Started doing Le Mans WTC money grind recently, I usually run over (ie., 7 laps) as I use VR and have no way of seeing the gaps.

Today decided to try waiting at end of lap 6 to cross close to 30min.

I parked near end of last straight so I can check rear view mirrors, and started moving around 29:50. I did not see any car in my rear view, got the win, but the end summary shows two cars within 5 seconds of my time, genuinely scary.

On replay it showed two cars went into pit (bad AI?)

So my question is the game obviously registered their time while they are pitted, could they have WON while in pit? The 2nd place was just 2 second behind my time.

I bought GT7 on PS5 a few months back when it went on sale. After 10 hours of racing with controller, got the itch and watched lots of YouTube vids and bought RS50 + LC pedals and wheel stand. Now another 40 hours in, the itch is back plus some back pain and I’m thinking about profile rig. (looking at GT1 Evo)

The thing is I have no plan of moving to PC, so will most likely either just keep playing GT or get some other simracing games on PS.

From what I’ve seen here, “serious” simracing looks to on PC, and console has a lot of limitation on accessories, how common is it to invest into full rig for console-only racing?
