You are going to be a lonely man.

🤣 I have been married for 13 years now, I know the drill by now 🤣🤣
But there is ALWAYS room for GT7 laps, and man must claim these precious times, even when that eliminates the shower, 🤣

Been away on holidays with the family for 10+ days. Lots of fun but missed investing km’s in these TT’s.

Secured silver. Will have another crack tonight for gold but this one is likely out of reach for me.

(Saw the GT movie while I was away. Really liked it but more importantly, the 12 year boy loved it, wants on my racing wheel now)

Same here.

I've been struggling to find the time to commit to the 330 P4 TT at Monza, sadly, as it's a combo I absolutely love! But I've adorned it with the Scuderia Filipinetti livery from the 512S (but running standard number boards) and put in about 20-odd laps in total.

I've managed a 1:48.1XX and had a couple of laps where I could have slipped into the 47's, but always seem to slip up somewhere around the lap when I'm on a flyer!

I may have to settle for a middle-silver on this one, as I'm going to struggle to put much time in over the next two nights due to work commitments. If I can find the time, who knows, maybe crack into the 47s!

 

[Darrenersmit]

Maybe having a long break from time to time is a good thing, not been on gt7 for a while. Jumped on the Monza TT yesterday and into silver after 3 sessions on 1:49.1??, goes on laguna 1:35.3 on first lap should be another silver, although laguna seca is one of my top tracks.

 

[Evilmuffin]

Another tiny improvement.....so many opportunities to get into the .6s or even .5s, but always screwed up somewhere 🙃

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Just had my first go at Monza, safe for my first silver which is pleasing.
Looking tight for first now...View attachment 1285053

When I first read your post, I hadn’t appreciated what I was looking at 😱Safe for silver 😂!!! Epically well done to you and @EbrahimX7 sir!

Thirty-five years for me.

Thanks to Labor Day, I had an opportunity to do my first attempt at the Red Bull Ring TT. Made it well past gold, but I may revisit this again to lower my time some more once it’s close to ending.

 

[Gomario JSP]

Right, 150 miles further this morning and didn't hit any apex with he right tire,
i was so frustrated that i began throwing it around, then you know it is time to quit
Had multiple 30.9's but never toutched the .8 again....,

Picture sums up my stint......., tomorrow is a new day

 

[787Bee]

Laguna Seca shaping up to be a tough one statistically, only 4% in gold right now

 

[Barareklam]

I would guess like previous time on same track when hade tuning enabled, many members of forum got good tunes and made good times, so like that this time many see this downshifting examples and can gain some miliseconds by doing that, while regular people not following tips and advices brakes and shifts how people usually doing in cars and hence not reaching fast times...

 

[Dairyworker]

Surprised myself by getting gold at monza over the weekend. It's a safe gold so i probably wont go back to try and improve. Time to start working on the vette......

I guess i should hit the redbull one sooner than later also

 

[Chris30]

Well, wish me luck guys. I'm gonna keep trying at the Monza TT and take a triple-stab at the Laguna one. I probably will not be able to beat the gold group as there is only a very small margin of people who have achieved super-fast times. But that's okay. I'm just going to be myself and race to the best of my ability.

And hopefully I can earn at least silver in the RBR Nissan Time trial with almost a month of time left. I just need to pick the right replays that use AT transmissions. Wish me the best of luck with this. So far I've earned, 2 gold, 8 silver, and 18 bronze medals in a 10-11 month period.

Good luck Chris, perseverance is key, you can do this

Aaaaand you went down by 30 places 🤪😂 lap time challenges are cruel at the best of times!

I’ve given up on Monza as although I enjoy it, I always think the track is a little one dimensional and the Ferrari and its slightly unruly handling is too unpredictable to spare any more time. Was an absolute beast though and I very much enjoyed that TT!

Got to grips with the Corvette today and cracked out a decent time… This reminds me a lot of @sdi_03 ’s tune of the Mustang the last time we did Laguna Seca, but more forgiving under powerrrrrr. Result: largely fun. Yeah the transmission ‘saus’ (trademark; @Gomario JSP ) to set a quick time is a bit lame but hey go that’s PD’s problem to fix. I love Laguna Seca, this is pure Gran Turismo for me! Shame I’m away until late in the weekend now as I’d LOVE to do a ton of laps in this 😁

 

[Gomario JSP]

Look at this @Dan_Tes dude, out of nowhere sets a 30.666 🤣 and a kind of messy lap for you so i have no doubt you will end up in 29's ! Very impressive Dan!

 

[Evilmuffin]

Another minor improvement.
I think the change of racing suit helped

 

[Chris30]

I'm gonna work on something later tonight!! I'll keep you all posted on the action.

 

[Carlos Fandango]

I’ve been having a lot of fun with Daily races over the last week or so and have consequently neglected my TT duties - you are all waaaaay too fast now!! I have some work to do…

Monza is unfinished business. I’m in gold (at least I was last time I checked) but I think there’s another half a second to find to hit the sweet spot for me.

I did have a quick go in the Corvette last week when the event came out, but I need to recalibrate my senses for braking points much earlier than I thought. I have used the car a little in a WRS TT not too long ago, but that was on Sport Soft tires with earlier game physics, and it all feels very different now.

 

[djolliea]

Slowly getting closer to the 29s at LS and doing it without abusing the gears / over-revving while braking.

 

[ikon_313]

Haven't had much "seat" time lately, but managed to sneak into gold at Laguna and Monza while leaving some tenths on the table. Sub 47 and 31 should be in the realm of possibilities, if I find the time to get some more laps in. Laguna sits very shaky with only a fraction of a difference.

Kudos to the fast ones here, seeing improvements on all fronts and it's getting harder to keep up

 

[Evilmuffin]

Groan......I had 5 or 6 possible 1:30.6s at Laguna Seca but ended up screwing up somewhere. It is starting to get a bit annoying
