I'm just thankful that it isn't a drifting mission.

SSSSSHHHH!! Don't give them any ideas.
Good God, Catalunya RC. And after watching quite a few of the dailies at CGV, I may have to pass on that one.

I guess what Spec III changed is the Special Event being a rotation between a mission event, a race or a Time Trial.

Don't want to imagine it being a drift mission because those kill me enough.

The "good" thing about CGV is that's a very good track for cheating. Two chicanes that can be completely cut running full throttle, plus one or two additional corners that can be at least partially cut.

But please don't tell anybody - me of course I won't abuse this track for cheating...

a pay-to-win one-make...

Oh man, that's gonna one of the hardest weeks we had so far! Rallycross at Catalunya, Kei Car race, Super formula and a pay-to-win one-make...

Boy, that Yas Marina Gr.3 race is tough. Such a slippery track. It's fun, but the best I can manage is 3rd in a Gr.3 car. Fastest lap I can get is high 1:54's. You have to be so careful with the throttle coming out of those turns, even with traction control turned on.

You talk about current WTC800 ? I was doing 51s in the end with the Audi RS5, and it was my first laps on this track, so I am a bit surprised. What car did you use ?

Lightly delayed, courtesy of how smegging long a 400MB update takes to install on PS4...

5 minute long download, 5 millennia to install. Not to mention how the console handle updates: I had to free 30 gb just for this one and after deleting a 42 gb game it still asked for another 3 gb

I know why this happens, but damn...

On this note, does anyone know if I can delete Snowrunner and still keep my saves? I may need to delete the game, update GT7 and then reinstall Snowrunner

I'm going to stick to standards, see how things pan out.

@smoothbore12 SWR3 is my favorite local radio station.

The RS5 is a Gr.2 car. I was in the new Ferrari 296 Gr.3 car.

Had to dig the Audi DTM "cheat mobile" out this week for its first run in ages, as we finally got a new WTC800 race with the Yas Marina event...

Running the 5 WC events plus bronze awards for Eiger Reverse and Yas Marina got me up to 2m to buy the Espace F1.

Which got me the 6* ticket for the "Seasonal Menu"

Which got me 500k in gold bars

Which means I can buy the Ferrari for next week's events.

I always aim to never exceed minimum effort on an ongoing basis
