GT5 to get in-race game saves

Kazunori Yamauchi from Polyphony digital confirmed via Twitter earlier today that “game saves during endurance races” are currently “under development” for Gran Turismo 5. The full tweet translates roughly as:

“I’m sorry. Game saves during endurances. They are currently under development. RT @andrepeniche: as I simply don’t have 4, 9 or even 24 hours available to stay in front of the TV to do endurance races, as much as I love GT5, unfortunately it’s not possible for me to complete them.”

It’s great to see the dev responding to fan feedback, and I’m sure that mid-race saves would improve GT5’s endurance races to no end.

Thanks to GTplanet for the info.
