Thats a better memory than me but I remember now, I ran wide in the exit and I missed a gear shift for the last corner so turned in a gear higher than I wanted so just ran wide. The Ferrari behind was making me nervous tbh as well.

Its actually nice to get to race with people I speak to on here
 
It's my mom's birthday today so I need to do something special for her. I'm gonna give her some flowers, a cake and a card.

It has been a joy and pleasure doing the Civic races at Grand Valley this week.
 
Managed to go faster but I am afraid it's time up for the week as watching some TV before the football starts... Well done to the communists drivers who did a faster TT than me this week 😂 Bit upset that had I not messed up, would have gone into the 1:29'0s too or even into the 28's...

I tried to be a communist this morning for ten laps. Didn't work, luckily. 😜

The fact I beat you with all 3 accounts...I don't allow Maltese migrants as friends in my Alt EU account. Socialists ya see so you artificially overachieved by one position on your leaderboard.


Excellent effort in the non meta alternative meta 🤷‍♂️

I think LS will be trickier for me next week but we will see but I'm imagine being waaaaay down the order next week.

Enjoy the football 🍻

I usually do well in Laguna IF I manage to avoid the mayhem in T1, but that's the norm nowadays in all tracks and races..... What 3 accounts? I only see 2 and to be fair, accounts named "Glen" and "NotGlen" don't really rank high in my list in terms of non-communists 😂 Any idead if Gr3 or Gr4 for LS?

All those famous communists named Glen I can understand why you feel that way....

No idea, genuinely could go either way on car selection, I'm hoping they us Daily C as a GR3 replacement for the YT streamers and we get GR4 in B but it could be either based on the race specs.

From a racing point of view Gr3 is better at LS from a QT point of view Gr4 is more fun and tighter.

Neither are bad just different....

I found my missing tenths in the first sector View attachment 1365384

Then lost a couple in the middle!


A 28.9 was possible, but I'm all RBR'd out. My new time still only had me 14th in the race I tried 🤣

Did you add me on PSN earlier just to remove me a bit later? 😂 Where the hell am I in your "friend" list - or at least, I thought we were?! 😂 Nice one though, I believe you also beat my PB now!

Good lord. My .34 puts me in the top 5 at worst in my A/A+ lobbies. That's insane.

I think it's because I hadn't been 'out' of the game - I see @newmedia_dev 's US account wasn't showing either.
I tried removing and adding you again.
Notglen is showing now I've been back in to the game, so hopefully Malta Saab will be showing next time 👍

I'm sorry to ask again, but what was your username? I'm fixing to add you shortly. I'm going to work on some more RBR and Grand Valley races. I'm really excited about the Colorado Springs races this coming week, aren't you? I'm dreading Laguna Seca again though. I've never been an expert there, the Corkscrew always kicks my butt when I go really fast and then I lose my balance and go into the sand trap. It's such a steep embankment that any action could upset the balance of the car that I drive. That's my gist on the subject of the matter.

UK and US accounts are both in my signature below 👍👇
 
@GrumpyOldMan, hey, you know I was thinking this afternoon that you would show up late tonight because we haven't seen you post today. But you told me a week ago you were working on a project. Technically it was 7:44pm when you made that post, California is 3 hours behind us. I live in North Carolina so it's after 1am here. You ready for Laguna Seca again?

Why is PD repeating the same tracks over and over. I mean gt7 isn't old yet.

I am gonna abuse the Colorado Springs races, xD.
 
Guys, I know it's still early Monday morning - but....

Wow dude, you're on fire!! That was an incredible lap, I don't know how you pull it off, but you'll sure give the aliens a workout!!

@Fezzik it would be nice if there would be a Group 1 or 2 battle at LS.

Wow, everybody's using the G70, even I began to use it initially for LS, so I'm gonna stick with it. It was a fun bumpy QT session at Colorado Springs in the wee hours of the morning. I guess today I will focus on qualifying and tomorrow do a lot of the daily races. That is my goal for this week.

Honestly I was expecting a more variety of cars for the Autopolis races, only 2? Come on PD... Maybe it's allright but there needs to be more spicier and unique races for people to play. That's how popularity grows, you give them a race that's attracting like the Group 2 Cup in Deep Forest that was a couple months back.


@JDM_GT7 so what did you think of the C races?

@TechnoIsLove I actually got on at 3am and posted a time at Colorado Springs which got me a rank of 35th place. That was my moment of fame but I'm sure it will be gone by later tonight.

I'm tired of tackling on the Corkscrew, lol.
 
Really bummed with A. Was hoping it would be Fisherman's in something like a GrB car or truck or one of the SUVs, not Colorado. But a FF road car and SR is on? Na. We just got done with a brutal week for SR (RBR and LeMans)!

Not a fan of Gr4 cars or Laguna, and was hoping C would be something new. It's neat that it's something non-Gr3 for the road car people, but we've done the 86 there multiple times before. Could've been, like... any other road car. Oh well.

Hey PD, regarding this week's dailies...

I havent done many sport mode races since the Kyoto Gr4 race. I hate the fixxed setups they give us. Gr4 car are so understeery, and the Stock GR86 on sports hards is slippery than a IRL GR86 because the LSD default setup is set WAY too aggressively.
It anti Grand Turismo IMO to not be able to set up a car.

Setting up the car has been something you do since Gt1, and IMO people's DR should be based on their skill and their ability to set up a car, you know like in IRL, for "the real driving" simulator. Basically if you do not know how to set up, then I feel your DR will just settle where you are with default setups.

Been focusing on a couple leagues I run and tuning the car for those until sport modes comes to back to the spurt of setup races they had, I really wish the pro streamers would complain about it. I legit wonder what the majority of the player bases wants.
