All Circuit Experience Gold
All Licence Test Gold
All Missions Gold
(Using Logitech G923 Wheel)
The entire Nordschleife was hard enough, but at least on a controller, you can do it if you don't use traction control. Got a 6:37.722 doing it (gold). Other hard ones I've done were Autopolis and Mount Panorama.Circuit Experience is harder than any license test to get gold. Le Mans and the Nordschleife are very tough.
Sorry but...The entire Nordschleife was hard enough, but at least on a controller, you can do it if you don't use traction control. Got a 6:37.722 doing it (gold). Other hard ones I've done were Autopolis and Mount Panorama.
I actually find Le Mans harder (if not, the toughest one there is). High Speed Ring and Brands Hatch are also unbearable.
Remember, don't use traction control, and use precise throttle and braking inputs like God Foot. Even setting traction control to 1 will kill your cornering speed.
Suzuka, WTC800 with AI on hard.I used a detuned Gr.2 2016 Nissan. Started on Wets, fuel map 6 and ran none stop for a very easy win. (For context - I'd say that on pace, I'm a high DR B, but not a DR A). Oh, I forgot, I might have left the AI on Easy after grinding a few races - so never mind. I'll have another go with AI on hard
Cheers, I got so many close calls.
Circuit Experience guide videos can be useful if someone is stuck, some parts you can go off-track a bit without failing, makes sections easier, especially the last few turns in Catalunya.
No idea, never happened this often.How are times so perfect? .00 even? No .564 .042.. always flat times?

I just got super lucky with some runs.
Winning the 2nd race (Suzuka) of the WTC 600 Championship. On the hard setting.
Definitely the most difficult challenge in the entire game for me.
Overall, I am not that disappointed with the "difficulty" in GT7. It's way harder than GT6 and GT Sport but not as hardcore hard as GT4 and GT5 were, some of the events in GT4 and GT5 were simply not possible for 99% of the playerbase.
The game still presents a few challenges that even the good players won't gold it on the first try and have to put some decent effort to gold it (S-10, Nurburgring Circuit Experience Full Lap, WTC 600 2nd race), and at the same time those challenges are achievable by a lot of the player base with due practice (not hardcore).
I was an A ranked driver in GT Sport (could've achieved A+ but I tanked my rank on purpose to get those wins and poles faster and was done with sport mode after the 327 races), was able to Gold the Vettel challenges in GT5 and Diamond in the Hamilton DLC, so I am safe to consider myself a player within the top 2-3% in the ranks. Which is likely why outside of the 3 challenges I bolded above, nothing was that difficult, but not "gold in 1 try" easy either. It's well balanced.
Any event compared to the Vettel and Hamilton challenges is easy by comparison.
For me the most difficult test in GT7 for a while... Doing dayli races and not throwing a tantrum and/or nervous breakdown.Before update 1.13, the only challenge I struggled with was Leman's 1 Lap Attack Circuit Experience, on controller, but I was only 0.2 seconds off gold. After 1.13 I beat it by 2 seconds on my first go.
So maybe The Human Comedy - Lake Maggiore mission is the hardest challenge post 1.13?
I found that the key to getting Gold on Brands Hatch was to shift up earlier than you usually would, the car seems to have a lot of mid-range torque for exiting corners in a higher gear than you'd think. I managed it with TCS set to 1 before the update.The entire Nordschleife was hard enough, but at least on a controller, you can do it if you don't use traction control. Got a 6:37.722 doing it (gold). Other hard ones I've done were Autopolis and Mount Panorama.

Yap, usually try to not use TCS while playing (ex. in endurance races at Le Mans and Spa, put some TCS on with wet track), but it's so much faster with it in some conditions, specially in tracks like Nordschleif.Sorry but...
How many more times?
Forever the same "stupid" prejudice against TCS.
Your time WITHOUT TCS is slower than I am with TCS, so it's not the TCS but your driving style.
