Couple that with unimaginative race rosters (it’s not about extending sport or more races) they have all the tools already there to make it feel fresh….but no, they took the cash grab choice.

Very disappointing strategy and tactics IMO

Yes, it clearly exposes the strategy behind their Daily Race choices throughout these years... there's no incentive from their pov to mix up the recipe with the many unused circuits and cars in this amazing game they've created.

The only saving grace for Race A (lol, rhymes) is that it doesn't affect DR nor SR, so it's basically just for funsies.

It seems as if their intention is for it to be NASCAR styled anyways. Maybe they saw there were enough liveries created and said yup, will the playerbase accept this style of racing :lol:

Good racing in race B today - been a long time since the 911 has been my car of choice, but it works really well here.

A win, a second place, and then another win saw me back to DR B, but it's taking longer to recover my SR!

Managed 5 races today and I’ve tried the 911, the Supra and the 296 and I have to say I’m settling with the Ferrari, just feels a little more planted in the turns,

I managed a 1.42.5xx which I think I can take a few tenths off but it’s good having a proper race track back, the participants are a little to be desired but hopefully by the weekend those guys are further down the rankings 😁

The race format is fine, curated cars are fine.

Making the fastest car a DLC single player car that can’t be rented is not a themed race, and using the other cars (GT3s) and not single Toyota Crowns or similar.

It’s a pre Xmas cash grab and A is the mechanism to test this sort of “sales incentives” and definitely not about racing it’s not even pretending it’s just blatant funnelling to the DLC

Edit:

Another thing that is highly hypocritical is making players watch the “what is sportsmanship” and then bypassing what that means with you wanna win? You want to race fairly and competitively?

Pay up.

Well, I didn't think my concern a few weeks ago was completely warranted, since I didn't expect PD to actually want to make the Power Pack "pay-to-win", but I guess I was slightly wrong in that regard. :boggled:

Thankfully it's only for a simple Daily Race A. Here's hoping this is the last time this happens...

None of the DLC gift cars are Gr3 or Gr4, so even if they use the others in dailies they're most likely to be Race A.
And if they tried to make it a one-make using one of the DLC cars that'd be howled down, so if they want to use them they'll probably be mixed with base game cars like this race.
I'd love to see a one-make with the desert Beetle on dirt tbh, would be fun.

I don’t know, they could still do something like the PP events. The DLC cars on the left are better performing than the cars to their right. Though they could still tune accordingly.

I did something naughty:



If you want to see the difference between the Mustang and the rest of the field watch this. I think I counted ten seconds between me and fourth at one point. Haven't had a week like this since the Jimny engine swap and this was on pace alone.

Disclaimer: I was going buy the PP at Xmas anyway, so I just bought it forward, I didn't do do this strictly for the pay to win.
 
Ooof, race c can get tense, shame I got punted off at end of lap 1 which essentially ruined my race but hey ho started getting dry mouth chasing guy infront to get p8. Try again tomorrow, did a few race b this morning which was fun got my first p3 and p5 in a total 4 races. First time I got a top5 since switching to the gyro wheel.

Gran Turismo 7 Daily Races: Illusion of Choice​

There’s a bit of a strange look to this week’s Gran Turismo 7 Daily Races, with two races featuring specific car lists, a tie-in with this weekend’s Gran Turismo World Series final with a big credit boost, a tuning event, an oval race, and one which looks shockingly pay-to-win...

Pay to win? Noooooo, this is just an issue with a new car's BoP. No screwy economics to see here.
