Honesty though PD really should be able to drop a quick update with a day of programming that would add a Gr.4, Gr.3, Gr.2 and Gr.1 endurance race to every single important circuit in the game (excluding obvious ones like SSRX and Broad Bean).

That probably should have been in the game at launch.

Well at least RWD cars are actually controllable now so that’s neat. Expands the viable car pool by quite a bit.

Yup, it's still possible to Tomahawk your way through the Tokyo Expressway event. You just have to alter your settings a little.
I originally tried following someone's setup on Youtube, but that didn't quite work on my screen, but I made some slight alterations to the gearing and got under 600pp. Huzah, Porsche 550 Spyder; here I come!
 
Discovered this evening that GT7 language censorship is harsher than GTS was. My made up liveries often feature SMD Racing logos. SMD is Stormy Monday Design, which is the name I use if I'm doing design work, but GT7 has decided that it stands for something else, something rude, and refuses to let me save either Title or Description for a livery featuring SMD. Bizarrely, S.M.D. is, apparently, fine.

SMD is shorthand for telling someone to, you know, suck the big one.

So that's understandable.

It's a shame that so many people are negative about content updates. When the game economy got nerfed that at least made sense to be annoyed at.
As far as I know the latest update hasn't removed anything (besides some bugs and such of course), and the stuff it's given us is completely free too. If this was almost any other racing franchise we'd likely have to pay for each car as DLC.
Perhaps the life cycle of GT Sport has spoilt some of us into taking the updates we had for granted. Just remember that this is only the beginning.

I'm okay with this update. I was expecting a server maintenance and we got some new cars and a physics update (or patch).

It's not some big, hyped up new season or anything but a nice little content update. For all we know, we'll get another one in two or three weeks. Hopefully it will include a track and lobby fixes.
 
You can't change the wheels on this Spyder but you can do this to the stock ones at least 😀

GTS used to censor FK2 and MR2 😂

Shhhhh! You can’t say things like that on here! We’re you not around for the massive GTS debate on whether the DLC was truly free?! 😂
 
OK - help me out here. Am I going crazy or is something not right with ABS, TCS and rain physics?

Is ABS not simulated at all? It feels so tbh.

I notice a difference between TCS 0 and 1, but 1 to 5? Barely if at all.

And are rain physics serioulsy random overall? Using ACC as a reference here I find everything relating to rain in GT7 completely unpredictable.
 
I just learned that for some reason only known to PD, buying a new body won't remove a wide body. From my viewpoint, buying a new body is a feature that's supposed to undo changes to the car that can't be undone otherwise, so that seems like a really, really stupid design choice to me. Thankfully it only concerned a Mini in my case, so I didn't end up wasting a ton of credits and could simply buy another one from the used car dealership. Had I done it to one of the more expensive legendary cars I would've been in for one hell of a rude awakening.

After the latest update, I noticed now there's a download button when viewing scape/race photos on GT website.

Is this new or it's already been there before?
Update 1.13:

Scapes

 - The 'Gassho-style Houses in Ainokura' and 'Cherry Blossoms at Night' locations have been added to the featured section of Scapes;
 - A slideshow option has been added to Auto-Demo.

This last one is maybe what you discover.
 
I got 330p4 fever
