Hello! Welcome to Gran Turismo Duel of the Week! This is a thread concept started by @Cowboy all the way back around the start of GT6. Over the years, control eventually found it's way to me and we're now in our third edition. This is the first time we're jumping to another game, so it'll be a learning experience for now. GT Sport is the next chapter of the series and we're just about ready to get started after GT6's servers shut down and all of these GT Sport content updates! If you're reading this as a new contributor, or if you're a regular needing to brush up on some info, this info below will give you the rundown on how this thread works.
At the beginning of every week, (Mondays usually, but sometimes Wednesdays if I'm busy) two or more cars are chosen in a new post to go head to head in the game. It isn't a usual competition though, the winner of each week is decided by your votes. Now, how you vote varies from person to person. It can either be which car is more competitive in sport mode, which one has the faster time in the weekly time trials, which one sounds or looks better and much more.
At the end of each week, votes are counted up, just make your vote is easy to read, and be sure to explain your reasoning too.
If you're wondering what we mean by time trials, every week my good compatriot and thread co-host @ThrasherDBS hosts time trials and drift trials for the cars featured in the duel, sometimes maybe even a special challenge or two. (You'll just have to see what he cooks up in the oven!) After the week concludes, he will post the results of the time trials and tag everyone who participated.
So, welcome to Gran Turismo Sport Duel of the Week! If you're still unsure of what to post, just float around for a week or two and observe what the regulars do and post, you'll get up to speed eventually!
This thread may not look like much now, but we've just started construction. Pretty soon this thread will be on par with GT6's thread

At least it seems like people are eager to get going! The duels start on Monday if you're wondering. This thread and the last thread both had Week #0 reserved for planning.
