 8 if you want to keep one of the cars I mention) of the Mercedes. When you delete your game file, and go to sell the car, sell one, buy the last Ferrari on the top of the 2nd page that is $20M, sell another Mercedes, buy the ferrari again, and do so until you have 1 mercedes left to sell. Sell it for the $20M and enable your connection and install the update, then sell the Ferrari's you just bought for $6M each and you will cap out at 50M which is the max.

I think I've given up on trying to do the NASCAR series in IA. These AI drivers here do every fucking thing they can to wreck you. I don't know how many times I've attempted Daytona, and every single time someone wrecks me.

I haven't had a lot of success at Daytona, ended every time in a wreck but I did figure out what I need to do, you have to absolutely hug the bottom of the track coming out of corners until you get a decent distance down the straight and move up into the line and block. I led all but 1 lap my last attempt at it by getting out front and hugging the bottom but slipped just a bit up and one of the cars came out of the corner and moved down into the rear of my car and turned me around. I do really enjoy the pack element of Daytona but I dislike the fact that the car out front gains no draft speed and the AI cars can get hit and never even start to lose it

Kazunori Yamauchi has revealed that a new and very long track will be coming in Gran Turismo 6.
Yamauchi attended the Taipei Game Show and announced that a new track will be in Gran Turismo 6. It will be set in the coastal area and will feature the sea and nearby mountains.
The track has now name yet, but its overall distance is 27 km. This will make it the longest track ever seen in the Gran Turismo series. It edges out the Nurburgring circuit which is 26 km.

Just playing this again and it amazes me how many tracks there are in GT6 compared to Forza.

Yeah I threw it in a few days ago and did some touring car races in IA. I'm dying for Monza and Brands Hatch to show up in Forza, although both will be in pCARS. Apricot Hill has to be my favorite fictional track of all time. So good. And, of course, night racing <3.
