That would be an absolute banger if you ask me, killing but motivational for me 😂
But you could be on to something there!

I love the Nurburgring Nordschleife. It's the best track in the world. I couldn't get enough of the Clubman Cup 600 (in the current weekly challenge races). Driving a road car in Racing tyres is pure bliss.

it just pains me to think this because I know I'm wronging Kaz, but I have to hope he uses twitter the way politicians use it, making crap posts at crap times

 

[KK78]

Gutted there are no new TTs Or at least not yet, means I'll have to go back to LeMans (good) in that Toyota (bad)

 

[KAlex122]

@ LeMans i'm at 3,12% but i hate it. Won't go back.

Not for at least six months - more likely nearer a year.

There ought to be a Time Trial for the Mercedes-AMG "Virtual Championship" Esports series, but I think that begins tomorrow. I'd just got gold on Alsace and Tokyo on both my own account and the GTP pool as well

Any idea Mate as to why no new TTs were put up online? Maintenance or was some announcement made regarding this prior to today?

I'm as surprised as anyone else.

 

[GundamEmpire]

Updates are starting to get further apart and now they are skipping adding new events...this does not look good.

I'm at 2.4% in a Grp C car. Go old school man

Reminder that your scorekeeper remains AWOL and results for the TTs that finished today will follow at the weekend.

Gr3 at Redbullring boys and girls 🤔

On RM btw

 

[Nebuc72]

What a phone-in.

 

[newmedia_dev]

Not going back to this one! This will do.

 

[Nakano219]

Red Bull Ring with Gr.3 definitely feels like PD's equivalent of what you hand in when you'd forgotten about a piece of homework until the morning before (or until a few hours after, in this case).

 

[Todt]

Again, Red Bull must have really invested a lot of money 😒

 

[ZevZoq]

lame event. Jeez...how bout making use of some of those expensive legends cars PD?

 

[Metalgear9493]

A piece of homework that's also been ravaged by a puppy, and had coffee spilt on it.

See y'all in 2 weeks🫡

 

[KK78]

At least most of the Gr3 cars look competitive (glancing at the leaderboard) at the Fizzy Drink Ring

That's something I guess

My love with the M6 is still new and not yet over... otherwise this combo couldn't be less appealing

Gran Turismo 7 Online Time Trial: Grand Taurus​

After a short delay this morning there’s a new Gran Turismo 7 Online Time Trial, as the global hotlap event doubles-up on the racing car categories...

 

[Uday9479]

Last evening & today morning was doing nothing but studying @Tidgney 's Le Mans TT guide video. Was pausing more than him ( ) to understand the gears used during specific turns, the speed travelling through them & how he maneuvered the car through some of the trickiest braking points/corners.

Rejuvenated thanks to @Tidgney 's infectious positivity, went about doing runs. My PB was 1:12:4xx but after seeing his guide lap for long, I was able to better my PB to 3:11:199. My optimum was at times in 3:10:858 so I knew I could better my previous PB. This I achieved with M/T.

That's You @Tidgney (TCR_Tidney) - the ghost car which is right in front out here.

I played the TT again this evening & was having hit & miss with getting close to my PB. I tried a different tactic after setting a session best of 3:11:475. I used to restart the session & developed the mindset that if I invalidate a lap, I'll restart to erase the mistake & also not to just drive 3 minutes more to start a new lap. This way I kind of removed my inhibition of invalidating a lap & being overly cautious.

This time I switched to A/T as I prefer this mode when there are too many gears & when the track is twisty enough to keep changing gears up & down. I after a few restarts managed to best my previous PB by clocking 3:11:082. I really want to get into the 3:10s & with a perfect lap I know I can do this as my Optimum Lap was 3:10:547. Feeling good as was very apprehensive with this TT a few days back.

AMG Hot Lap TT at Monza will be starting tomorrow too!

Sorry for the OT question...
But why you are keeping the commercial/specs label on your screen?
Aren't you annoyed to have a not full clear screen?
(just a curiosity)

 

[Carlos Fandango]

AMG Hot Lap TT at Monza will be starting tomorrow too!

Was there a news article/posting on this? Region specific?

Used to it. It's a full plastic cover over the OG screen. It's right in the corner of the 43# screen so barely affects me.

Not yet, and no. Multi-title again too.
