tuning it make a car fit with your driving style better.
Like on Daily C this week certain setup can allow certain cars to go faster or even make the meta car much faster than the untuned meta car.
I take issue with out many off the BOP diffs are tuned TBH. They are tuned way to aggresive for me.

This post gave me flashbacks from the good old days of playing Tourist Trophy on the PS2. Back in the day when I was still racing on 2-wheels (in real life
) I used to post on a forum and we had a dedicated thread to crazy pics from the game. There were a good several spots on various track you could catch some nice air (intentionally). Had to go back and find that old forum and unearth these couple I miss this game so much, I wish PD would make a current gen incarnation of it. We had so much fun on this back then.

I do think there's a bit of a sheep effect at the top levels of the leaderboard sometimes. That being said, the "balance" here is pretty insulting to some of the cars. It's just sad to go from the M3 that handles like a dream, to some of the cars that need begging and pleading just to turn a corner, like it's still GT4 or something. And it's not like they get huge speed boosts to make up for it!

OMG I could never race like that. Since I started GT7 I come to love the radar and the amount of awareness it gives you. In VR I would be a huge hazard 😂

You also have the radar in VR, it's very helpful for blind spots

NSX is actually handles everything but the first high speed sequence pretty well.
its just doesnt have good gearing for the straights.
This round would be so much cooler if they allowed us to tune everything while maintains their set HP and weight.
I am still slightly faster with the M3 but I am not fast. 2:05.265 after about 60 miles in various cars.

Ended up a whopping 9 tenths faster in the BMW than any of the other car choices, still need to try the F40, SLR Mclaren and the Ford GT, but it's not likely they'll be topping that. It's a bit of a shame because some of the other cars have handling that better fits my driving style but the M3 seems to generate laptime without it being an incredible lap.
2:03.727 in the end.
The LFA, Supra and Diablo have good characteristics but fall down in some regard, for example the Supra feels like the M3 with worse traction.

You know I'm not too sure what to type about Rd.2 other than I was pretty nervous about driving it fast and the fact that 50% of the video below is just me being overtaken. At least I'm glad that it's over...
5 laps is a mixture of being fun and intense, while also being unfair and having that "rushed" feeling.

Congrats for the win! I had a couple of good times close to dropshot G but he managed. Goose gained time on these little battles. I made a couple mistakes on lap 4 and Goose took the 4th place for 140 points I think. I got 134 points. It is my first WS in GT1 as an AS. So far I had clean lobbies which is really appreciated. Good to see you there.

They couldn't have gotten it more wrong...And yet it still sounds better than the current V6 GT.
I wonder if that's the game's stock exhaust that's messed up, or if it's got a modded exhaust for this tuned race and that's making it sound off.

It does seem that because I've dropped some positions after not doing the second round, I'm now just barely out of gold range for my ranking within the USA and North America. Hopefully I'll be able to get back into it, as that'd be over 4m credits to be won!
EDIT: I also did some free practice in the E92 M3 for the next round at Trial Mountain. Not sure how PD tuned this thing, but it really is nice to drive. Doesn't feel like there's much oversteer nor wheelspin, if any.

Yea, in the GT-One it’s a little crammed in if I don’t get my seat position to set pretty far back. Was similarly cramped in the R92CP. The RA-272 and most cars it’s pretty easy to see and keep an eye on.
One thing to remember is actual VR FOV is a lot bigger and rounder than the video capture FOV. I can see a lot more without moving my head than the videos show.
It’s definitely a unique challenge to race in VR but it comes with a lot of benefits.

Setting similar times with the BMW and the LFA here. LFA is a bit squirrel-y in second gear but it feels much smoother overall.
Anyone notice any benefit to short shifting the BMW?

Mistah_MCA's guide was helpful as ever. Main tips to take away:
1. +3 BB for the BMW. Dunno if the same helps the LFA. After trying this, I went faster in the BMW over the LFA at 0 BB. I have not tried the LFA with +3 BB though.
2. For those using manual, use second gear only to rotate the car, not to accelerate. At least in the BMW.

Boy do I suck at Trial Mountain 😂 Tried a couple of different cars and the Ford will be my choice. Only ran a couple of laps per car and the Ford and Ferrari were the cars I liked most but I'm way slower with the F40.
Would probably be faster with the BMW but gotta bring some different color into the mix 😅
