Quick question for anyone who has done this,when you win a championship you are given a choice of 3 cars to pick at random.Can you do the championship again and win a different car,and so forth until you have collected all 3?

Nope. It's one-shot - this is mentioned in the Prize Car article.

5th straight online win. I'm tempted to retire now with a perfect record. I just got bumped up to a C rating. 😬

I play on a projector setup and every time I go to the license test main menu it messes up my projector. The screen flashes then turns to static like a tv, then it shuts down, lol.

I haven’t heard anything about race conversions yet so I assume they are not implemented in GT7? I believe it was GT5 or GT6 where you could do a total conversion and turn for example a street spec Corvette C6 into a race car variant.

I guess the PD created Gr.4 and Gr.3 “original cars“ are somewhat the same effect but it was still nice to be able to convert it yourself. ☺️

With the plethora of custom options and the livery editor, specific race modification option isn't really needed anymore.

Yeah that doesn't seem to be an option.

I absolutely loathe the drift mission in like the wind. Just completely unfun and seemingly impossible to get gold in, barely made silver . About to just pack it all in. And Sarah positive reinforcement is actually just making it worse by making me want to throw my controller through the screen

Does GT7 on PS5 have progress tracking on the trophies? It doesn't show for me

Thank you, Update and Daily Workout ticket.

is that what's hiding in the gold bar? Lucky lucky, I'm getting the 5K pile almost every time

Guys I have a question about custom arcade mode. How advanced is the custom grid? Can you choose every car on the grid or do you only choose car classes?
I haven't see any video about this.

If you choose "Select from Garage" you can customise everything down to their name and nationality - it's quite neat.

Only caveat with that is you have to own the car you want them to have, so until you have a big collection its only really good for one-makes. I wish you could choose from group and still customise individual driver properties.

Might be an online addict. Did a bunch of C races but one guy has my number...

Don't think that was ever announced or hinted at so unsurprisingly it does not appear to be at the moment. Maaaybe that could happen in a later update but for now, definately not seeing it.

It took two tickets? Pffft, so slow!

I'm just waiting for someone to somehow have a Legend car show up in the Roulette and then somehow win the car while having nowhere near the money to afford one. Might as well go the full distance in nuking people's luck with RNG

Totally have no experience in that BTW...

Have you tried drifting like the wind? 🤔

The Ferrari F40 has a sick looking rear wing, it's the LM wing I believe.

(No widebody available, but you can install a front and side carbon splitter and a rear diffuser.)

Thank god for this bad boy, just in time to buy the F40:

Given the real F40 LM doesn't appear to be much wider then the road version, that's actually fairly realistic.

Got my first rank C win. 😁

Does the front ""aero"" convert the car to fixed headlights like the LM too?

No, sadly.

 

[grandtourismo]

when did the first car pack for GT Sport come? like how long after the initial release?

 

[05XR8]

Looks like GT7 did well in the UK. Does anyone know the first week sale figure for GT3?

I'd like to know about separate sales for PS4 & PS5.

is that what's hiding in the gold bar? Lucky lucky, I'm getting the 5K pile almost every time

Yeah. It had the two silver stars on top and two on bottom. Roulette started with the spot light on an engine. Thought it would land there. It went slow and the music ended on camshafts and went one more spot, to the five gold bars.

New update has reduced tyre smoke and spray by about 70-90% . . . that's two of the things that this game did best gone in one update.

I'd love to know who told them that was a 'fix' they needed to apply.

This is the stupidest fix they have made. They have literally ruined a good 50% of the game.

November (Ironically enough with an update numbered 1.06)

This is the stupidest fix they have made. They have literally ruined a good 50% of the game.

They might've done this due to performance issues on both consoles, which I would say is far from a stupid fix.

One, I genuinely do not understand the point of Music Rally. Yes, I said that on day one, minute one, but I have further points after purposefully going into it the other day to try and...get it.

• Why is there a timer? I get they're going for an arcade feeling here and it works wonders, but ultimately it's rather pointless because...
• No matter what you do, the session is done the second the song ends.
• Why are there other cars on the track with you? They're just rolling roadblocks, literally and, well, just literally. Because the AI is 🤬 stupid beyond compare.
• Why is there a rolling start, with the timer already ticking down and the song already started? Why not do a standing start? The other cars are pointless anyway so what difference does it make?
• What's the point of this? If it's to have fun, then sure, whatever. At a glance though it seems it's another thing in GT's library that's different simply for the sake of being different without any real substance to it.

I actually do like the feature. It's novel but could use some more work to be even better. I believe it's inclusion caters primarily to the Japanese fans who play a lot of games at the arcades including stuff like dance dance revolution etc. Japan is notorious for it's gaming arcades and related stuff.

Think of it like the coin-op arcades. You put in a dollar and you get to race with some music, regardless of if you win or lose, that's your turn done and dusted. Maybe in japan they have an coin-op dedicated to a Music Rally only version of GT7? Lol I'd bet on it just for fun
