2:13.1xx in the GT-R. It's comfy, but slow. Might just give it a go anyway.
This gym I go to has a really nice pool. Jusy got out of it not long ago, and I feel much better.I love that kind of weather, ps4 won't turn on because I'm outside cycling or swimming. I was just doing that this afternoon while it was 68 with 35 kph winds. The pool was 74, got slightly sun burned warming up after with a good book. It needs to get warmer here, too cold in the shade.
The ps4 seems to hate to pre-race lobby. It's a good indication that the race has loaded and is about to start. Then it winds down its dual turbine engines when auto-drive is about to kick in. It's how I know when to get up and start racing![]()
And with that I'm done for the night. Don't actually feel like doing Race B anymore this week which sucks because I was looking forward to it. Those Meganes are unbeatable. Plain and simple. 4th is nothing to complain about but if there's zero chance to get a victory in every lobby I go into, not gonna bother.

The two of them were battling it out so we sort of kept up, especially at the last corner where everyone slowed way up and I actually tapped the back of the McLaren and luckily didn't get a penalty. If it's just me and the Megane's, I can draft all I want, I just watch them drive away.Only half a second off with the McLaren and fastest lap goes to a Scirroco
Meta car, maybe. But far from unbeatable IMO.
2 more cars cleared tonight, the Cayman and the SLS AMG. It was a mess on the track. My clean streak was reset in the first attempt when I got dive bombed in the chase, got knock off and got SR Down for getting hit. This is what I get to work with in the back lol.

The Cayman can go much faster. My best lap in it was 2:15.154, fastest yet, when I got punted off early and had a whole lap to catch up before getting stuck behind traffic again. The Cayman is very sluggish though, no good at quick avoidance, it feels like driving a train. Very planted but difficult to avoid dive bombs or other mess. It took 4 attempts to get a clean race bonus with it.
The SLS AMG is a bit more nimble, still not that great. I did 2 races in it but never had any room to push the car. At least it's much better at avoiding messes, or just cruising and going from 11th to 6th in 30 seconds.
The hardest part between switching cars is the different gearing. The Cayman needs to go down to 2 in a lot of corners while the SLS AMG bounces of the limiter in 2nd in those same corners. Very different.
Log in with your PSN here: https://www.gran-turismo.comYour vehicle looks totally different to the lemonade one preceding, and while the lemonade one is great, your's looks pretty incredible!
But how do I steal a logo, and where would they reside on a PS4? If I made a logo myself, how would I import it onto the PS4? The logo section on the editor looked like a "closed shop" to me. And I was surprised by the lack of logos in the editor's logo area. I did not see a way to import new ones, and from where and how etc etc.
A help site would assist I guess.
05Xr8 - Spacedustdaddy - has a trick I think - he re-starts his account somehow. I think it helps not get to race the very top guys???It doesn't help that I've hit rank A now so I am being put in lobbies with guys that are qualifying in the top 10 times. I mean I think I'm good but I am no alien and I would rather not race against those guys.![]()
Unfortunately, it keeps me at whatever rank when I deleted the old game( I even uninstalled the game and re installed without using saved data and it still kept my S/S ranking). Starting a new game deletes Car Garage, ME gear, ME points, photos, replays, Circuit Experience and all achievements. Liveries remain, I can apply them, but I can not edit them. User decals remain as well. Daily Workout Gift will be from whatever car I received, before I deleted saves or before I Update the game. Same applies to CE award cars. Naturally, if you purchased cars with real money, they are still accessible.05Xr8 - Spacedustdaddy - has a trick I think - he re-starts his account somehow.

I have my daughter's account as an alt account. Don't use it much.You just create another account, so go new user and follow the instructions, you can have multiple accounts on the same PSN subscription, if you want to play in another region you'll need a new email address.

Is the megane gr.4 glitched or something?! I don't understand. Why does a 350hp FF car have the best acceleration, highest top speed (which only drops off at the end) and the ability for very late braking?

Down to 2.17.937 at Bathurst... In the FF megane... But you're nuts if you think I'm racing with that much understeer. Thing must be an absolute rocket for me to take almost 2 seconds off my previous lap, considering how sloppy I was from Skyline onwards.
interested to hear people's methods for the downhill; i'm braking in the shadow on the left, down into 3rd for the first two bends, then trail braking through the next 2, then on the power all the way to the hairpin. Feel like the first part could be faster as I'm not on the power much, mostly coasting and light braking.

I haven't found a way to start a new game, as someone that just bought the game. Any tips on that would be appreciated.

But but... I like the TCR Megane and Alfa. That's why I made it with an Alfa livery. *sniff sniff*The problem with Megane _IN A RACE_ is that it rewards relatively slow, sloppy driving with considerably low risk; whilst your opponent (in any other car than the Megane) has to be at a peak of his performance to somehow break the slipstream from Megane. 1 sec Δ coming on to a long straight isn't even enough against the Megane, it will catch up inevitably.
On the flipside: when a Megane is on pole, you will not catch it on straights. You will be glued to its rear on the mountain section without the possibility of overtaking and then it just pulls away on conrod and blocks the inside twice, again pulling ahead due to supreme acceleration.
It's 100% a crutch. By picking it you're basically saying: - OK i'm bad but I want to win, bypassing the need to improve.
I've been starting new games since GT1. Once I feel I've done everything in the game, it's just the same thing over and over. I just restart out of boredom and to get that fresh game feeling again.So what are the benefits of starting a new game?
