How to properly start GT7?

[FGBraz]

Ok, I have completed MB45.
Overall, the past 3 have been less exciting and inspiring in terms of ROI:-) I have invested millions and got a few bucks back:-) The 5-6 starts tickets gave me:
1. Cr 5000
2. Engine for 50K
3. Some tuning parts worth a couple of dollars

The last couple of menu books are much less rewarding. If I were you I would switch now to other stuff such as CE. Licenses and Missions are also nice, but pay less.

Super Formula was part of the weekly challenge two weeks ago. Take notes from page 191 onwards:

Weekly Challenge Discussion Thread

If its a job to you that playing has to earn a certain amount of money then its not fun for you. That right there says it all, very well put. I drive for the fun and challenge, I do like a good payout but I will still enjoy the challenge and fun.

This was very-very-very intense. Once I got familiar with the speed and track a bit, I did ok:-)))

Ok. So I have completed MB 47 (super formula). Won 2 races and came 3rd in the US. Cannot 100% understand why. I was flat out in the US, driving like an animal with no mistakes. Fastest lap after fastest lap. Only 3rd. The other 2 races I won by 15-25 seconds. Maybe I made a mistake putting a hard tyre for the US.

Ok, completed all 51 menu books. Last 7-8 were retrospectively pointless. Some were very costly and time consuming, but there was almost no reward.

Now I have a few questions:-)
1. What are the menu right next to the main book?
2. How I can now get invites from dealers to get cars and where else you get tickets with rewards offered? Do you get them outside of menu books?

1. What are the menu right next to the main book?

Basically a way to waste lots of money in order to get poor rewards.

2. How I can now get invites from dealers to get cars and where else you get tickets with rewards offered?

You get daily marathon tickets for doin 42,195km, among those tickets, 4* et 5* have respectively 10% and 8% chance to get an invite from any brand that has invite car(s)

Thanks a lot. I see a new weekly challenge. I have already completed all but last. Do not seem to have a very competitive car to drive there at Spa.

Is there a thread where people discuss the weekly challenge from that week?

Well there is a thread named "Weekly Challenge Discussion Thread" Do you think you will be able to find it by yourself ? 🤣

Sorry, yes. I am not yet clear how to find things, but I am learning and appreciate your patience!

Btw, I did win that race! The secret was soft tyres. So the weekly challenge for this week is complete.

I now have enough money to get the car from the invite:

Did you even open it? It is a bunch of car groups that require you to collect all the cars in each group and receive a reward. You might already have completed some!

I did, but I did not understand what is this and why is this. I understood the first 39 menu books. Another 12 were pointless. I had hope the same cool trend from the first 39 will continue, but it was not the case.
So I wanted to figure out what are the other menus. Looks like you complete them by owning cars?

That is correct. I also failed to notice there were no notifications next to the "extra menus" when I said you might already have some completed. As @Lomic said, the rewards are small especially for completing the real expensive groups. Just keep collecting cars you want and eventually you will probably complete some groups.

This 200% 🔥

I guess now I have to get lots of money, buy cars and try get gold in f1 tracks:-))

Actually you do have one group completed (damn poor vision). Open the extra menus and scroll to find what group is completed and click to receive you reward.

It depends on how you want to play the game. Some people only collect the cars they really want or need for certain events. Since I started in GT5, one of my goals has always been to collect every car in each GT game since. I had every car in GT7 four months after launch! I would hate to try to do it this late in the game with so many cars that have been added plus the price increases for the LCD cars.
