For the second consecutive round of the Gran Turismo World Series, the popular “Stealth Model” car giveaway has proven too popular for its own good. Entries for the Viewers Gift Campaign broke down as the Round 2 broadcast from Tokyo got underway on Saturday, and this time Polyphony Digital has suspended the campaign entirely while it investigates. The campaign offers two more of the limited-edition Stealth Model cars we detailed last month: a Toyota FT-1 Vision Gran Turismo (Gr.3) for watching the Manufacturers Cup stream in-game, and a Mazda 787B ’91 for the Nations Cup. Neither car will ever be sold in GT7, so demand was always going to be high. What Happened As soon as the Manufacturers Cup broadcast began at 13:00 UTC, players attempting to register through the Viewers Campaign banner on the GT7 World Map started hitting errors, with entries failing to submit. The same thing happened during the Milan round in May, when the first Stealth Model campaign knocked parts of the Gran Turismo website offline mid-broadcast and left viewers staring at error screens. Things still didn’t go smoothly, but Polyphony is working to get ahead of the confusion this time. Where the Milan failure played out with little official word until after the fact, the company has now published a news update acknowledging the problem and pausing the campaign: “Following the start of the ‘Gran Turismo World Series Round 2 – Tokyo’ Manufacturers Cup live broadcast, an issue occurred that prevented some users from submitting their entries for the ‘Viewers Gift Campaign’ displayed at the top right of the World Map screen in Gran Turismo 7. We have temporarily suspended entries for the campaign while we investigate the issue and work towards a resolution. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.” Don’t Panic To
