Sony and Polyphony Digital have today released a new update (2.03) for Gran Turismo 5.
Included in the new latest update are the following –
- 12 new My Home theme colors and 12 new wallpapers for [GT Mode] have been added to the game.
- Tire wear speed prediction has been added to the pit stop decisions in B-Spec, to prevent tires from wearing out completely during long races.
- Regenerative braking in electric cars have been made stronger to extend driving distance.
- Electric cars will now also creep forward when the brake is released without pressing the accelerator.
- Regarding the Chaparral 2J race car’s performance points, the increased performance factor due to the downforce produced by the fan is now calculated.
- A issue has been corrected where the car would pit in unintentionally during the last lap of a B spec race.
