I am having a problem receiving the 370Z Tuned Car (GT Academy) 08. It showed up in "gifts" but I am not able to add it to my cars. When I click on it I am asked "do you want to add to you items list". I click yes but nothing happens. It just stays in my "receive" box.
I received all the other cars from the Academy without problem but this one is hung up. Does anyone have an idea about how to fix?

O.k sorry to read that. I have read about cars "hanging up" in the gift box. It has been reported here on gtplanet a few times. The reported fix was as I stated, but since you reloaded your save? It might be too late
.?Can you still send and receive anything? Or could you reload that data from your PS3, then try to receive a gift? Sorry, I'm trying to think what might help your situation.

Sorry if this is stating the obvious as you clearly have the other cars, but don't forget once you accept the gift, there is no star by the delivery truck to show a car is waiting (pretty sure there usually is?) but if you click it, it's there.
That confused me with the Leaf but I guess you got it then.
As for the latest (and last?) seasonal, I just noticed time was nearly up and hadn't tried it so had a quick blast at Toscana, was surprised at how hard it seems, I guess I don't like the track (too many blind crests and "lightness" for me) but I was nowhere near gold time with a stock car (power limited) after about 6 laps. Perhaps I am just impatient.
I guess it needs tuning, which is a shame as I have little interest in fine-tuning cars in GT5 (I like the more basic MOAR POWAH! approach at times but this can backfire!), though some people have been getting sub-2 minute times with a stock set-up, which is impressive. Oh well, it's about to time out

It was a somewhat tricky track to learn, with several spots that could be taken flat-out but had to be taken correctly to do so as well as a couple of complex groups of corners, and of course the ever-present blind crests. There were a couple of spots where after I figured them out I gained well over a second in one big chunk. Once I learned it I did come to like it a lot, shame I can't say the same for the car. I managed a 1:54.8 in the stock car after a fair bit of practice which I'm reasonably happy with.
So far the only GTA seasonal event I've personally needed to modify anything other than changing the already available settings to win was the Tokyo race a couple weeks ago which I could only manage second before buying things(and I cleared that after it expired so I didn't get the prize ticket). I'm trying to do them all at stock if I can. This TT would have probably given me fits if I had tried it at the last minute though. It took a lot longer than I expected to get sorted, and that first session I only reached :57. Still a hell of a lot easier than the race was for me.

New event is up. Quickly golded the TT and won the race first time around. Easy stuff. Put the car on share. GTP_CargoRat, no blank friend requests, they will be ignored and deleted. Also, my car has no weight reduction or engine stage tuning so if you need those modifactions to gold the TT or win the race, look elsewhere. Peace.

I want to thank you for posting your settings for these Academy Seasonal's. They've been most helpful.
Question on the transmission settings. I couldn't get them to work. I've tried several tricks to set 'em up. Was this before the oil change?
Ran Spa with your settings before the 3 engine updates and won easily.
Thank You Again.

I thought it was hard, but not as hard as SV.
Without the tunes posted here I would never have beaten the last few, so thanks to all that post tunes.

I'm really surprised people are saying it took them a long time. I'm by no means good at GT5, but completely stock I managed to win the race in one go and the TT golded in 5 laps

The latest TT for the GTR Tuned car actually has the most fun track ever. The first long right double curve then the left climb are so much fun, the blind corners, the last 3 corners with deep braking from high speed, they scream perfection. I am sure ordinary driver would able to gold it even with SM tires. I had few laps with per usual bone stock Tuned GTR and no aids, just set the BB 9/7, fit CS tires, yes comfort tires. After 4 laps, I have 2:01.4xx, that would be Bronze time, but the surprise is in the joy of driving the car with the said tires. Very predictable understeer and smooth oversteer, I almost can't believe how fast this car even with low grip tires like CS.
By the way my time with SS tires is 1:53.xxx and I left it there then decided to stick with CS for further hot lapping, it's sheer joy.

Yeah, I must say, this car is really fantastic. It was a joy to drive, even when the TT was giving me some trouble. The car is very solid and goes where you want it to at good speeds.
