Note: for cars in class, I'm not counting the ten cars that I don't think can be received as gifts (the various road cars and safety cars that can be obtained thru the mileage exchange).

We have now received the following rare cars that we didn't receive during the April Marathon:
--- Alpine Vision Gran Turismo Race Mode
--- Mercedes AMG F1 W08 EQ Power +
--- Nissan Motul Autech GTR '16
--- Nissan R92CP '92

The above tabulation is current for this thread as of 2 hours ago (5pm EST on 5/8/19).

Just realized I forgot to get the daily yesterday. And since I'm leaving home for school in a couple days, I guess that's the end of my streak.
 
This daily roulette is starting to make me hate the VIIth-gen Golf GTI. :lol: Just got my forth within 9 days between two accounts.

It's the VGT Golf Gr.3 all over again. I can't count how many of those monstrosities I got in the first month playing.
 
Unfortunately, and as predicted, yesterday I was out all day and by the time I got home was too tired to jump in and do a lap and a half of SSRX. I guess I'm out for the rest of the month.

I'm pretty happy with the run of cars I've been tracking since the last update. I know that the game has not been generous to me with Gr.4 cars (I've had to buy nearly all the ones I have), but have been given no less than 5 Gr.4 cars this month! Add on to that the N1000 Veyron and a Ferrari Dino I really can't complain. The Dino was a particular surprise given that the Shifter Kart was also on the wheel so was sure I'd get that.

Of course that's balanced out with only two Gr.3 cars, the Beetle, twice!

Loving the idea of trying to find a pattern in all this. Good luck with the rest of the month 👍

*cough* there's a way to get around this. You can change your time zone in the ps4 settings before you go into the game and go back in time a few hours (depends where you live how far you can go back). I've had to do it once in the past when I got home after midnight.

I wouldn't worry mate, @Famine has said before that any run of consecutive days (I think he said) at least 2 weeks long might prove to be beneficial to the cause so I'd say just mark it down as a miss/reset and keep going if you're able.
If a pattern ever does come to light I imagine that even shorter runs might one day be of use.

There’s no need to manually run your laps, just open a lobby to SSRX and jump in with the Tomahawk, smack the gas to get out of the pits and then pause the game, auto drive will do your laps for you and you’ll get a free car for doing absolutely nothing. :)

What an excellent idea! Can't believe I hadn't thought of that for days when getting the DWG was all I was going to do!

What if i don't have PS Plus? I only have it on one of my two accounts

I only pay for PS+ on my main account, but I run 3 accounts on my PS4 and all work online. One is a main account from my sons PS4 though so it does have a PS+.

I'm not sure if I adversely affected anything here. Decided to jump on lobby with my second account so I could make use of SSR.X. I got the kart from the etiquette videos, aka don't look bad, and went to do my miles.
The roulette pops up and i see a kart. I think it's odd 'cause I've never seen one in the roulette before. Then it lands on said kart. Back to back karts on the same day so I'm not sure if the etiquette gift did something wacky.
Has anyone else gotten a kart from daily roulette before?

Nevermind. Just scrolled up a coiple posts and saw one. :dunce::lol:
