    Are the static reflections in the windscreen, which look really bad in VR finally gone? I really hope they are, or at least give us a chance to turn them off.

    Edit: After looking more closely at the picture of the Corvette C8, you can see a lot of red reflection in the windscreen. Since you're talking about graphic updates "with minimal to no impact on performance," I don't believe those are real-time rendered reflections and still static textures on top of the windscreen :(. But we will see.

    This IMSA partnership is really cool and I'm excited to see what's coming. I'm a bit sad that we haven't heard a word about the MP. Probably the biggest construction site of AMS2 at the moment. I confess that I haven't driven a meter online in AMS2 since the release of LMU. I really wish that AMS2 would take a look at the online part of LMU and also offer such official races. Then the rating in the game might make sense again.

    Don't forget when people were speculating about the red hot latin news people thought it was the 499P - before we found out LMU has exclusive rights to it.

    I want a Prancing Horse as much as the next guy, I just wouldn't hold my breath for it. :)

    Watched Sebring race (for the first time). Great track but there are almost no spectators? No grand stands nearby the track??

    Sorry guys, my excitment is not about content, it's about this:
    A well/better implemented loss of grip, dependent on surface tyre temperature, slip angle, etc., will make all cars look like new content, effectively making them further apart in term of handling. I'm looking forward this implementation.

    Then, I would like Sebring :D

    Wel done Reiza for getting IMSA on board!:hurrayreiza::hurrayreiza::hurrayreiza:

    This doesn't come as a surprise though. The new GT3s and the LMDhs were already based on IMSA liveries (as well as some WEC liveries like the #02 Chip Ganassi Cadillac) with GTD and GTP stickers on the cars respectively. However, this is great news for the sim and in my opinion well deserved for all the hard work you guys are doing. :):)

    This raises the most important question of all - does this mean we might get a fully authentic Rexy livery? The Rexish one we have is nice, but it's not quite Rexy ;)

    REXY HUNGRY! REXY EAT CORVETTE! OM NOM NOM.

    It's nice that Reiza is working on bringing IMSA content into the game, if they manage to get the missing tracks from the WEC championship as well (Losail, COTA, Fuji, Bahrain, Portimão) then there would be no reason for me to buy LMU. :)

    The official WEC partnership with LMU?? And the fact that the 499P is tied to WEC??

    Sure it may not mean exclusivity per se, but it sure makes it a hell of a lot harder for others to license.

    WEC own the license for the series and Ferrari own the license for the car

    I'm with you on this. It definitely sounds promising (this hysteris), let's big the impact will be.I'm also eager to toi get the other tire improvements Renato mentioned as each one sounds as something that prevents or punishes "overdriving" that you can still get away with (and benefit from) with many cars.

    Sebring is great (not for everybody, but I have really grown to like it), but I think I like Road Atlanta even more as I'm a fan of rollercoaster style tracks.

    I'm sorry but that's simply not true. If that was the case, other developers wouldn't be able to license f1 cars.

    499p is freely licenseable to ANYONE with deep pockets.
