They'll be the three tracks of that week's Daily Races, back in October when it was posted...
Gran Turismo 7 Daily Races: Easy as 1-2-3
The Gran Turismo 7 Daily Races have refreshed again for the new week, with an unusual-looking line-up that features racing cars across the board. You know it's going be quite the week when Race A, ordinarily a one-make road car race and the one which last week focused on the Toyota Hiace van, fea

When I decided to go the 'one car' route for Gr.3, this was my go to. Damn fine choice at that. Nice QT @ Suzuka! 👍

And back to work with plenty of time to spend on here. Happy New Year guys!
I spent the last two weeks on Race A and it's a blast. Tokyo Expressway had it's up and down but lots of them were great. I was competitive and could bring victories in many of them. Finish 353th with my 1.49.7 in global ranking which is way better than usual,
And this week Race A is really good fun. The car is a blast to drive, good looking and the racing is great. PD really nailed it.🔥 Liked the car so much, I went to buy it but the car is just not there at this time. Can you bielieve this. PD feature a car in one of their races but don't allow people to buy it.

McYavel! I raced you twice last night as you blew past me whilst I fiddled in the final chicane of slowness.
Fantastic phots and agree 1000% we should be able to buy the dang car.

Tried to work on my consistency for Race C in the NSX Gr.4 (default) before hopping into some races, and did a 1:29.331 QT.
Race 1: Started P8. Punted under braking. Shoved wide on the straights and in the corners. Took new tires at the end of Lap 7. Finished P14.
Race 2: Started P7. Had a minor off on my in lap. Took new tires at the end of Lap 7 again. Finished P9.
Shaved my QT down to a 1:29.202.
Race 3: Started P3. Had fun trying to keep up with a pretty quick Megane. Took new tires at the end of Lap 7 yet again. Set Fastest Lap #11 on Lap 9, with a 1:29.275. Finished P2.
Race 4: Started P6. Rocky start. Same new tires at the end of Lap 7 strategy. Avoided incidents and set Fastest Lap #12 on Lap 9, with a 1:29.570. Finished P3.
Had to cut my day short, but Race C was fun! Hairy - to be sure - but fun. I think I still have a tenth or two in my pocket to improve my QT by the weekend. Good luck out there!

Dying with a cold and I couldn't stomach using VR tonight, 4 races at Suzuka. My early QT wasn't great at 2:02.5 so I was well down the grid. Got a 5th,DNF and a 3rd and then improved my QT to a 2:01.1 .
This was good enough for pole and I just put the head down and crossed the line 7 seconds clear. Well happy with that. I think I can get another second off my QT but at the moment my brain is like a fog and my eyes are sore 🤣🙈. Will try again tomorrow evening 👍

Thanks for the compliment, I have to admit, I really like doing photos.
And sorry to have not notice you on the track. It may be better that way, sometimes I get a kind of nervousness when I see people from here in my lobby.
I also encounter @sturk0167 few races ago and had to race him. I put some extra focus but he was really smooth to be around. He may have let me win that race.

I remember Sturk, good to still see him here.
So howling down the main straight some 8 tenths up on my best qualy lap, I am maybe 2 seconds from the finish line and qualifying ends 13 seconds early. Gaaaaah

Brands Hatch can be a punt-fest in DR B. In 3 races I get shoved off track, and also see a lot of aggressive and dirty driving around me. People want to overtake no matter what, while it is not an easy track to do so. Keep finishing around P10
Did 1 more race laat night. I use the Genesis and I`m not exactly a tire whisperer (despite bb to the back and coasting). 5 laps is okayish but 6 laps is really stretching it with the left front. The former races I pitted after 5 laps. This race I added one more lap in the hope of less traffic. This was the right choice. I started P5, after my pitstop I was P4 with P5-P7 hot on my tail. Managed to stay in front because one of them was dirty and squabbled with the others.
From here I had a constant sight at the lead (about 3 seconds behind). Wasnt fast enough but this is the way I want to race. Quite close and with a chance for a podium or even win. So I called it a night after this P4 finish.
