GT7 race photos thread

Nice car and photos 👍 I have never seen the LC500 in real life, have it in the game or use this track much! I may have to try them now. Always fun mixing up the racing.

I've seen it once, and it is a beauty in person.

I find it a really nice Luxury GT, but as usual, it is overpriced if you compare it to the usual european competitors, as it doesn't have the same brand charm/prestige. I do not doubt that it is way better put together though, and the V6 Hybrid option doing a combined 8L / 100km, or 29MPG, makes it actually quite nice to the wallet.
Although the LC500h has a CVT + 4-speed auto 🤮

Have a go in it on the game. If you do the same race as I did, do not expect to win, but it is a nice race where you're battling your way up to mid field.

I have to admit the LC500 has an outstanding design language, I've seen a couple in person before and they look really stunning. Especially when I think of the LF-LC concept and the VGT

@Lilium I did a few races with the LC500 (community livery with wide body/spoiler). Custom races with GT3/4 cars and it drove well, I may have to make more tuning parts for it now and look for one in real life, I have seen a rare few Lexus RC cars round here which look really nice but there is no local(ish) official Lexus dealer near me within a decent long drive.

@oldvictory Nice one, mate.
It's a pity that the LC500 in the game doesn't get a spoiler option, as it can only get the slightlty improver 120/150 max DF.

Where I live there's a few lexus going arond, as we do have official stands and such, but people always favour the german entry luxury brands like BMW/Merc/Audi as it is usual in europe. I've seen a couple RC, one being an F.
The CT200h sold well here, and as its the standard nowadays... there's quite of a few SUV's of them going around.


Yesterday I tried to get a Renault R4 with the K24A engine going for the LeMans grind. Detuned it to 325bhp, so it wasn't overpowered and could do at least 3 laps on FM4 and racing hard tyres. If I went lower, it would be hard to keep up and get enough fuel savings.
It was a sunny race, and i managed to get 4laps on the first stint, getting myself into a really good chance to win.

Filled up the tank, put on Race softs as the car is super good on Tyre wear. Came out in 14th place, and at this specs the car isn't really overpowered.

Managed to get myself in first place on the chicanes for the finish line on the 6th Lap.
Still had to do a whole lap with the Corvette always withing 2 seconds of me, until I turned to much on the middle of the porsche curves wil playing around, the car bounced a couple of times, from the grass into kerb bump, and as it lifted its tyres and rev'd hard, my 2% of fuel evaporated, and I had to limp into 8th place.

But a really fun car overall.

Did a retro themed livery, with one old national tyre supplier we had, that is now absorbed into Continental.
