북미에서 진행되는 GT아카데미에서, 숏컷페널티 미적용으로 인한, 규정 개선이 있었네요.
특정 코너의 숏컷패널티가 적용되지 않는 부분으로 인해서, 트랙과 차량을 바꾼듯 합니다.
야마우치는 시스템을 더 보완하여야 할것이고, 이벤트 개최전에는 이런부분을 사전에 꼼꼼히 잘 체크해야 겠습니다.

It’s been a rough week for GT Academy USA. After corner-cutting at the Indy Road Course prompted SCEA to replace the track, most assumed the debacle was behind us. However, a few noted that on the new course, “Eifel 102A”, the grass could still be used as a runoff area without in-game penalty. This wasn’t particularly alarming to most participants, as many of top drivers used the grass to run wide at a notorious corner on Cape Ring in Round 1 (and nothing was done about that).

SCEA, however, is apparently being much more vigilant in this round, having just cleared the leader boards and replaced not one, but both tracks – check out the official announcement here.

The new Round 2 car/track combinations are the GT-R V-Spec II Nür (R34) on Madrid Reverse and the XANAVI NISMO GT-R at Rome Reverse. The round will still end at midnight, this Sunday, February 6th. Presumably, they’ve now chosen city tracks to reduce the chance of run-offs and corner cutting as much as possible.

Check out the GT Academy forum for more reactions. Thanks to Rachael for the early tip!

GT Academy Course Re-change Notice
Last Updated : Feb 04, 2011Share   On February 2nd we had changed the GT Academy Round 2-1 course to the Eifel, due to corners being cut by some players on the original Indianapolis Motor Speedway Road Course. However we have found that it is also possible to achieve faster lap times on the new track by cutting corners and driving the car against the walls.

Though it is unfortunate to have to do this for the second time, to make it FAIR for all participants we have again chosen different tracks for the competition. The rankings for Round 2 and the Total Rankings have been reset again following this change. The end date of the competition will remain the same (Feb 6).

We truly apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused all of you who are participating in Round 2. We hope you continue to enjoy GT Academy.
