ETA on release for 1.20?

[SkullcrusherMountain]

So it's been 2 months now since 1.15 was released, and we've seen a trickling of news on the contents of 1.20. I'm pretty much chomping at the bit to get my hands on the Formula Extremes and the 80's stock cars. The original post said a series of updates would be happening over the "next 2-3 months" so I was just curious A) if there's an updated "target" release date for 1.20 (even if it's a window, some information is better than no information) and B) if all the content in the March 27 post was going to be in the next update, or if it's just the FE & FVee's.

@Reiza Studios - it'd be great if you could give us some more info soon!!

Further updates from Reiza Studio's FB page:

"GSC Sync locked for final betatesting round. Please hold, we´ll let you know when it´s open again"

Look's like it's going to be today!

No... NO. NO WAY. NO FRICKING.......... Omg, I am constantly refreshing the sync...

From Reiza's Facebook page:
As a last but certainly not least adittion to the v1.20 mega update, the star series in the sim in their current formation: Stock Car V8 2014 season, complete with new specs, new rules, and a bunch of new colors and names! This weekend Stock V8 is at Cascavel for the 6th round of the season. Good time for a release perhaps?

The 5 photo's they added with this post sure do look nice!!
Especially these two

Already negotiated with the wife about game time when the release comes out

Is it safe to say it will launch in the next 12 hours?

Can we have a practice server or something when it comes out so we can all hop in and revere in Reiza's all encompassing awesomeness?

I'll have to test it first, but I don't see why not once everything is working and updated on the servers too.

Just a warning folks, version 1.2 may give you the same feeling as one of these

My GSC is crashing, is that because the sync is locked? I haven't changed any files, but all the sudden it wont load!

I hope we get all that is promised by Reiza not just a new skin pack, but have to say those pics look amazing

If we dont get the Formula Vee... I will be distraught. xD

Does the sync need to be live to launch GSC? My GSC keeps crashing before it starts and I haven't changed anything! Is it because the Sync is down?

game works normal for me, seems to a be a problem on your end

Me gusta...

Some great improvements there, and more than anything I'm really pleased if the RaceQualRatio will be fixed - it is a massive thing for offline play

 

[Christian Casey]

AI updates look good, hopefully pace increases vs Taruma and the like.
Optimised shadows are a plus, but really the whole patch note looks awesome.

I hope they've added qwerty keyboard support. I don't really care much about the new content...

What's wrong with them?
