GT7 Daily Race Discussion

I see a lot of love for race A out there at the moment, must try that one soon,

I’ve been in B enjoying the racing and I see now the DR A guys come to town and push me down the ranks a little 😁

Managed a couple of wins today which was a nice surprise, first one hard fought and nervy but starting the second as per my video was more than welcomed 🤣

Managed to get my QT down a little and hopefully a 1.55 is possible even if just

I know right? Lago Maggiore is very fluid.
Up until yesterday I used +2 BB on the Huracan, then I improved my laptime by leaving it at 0.

Interesting, worth a try! Thanks mate

** Update **

Thank you, @hardvibes - a man with good advice! Took me some laps to get used to 0 BB and now need to fiddle a bit with wheel settings, but looks promising with the optimals and definitely moving forwards 😊

If you were "low A+" - let's say 60,000 - then you would have gone from 20% progress (10,000/(100,000-50,000)) to 10% progress (10,000/(150,000-50,000)), losing half your bar.

YA, that makes sense


On a different note, is it spring break somewhere? Some questionable choices being made on track

Forrests Elbow and the Cutting in 3rd?

Yes

Watch a top replay mate, the less shifts and the more torque you ride the faster it's gonna be.

Edit: I have a huge amount of time for Matt/Sparks and this video is really really really helpful.....but I think in this instance the production values are a bit overzealous and sickly a little but I'm not the primary audience I feel but the content is excellent.

C'mon GT7! How am I supposed to stand a chance in this kinda lobby??

Taking two wins and one second place so far this week obviously got the matchmaking carried away, I suppose I'll take the compliment but the No.1 quali time holder in the world is a bit out of my league...

I bet Glen doesn't have to put up with this kind of treatment. @newmedia_dev

(For obvious reasons, I'm not pictured)

Similar to several previous posts, I'm also very low A, but getting in lobbies with a bunch of A+ YouTubers quite often.

Mazda 3 🤮 hate the thing

Glen definitely takes his fair share of those lobbies and brutally less "able" ones as well.

Glen definitely is one of the people feeling the pain, frustration and at the moment very very little motivation.

Also I get what I deserve and own, I'm not consistent and I pay for that.

But yeah "don't they know who I am" 😝🤣🤣🤣

Honestly I'm just a racer like all of us, sometimes fast sometimes slow but always supportive

I feel your pain.
I cant drive that thing so I picked the Scirocco but I cant match the pace of the Mazda gang and Im bleeding DR in a painwful way.

.

With all the love that I have for Bathurst I think I wont be doing more races there for this week.

Get slower and race with the B crowd?

I'm getting a lot of A+ in my lobbies. Luckily not so many (at least well known) youtubers. Seems to be much less of a thing on the NA servers.

Well just let your DR tank some and then you'll be back down to a level B. If it was me, I would rather be in a B or C lobby because the drivers there would at least have common courtesy to be respectful and give other drivers space and not ram them or ride their butt/end. Don't get discouraged if you don't always win, at least you're having fun out there. Just take one step at a time. Good luck.

I was wondering like @Barney Da Dog if there's some temperature related variable in QT at Daytona. I checked some leaderbord top times replays. Actually some of them do a very slow lap beyond 10 min before starting to push. I did something similar with a good improvement and an ideal valuable for the 15th top time.

I had also my first win of the week after multiples accidents. Guess what happens at the end?
