Ladies and gentlemen, please allow me to introduce myself. I’m Zo, and I’ve been an avid lover of GT since having a go on a pre-launch demo for the very first game. However, despite racing on line for absolutely yonks, organising competitions across different versions of GT and PCars2, I haven’t yet raced people at all on GT7.


Many of my old racing buddies have spent little time on GT7, I understand, and so, I would like to introduce you to a series of racing using motors which can be grabbed for a tiny number of credits. Despite their inexpensive nature, they are all lovely to drive, and lend themselves nicely to close, fun racing.

Those cars are…

6th January 2025, Honda S660 ‘15 at Alsace.

13th January, Toyota S-FR ‘15, at Trial Mountain.

20th January, Ford Mustang ‘15, at Grand Valley.

27th January, Nissan Fairlady Z33 ‘07, at Lago Maggiore GP.

3rd February, (because we will have a few credits by now) BMW M3 ‘03, at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta.


The cars will always be stock and running on CS tyres. But don’t panic, the weather will never be anything other than pleasant, and degradation will be switched off.


The racing will be organised like this…

Quarter of an hour qualifying.

Fastest first, quarter of an hour race.

Reverse grid twenty-five minute race.

Reverse grid thirty minute race.

The end.

Scoring will be a very simple system, 16 points for first, 15 for second, etc. Bonus point for pole position, bonus point for fastest lap.
 
I'm letting my multi-play subscription lapse but it runs to Feb, so might join you for a race or two.
 
You know my problem @Zolon32, a lack of both the key ingredients, GT7 and PS Plus. A PS5 Pro and a VR2 headset would help too. 🙂

If I had a spare £130 I'd probably be there.
 
Hello everyone
I would love to race whit you guys again.
Have had gt7 for a while but haven't had so much time for it. I am not that fast like you guys but always fun with some real race.

Well fellas, you're all guys I've raced with in the past. Anyone still at it?

If I remember right we did some racing testing on Grand Valley but there was only 3 or 4 drivers.
I think I could join this.
 
5 Days to go have you got yourself Ready @Zolon32 .... I will keep a eye out on progress 🤪
Sure it will pick up once your going i will send everyone here ! Good luck
@Zolon32 sounds good, love road cars on sports tyres! I'm usaully busy on mondays but am available on the 6th so will join yous then
Thanks fellas. Sorry for the tardy response, I'm just useless. Anyway, let's hope that something develops from this. I'm quite looking forward to sharing the track with humans. Been a while.
 
Hi @Zolon32 I’ve just got into GT7 myself and would love to race with you guys if the offer is open? Attached is my rig. DR C, SR S.
You will be more than welcome MrGiGi. If you send me a friends request that'll get you in. (I'll be honest, I have considered running an open room tonight, to see who the event attracts, and I'm open to comments regarding this.)

Cheers, Zo.

Thanks mate. I’ve sent a friend request via the PS App. I’m new to online gaming so I’m hoping it worked ok.

Will the race be in the lobby to find or is there a specific invite / link to follow?

Thanks again
George
