Put your BB opposite where the car naturally burns tires. For me I use the 458 GR.3 and the rears loose tread bad. My BB is always in the front unless it’s a turn I need better rotation on.

Yes i know to do that.
FR cars mostly burns tires at the front so you have to put the BB at the rear with MR cars mostly the opposite way.
But maybe it's steering wheel depentent and maybe it has less effect on controller?
Another factor that has influence on it is the way you shift gears, i do it automaticaly (manual just is hard for me physical wise) or is this is not the case?

Yea if you are on controller it can be a challenge to persevere your tires. 🛞 Also as you said the Auto transmission is not helping you either… with manual transmission you can control the car a lot better and will ultimately be a better faster driver! Good luck in your race, I love league racing in GT7 brings out the full potential of the game imo.

That's currently £5.32. I somehow doubt we'll ever see it be £5 over here...

Your games progression - in case of GT7 - is stored on the game server.
Replays are not part of the data that are stored for the games "savegame" so they can not be transfered.
As I dont do replay stuff, I dont know how you would copy them onto your Pro, maybe share replay on PS5 and download on PS5Pro.

Hi I need some help, just upgraded to a PS PS5 Pro, my Gt7 was installed on my m.2 I swapped over, I followed all the steps of doing all my game transfer and save data to the new PlayStation with a lan cabel , I put it up the game with no problems, but I lost all my replays and photo shots, how do I transfer them to my PS5 Pro?
 
Replays and photos you wanted had to been saved to a USB drive externally before you transferred. They may still exist on the ps4, start it up and check and if they are still there on the ps4 copy them over to a USB drive, then transfer them to the ps5 with the USB drive.

I check my old ps5 and there gone too 😭
It was ps5 to ps5 pro and the game was on my m.2 I swap over
 
A new Mclaren (2nd car from left, front row)???
Better late than never I guess

Edit: a closer look made my realise that is the 296

Cool - btw at least it shows that i am not only one who thinks the 296 is like mclaren :D

My initial reaction was that it looked like a McLaren... but the 296 makes a whole lot of sense. Oh well! 🤷‍♂️
 
Well we've criticised before where we have a GT3 car without the road car so it makes sense. Although would love a McLaren. The panda is here too so everyone can stop talking about it.
 
Two remaining cars not being the rally Porsche & Beetle - that means Race Modifications/new tuning parts are happening!

Curious if via update or DLC. I'd almost suspect the latter, to make it more appealing to players who don't care about single player races. Excited either way.

This should be cool. We‘ll finally be able to turn the 959 into the actual Dakar version.

I'd more suspect that they are special pre-tuned prize cars, rather than new GT Auto modifications.
The Power Pack has 16 prizes to obtain according to this.

Hopefully none of them are roulette tickets, and it means there are 16 special pre-tuned prize cars.
Would be cool if they were new regular GT Auto parts though.
But we don't have too long to wait to find out.

Besides Beetle and 911 there was also an 86 with a different bumper and widebody from what we have in game. That many new tuning parts (to the point of needing a complete rehaul of GT Auto) or racing modifications would be an insane thing not to include in their promo posts about Spec III and not pre-advertise it. Though it's not very unlikely for PD to just keep it a secret until full reveal the day before update, when they included new wheels in the Eiger update it was shown in the trailer a few weeks in advance, and it was just new wheels. Counter-arguments: not all wheels were shown in that trailer and there were updates later which added new wheels without a trailer showcase. And we didn't even really get a proper Spec III trailer yet, there's nothing on GT YouTube channel, only an announcement from State of Play on Playstation channel, which uses a bunch of old GT7 videos and doesn't showcase a lot of Spec III. Still, there is a somewhat detailed post on GT website and it doesn't say anything about new GT Auto, it doesn't even say anything like "and more!" in the end, just says more details to follow, but those are details about what is already said in the post. So my bet is definitely on special prize cars for Power Pack and not on new parts or racing modifications for Spec III. Except maybe some new wheels again (which would be very nice).

I probably have early dementia because it feels like I already wrote a post exactly like that about this topic and I can't find it.

The ZD8 BRZ coming in road and GT300 variants together did result in some writing both off as dupes (granted both are variants of ZN8 GR86 but still).

You could use the same argument for the Power Pack DLC though. Neither the Playstation blog post nor the Gran Turismo news post about the Power Pack DLC mention exclusive customization parts/customized cars. Considering it is a significant point that a good portion of the playerbase would be interested in, one would think they would include that in the features list if it was exclusive to the DLC. Instead, the features list only mentions 50 races, prac & quali, Sophy 3.0, and 5mil credits (wow).

Sure, we only learnt of this from the Power Pack DLC, and we know that the 86 is a reward car, but that doesn't mean the customization parts are locked to the DLC. But I guess we will know soon enough... :)

That's fair, yeah. I'm pretty sure it's not gonna be exclusive for Power Pack parts or customization, that would be the weirdest choice, but still it is weird how they didn't announce exclusive customized cars (if that's what it is). I guess the logic might be to announce it closer to holidays, i.e next week, rather than a month ago? Because like you said exclusive stuff like that can be a good selling point for Power Pack and new customization like that would be good to boost sales just for the game in general if it's a part of free update. Either way, yes, we will see soon enough.

That's because GT games are distributed for free to all new borns in Japan and at this point practically everyone in the country has a copy of GT7

Only a few handful of people are still GT7 copy-less...

And this this extreme sale is to ensure the last 1% of the population will jump on this sale to complete total GT7 domination in Japan.... ;)

Saw this posted on the Facebook comment section. Language used doesn't make sense, but the panda and Ferrari road car are on it.

Why give legitimacy to Facebook, when you could have just gone to the front page article on this Channel/ Forum
GT Planet perfectly sums up the facts and what we know so far.... No need to go on a dumpster fire trash bin that is Fakebook to look for information....
