Hi all! I remember the early 450pp days. A nice change from the Japanese 450pp CS rooms I would run that didn't have a power or weight restriction. Background: Been a GT player since GT2 and a wheel user since GT4, with Logitech Driving Force from 2001I'm a bit of the initiator of the CurryVWurst Lobby
About the history of the lobby:
It all started with a small group that wanted to drive cleanly and with respect.
We started with 450 pp and 140kw 990 kg. The rules were always agreed in the community to get as many cars as possible into the lobby.
It continued through many updates and vehicle adjustments, the conditions of the lobbies had to be adjusted again and again.
480pp; 140kw/520pp 150kw/540pp; 180KW/ 560KW; 200kw/570pp; 200KW
We tried to get a large number of vehicles into the lobbies to have a change.
The history of the name:
CurryVWurst Lobby : because I am an employee of a large automotive company and there is a separate hall with sausage production in addition to cars. And the currywurst ketchup is made according to a secret recipe.
The VW currywurst is available every day in our company restaurants. It even has its own part number.
In 2023, over 8 million curry sausages were sold.
You can also find currywurst stickers in GT7.
Thanks again to all visitors of the CurryVWurst Lobby, without you none of this would be possible.
If you copy and host the lobby, you should always make sure that it is driven fairly and with respect.
The muscles are the most wobbly cars ever driven 😂We had our special event on Saturday and Sunday at the weekend. Was well attended.
There was some discussion as to whether the Chervolet's also belong to the musclecars. But they let her ride along.
It's not always easy to tune a set of rules well.
Hope everyone had fun and I would like to thank all participants.
A next special event could only be TCR cars (still in tuning).
And of course there will be another event for the birthday of the VW Sambabus (available for purchase right now)
I did a couple of quick builds for this on Saturday morning, but when I entered the lobby the power limit was much higher than 200kw. I couldn't keep up, even after trying to adjust my setups to try and compete.At the weekend the wish arose that we do a special event. American muscle cars are needed. The conditions are as follows:
at least 1250 KG (2755 pounds), 200kw (271hp), 570 PP
Year of construction 1958-1979
The events will take place on 21 June. and June 22 in the CurryVWurst lobbies
The Shelby Cobra ́66 is also possible, TransAM; Mustang Mach1 ....
I also found 570pp with 341bhp and 1250kg bopI did a couple of quick builds for this on Saturday morning, but when I entered the lobby the power limit was much higher than 200kw. I couldn't keep up, even after trying to adjust my setups to try and compete.
Was it possible to get anywhere near the both the weight and power limits under 570PP, or was it a compromise situation?
