GT7 Daily Race Discussion

[Chris30]

I'm always happy with a Gr4 race that bans the AWDs. The closest thing we'll get to touring cars. Hopefully it's not just a one-make though.

I'm not usually a fan of the Group 4 class. I only like maybe 3-4 cars of that kind. Group 3 suits my need. But everyone has their own opinion on which cars they like to use in each set of daily races. It's like a roll of the rice, we never know what car/track combo PD chooses for each week. We just have to be prepared and ready.

Nice formats this week PD. Im not a fan of fwd either, but at least they’re trying.

Agreed. It's always satisfying when PD give us a selection from a subset of a category. I really wish they'd do it more.

Deep Forest!! Sweet, it's been about 3 weeks so it was due 🙄

I'm hoping Spa will be a good show and not a Supra cup race

I think I found a bug in the daily qualifying this morning. I completed an improved run at Spa for the second of the new Race B's this morning. I'd crossed the line with 8 or 9 seconds left until the practice finished. When I went into the lobby for the race it was showing my old PB! But later, when I entered the next race, there it was! My improved time had been recorded and was used for that one.

This has happened to me a couple times...not sure what the window is but once you're within 'X' number of seconds the time is not applied until AFTER you run the race. Infuriating in the moment, relief when you realize the time was at least captured for the next round.👍

What a nightmare yesterday was. Had a couple good races in the morning but it was a complete train-wreck in the early evening. Just getting punted left and right, losing my composure, etc. A P9 finish was the first step off the cliff. Following it with a P14 was enough of a sign for me...turn off the console, go build stuff instead.🤣

Was gonna go run a couple laps at the 'Ring for fun until I opened it up and noticed my leader board. Apparently someone had an axe to grind...hey, @Mc_Yavel

...I mean, uhhh, nice lap!!!😇

 

[Chris30]

@MetalApe that has happened to me at least 10 times in the game. I guess we have to try to be quick and not get that good lap at the last minute. Don't get discouraged about it, things happen sometimes.

@mellofello9 hopefully you'll get back your groove, sometimes we don't have it every night. It varies week to week how I perform in a race. And if it wasn't for the penalty system, people would be cheating like crazy during qualifying/racing.

Cracking week this week! Really really nice that Race A is just FF's and B is actually a decent length. While I really hope this is a positive change for the future I suspect Race B is that length because they only change a couple of things each week and may have not realised with B 🙈

Here's this weeks guide for those interested.
