GT7 What cars did or you plan on using for this weekly challenge?

All I have to say is that the Corvette is literally a lap pony. Once the battery dies it's no longer competitive in the class that it is set up for. Making it useless. So much potential wasted.

OTHER My nephew reminded me what it was like to play Gran Turismo for the first time

Post image
25 Upvotes

He loved doing donuts in his blue MR2! It reminded me of what it was like to play GT3 for the first time way back in the early ‘00. I felt a familiar sense of wonder and amazement watching him pick his car and put around on Chaminox and Fuji Speedway. Those feeling get lost over time, and after years of playing and re-playing these games.

That’s the magic of GT, I think. Glad I got to feel it again.

GT7 JGTC Jomo GTR GR3

I recreated the 1995 JGTC Jomo livery from the R33, more obscure than the usual ones.

Forgot how good this car is, it's a strange one as it doesn't "feel" fast but it is really up near the top of the GR3s I'd say.

Link to follow.

GT7 PS VR2 I scored one for $80

However it came without a left controller so I wanted to know will I still be able to use the headset in GT7 without the controllers because I have the steering wheel but I wasn’t sure if I needed both controllers for the initial setup 🤷🏾‍♂️

GT Discussion Pick your GOAT car

15 Upvotes

If you had to score the best lap on every track in the game by using a single car which one would it be ?

1- You can mention several cars but the GOAT you pick has to be a *real* car
2- So vision/concept nonsense & engine swap is a no-no
3- Unlimited PP , modification , tires , fuel , etc

Sport Mode Looking for some feedback for faster lap times

50 Upvotes

I've been a long time Gran Turismo player but never really delved into higher level of play especially in Sport mode. I'm looking to change that and hopefully raise my DR alongside that. I have achieved Gold in all license tests, but I seem to lose these lessons when it comes to races themselves. Here is my gameplay for this week's Daily Race A qualifying time. Hoping for some feedback on what I am doing wrong (or right), what I should be improving on, and possible practice routines. Thanks

Settings/Tuning Tokyo Expressway 600

I’m not sure if I’ve seen anyone talk about the Suzuki Cappuccino for the Tokyo Expressway 600 race, so I thought I’d share my setup. This has been my go to for a while, and I’m yet to find anything even close to this quick while being fairly even to drive. Has a rotary swap and wide body, and can run consistent 1:55-1:56 laps. You’re leading into turn 1 with it and can easily do the race in under 24 minutes without wall riding.

I bought the new cars from the update today and noticed the Corvette CX Concept is not listed as a VGT and is not eligible for the VGT Tournament. Is this Intentional or is it a miatake on PD's end? Has anyone else even noticed something like this?

Fun races, and I definitely needed the credits, heh.

Note to self, work on tweaking the Kangoo, as it gets a bit 'wobbly' in some turns....
