Got this one. So I assume most road cars have this part as well.
 
What the hell is up with circuit experience at Deep Forest??

The Audi just doesn't feel planted. I'm barely hanging on doing the sectors, I don't know if I can even do the whole lap with that damn car.
 
Aside from golding Spa today in circuit experience, I have also golded the shorter Kyoto track and Deep Forest. I'm working on High Speed Ring right now.

With that said, the Deep Forest race is tried my sanity. God, I hate how tailhappy the R8 LMS is, even with tcs on; it still gives way a bit. I can't believe I even finished this, let alone golding the events. The second section especially took over an hour to gold, probably would've been fine if they gave me a less slidy car.

and High Speed Ring is another pain with PD for some reason having me use a Zonda R on this track. :grumpy:

Update: I finally golded the full lap for High Speed Ring. It was difficult, but nothing compared to Deep Forests' 2nd section.

I gave up on that Deep Forest 2nd sector, until they introduced the reward for all golds. Somehow it's more difficult than the full lap. That car does not like changing direction. With a bit of patience, I eventually got it.
Okay, glad to know I wasn't the only one. I spent so much more time on that second sector than on the actual lap myself, took me an hour and a half to gold.
 
The Alsace endurance is a lot of fun in a super small car like the Honda S800. All about keeping speed up and keeping in range of the lead pack until it pits. Shame the AI’s pace falls off after half way (maybe intentionally), It’d been fun to keep battling the 300SL even though I was about as fast as it was but way better on fuel.

I need help getting the 800pp at Daytona right. I tried it and my best result is a second place 13 seconds behind Portilla. Others are stopping twice. Him and me are stopping once. When i get to second place he is 20 seconds ahead of everyone else. I am gaining but just slowly. Any tips for cars? Maybe a no stop car, because i dont change tires. Racing hard all the way. Thanks!

Edit: I am in the CLK-LM 98, he is in a Viper SRT GT3R 15.

Something I think many people forget when talking about the economy in this game is that all numbers given assume we win every single race. Those who prefer a proper challenge will not be finishing first every time, and will receive significantly less money for the higher challenge.

Ideally the higher difficulty settings (if they even make a difference) would balance this out, but instead there is no increase in pay for a higher challenge, only a potential decrease for not finishing first.

Yeah, realy struggled to get gold in this sector 2, I used traction control on 1 but you still have to find proper line and minimalize steering movement, this car is lethal (to be honest probably very bad default setup also Gt7 physic for some cars could get little adjustment)

I noticed something a while ago and only came up against it again the other night. The little onscreen marker when you pass a car shows some epic 3-spokes which aren't in the game, and the car in the race has the standard wheels. Meh.

Work Ryver S003h?

We hope that these unreleased wheels were not removed due to "licensing issues" but will be added in a future update.

The current wheel lineup for GT7 is not bad, but more wheels would make our cars look even more unique.
Especially since not a single tri spoke design like this wheel is available in the current version...

I miss the e spoke wheels! In previous GTs that had them I put them on loads of my cars! 😂

It doesn't feel like a proper race car for me. It floats on corners, way different from other Gr. 3 cars. TC doesn't help that much too.
 
Coincidentally, I literally just finished my race with no rain.

It got dark with a very, very, very light "rain" on lap 6 for about 1 minute and then poof, no rain at all. Looking at the weather radar I saw only one big cloud over the circuit (the one at lap 6) and the rest of the clouds went way above.

Last night I I did 2 laps, skies completely clear and blue. Radar all clear. Go into pits and funnily enough rain from nowhere. Stupid.
 
You can lap everyone in the Megane. I failed miserably on my first attempt with the Cayman. I’ll check the Atenza 👌
Roger. My only issue with the Megane is it's FWD (right?).

I wish we could get paid again for the enduro races... I rather enjoyed that one.

Agree with both of you as I've put in other threads. That Audi Gr3 car is complete garbage and that sector 2 is the worst.

I golded S1 easy. Struggled with S2 for probably half an hour, with only a silver. Skipped it, golded S3 easy and golded the lap after a few attempts. Went back to S2 and was just ridiculous. Eventually I put on ALL the aids, got gold, and I don't even feel guilty about it.

ColinNZ, there is a reward for golds... big time payout.

And I thought the Zonda was great. Never had an issue driving it. My only issue with HSR was in order to gold S3 was you had to be like inches away from the wall on that last left. Divebomb too low, don't make the time; go a bit too high and touch the wall. Anyway, after that CE I put the Zonda on my to-buy list!
 
I find Catalunya sector 3 also very hard... first obviously this part of the track is absolutely terrible, and I never understood how to go around that chicane before the last corner to the straight line. I probably spent already 1 hour on that sector only.

The Huracan is a pretty good car though.
 
They actually upgraded the shadows cast by your car's headlight in an update, don't know what though. They now look solid and don't jump all over the place like at launch. Just tested and retested. (PS5 here)

edit: seems like it depends on the amount of cars on track, understandable
