Are you excited for this update?

Are you excited for this update?

I’ve always been into cars like Honda Civic and Accord coupes and sedans that have that classic Fast & Furious vibe, along with Volkswagen Jettas. I’m also really into 3rd-generation Camaros and Trans Ams, especially cars like the Firehawk. Basically, I’m drawn to the kinds of cars that everyday people could realistically buy and then customize, modify, and soup up to make their own. I guess 2 of these cars could be like that...Whats your thoughts on this update?

After 4 years, i tried the livery editor

As the title suggests. I’m a lazy guy, i’ll be honest about that. Using community-liveries has been my go-to since release. At last, i decided to give it a shot. Inspired by the Piet Mondrian artwork, and an hommage to the car i race irl (not a GT3R, obviously).
Any feedback or advice would be greatly appreciated, considering this is my first ever livery.
For those interested, the livery is available to download under the title “Piet Mondrian Art Car Concept” by user Piekepoep.

Finally got the F40

I know most of you already have this by CL50 but this was one I was looking forward to. I took a year or so break from playing this game so I missed out on all the times it was in legends but it’s finally my newest addition.

What is your favorite acquisition from the legends shop and what should I be keeping an eye out for next? 30m for a car just seems out of reach at this point.

Price Increases for the Ferrari F40 & F50 (currently available as Special Picks with low double digit year mileage) but below market value.

PD announced back in March, in cooperation with Hagerty, that they were going to be adjusting prices for some of the cars available in the LCD based on current market values starting in June:

https://www.gran-turismo.com/us/gt7/news/00_8497133.html

So while a price increase was certainly expected for most of the cars by Ferrari, thankfully the increase was very small compared to some of their real world values based on the auction results from just this past week:

https://www.reddit.com/r/granturismo/s/TdW08T0xS8

The F40 only went up by less than 10% from 3.1m credits to 3.4m credits (most recent auction result was $8.4m.)

The F50 only went up by about 5% from 4.45m credits to 4.7m (most recent auction result was $14.6m 😳)

These increases were applied before these latest auctions… so might want to grab them when you can before PD decides the increase wasn’t nearly enough to represent IRL values.

Also, as an added incentive, both of these cars are currently available as Special Picks with very low double digit mileage based on their production years.

The F50 also comes in a very rare original livery, Argento Nurburgring 😎

Lads i need your help, i'm falling behind my peers in pace. At B, can't keep up. Analyse this quali lap for me and pinpoint the exact errors

And also how to fix. I looked at the telemetry and have a vague idea, but maybe direct feedback would help more.

I thought we had til the end of the month to watch the videos for the Viewers campaign?

The usual box in the top right isnt showing it and when I go into Gran Turismo there's nothing saying anything about the reward cars.

So, this bot somehow decided to sacrifice himself

It's a standard ingame bot, not Sophy, decided that he thinks independently now, and that I don't deserve to finish the race, and that he will gladly sacrifice himself for this sabotage

Anything similar happened to you?

1st place and DR drops?

How? Genuinely curious. My DR’s rank D so I’m clearly not good, but lately I’ve had my DR drop almost every race no matter how well I do. Sometimes I’ll climb 6+ positions and still come out dropping, when everyone else around me on the board increases. I thought for sure taking a win would finally give me an increase. Is there something different I should be doing?

50mil baby!

After grinding all summer and trying to minimize spending, I think it’s time to spend some of these hard earned credits

What is it that I am not getting with WTC 600 Tokyo Express Way?

This week's weekly challenge: World Touring 600 Tokyo Express Way.

This race is just next level difficulty for me for some reason.
I realized that I need at least 550+HP with upgraded turbo to keep up on the straight line, but I have tried several cars(Nissan GTR, Ford GT, Supra, etc) with that much HP, they just can't turn: once I get to the curvy part of the road, I need to slow down significantly otherwise the car understeers straight into walls.

Before I waste another 100k+ credits trying out different upgrades, I want to check here to see if there is anything I am doing obviously wrong.

I read somewhere there is a wall riding strategy, but for some reason, as soon as I touch any wall, all the other cars just fly pass me. Also I have tried different tuning methods to try to get rid of understeering.

Edit: I figured out the techniques I was missing, inspired by some replies in this post. I won the race using exact the same car set up I had before. But here is what I was missing:

  1. Only wall-ride the first wall out of the long straight (and go full throttle at it, I was slowing down before hitting the wall which defeats the whole point), don't rely on wall ride for the rest.
  2. Turn in early to counter the understeer. What's special about this track is that apexes are often blocked by the walls, if I turn after I see the apex and that's already too late. Always try to hug the inside wall of those curves. Also then you end up on the dryer part of the road which makes the turns easier
  3. Don't give up if the first guy (the blue Honda guy) is way ahead of you at the start. That guy will make 2 pit stops so if I make 1, I will catch up onto him at his second pit stop (after lap 10)

Other driver suggested I drive smarter next time

And I know my retaliation looks a little nuclear, I wanted to just drive away and actually race but I mean T1 he smashes into me again and in that second I thought he was trying to spin me and I decided that was enough.

He then made it his mission to target and crash me till I gave up and parked it in the pits where he swapped to the chat to make sure I know I suck and said “maybe next time you’ll drive smarter”

Idfk man
