Welcome, embarrassing??. Maybe I should lock myself in a dark room and have a word with myself considering I was proud as punch for getting in silver by 600th of a second. Happy New year to all.

Embarrassing was probably the wrong word. I take my hot lapping very seriously (in the funnest sense!)

Congrats on your Silver lap. What will you spend the credits on!? I'm waiting for an S2000 to pop up in the used car section - it's one of my favourite in-game cars. I already have the Amuse version.

Morning fellow tarmac licking addicts

I wish you all a very happy New Year with all the love and health you can get, make it a good one folks!

That said, hanged over I started in the Toyota Supadupa this morning, still a struggle, had some real oversteer trouble during the lap what did cost me a lot of time but eventually still was a .2 on the bridge and a save but reasonable last chicane 😂, so did set a new PB.. 1:53.664 , still lots of room but find a very difficult to tame the turbo's 😂
Hope this sticks for a top 100

Then..... the new one.....Zonda R ...Dragon trail ....what a scary combo this is!
That thing thru the dead chicane is just terrifying 😂
I turned off the PS5 after having like 10 laps better than the PB but with a "sudden stop" at the chicane .....
But did go through ones though 😂

Not really sure which car coming next, maybe the mines skyline or something I previously needed an invitation for, I will be spending most of my time on the dragon trail TT want me another silver medal. Way off after my first session though.

I'm still faffing around with my wheel settings. Got them a bit more to my liking but I reckon it's just a matter of practice in this particular game.
 
The results for TT181 at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya National Layout in the Gr.4 are over here. I have updated the opening post with the index of all TTs and the second post with the community scoreboards. A reminder that each driver's results for every TT are in the Excel file attached to the latest results post.

Here are some statistics for TT182 at Grand Valley - Highway 1 in the Toyota Supra GT Road Car (JZA80).

Hello guys!! Happy new year to y'all, and for 2026 keep this in your mind: keep you right foot down and your speed up (when possible) lol 🤣

I'm still here, doing the occasional Time Trial when I can find some spare time for that.
Collected quite a few Silver medals lately, because I've been focusing a lot more on doing some of the Circuit Experiences instead of Time Trialing, turns out they're a very good way to learn a track/layout and to win myself some sweet credits too!

Here's my progress on the Supra TT:
Gran Turismo™ 7_20251228120820.webp

DISCLAIMER: this is a VERY outdated picture from last sunday, the World Record has dropped (again) since then, and so did my placing on the leaderboard which is around the top 10,000 by now...

Very nice car this Supra, it's so beautiful and I like the way it flows through the corners but you also have to respect it otherwise you know what's going to happen...

Made this PB with CSA Strong and no TCS, but might try using TCS 1 mostly because of the chicane which is where I'm loosing way too much time.
------------------------------
On the new Time Trial though... still haven't tried it but... Dragon Trail - Seaside? :scared: Almost feels like a premonition!

Believe it or not, I was tackling the Circuit Experience for this very layout just yesterday (no kidding!) for the 1st time, and man did it get on my nerves, especially because of the horrendous chicane.

Of course, that Gr.3 Jaguar F-Type did a pretty good job at upsetting me (that car just hates those sausages!), the Zonda should be a little better...

I hope...



Probably not :lol:

I am adapting to wheel/ pedals from controller and when I got it, I read some recommendations to upgrade brake pedal, that would kind of mean the biggest upgrade. Honestly I feel I control brake pretty OK for now without any upgrade, but I feel I still have a lot to practice to get used to gas pedal. Or both current TTs are heavy powered cars where pressing gas too much or too early make me lose the car. Pretty much 9 of 10 laps I invalidate on Dragon Trail with Zonda.
Barely into gold in first session. Need way more practice 😬

In all honesty, I think the two running timetrials are not the easiest cars to switch from pad to wheel mate, the Supra is just very sketchy, and the Zonda scares the crap out of me, and is mega oversteery 😂 (what seems to be a real learningcurve for the wheel)
So ..... you are probably going to be unstopable if you master these ones.....I have the feeling it's not going to take very long for you to be out of reach for me. 😂🙏

( man I realy need to get a wheel 2 😂)
