    • Three-on-three team challenges included
    • Create events based on different parameters: car type, track, time of day, weather, etc.
    • Can make lengthy multi-stage events that take place over a number of days
    • Participants can span in the thousands with hundreds of different teams
    • Win smaller accolades to add team’s XP
    • These include clocking the fastest lap, drifting 1,000 meters, going 0 to 60 the fastest

    • Start off with slightly less glamorous cars
    • Race and increase fame/funds to gain access to better cars
    • More people will watch you race as well

    Sounds like an arcade launch type title. Going to be interesting to see the PS4 and drive club vs PS3 and GT6.

        I thought this when I first saw the reveal, but after reading this I honestly don't think this game is going to sell that well.

                Polygons? Where? Those screenshots are gorgeous. Blurred line between videogames and reality? I say they're going to be obliterated next gen.
