what is GT5 spec II actually?

From GT Planet-http://www.gtplanet.net/gran-turismo-5-spec-2-0-now-available/

Gran Turismo 5‘s biggest update yet, Spec 2.0, is here! It weighs in at exactly 1192 MB, and is available now at no charge – just load up your game and put your Internet connection to work

Major Changes and New Features

 

- Standard Cars now given simplified cockpit views

The over 800 standard cars included in the game are now given simplified cockpit views. You can change your view using the SELECT button when racing, to change your display to the exciting cockpit view.

*Unlike the cockpit view of premium cars, the simplified cockpit is shown in a dark silhouette, and the gauges used for the car will be standard in-game instruments.

 

- New Opening Movie

A new opening movie is now available from “Gran Turismo TV”. When you download this movie, it will replace the current opening movie. The previous version will be viewable within Gran Turismo TV.

 

- Addition of the weather change menu

On some tracks with weather changes, it is now possible for the user to set time and weather changes from the Quick Menu in both the Arcade Mode, and “Practice” of the GT Mode. Also, you can make more detailed time and weather changes while editing in the course maker and in the online lounge.

 

- Multiple car settings/save feature

We’ve added a setting sheet feature that allows you to save multiple car settings.

From the [setting Sheet] on the lower right of the screen, you can check the current settings. You can switch between 3 settings A, B, and C, allowing you to change between your personal settings easily according to the type of race and your objectives.

 

- Added 11 NASCAR cars

The newest NASCAR 2011 models have been added to the car dealerships. The added cars are the following:

- Avatar now usable in Photo Travel

An Avatar ON/OFF feature has been added to Photo Travel. Now you can photograph your avatar together with your car.

You can turn the driver avatar ON/OFF by pressing the △ button while positioning the car.

 

- Replay Fast Forward/Rewind

All replay videos recorded after the 2.0 update will have [Forward] [Rewind] buttons.

You can now easily search for the scene you are looking for and play back a certain section whenever you want to, adding even more fun to the photo mode.

 

-Improved Online Lounge

[Car Restrictions] has been added in the regulations. You can now limit participants to specific categories such as “NASCAR” and “Super GT”. Also, there are now more cars that can be used in shuffle races, and a new “Shuffle Base” setting allows you to set the performance level of cars allocated to each player.

For details, please see Top screen – [Manual] – [Online Race] – [Event Settings] and the “Regulation Settings”.

 

- Additional features to Remote Racing

A “Graph Display” has been added to the remote race screen in GT My Home of granturismo.com, where you can enjoy B-Spec racing. This allows you to visually see the changes in positions in each lap. A time difference display for each car in the race has also been added.

 

- New Photo Stage Added

The “Indy: NASCAR Pit Stop” stage has been added to photo travel. We invite you to come see and capture the energy of NASCAR’s famous pit stops.

 

- Addition of the Consecutive Login Bonus

When a user logs in consecutively, a bonus will now be applied to experience and race rewards.

It will increase to 110% in the 1st day, 130% in the 2nd day, 150% in the 3rd day, 170% in the 4th, to a maximum of 200% in the 5th day. This will apply to all events both online and offline, so logging in every day will make the game progress faster.

A [Downloadable Content] button has been added to the lower right of the top screen. Here you can install content purchased from the PlayStation®Store, which will be made available on October 18th.

Turn off all the assists (exception: just keep ABS to 1), turn the controller setting to simulation (with the DS3, this would have been unavailable). Start with FFB set to 5. You can gradually increase it later on. Set all deadzones <5% as per preference. And experiment with saturation (if available) to find out what works best for you.
