Nice! :) I hope they add this car to GT5 at some point in the future. Looks like a fun drive.

Traction issues?

Sound good for a V8

And the GT-One as a premium.

This car has Audi crying about the rules not being 'fair'. Yet they seem to have conveniently forgotten how unbalanced the diesel rules have been since introduction...

I hope Toyota sticks in it until they win. Old GT1 was awesome-looking, fast, but the trans never held, then the rules changed to put coupes at a disadvantage.

I want to see them with a 24h du Mans victory.

Not really, just a lack of traction in slow corners due to reduced downforce. It's perfectly normal.
