Hi everyone, Alan here from Belfast, Northern Ireland.

I exclusively play GT7 on the PS5 and I’m a pesky controller player for now or until I sort the spare room into a man cave.

Have been playing GT games for yrs, just casually tho. This year i will he gettin set up with a rig, why is it that whatever hobby I take up is never cheap!.

Found this place while googling for GT7 racing leagues as I’m simply interested in joining a community with like minded people for a bitta craic and good clean racing, as even in sport mode online there’s still plenty of dirty drivers

Never joined a league before So if someone would be so kind enough and show me the ropes on how to get started it would be greatly appreciated
 
Hello guys i know this forum since so many years, but i register there only now duno why...
Happy to be there ! i hope we can share lot off passion from simracing :)

Hi guys, I’m FESound..
(so in GTS.. in GT 7 with my nickname „fe“)

I (ab)use this forum since I play GTS.. mostly looking for tunings and setups..
I‘m from cologne in germany 🇩🇪
Daytimes I’m mostly racing with my german and at night with my american friends.. and before u ask..
NOPE, I NEVER SLEEP 😂

I’m racing with controller, although I’ve got everything else at home (racing seat, steering wheel)

The reason why I now joined the community is GT 7.. we’re all sitting in that same cracked boat and I want to contribute..

greetz, FESound

My name is Remy and I live in Denver Co. I’ve played all the GT games, and currently play GT7 on a rig. I do open lap days in my 02 RSX-S that’s K24 swapped. I have worked in aftermarket Honda/Acura performance parts most of my life.

I’m happy to be here.

Hello,
I was trying to get tips on how to tune a Camaro SS 16. I have played gran turismo in the past but it's been a long time. I am unfamiliar with how to tune a car. I am losing alot of traction and spinning out on take offs. If someone could lend a hand I would be appreciative

I found GTPlanet whilst looking for liverys.
Im from England.
The earliest i can think of was super sprint on the spectrum way back in the 80s.
I play with a thrustmaster t500 rs with a custom wheel from 3dRap
I mostly enjoy survival stuff like Empyrion or other racing games rfactor 2, assetto corsa competizione.
Convincing enough people to lobby PD to put Zolder in gt7!

Found while browsing GT Forums on Google.
GBR
Not sure on when, but my first GT game was 3 A-Spec, and I got my Logitech G29 for GT5. Played Sport and I'm on the GT7 grind in my ratted Mini 65.
I've had every F1 game since 2015 (+2010) and every FIFA from 14 to 22 (-19)
Just meeting like minded folk I guess.
