Agree with you re wishing they would spend some time just to take a step back and try to sort out the bugs etc.

If there was a free-play mode then I think they'd have plenty of scope for making a release a consolidation/bug-fix release. Do them at the same time and I think long term players would be more than happy to "stick around" for the extra 6 weeks before we got new content. Give us a chance to really play with all the cars in the garage.

Agree re the lack of differentiation between the NASCAR cars (although the tail of the Petty Ford does feel "looser" than the other cars), nor the different 911 RSRs. But I do feel that with the aero-braking that the 2015 LMPs offer a significantly different driving experience to the 2014 LMPs. I've probably been interiorising a lot of frustration when it comes to this game :P

Ok, I can concede that the driving experience in the 2015 LMP1s is slightly different to the 2014s. The GT-R LM, even if it disappointed in real life, is like an OP 2014 TS040, with similar handling to the 919 when going at the same speeds, just with plenty more speed in reserve! However, the special event was underwhelming, not helped by the fact it had to be run 3 times, whereas RTLM, at the time, was fresh. Endurance Champions - with the exception of Rolling Starts - is not exactly ground-breaking.

What will we see this time? Endurance Leaders? With random events leading up to an 11-lapper at Le Mans? Ooooooh :P

Yer, the RPM Fusion, while similar in a straight line, does make a bit of a fuss under acceleration while turning, maybe it's intentional as it's supposed to be a "throwback". Not sure what the mechanical explanation would be, though.
