Hi everyone. Just wanted to say a big thanks to you all for racking up over 4,000 views on my latest video so far. While that might not be amazing for big channels, it's certainly more than I usually get on new releases. Thanks again!

I like how there's 40 Castrol liveries just because they were actually allowed to say Castrol on them.

These cars were so obscure, that i cannot imagine the amount of time and research that you had to invest in order to make this video

Many of the infos are new to me, despite me being a near-lifelong GT fan. I think a sequel featuring GT2 racing mods should be next, and I have a story to share about one of the cars featured in the game.

Excellent job, everyone! Aside from the cars I was already fond of (like the Silvia) I was happy to learn about the Works DB7 and the Katayama RX7. This really helps me appreciate GT1 more as a sort of indirect time capsule for mid-90s race cars.

Thank you for this video, I really appreciate the time and effort you put into researching some of my favourite cars. I've recently had to do a lot of research on the NISMO R33 GT-R LM for a mod I'm making for Assetto Corsa. Glad to see I'm not the only one that's had to spend days of research to create something based on the original Gran Turismo. Keep up the good work!

Great video mate! Just a small correction, the Gibson Motorsport R32 GTR was raced in Australia in the ATCC, not Japan

Growing up with the channel since 2013, yet it never fails to impress with tons of information. Keep up the amazing work mate!

this reminds me of my childhood, was so impressed back then... always love gt1 and gt2

Found difficulty to soak up all of this information, but I gotta say, this is a nice video. You have an amazing eye for details, pal

The long waits for your videos are always worth it in the end. I didn't know about 80% of these cars in the first place. I never thought in a million years that the Chevy Corvette C4 livery was real. Great video as always!

Interesting video! And thank's for all other video uploads too! Huge fan of Gran Turismo series!

It's weird, but looking through this car list makes me miss the times when a lot of race cars still utilized the "arch" wing design instead of the GT wing design that's common place nowadays. I don't know, there's just something to it that's visually appealing to me more.

Awesome vid 👍You should do another racing modification on GT2

The Advan JTCC Civic driver is actually the Drift King, who also drove along his mentor Kunimitsu Takahashi, and younger driver Akira Iida with all three of them driving in the GT2 Kunimitsu NSX.

Ah I wish we could have proper racing modifications back to GT, these are so cool. Also, thanks for this awesome video, I always wanted to know the origins of these liveries

Very cool and interesting! As a bit of pedantry, JGTC didn't re-brand as Super GT until 2005, so strictly speaking all the cars in here from that championship are JGTC cars (starting from 1994). I'm also fairly sure the red Gibson R32 only raced in Australia.

Also fun random fact years ago my dad use to do gardening for a certain BTCC Champion in his Vauxhall Vectra days Mr. James Thompson who my dad (bless him) had no clue who he was but I did I have met him a few times and spoken to nice guy as well. I was about 14/15 years old and he was selling his 125cc go kart my Dad almost got it for me as I was into my karting but the price was a bit too high so we didn't get it unfortunately.

Race mods DO exist in GT sport in the form of GR 4 / Gr 3 variants , almost every single road car in gt sport at launch had a Gr variant minus a select few. As teh game has been updated however, 95% of cars introduced are road going cars with no GR varients in sight and It seems PD is content with the GR 1/2/3/4/b roster as only 1 car has been added to GR 4 and a few to Gr 3 . GR 1 has actually been the class to receive the most amount of new cars but the community is split as 4 of the new additions are group C cars from LE mens that should be their own class .

Interesting

5.5 k good job!!

Will you be doing this for each game?

That first MX5 looks half-inspired by the Gulf colours with the way the stripe wraps around the bumper. Definitely know more about some of the racing mods from GT2 though, like all the works cars from the '98 BTCC season except the S40 being there.

The Gibson GT-R was also the dominator in Australia

I haven't played Gran Turismo that much but its fun and interesting to watch tho

Seem to remember there was a few BTCC liveries from the late 90s, Peugeot 406, Vauxhall Vectra and Renault Laguna definitely did. The Mondeo too maybe

The only one I know you missed was the yellow/orange Toyota Corolla trueno gt apex, that was my first car and first car to put the racing modifications on as a kid 😃

There are a lot of Super Touring inspired modification like Laguna, G20, Mondeo, 406 and others, mainly to represent the most competitive Touring Car Competition of that time, BTCC.

The livery of the Weddsport Chaser reminds me of the Vauxhall/Opel Astra Touring Car and the Vauxhall Calibra Touring Car.

I want all the real versions of these GT1 RM cars in GT Sport now!

Funny that those non licenced cars here in gt1 are licenced in gt2 :D most of them.

What's the font you used in the thumbnail?

Is there any info out there about the blue/yellow racing modification on the Starlet Glanza V in GT1? A finnish rally game from the 90s called Rally Sport had a similar livery on an older RWD starlet, maybe it was based on a real official racing livery, but I haven´t found any pictures of the real ones, if they existed.
