Hi All, I came across this site while researching GT, I'm a casual gamer but love racing though I don't get much time, but when I do I connect the steering wheel rig and get on to Gran Turismo 7 1st, then AC Evo (PC) and finally Forza Horizon 4 (PC) for fun from the racing side of things. Glad to be part of this forum.

Welcome mate!
 
Hey good night. I found this site by searching for mod files for gt 6 on ps3. Never know I would find anything even though I don't find the link for the download yet. I love cars games and football games, they relax me after a busy day at work. The safest place for me to drive at high speed is on the game.
 
Hello everyone,
I'm from Indonesia. I'm here to look for information about this game. I've always been a huge fan of racing games, ever since I was young. Currently, the only games I'm playing are GT 1 through GT 4, due to my limited hardware. I'm hoping that in the future, once I have a console that's capable of running GT 7, this place can be the source of information I need.
 
What's good, GT family! 🏁

Just rolled up here because GT2 and GT4 have been calling my name - time to dive back into those legendary memories that made us all fall in love with cars! Seeing hundreds of thousands of passionate racers in this community is absolutely INSANE, and I'm hyped to be part of this legacy.

Repping Puerto Rico and bringing that island racing spirit! 🇵🇷

These games didn't just teach us how to drive - they made us dreamers, collectors, and speed demons. Ready to share some stories, chase some lap times, and get lost in car culture with all of you beautiful people.

Let's get this engine started! 💨
 
Good morning, afternoon, evening, what have you. I'm driftnut753.
  • How did you find GTPlanet? I found GTPlanet nearly a decade ago looking for tips and tricks for GT6 seasonal events (man I wish they'd come back in GT7, might breath some life into the game)
  • Where are you from? Townsville, Queensland originally but reside in Adelaide, South Australia.
  • When did you start playing racing games? At the age of 3 (just turned 30). Started with GT2 and RRT4 on the PS1 and never looked back.
  • Do you play with a steering wheel? If so, what kind do you use? I don't, I'm a disgusting controller user.
  • What other games do you enjoy? A multitude of different games and genres, lately outside of GT7 and FM23, I've been playing a load of Ace Combat 7 and Bomb Rush Cyberfunk.
  • What are you most looking forward to doing in the community? Just seeing the opinions of others and being involved in a community of like minded racing fans.

I have been unable to figure out where to submit my feed back about gt "sim". I've been playing for several years. But I feel in order for true sim, they need to add "real time weather" per track location for it to true "sim" and to have all us "sim" drivers to truly be tested and experienced.

Let's all agree on one thing. When looking of forecast past/present/and future, anyone can see free. Why can't gt include?

That is one of many when they refer to as a "sim" as profession. It doesn't even come close to "Microsoft flight sim" (which btw, a small fraction does count for licence/hours in general). And is used to simulate from schools to military. With hundreds of people in your hands.

There is not even a dnf category in anyone's profile.

Don't get me wrong. Gt original (in 97) was a great stepping stone to call "sim". But, technology has greatly improved to use word "sim".

So after all most 3 decades (when gt first rolled out), why do they still call it a "sim", when they can't even do real life weather?

Hi everyone, I'm from Italy and I discovered GTplanet while searching for information about the Gran Turismo series online.

My first encounter with racing games was several years ago with "Ford Racing 2" (which I received as a gift in a cereal box).

Only more recently have I wanted to try the Gran Turismo series and I'm currently playing chapters 1, 2, 3, and 4.
