If it’s connected to the rear PS5 USB port maybe the heat is causing an issue and could try the front one?Almost got 2nd in daily race B after a few attempts, and what does my wheel decide to do last lap? It disconnects, for no apparent reason. I was able to secure a 5th by switching to controller, would've been a third if I hadn't racked up wall penalties while I was desperately trying to reconnect my controller.
This is the second time this has happened with my T150 Pro, last time was a year or two ago during the FGT championship in GT5.. kind of ruined the whole GP, still haven't recovered from it lol. Haven't even touched the game since.
The back of my PS5 is awfully hot now the race is over though. Could the disconnects be due to overheating? Both now and the situation with GT5 happened after playing the games for longer than I usually do.
Wheel still won't connect.. last time I fixed it by waiting overnight.
Should I get a new wheel? I've never heard anyone else have their wheel overheat, and it's not like I've been playing all day. God forbid I ever do one of the upcoming 24 hour endurances..
Same. I had two wins this morning. On the first I won the race from 3rd position. I just stayed close and hoped for a tussle. For some insane reason, 2nd place hit a wall trying to overtake 1st on the last corner of the race, even though 1st had a 1.5 second penalty in place. I couldn't believe it.
Probably just super aggressive lock on the wheel, I haven't been able to do it on a controller but there is dampening on a pad not present with a wheel, could just be full lock, floor it, power on understeer.Something is going on with the cars at race A.
I noticed when watching Doodle's lap replay, that he was smoking the hell out of his left front tire when accelerating through the third turn at Fuji. Wondering how that happens in an all-wheel drive car.
Also, I'm seeing it in races now from the fastest drivers. I've done 150 laps there now, between qualifying and racing and only get tires smoke when decelerating and hard down-shifting. Can't do it under acceleration.
It's supposed to be BoP, with no tuning.
Something is up, though.
They've figured out something.
1.5 second is standard for hitting a wall. You can lightly graze it if you are lucky. Maybe that is what the protagonist did
I guess that's it.
There’s been a lot of talk on here about auto countersteer on a controller even when you switch it off. Could be that kicking in to stop the understeer?I guess that's it.
I messaged Doodle, who's at #3 currently.
In the replay, I see that he smokes the hell out of his left front tire under acceleration at turn 3.
I asked him what's going on there. He said he's just over powering, and understeering.
I've already done hundreds of laps there, this week, and it can't be done with my controller.
So, clearly there's some kind of steering difference in GT7 between wheels and controllers.
Apparently, controllers can't turn the front tires quite as sharply as wheels can.
I think I've uncovered something.
Partially car dependant, some cars can run flat out, fuel mix 1 and not need to pit like the Suzuki Swift. Others will need a little bit of fuel management, short shifting etc so just do a little bit of management and you should make it without a stop.
There’s undefeatable counter steer assist in the pad.
Short shifting makes a massive difference and running fuel mix 2 when you can will help as well. Also different cars are very different on fuel. The Mazda is decent but needs a bit of fuel saving, apparently the Swift can run full beans the whole race. This is definitely a no stop race though so you’re doing something wrong if you have to stop.
I always used the lexus which was easier to manage and bit better fuel conservation.
I noticed that when I was using a controller ( all assist off besides abs) that it looked like each corner had a different maximum steering lock. I think? Pay close attention to the red dot above the rev light. Idk.
I haven't watched his replay, but did you see what type of wheels he's using on the car?I guess that's it.

The steering lock is tied to speed. Buffers against the miniscule lock-to-lock travel compared to a wheel. You don't need full lock at 200kmh, so the game only gives you part of it.
Could be the wind direction was bad on the main straight
