Hmmm, was wondering when there'd be a new Seasonal. :)
 
Damn, beat me to it :sly: I was only gonna grind some British Lightweights, but glad to see some new stuff! :D
 
I just seen that.

I've been racing in the seasonals for a few hours now and it just popped up.Too late to try it out now,but i'll be trying this out tomorrow for sure.

I've already got a couple of standard cars ready to go for this. 👍
 
Ya beat me to it!
 
Currently running this in a 450pp Civic Type R RM on SS tyres...super fun event so far!
 
I'm using the premium S13 @ 417PP using Sports Softs. Pretty fun event so far. :)
 
Looks like its time for me to dust off my "Pocket Monster" Daihatsu Cuore/Mira Avanzato TR-XX tune and let the power of the Kei car rip!:crazy::lol:
 
Sounds like a pretty cool seasonal... I'll try it tomorrow... 👍
 
Wasn't sure if they'd bother after the 'spec 2.0' announcement.
 
Those are nice prizes and circuits... Gran Turismo you're back in the race!
 
If anyone needs me tonight, you'll find me on Trial Mountain ad nauseum in an MR2! :)

I was just gonna say! Time for me to bust out the MKIIT or maybe even my 99 Spyder...

Finally,a reason to use my 99 Spyder,my very first car on my alt. account.👍
 
Yeah, finally something to grind in monaco. Was about time. And trial mountain reverse, how awesome is that :)

Can´t wait to get home tonight!
 
I feel inspired to knock something up in the order of 410PP on Sport Hards. That'll be my evening taken care of... :trouble:

{Cy}
 
Looks good, decent choice of tracks too 👍

Think the EG Civic SiRii (my first car in GT5) will get a run through then I'll have a poke round my garage...
 
EDIT: I'm an idiot...

Time to bring out the Autozam :)
 
Much better selection of circuits - haven't run Monaco* for a while. :D

*It will never be Cote d'Azur to me! ;)

Thanks for sharing. Best lap on Toskana Event: 1:32:690 (first try in lap 5) - feels good on the track :)👍
(You might limit to exact 450PP before sharing... :sly: I dragged it up with 451PP.)
 
Did the Grand Valley in a 91 Acura NSX this morning before heading out for work, pretty decent seasonals. I like being able to choose from a lot of cars instead of one make of car (see Mini's or Miata's :rolleyes:)
 
I don't care that my Skylines and Evos are overpowered, really. Just feels so great to be able to grind in them at last! I've been waiting for an event for mid-range Japanese cars for ages!
 
finally some seasonals where I can use NSX
 
Cool opening shot at Grand Valley. I don't remember them having the camera in a low front shot and panning across the nose then to the side of the car. Maybe I just didn't notice before, but thought that looked cool.
 
Ran the first four of them in my newly acquired Mazda Efini RX-7 in yellow, completely stock, without oil change, and it was pretty fun cruising around Cote d`Azur and Trial Mountain reverse.

The car is very lively, with incredible handling but also tail happy, drift prone. It has probably too much PP to stay competitive with the AI but it`s a sweet ride.

Looking forward to the last race and also trying a bunch of japanese cars I never got my hands on so far. Another great seasonal after super car nostalgia!👍
 
Just busted a few laps with the Spoon Integra on sports soft and 412pp no oil change or parts added before leaving for work this morning. The car is so smooth to drive. Thinking of using the autozam later tonight.

Question, does the Midget qualify for this?
 
Using a Suzuki Cappacuino RM :)

Yeah it would do as it was made in 1998..:lol: good luck!
 
This is amazing... 90's cars is where Japan stands out, there are so many to try. Hope i can use my GT-One Race Car downtuned.
