Finished the Trial Mountain championship with my Camaro ZL1 1LE, it's nice that the game throws me a bone once in a while with a fast car that can beat the A.I. stock. I won the 2nd race despite hitting the wall in one of the later turns and I even got the clean race bonus.

I'm guessing that the bonus applies mostly to just hitting opponents now versus hitting walls, because the only time I lost the bonus in the past few races I did was when I was punting some A.I. cars in the Autopolis Japanese race with my R34 Skyline. I got a bit impatient with them blocking my line. hehe
 
Seems like there is a lot less grip on the track when it's night, overcast or some mountain is casting a shadow on the track. I don't remember that being part of GTsport. Certainly quite a bit more dynamic and it makes braking zones more unpredictable especially when the time of day and angle of the sun are changing throughout the race.
 
Besides the early Goodwood race GTplanet mentioned with a 50,000 payout, anyone found any other race that gives a better payout later in the game?
 
This seems to be the same set of used cars everyone has today. My bet is that the dealer changes a bit every 24hrs, and limited stock probably means it's the last day that car is available until it eventually rolls around again.
As for prizes, I don't know, I'm hoping a list shows up somewhere, especially for the fixed bronze/gold prizes for licenses and missions.

Deep Forest being a high speed track has grown on me. It's almost like the Indianapolis road track. A twisty infield and a huge high speed section. In F1 they would tune for maximum grip at a track like this but I expect in online races you will see a variety of setups. The final high speed turn can be thrilling to take flat out depending on the car you've got.

So... basically... no.

The final championship gives out the most money in one sitting, at 70k per race for the win plus a 150k championship bonus, so a maximum of 675k for about 75 minutes' racing if you can get the Clean Race bonuses. That's the most per minute.

There's a High Speed Ring race which is comparable to, but still worse than, Goodwood. There's also a Special Stage Route X race which should be similar.
 
Sorry for the question, just for the sake of curiosity: a part from GT Cafè, License and Missions is there something else to do in the GT Mode to achieve the 100%? I heard about a Hot Chili mode events, how can you unlock them and where can you find them? Is circuit experience needed for the game completion?

Wow. Bad news. Ive gotten an invite to buy the 1.35 million dollar Huayra' 13 THREE TIMES. It would be a shame to waste it.
 
Anyone else having issues with the ffb? I can’t feel the tyres spinning for example. Its making me use TC1 on powerful cars because i can’t feel the tyres properly.

CSW 2.5 + V3 have tried both fanalogic and fanatec modes on the drivehub.

I think someone mentioned to do the Sardegna Dirt Championship? With a payout of 65K/97.5k W/ bonus for around 4-5 minutes
Sardegna Dirt Champions - $65k ($97.5k with the bonus) / around 250 seconds

There isn't really a "100%". Or a "GT Mode".

All you need to complete the Cafe and get the Gold "Finale" trophy is to finish Menu Book 39 - and you only need your A-Licence for that. You'd need all the licences for the other Gold Trophy, "Hard Work Pays Off". You only need 15 Circuit Experiences for the highest Trophy available there, and after that it's just a case of driving 8,197 miles while online and taking a couple of photos and buying a couple of cars to hit the Platinum.

Anything else you do on top of that is just extra.
 
Hello. I have a invitation to buy a pagani. It expires in 10 days. Car costs 1.3m, so it's a lot of money. If I don't buy it, will I get another invitation to buy it again? If so anyone know how long before I get another invite?
Anyone knows the answer for this one? I also got invitation to buy Veneno and I don't want to grind to buy it now. Will we be able to buy it later? I hate those invitiations to be honest, it creats useless urgent feel to buy one car. I understand invitiations without time limit it could be cool but those one aren't good idea.
 
So there are far more things to spend credits on in GTS, more cars and the myriad of tuning and customisation parts, but the payouts for events are even stingier than GTS.

I think it's pretty safe to say then at this point the game is indeed very much geared around MTs and pushing you towards them, or spending a ridiculous amount of time grinding. What a shame.

If people continue to just hand wave this, say they're optional so it's OK, then Sony/PD are going to keep doing this. You gotta make your voices heard folks, or it's only going to get worse.

From what I read the invitation give you a reduced price on that specific car I have three Ferrari right now that I can buy at a reduced price… will I get them nope nor do I feel pressured… I wish it showed how much you were saving that would help me buy cars in that matter.. you can get the cars anytime you want.

Not from what I saw on a stream. They're invitational only, and the offer price is not reduced from the one listed in the dealership. Someone up there says they were invited to buy a Huaya for 1.35M, that's how much it's listed at in the dealership.

The manual confirms it.

You will need an invitation to purchase certain expensive cars. Invitations can be obtained by playing the game and from roulette tickets.

Seriously? What I see and a lot of peaople is that you can't buy certain cars without invitation...
 
irl pretentious dealerships would be like "he aint got it, we tried to sell it to them but they aint got it", i guess it's immersive somehow
That ✨genuineFerrari experience alright. Lock the LaFerrari until you've bought every other Ferrari :lol:
Someone posted changing colors and the display Supra had Hankook tyre branding.

In case anyone are wondering, 15k to remove the two plates in front and 7k to remove the rear one.

Wow, a car where you can remove the rear plate. Shame no other car I've tried has this option.
Woah, pepper emoji :eek:

Damn I watching a video last night also and he was explaining how the prices were different from his friends… thanks for the clearing that up…. I am also leaning towards what you were saying about those MTs…I’m going to give it a full month though before I make a final decision.
