Since more Ford vehicles are coming to the game in the next update, are these two existing Ford cars likely to receive performance adjustments to match their real world counterparts in the update, based on trends from more recent past updates?

The Ford GT40 Mk II in the game currently has the specs from the Mk I (335 hp, 1080 kg) while the real world Mk II produces around 485 hp and weighs 1217 kg (I don’t know if that’s supposed to be the curb weight or the dry weight, please let me know). Additionally, while the 2017 Ford GT’s power and weight are correct, it can barely even reach 190 mph (306 km/h), which is underwhelming for a supercar with that much power. And this is all in stock configuration for both cars, by the way.

Following the trend of recent updates where specific cars had some performance tweaks, can we expect these two cars to also be faster and have more accurate handling compared to the real cars?

Happy 10th anniversary, Assoluto Racing! When did you guys start playing?

I‘ll go first: I found this game on the Google Play Store on an Android device around the end of June 2016, and decided to give it a shot at the start of July that year. Switched to iOS on March 2021 and got a fresh start because my Android device wasn’t compatible with newer versions.

McLaren F1 LM on June 25

Has any subscriber, current or past, received their McLaren F1 LM yet? I’m getting worried that we haven’t heard from the devs yet on this, or even on any 10th anniversary celebration announcements. If anyone does get their F1 LM, let us know. Thanks again in advance!

My first year on Reddit!

Didn’t know what a ‘cake day’ is until now when someone mentioned it, so I decided to treat myself with all these mini cupcakes. It’s not much, but I just love these flavors.

Grateful for all the communities I’ve been in for the past 365 days.

Which era/type of Le Mans race car is your favorite?

I have presented here some race cars made to compete at Le Mans, and in each photo, I got the legendary 60s race cars, the Group C prototypes of the late 80s and early 90s, the GT1 class of the 90s, the 2016 season LMP1 cars, and finally, the current LMH/LMDh cars.

I personally like the looks of the 60s cars (can’t stop taking photos of them), but enjoy driving the 2016 LMP1 cars, especially the Porsche.

Nearly clearing the pit lane at Willow Springs while doing a barrel roll in the process, but why did the car stop rolling in the air like this and then orient itself upright after entering the pits?

This is one of my biggest stunts in the game, but I am so confused as to why it stopped barrel rolling midair as it flew over the pits. I have never seen this happen in my life. Can anyone explain this pit lane behavior if you have any details? I searched the web for answers, but to no avail.

Some basic (potential) submissions for the 10th Anniversary Photo Contest

I’m in need for some inspiration for unedited photos, LOL. Any ideas for how I can take better unedited photos for contests?

R35 GT-R photo had to be edited to include some blur since the in-game motion blur slider wasn’t working for some reason; it was inspired by one of the first “Tap to Start” screens ever, back in 2016.

All the LMH/LMDh cars following the new 992 Turbo S Safety Car!

If anyone is wondering how I have all these cars in this photo, I used a photo editor to merge three Scapes Photos into one, involving all five of the new cars of the update (4 LMH/LMDh, 1 safety car) and one LMH car that was alone until version 1.70, but what I found weird after taking the photo with the safety car is that the safety car didn’t have its top lights on while leading the field; does anyone know if you can toggle them, and if so, how?

My iteration of a hypothetical modern Honda “NSX-R Tribute”

I spent months looking all over Brand Central for the 2017 NSX after seeing it everywhere across the game, including cutscenes and Scapes curations, and then I had someone help me find it. Turns out it was listed under Honda instead of Acura (which, for some reason, is not in the game) this whole time!

Once I tracked it down, instead of complaining about how it’s a Honda (I’m from the U.S., by the way, so I expected it to be an Acura because of how it was sold here, and because previous games had Acuras in their rosters)*, I wanted to make a modern tribute to the original 1992 NSX-R. I opted for a clean, OEM+ look with subtle performance to match, complete with a Championship White paint job and “red emblems” similar to the original, rather than an over-the-top race build.

Let me know what you think.

*6/8 Edit: Added context for why I thought it would be an Acura

If McLaren is leaving the game at the end of the month, is there a similar existing car that is likely to replace the 720S in Advanced Class lesson 3: High Speed, Hard Braking?

I have a feeling that the ATS GT might be a good candidate, or perhaps the 2017 Ford GT, though target times might need to be tweaked to make it possible. But share what car you think can replace the McLaren 720S in this scenario!

Two completely different genres posted on a third niche that doesn’t compare to the two at all

The two games this guy posted are open world games of different genres, while the sub he posted this in is for a closed circuit racing game available on mobile devices.

Subscribing now or within the beginning of June, regarding the McLaren F1 LM, and having to cancel the subscription after the month is over

I know that anyone that has been a subscriber before will get the F1 LM at the end of June, but if I subscribe now or sometime in June, will I be able to join this party that will receive the car, and is there a place to not renew the subscription after 1 month has passed, and will we really own the car after the end of June rather than simply rent it? I just want to be able to take the F1 LM for one last spin before it, along with the other McLarens, go. >!And by one last spin, I meant that I did drive it in a challenge event once, and that was the only time I was able to experience it.!<

Thank you all so much in advance!

Thought I would see for myself what it’s like to get a GUARANTEED tier 5 import car by filling up that bar completely. This is a response to an existing post made by another user.

Would not recommend doing this for the Premium tab if you have half of all the tier 5 import cars in the game already, as there are a bunch of them listed there, and chances of getting a duplicate seem to increase the more unique T5 cars you have.

u/Desperate-Revenue-75 asked about the tier 5 guarantee gauge, so I tested it myself for them to see what happens.

McLaren F1 or Bugatti Veyron: Which one do you consider to be the first hypercar?

I’m seeing debates on which of these two is the first hypercar almost everywhere due to performance and other variables that differ from supercars, so I want to have this settled for the GT7 community. These two cars have reached insane top speeds in their times, but I’ve heard the F1 is still the fastest car with a naturally aspirated (NA) engine, with a top speed of 240.1 mph (386.4 km/h) set in 1998. Yes, there are cars that surpassed the F1’s top speed in the 2000s and later, but those cars required assistance from forced induction to achieve it, with a notorious example coming from Bugatti. Do you think future NA hypercars could dethrone it eventually?

I finally gave in and bought the ultimate road car: the McLaren F1 for Cr. 20,000,000.

More expensive than the 1995 F1 GTR, but definitely worth it since it is featured in an Extra Menu. Gonna need more space in my garage as well as a lot of credits in preparation for the other colors to complete the collection! It is perhaps my most expensive road car yet.

In the meantime, though, what other 90s supercars should I put it next to in Scapes?
