Hey! I just joined, been playing grand turismo for a long time, found this place last night racing with a player from here. From USA philly area, and use just the controller and been thinking of getting a wheel and pedals. I love Assassins Creed, especially 2 and brotherhood and of course gta games. Look forward to seeing how racing with an actual league goes.Welcome to a special thread just for new members!

I'm from Brasilia, Brazil main capital.
I started to play racing games when i was a kid, which is actually a pretty long time ago, since now i'm 39 yo.
My current set is a PS5 base model and a G29 steering wheel.
I play all kind of games, but most of the time i stick with adventure and racing.
My objective is to participate in livery contests, so, if you can, please take a look to my GT7 profile an leave your feedback!

Welcome man, can't wait to take a look at your liveries. I'll turn 34 next September, so I'm six years younger than you.

I found GTPlanet through a google search for "car and tuning advice on how to beat the Tokyo Clubman plus 550PP race" and the tunes thread by Praianos (sp?) appeared from the search results.
I'm born and raised in Maryland but from Salvadoran parents.
I played the first Gran Turismo on PS when it came out. I traded my cousin another PS game for Gran Turismo and that's all she wrote, been hooked ever since. Favorite car other then the Skyline was the Mitsubishi FTO.
I currently play with the controller but looking to get the logitech racing wheel with pedals and shifter.
I like some of the Need for Speed and Forza games but other then racing I love Assassins Creed, FIFA, Madden, and I still play Pokemon (don't judge me lol).
I'm looking forward to interacting with new people who have the same passion for racing games.

Hello, welcome to this cool addicting site! I don't ever think I'm gonna buy another wheel. I'd rather stick with the controller and not risk getting leg/foot cramps from pressing on the pedal too hard.

Hi all, found this site looking for GT7 tuning. I live in UK. I've been playing racing games since before consoles were around, mainly in arcades. First proper games I played at home was probably Ridge Racer, can't remember which console though. Had every GT variant over the years. I use a controller. Hoping to get some tuning tips to help get further with GT7. Tried many other racing games but always go back to GT.

- Found GT planet while searching google for Car builds for GT7. Found the SNAIL League completly seperatly by jumping into a room on Grand turismo 7 with radliffpower and discovered the awesomeness of a room of clean drivers having fun.
- Born in louisianna . Raised in california, Currently residing in Tempe Az
- Found my love of racing games with Grand turismo 1 on the PS1.
- Dont currently have a stering wheel, I play on controller, But getting a Rig really soon.
- I play a ton of other games, like Cyber punk2077, Elden Ring. Tekken, Hell divers 2, Arma Reforger, MArvel Rivals. all on PS5.
- I have been searching for a cool clean Racing leage to enjoy my time on GT7 alot more. Im pretty much an introvert and dont have a ton of friends, let alone many that play GT7 with the enthusiamsim that i do, so it would be awesome to find a community of like minded racers to get better with. Im not perfect at the game by anymeans, and will apologize now for any bumps but i promise they are never intentional. I love the game, and racing reguardless of wins. its the rush and the fun i have while doing so that i enjoy most.

Well, what's wrong with that? I'm sure other people here do the same thing. Jordan seems fine with it and it's his thread.

Thanks for the welcome! Have been playing GT for a long time and am getting ready to give GT7 a whirl. I have never played against others on the internet but plan it down the line after I get used to GT7. One thing I am trying to figure out is what steering wheel to get for GT7 and on PS4. I am not looking to spend a whole lot of money and also, want one that I can use the paddles for the brake and accelerator. Never had much luck with the foot peddles....lol Any help would be appreciated.I am also retired, 70 years old but love racing and definitely love cars. I am attaching a pic of my 71 Mach 1 Mustang that I have had for 12 years restoring it. It is my pride and joy!!!!
Oooops, will do the pic of the Mach 1 later....lol

Hello! I found GTPlanet, while browsing for tips on how to better my car and chances to win the Suzuka Gr.1 10-lap, which there's one (1) day remaining in the weekly challenge to unlock another event, lol. || I'm from Windsor, Ontario, and my Husband and I used to race each other in GranTurismo 36 years ago. || Although I don't use a steering wheel, that sounds like a good option, as I've been using the left stick to steer, which isn't always accurate. || Other games i play include CoinMaster, Ludo, Backgammon, Sudoku, Golf, Euchre, etc., as the list goes on, lol, just currently I'm focused on GranTurismo and CoinMaster. || In your community, I'll know better once I've been here, just I like to help if I can, and will. || Upon initial sign up, I thought I could connect with Discord, but it doesn't matter, as I'll find everything here. || KUDOS!Welcome to a special thread just for new members!

I've come across this site from time-to-time for about as long as I've been using the internet (feels like it at least), but never bothered to use it beyond some pages showing up incidentally in search engine results. Oddly enough a friend linking a random page from the Downloads section of the site spurred me to register an account, just cause.
Where from.. Places unknown.
When.. Probably as long as I've been gaming in the first place.
Steering wheel.. Of course, G29. Hoping for a DD I can still have on my desk in the near-future. No I'm never moving from being a desk racer.
Other games.. Honestly everything, but I've siloed myself to mostly vehicle-related games over time.
Forward.. Being cool probably.
