I really like this quote: "I’d also like to point out a personal opinion.
I think simracers have been going way too far with controlling every single aspect of their tyres. I see videos with tons of apps that show in real time surface temps, real time wear, real time blistering/graining… everything. We are all craving for the best possible simulation and then we use all of that stuff… we are borderline cheating to be honest. So I’d like to return to a more realistic situation where you get the info real teams get and that’s it.
You want to see how much your tyres are worn with precision? Go back to the pits and read the depth. You can’t have it in real time while driving.
You want surface temp? Sorry no luck. Core temp and pressure, maybe yes. Again go to pits and check. Same for blistering graining and so on… "I always hated the fact that you could see an accurate percentage of tyre wear, so I hope they can block those kinds of apps for everyone. They seem fair for the stages  . |

Will this game only ever be GT3s and will it be moddable?
I'll probably skip this one if it's just GT3s

For now, yes. But it could be posible that in the future Kunos decides to add other SRO series (promoter of the Blancpain GT Series) such as GT4 or even more to the game. Modding won't be actively supported by Kunos like it's the case with AC (so no modding tools etc). But the Unreal4 engine is moddable, so I'm pretty sure it's just a matter of time until some of the smart modders figure out how to do it. |

So far it sounds amazing. Seems like the game has far less content, but a lot more stuff under the bonnet/hood, which I prefer, as there is so much content not used in AC, so I'd rather have more quality.

First impression: It's awesome. Despite only one car and one track yet, there are so many new things to discover. Manual engine start, wipers, indicators, night, rain etc  |
