I got to bop gr3 races, those are going to be difficult... I one first one (5 laps Suzuka) which is kinda easy with Final Evo Gr3 from my Manufacturer races and than went to Daytona Oval and just rage quited for today after few attempts
 
I was in doubt whether to grind some races to make 3.6 million for the FXX Ferrari. I have an invitation to buying the car that ends tomorrow.

But I don't think it's worth it. I would be somewhat broke afterwards.

I have seen the Pagani Zonda R. It's half the cost. And almost as good.

I dunno. But I did some offroad racing to get some more credits. It does seem like the game forces you to spend them well, sort of speak. Like I can really experience a lack of credits lol.

I've seen that it's possible to buy them. But that's something I'm probably never going to do.

I am actually waiting for a Sierra Cosworth to make an appearance. I have the Escort one. Didn't know the Sierra was in GT7 as well.
 
I did my daily marathon mileage, for the customary crummy 3-star ticket and 10,000 cr. But I also did the third weekly event that brought 200,000 cr. plus the earnings of that race. I then completed the NSX menu book and raised my collector's level to 37.
 
Made Senna‘s and Häkkinen‘s McLaren MP4/8 from the 1993 F1 World Championship.

For the daily mileage I unlocked and finished the Hypercar parade menu, which I dominated with the AM Vulcan/Porsche 918 (stage 3 weight reduction and other modifications).

These races are odd because they include cars that are decidedly NOT hypercars, like the Mercedes SLS, the McLaren 650S, the Lexus LFA, the Lamborghini Murcielago and others.

Anyways, crummy 3-star ticket and even crummier 5,000 cr. award. I also completed the inline-6 BMW menu, and again, these would be better done by racing instead of just purchasing the cars.
 
I did 10 laps gr1 race on suzuka to finish weekly challenges.. with RB because I'm lazy.. than I saw only Suzuka race I have to finish is 10 laps 800pp so I did that too with 962C because I'm lazy.. Got Bugatti Chiron from weekly roulette spin
 
I'm currently doing what I just enjoy most - driving all kind of different cars around Nordschleife.

Today I was looking at cars I haven't driven for quite some time and I found the Mustang Boss 429, so I took it to the track. Stock, except for body modifications, wheels and silencer. I couldn't remember the last time I drove it and tbh I didn't expect much....and then the car blew me away! So nice to drive and such a powerful engine! I had a really good time out there!

But one thing baffles me. They build this great car, put a incredible powerful 7 liter engine in it (as mentioned in the description of the car the engine may even put out quite a bit more power than rated) and then limit the top speed on the transmission to less than 200kmh/124mph. Why? Why no fifth gear? Or at least different ratios for a top speed around 240/150? There's easily enough power for this.

It's not just this car, other muscle cars from this era also have a rather low top speed while having sufficient power. But for some I understand it - when it feels more like a boat than a car you probably won't go above 200/124. But the Boss isn't like that. The suspension is good!

Anyway, as I said, it was a very enjoyable lap. Because of the car and also because I got really lucky with the weather. It somehow doesn't look that good on the screenshot but in game it was beautiful!
