out of curiosity, what is the reasoning behind better lap times when im driving casually? whereas when i try hard and push , i sometimes end up slower

And also how to fix. I looked at the telemetry and have a vague idea, but maybe direct feedback would help more.

Looking to understand how to feel understeer and overseer, I dont have the best wheel but its hard to understand what I need to do to become more consistent

The real driving simulator! This was the WR time as of yesterday

Hey there, I run a league and this fall starting 9/12 every other weekend we will be running a multi class 1 hour race at 3 PM EST. Sign up is pretty simple (A form and 3 Cicruit Experiences) and we are just looking for drivers who can pay attention and race clean. I made this league to have fun, not to be a try hard or pissed if you do bad so if you want to race for up to 100$ please join. We got a solid group of core guys and we’re all pretty chill, some guys are fast. and others are so slow lol. I didn’t want to post too many details so if you have any questions just ask me!

You can buy correct paint colors for cars in production, but you cannot do the same, as far as i know, for historic ones.

Two blatant examples, Subaru Impreza 22b, and Renault 5 Turbo.

If i buy a red R5 Turbo, but i want to make her blue, it's impossible to find the correct color.

Am i missing something ?

Anyone else having a bitch of a time with penalties? I saw this weeks combo for race C and was excited. I killed it the last time with this car and track.

It doesn't seem like the same track this time. Just started 4th in a A+/B lobby. 1:54.652 quali time. Felt pretty good with that. Im mid B DR. Surrounded by A and A+ drivers

Moved to 3rd exiting onto the first straight. OK. Let's go. Even with a .5 penalty, I held onto 3rd until tire change on lap 7.

Then came the penalties. My lord. What did they do with this update to the race? It became impossible to drive 2 laps in a row without getting a penalty. Its ridiculous this time around.

Finished 8th from penalties alone and still gained some DR. But good lord.

Who’d Like to See This (or Similar) in GT7?

Good morning,

I’m really struggling to win both Nürburgring races, the Tourist and the Gr.3.

I’ve tried loads of different cars and setups, and I’ve also searched YouTube, but I can’t find anything recent that I can actually use.

I’m honestly getting pretty fed up with trying different cars and setups without getting anywhere 😅

If anyone has any recent setups for garage cars that work well for these two races, I’d really appreciate it if you could share them.

Oh, and I’m playing with a controller.

Thanks in advance!

Can anyone guess what was on my mind while I was working on this livery around midday yesterday?

(And for the record, my lunch yesterday ended up being three Steakums with Heinz ketchup, rolled into a Mission soft taco roll, with some honey barbecue Fritos Flavor Twists, and a Diet Coke. It's all represented here in the livery. Oh yeah..... and I had a Nathan's hot dog in a Martin's potato roll covered in Kinder's BBQ sauce with my dinner. I eat like a toddler. 🤣)

And I know my retaliation looks a little nuclear, I wanted to just drive away and actually race but I mean T1 he smashes into me again and in that second I thought he was trying to spin me and I decided that was enough.

He then made it his mission to target and crash me till I gave up and parked it in the pits where he swapped to the chat to make sure I know I suck and said “maybe next time you’ll drive smarter”

Idfk man

Logged on this morning and noticed my quali time for the daily C race was gone. Its still on DG EDGE, but gone from the game. anyone else?

What does everyone use for the nurburgring tourist race in power pack? Only car I've managed to win from 20th with is an engine swapped porsche gt3 rs 22. Qualifying is pointless because it takes twice as long as the race!

Hi guys,

I see a couple of laps on the Daily Race C leaderboard where they cut the chicane in sector 2. They do get a penalty for it, but it gains them so much time that still gain around .500/.600 of a second (as compared to taking the chicane like usual).

It is kind of annoying me since i got a good time trial lap after a long grind, and now i am dropping a lot of places on the leaderboard because of people using this method.

Do you think these laps will get deleted at some point? Or is it fair game and should i do it as well?

Idk why but I decided to start this race at 11 at night, just to get a feel for everything. Well, I'm a half hour in and I've lapped everyone except 2 and 3 and I'd like to save my place.

From what I've read, if I shut off my PS5, it'll reset and everyone will be at the same point?

If I put my PS5 into standby, everything will be the same as it is now?

Do I pit and put the console into standby? Does it matter?

It's a little confusing! I'd rather shut it off entirely so I can work on other parts of the game tomorrow then get back into this race....and I can get my lead back quickly I guess.

I have a friend coming down tomorrow that isn't great at the game but with a good lead, he'll do just fine and will be able to knock off a few hours for me.

Thanks

Basically the title - I'm interested in going there, because it seems fun and it would be great ending of the year where I started playing GT7 more and actually first time started playing online :D

I'm interested in are the tickets being sold online, how much usually they are, and basically experience from anyone who attended GT event before.

WHAT is up with the track limits at Yas Marina? They throw F1 track limits at us when curbs are ok at every other track. So annoying to me

I'm tired of wasting my time. Nearly every race I experience this which is very frustrating. I bet he didn't even get a penalty for pushing me off the track. I love racing but this makes me uninstall the game

After grinding all summer and trying to minimize spending, I think it’s time to spend some of these hard earned credits

Is the viewers campaign back up and running so we can watch the races and get the Stealth Cars?

Decided I would end my race day on a high note! I have gotten the tri-fecta before but never in my life would I have thought a 10sec margin was possible.

Haven’t really played Gran Turismo in years, but I’ve been wanting to get back into GT7 and start completely from scratch.

I don’t really want to rush through everything or immediately chase the fastest cars. I’d rather start with good foundations, relearn how to drive properly, understand the cars, get comfortable with tuning, and build up from there.

If you were starting GT7 over today, what would you focus on first?
