Ugh, neo classic. Better dig out one of my Group Cs.
Oh goodie. Willow Springs. One of the tracks I absolutely despise.
 
After a full week of trying, no clean win from Suzuka. The last attempt got ruined when Wong, on his 8th lap with no fuel saving while I had already had to refuel after six laps and short shifting at half bar, decided to outbrake me on his Racing Mediums that still had noticably more grip than my pretty much brand new ones that had replaced a set that had been just about dead after those six laps, and not even try to avoid contact but slam right into my side. Cheating physics and no awareness, a great combination.

If someone drove like that in a real race I could kiss my racing career goodbye as I'd have an assault charge and a prison sentence coming up. Tony Stewart would look like a choir boy in comparison as he only threw a helmet as the opponent's car from a distance - I'd aim at the ****head's face point blank.

Gran Turismo 7 Weekly Challenges: Hurry Up, We Avantime

There’s likely only two more sets of Gran Turismo 7 Weekly Challenges coming in their current form, so the latest suite of events that are available from Friday morning probably constitutes the penultimate offering...
 
The Willow Springs Neo-Classic race is another CLASSIC PD difficulty logic of "We can't program AI properly, so we will just spread them miles alart because we are rubbish and proud of it."

Group Cs on their stock power, running on Mediums and corner like on rails. And we, the hapless players will make do with a detuned one.

Yeah, so probably I'll do it on Easy difficulty on smash those A.I. cars to smithereens until I get my fix. :lol:
 
One last round at Road Atlanta this evening. Engine swapped old school Skyline, but detuned 70%, which brought it down in the 300+hp range. Minimal mods after that, race trans, and suspension, on stock brakes, and SS tires. Came to 598pp, so almost at the limit. Really liked the way this car was handling, ran the race 3 times, to pretty easy wins.

I had one more run at the WTC 600 race. I wanted to go old school, so I pulled the famous Red Pig. I had already put RHs on it at some point. I made all my time up in the first 2 sectors and lost a bit down the back straight. The 4 speed just didn’t have the top end of the rabbits. Still got the W!
