Well the good news for me is that the Mclaren F1 Road Car is the only car left for me to get as any car built before 2001 ends up in either the UCD or the LCD. :cool:

And having double checked my Car Collection list, that is official, after the F1, the only cars left are all in Brand Central.

All without spending a single penny on MTX’s. :yuck:

I took this photo on the 22nd of March in protest of event payouts being nerfed and that 917K, I grinded for outta spite to the MTX’s.

I logged nearly 6000 miles of rallying up until the update which gave us all a huge Circuit Experience windfall, then the Tokyo Tomahawk caught my attention…

The rest as they say, is history. :D

I missed out on the F1 for the 917, If it shows up tomorrow, I’m ready to punt FOMO out of my GT7 career. :mischievous:
 
It seems like there will be 2 cars tomorrow:
McLaren F1 1994 18,500,000
Porsche 917K 1970 18,000,000

Not everyone can grind for 36,500,000 cr to buy both cars. What car would you like to buy more?

I really like McLaren F1 1994 in GT Sport. It was like the best road car with Race tires. But I'm affraid that it have problems with fuel and pit-stop every 2-3 laps (like Ferrari FXX), and it can't be used on WTC800-WTC700 events against Gr4-Gr3 cars. And it seems like McLaren F1 1994 and Pagani Huayra '13 are very simular (speed, corners, breaks). Pagani Huayra '13 with power setup shows 3 laps fuel on Sardegna). 18,000,000 cr whould be paid for really great car, I think. And I don't like McLaren F1 1994 cockpit, cos it's so dark. I can't really drive w/o race information in GT Sport, just can't see dashboard (even speed).

And what is about Porsche 917K1970? It has 753PP. Can it be good in WTC700 or WTC800? Has it fuel problems? It looks great.

I'll try to buy both of these cars, but it's so hard to grind more then 3M every day after last update.
They will both be fully useless for any kind of actual racing right now. PD's insistence on using higher fuel consumption makes the F1 useless right now. There will be races where you can technically take the car, but they will be seal clubbing events with minimal payout. There will be no fun races for the F1.

I don't have the 917K, but like the rest of the cars from that era, I'm sure it'll be serviceable but not really any better than a number of modern cars that you'll be able to get for far less money.

Both of the cars will be purely collector items. If you can't get both, choose the one that you want to collect the most. I'm in the same boat and I'll be choosing the F1 this time around.

Great collection! I need to buy 17 legendary cars. I have all brand central cars and used cars. But i news more then 100,000,000 for thesd 17 cars. It would be to Hard to grind during 1 month., but i Will try. My temp 3,000,000 every day as minimum. But it's a Hard moment. 3 next cars cost about 42,000,000 and o have only 22,000,000. I hope they will be available 8 days at list

it’s a totally pointless game mechanic which brings no enjoyment to any player in any way, it only makes the players who bought the cars before the price rises thankful they didn’t get screwed over even harder by a game that’s already screwing us all over pretty hard with its economic design.

So screw it back and use the well publicised AFK passive methods to grind ca$h without having to do anything. Some were nerfed with the 1.15 update but there are still working methods and more being devised by the day. I realise this isn't for everyone, but just making people aware that there are alternatives to being screwed by the game's economy and accepting that you'll not get to drive many of the cars in the game you paid £80 for.

You seen the price of electricity now? Getting screwed IRL and in-game.

That right there is the meme of the year. Speaking of MTX, using them to pay for just the known increases in Hagerty's prices is equal to that of the 25th Anniversary edition of GT7.
 
Why would you want to sell a legendary car? My plan was to have at least two of most road cars, with one to leave as-stock - barring some other tire compounds - and one to modify. Maybe even three, if we account for the potential regulation of widebodies.

While I do also hope they'll let us sell gift cars, I'd count your blessings to have two Vulcans. You can leave one as-stock, and then modify the other, especially with a reinforced rigidity upgrade which cannot be undone.
See that's the thing though, I personally won't count my blessings for having three vulcans. I personally only want/need one. The money I "should" get from the other two would go towards upgrades and cars I actually want/need
 
Speaking of fuel economy, the 911 GT1 surprised me. Granted I typically just gap at a 1 setting, I didn’t expect it to barely cover a lap.

Have you used the F1? It's one of the best road cars in the game, with only the F50 being slightly quicker in my testing (like 1/2sec slower at pretty much every track I've ran them and it's all down to the F50 being more planted even when power is added and weight is removed)

F1 is great for Sarthe WTC 700, and it's one of the more "fun" cars to drive, imo. Takes some time to get used to but can easily win at Sardegna WTC 800 with a roughly 750pp setup, all downforce bolt-on's from GT Auto applied. What's great about it in these races is you can run it at FM6 to save gas but due to the limited downforce and high HP/torque you can still reach top speeds well above the opponents. So they can out-corner you, but you've got the acceleration and top speed to nullify this advantage.

At Sarthe it's a 2/3 stop depending on how everything shakes-out (whether you get rain 2x, when you overtake the leader, whether you game the race and play defense to have the timer run out a few hundred meters before the end of the 7th lap)

At Sardegna it's usually 2 stops, 3 if I need to up the fuel consumption for any reason. Certainly not as easy as using the F1 GTR Long Tail or CLK-LM, but when you've run these races so many times you gotta do something to shake it up.

With that said, I'm not saying it's exactly worth the price. However, unlike nearly every other 20mil-ish car it has the ability to enter and win 2 of the 3 most profitable races, so it can earn its keep. Could prob fit into Tokyo but it would be a nightmare with all the rain... I've used it more than any other LCD sans the F1 Long Tail and CLK-LM and plan to buy a second one when it pops up so that I can tinker with weight reduction, etc. It's personal preference of course, but the F1 is one of the best cars in the game imo.

Edit: I should say it WAS amongst the best cars in the game in 1.13. I've barely played since 1.15 so it is possible this is no longer true. I have noticed the CLK-LM is quicker in 1.15 than it was in 1.13 by as much as 2sec at Sardegna, so something was tweaked (could just be the transmission no longer being part of PP calculation) Anyway, I'll jump in and run it at these events to make sure they didn't break it. I would genuinely feel bad if someone bought it on my recommendation if it has been altered for the worse with the latest update.

Update: The car feels a little different to me, but it's probably just in my head. All I've really driven in this game over the last 3 weeks is the Tomahawk and Gr. 1 so I think it was just weird not having at least 800 pounds of front downforce. That said the brakes do feel weaker than I remember, though a swap to carbon-ceramic cleared that issue up. Ran Sardegna 2x on hard, first time I had to pit 3x and took 2nd place, second race I managed 6 laps before needing to pit so I did it on 2 stops for a 4sec win (good race). Also ran it on normal, 2-stopper, and I swear the AI is tougher on normal difficulty than on hard. Had to wring every last pony out by switching to FM1 for the final 1/2 of the last lap. Still only managed maybe a 10 meter lead at finish. Most fun I've had in the game in months! It's not the best road car for this race; the F50 runs quicker (it has rear diffuser option so better cornering) and I'm sure the Porsche GT1 would be a little quicker with the right setup (again, more downforce options) but the F1 is still quite capable and Im positive once Praiano, Exeter, or one of the other top tuners has a crack at it the car will only get better.

This was on Race hards, no ballast, all power upgrades but with power limiter set to 95 to lower the power-band in the rev range, and ECU set a few clicks down to give around 630hp (for better fuel economy) close to stock suspension (softened the rear a bit) and the only assist was the brake zone since I was switching between brakes. PP was like 732 or something like that.

I still plan to buy a second since it can be wide-bodied and there are quite a few permanent engine upgrades available. No weight-reduction though, unfortunately, but at a hair over 2500lb it's far from being a pig to begin with. I stand by my recommendation for it if you can afford it, doubly so if you're an F1 fanatic. It's far from the easiest car to drive, but with some throttle control and practice it is very fast and is just "slippery" enough to keep you on your toes (in a good way)

Just hilarious. A huge shock and annoyance from players across the internet when they revealed the price of the F1 originally, so what do PD do? Make it even more expensive second time around. Because of course they do.

Video Game. Fun. PD seem to have long lost sight of that simple goal.

PD gotta be PD.

To be fair, the last time they had the F1 in the LCD... it was a day or two after they nerfed all the payouts to less than 1mill an hour.... It was a pure insult then and showed PD's intentions of pushing people to MTX even more clearly than before.

To be fair - its now expected. Plus you can earn that extra 900,000 credits in less than an hour. Im not excusing PD because their economy is still trash but it should be expected by now - I'm more surprised that it wasn't pushed to being over 20mill

Sure it's not a big increase, but it was already one of the most expensive cars in the game. There was absolutely no need to increase it further other than to annoy people. It's not like anyone was going to complain it was too cheap, were they? I know it's a Sony slogan, not a PD one, but it's not "For the players" is it?

And it's going to be even more expensive come August. Do note the fresh up-arrow.
 
Wow, another 900.000 increase in credits. I wanted to buy two of them... Might as well buy them now before they get to 20 million next time.

They increase the prices of cars.

But then, they release Gr.1 events, that by all means should've been paying better than the Gr.3 races, and yet, they don't... The Saint Croix race alone takes about 25 minutes for most people, and you get a measly 300k from it, and it's a Gr.1 race, the highest category in the game.

The daytona race which is also incredibly difficult for most people, as some cars that start in the top 3 may not even pit while you have to or if you don't have to, you will have to nerf yourself with harder tyres and fuel management.
This race pays less than any of the other Gr.3 races in Daytona, this is a joke.

More of the same for Suzuka.


It's really not much to ask to add some sort of event or series of events that pay 3 million or more in 1 hour. A 10 race championship that would take 2 hours to complete but give you an overall reward of 6 million (Gr.1 category or Red Bull X / Super Formula / F1500 T one-make races).


EDIT: Overall, the total cost is at over 440 million, so at the end of the day, with the next batch of cars getting their prices increased, it might actually go over the 450 million I originally predicted.

Just watch as they will price the Jaguar D-type according to the Le Mans winner that was sold on auction for about 20 million...

The Hagerty tie in as I say is an absolute joke, the cars go up in price while the grind is still as heavy as ever. I want to come on and put a bit of time into doing what I enjoy on the game with the cars I want. Grinding the same three races for hours and hours on end is simply not enjoyable to me - appreciate GT has always had a grind but previous GT games didn't just ramp up the prices of digital cars for a tie in with a company that provides zero benefit to the players.

Agreed. I will say that the Gr. 1 Porsche makes the Daytona race child’s play but nonetheless I am very disappointed that they didn’t incorporate races with payouts you’re referring to. Especially considering how easy it would be to do so.
 
From 98mil all the way down to 60mil in one fell swoop... That's an expensive update, and I've got another 6.3mil to spend tomorrow on a GT40 Mk1 duplicate and more than likely a couple Porsche Carrera RS CS's that are about due in the UCD. Another 6.2mil on duplicates of the Miura and '84 GTO in the next week or so. Still need the 300SL W194 and 250 GTO so there's at least another 31-34mil. Not to mentioned duplicates of about 15 other road cars. That's also totally ignoring the Alfa 8c and S Barker! No way I can afford those cars!

I worked the hell out of the Tomahawk glitch and afk script, and I'm STILL going to have to go back to running my PS5 all night as I don't have the credits to keep up with this. Granted I don't NEED duplicates, but spending 50% of a car's cost for a new engine or 120% for a new body is even more insane if the weight reductions/wide-body, etc ruin the handling...

Does anyone actually like this game? This isn't fun to me. It's not "rewarding" that I just spent about 15% of a month's worth of grinding on two cars, it feels like I just spent two hours in the hood only to get sold a bag of dope that was stomped-on so many times there's no opiate left in it. I legit am starting to wonder if I don't have some kind of addiction to this twisted Skinner Box they call a game. (though at least the rats in the box received some kind of tangible reinforcement). Is that it, am I just dumber than the average inbred lab rat?! A game is supposed to be fun, not catalyze an existential crisis! lol But I'm sure I'll be back tomorrow since I'm a ****ing moron that keeps coming back no matter how much I loathe the experience... Almost 12 years I spent addicted to heroin and the way this game makes me feel is not far from where I was at just before I finally got clean. I'm sure this is fine though, and totally good for the health of all the players. Nope, not at all deleterious! On the other hand I finally have the 917k! :dunce:
 
Back
