Bored of GT7? Three New Custom Races Every Weekday

[Theufcveteran]

Taycan turbo was a handful to drive during the daily race.

Yeah it’s a bit unwieldy, quite a bit of understeer, but lots of power. With a lot of sharp turns I don’t think it’d feel very good to drive. I tried to go for a track where it’d lean into the attributes of the car, here, it being an EV, while also being a track that hadn’t been picked too recently for the daily races.

today allows me to use one of my go to road car since it fits the 625pp race automatically

The events for the 13th of November are up!

Today’s events:

• Lancia’s legends at Autodrome Lago Maggiore

• A 625 PP Super Sports car race at Kyoto Driving Park - Yamagiwa

• 35 laps of Watkins Glen in the Tomahawk X. You will be tested. One slight error and you’ll be facing the other direction. Find consistency in the chaos.

I have a question.

It's as much aimed at the community as it is at OP.

I've had to restrict my Power to meet the PP requirements for the race. Now I have to do the 96% default Custom Race standard for this series, will I calculate 96 percent of whatever my Restrictor is set at?

I hope that makes sense.
Obviously I'm only using the Power Restrictor, not ECU.

I didn’t consider that possibility. If you are already restricting your power then I would drop it by a further 4%, as the AI effectively drops below the PP limit when they go to 97% throttle.

So if you’re already at 96% to meet the limit then I’d drop it to either 94% or 92%. The scaling may mean that 4% below 96% is more of a relative BHP drop compared to 4% below 100% but that’s just a guess.

If you find 4% below your current reduced percentage is too slow then maybe give 2% below the current percentage a try.

There won't be any races today, my apologies. I'm just... not feeling up to it today. One of those days, if you get me. Will have races up tomorrow and I'll try and plan out the week ahead over the weekend.

I think I woke up too late last Friday and again had that bleh feeling. It’s not that I don’t like doing it, but I’m not helping myself with having to come up events sometimes not long after I wake up (and if it’s beyond the scheduled time then it’s even worse).

Next week’s events are all planned out. Only thing to add is the weather settings. No more missing days, staying on top of it fully now.

@Theufcveteran I don't think you need to be too hard on yourself. So far, you've given the community a whole load of content to sink our teeth into.

You shouldn't worry.
