Gran Turismo 7 Custom Race thread

Had a super enjoyable gr4 25laps at brands hatch earlier, finished just behind 1st. All pitted mid race apart from a few at the back who did a last lap pit stop...anyways, my question is after trying the same race in gr3, sophy cars seemed to be way faster than me?.

So silly. I forgot about the SOPHY car glitch when a car is no longer in my save race. Used the FTO and two other FTOs are on the grid. If SOPHY can “drive” all those cars not yet assignable, how can the programming use them?

Ran a race at RBR for my GR North America Cup series. 20 GRMN's, 30 minutes,Reggie, with tire and fuel. I haven't ran a Reggie in awhile specially a longer race but I wanted the surprise weather. Rain came at around the 3rd, I did the undercut and went in on 4. They went in on 5. Then rain was gone by the 6th and drying fast so I undercut again and went in for RH. They stayed out on IM's for awhile then all went in on I forgot what lap. I was cruising in 1st but noticed they all switched to RS's. I think someone has mentioned this before? I panicked and went in for another change because I figured they'd catch up with those tires. I didn't have RS so I went with RM's. Messed me up because I forgot to fuel so I had to go in again a couple of laps later. Lost that race. lol Still fun though!

The answer is exactly what you think. The training story is BS (at least in part). Many of the cars unofficially support Sophy.

F3500 B is the same car as the F3500 A, so why is it that Sophy doesn't officially support the B? You can use the glitch and the F3500B works great. There's likely some type of config file that each car has, and sure some of them could be copied to other cars. For all the new cars (post launch) there is no excuse. They should all support Sophy. Same with all tracks.

This is where I believe the PS4 support is hurting the PS5 version. Four years ago, cross platform support was cool. Now, not so much.

I feel from what we see in PSVR2 and the Power Pack, PS4 isn’t an issue. It’s pretty much cross platform playing when Sport Mode is involved.
It’d be a good question to ask why the last say seven months of cars aren’t SOPHY compatible and also why some others have been scratched from certain circuits.
