It's been a pretty big week for GTA Online, which recently saw another content update that brought with it a ton of new racing content. Beyond that, we've got some interesting community bits, a new sales milestone, and something for only the biggest Los Santos fans to give a try.
The Dominator ASP Makes A Big Splash
Carrying on from the Los Santos Tuners update comes a brand new vehicle – the Dominator ASP. This new muscle car can be found at San Andreas Super Autos and is quickly being called one of the best muscle cars in the whole of GTA Online thanks to its high acceleration and top speed. Sports cars beware, there's a new fan-favourite on the tracks.

GTA Online Players Are Walking In Circles To Grind XP
Another week, another weird GTA Online occurrence. Following the recent content drop, many players were reporting seeing online players walking around in circles. Although this initially seemed like a typical Rockstar Games glitch, this time around there's actually a fair bit of reasoning to it.
As it turns out, players were going AFK and leaving their players to run around in circles to grind experience points. Walking around the recently introduced Car Meet social space will earn you experience so, of course, some players took that as a chance to scare the heck out of surrounding players.
Players Are Recreating Mario Kart Races
Mario Kart and GTA have been being compared to one another as far back as early Robot Chicken, but it's a team-up that just keeps on getting better. Some GTA Online players are even recreating Mario Kart, thanks to the new Car Meet feature. A video posted on the GTA Online subreddit shows a ton of players racing around an empty car park in go-karts reminiscent of Mario Kart. One of them even dressed up like Mario, so it's only a matter of time until we get an updated version with everyone dressed like Nintendo characters.
GTA 5 GeoGuesser Launches For The Los Santos Knowledgeable
GeoGuesser is a fun little game that places you in a random part of the world, where you're left to figure out where exactly you are. Of course, an idea like that lends itself incredibly well to gaming maps, which means that there's now a GeoGuesser for GTA 5. Rather than being dropped into a random real-world location, the GTA 5 GeoGuesser puts you in a random spot in Los Santos. It's up to you to then figure out where exactly in the game map you are. Hope you know the difference between Blaine County and Vespucci Beach.
GTA 5 Hits More Than 150 Million Copies Sold
Less of a specific GTA Online piece of news here, but it'll doubtlessly affect the future of GTA Online as a whole. Take-Two Interactive announced that GTA 5 has now hit more than 150 million copies sold, which is five million more than the previous sales figure that was released only three months ago. For a game that's been out for three console generations, it's still showing no signs of slowing down.
