Thank, Homie.

And heard it was a great day. 👍

It’s Luiz, Pete, Al, Greg, Eric.
I probably got that wrong, because I can’t remember what someone said two minutes ago because this new controller is making me laugh.
 
Yes, it was a wonderful meetup of great Geezer friends yesterday in Kissimmee FL! The impetus for this was Luiz’s trip to Orlando, and then Pete decided to fly in from North Carolina. Al and Greg live in Tampa/St. Pete area, and picked up Pete from his hotel and drove to Kissimmee to Sickies Garage Burgers & Brews just outside Disney World. It was an hour and 15 minute drive for me to get there from The Villages. What a great time, enjoyed every second of it.

Cory had it right, L-R Luiz, Pete, Al, Greg (cheeves1956), and Eric.

Obviously I wasn't there with the guys but I wish I could have been. Anyway this is a photo of me aboard my Son's Triumph Storm taken this October. No,, in spite of his prompting me tIo do so I did not ride it for fear I'd mess up and lay iot over.

"There’s a known bug with the PS4 version of GT7 running on a PS5. The only solution is to play the PS5 version." LOGI_rich
 
The solution is that I need to install the PS5 version on the PS5. There is a known PS4 bug that they haven't fixed yet.

I do have the PS5 disc in my original metal case, but the PS5 doesn't come with a drive, so I either have to re-buy GT7 to get the PS5 downloaded version on its own or buy the extra disc drive.
 
It’s pretty much a fancy Civic Type R, which is also pretty bad ass. Integra was typically about an inch longer wheelbase and, uh, more nice and 1.8 liter opposed to 1.6 liter. But Honda then made the turbo engine so nevermind two engines, or two chassis.

Back when it was HPD. I raced against the guys on the team. They were developing the CVT transmission in a Civic HX. Which is now in my HR-V.

Thanks go out to everyone who suggested ways of installing the disc version of GT7 on the Pro. However...

"Similar to the digital edition PS5, you aren’t able to attach an external disk drive to a base PS5 model."

We must use their PS5 disc parts. An article released a few days ago describing how to install their drive also made no mention about using external drives. It's as if SONY doesn't want us to use external USB drives or something. Imagine that.

It sounds like SACD all over again. I spent $2k on a 35 pound paperweight super audio CD player, that does sound nice, but the format and music catalog pretty much died.

Sony is nice, but, maybe too ahead of themselves, unless you hand them your money.

In reality, this should work, but probably won’t.

Master, the disc drive upgrade is only US$ 80.00, and it is a very simple install and looks like it was made that way from day one (which it should have been). You will no doubt enjoy this machine for many years to come, so having the benefit of the integrated disc drive should be a no brainer. Plus, it widens the base for those using the Pro in its vertical orientation, adding stability.
