Also, two different approaches to tuning gearing:

More "traditional"


More "glitch"

Jess,, as I at these photos of your Play Station set up I note it is very much like my own. As dischevelled and cluttered as it may be to others,, my area is much the same as yours. Everything has it's function and/or purpose. IF they're not there I want them because I find myself missing them which bothers me more than the clutter. I want my 'stuff' close at hand. I am and have always been very envious of those who can have their area sanitary, no clutter,, having nothing in a persons visual area other than the wheel and monitor, nothing to clutter our mind surely is much better than all the clutter I and you look at in our PlayStation areas but here's the deal,, every time I've cleaned things up and made it sanitary,, for some reason in a very short period of time all "MY STUFF" returns to those places they've always been. I give up, left my stuff where it belongs and focus instead on the monitor. Coffee cup is rite there, ash tray is rite there, paper and pen, old notes on set ups are rite there, meds and pain relief topicals are - rite there. Photos of my Wife and I in our 30's and 40's on the wall, car show trophys and other misc. memorabilia are rite there within my visual area. Bottom line, not all of us can have the structure a lot of folks have the discipline to exercise. 👍 👍 😎

Last Wednesday was some of the best racing I've done since I got GT Sport.
I just did a video of the race at the Glen.
I didn't win but I (think) didn't suck.

Well done, Quebeker! Good recovery. It shows the importance of being on the driving line and what can happen when you aren't.

I can't say that I have seen views like this in GT videos before. There were a number of cockpit views and I don't see them without manual control and cycling through different views.

The only video that I made that got a hit was one with music in it. Don't know why because it is in the game.

 

[MasterGT]

Interesting. I'm not sure why Sephora would want to advertise on GT Planet. 😁

Thank you sir.

That replay is the "Music replay" option.
With the music muted as I don't like any of the choices offered.

The music I added are mashups as those usually slip through the copyright cracks.
;-)

Because they know most of us have a wife or girlfriend who puts up with our little time consuming hobby and need some forgiveness once in a while?

'Helf'
Since I have no clue how I activated "broadcast mode" how does one turn it off without using one's personality?

Keep the greasy side down

Maybe Wednesday will be my excuse to build out that GTO I have that I fubared the build for my other race league. 🤔

You know what I need, Focus. Yeah, that's it!

 

[Luiz Frota]

RACE 2) @ NORDSCHLEIFE

600PP EUROPEAN ROAD CARS
ANY SPORT TIRE

Would a US company car that was sold in Europe and has the steering wheel on the right count as a European car?

 

[SnakeEyes427]

Maybe it's just me however, I'm going to stop being nice if I keep getting bummed off track. Just a warning ⚠️

 

[coryclifford]

I’m thinking about Sunday a little. A theme, as in Historic Sports Car Masters. 580 pp limit. Sport tires. 1989 and older. Including race cars.

Maybe.

Edited? So did I see race cars at one point? I was just going to point out that the rules would allow neutered 787s but not engine swaps. I'm glad that got fixed.
