Gran Turismo 7 Online Time Trial: Rally Roots Meet Racing Tarmac

The Celica GT-FOUR is one of those cars that carries more history than its modest spec sheet suggests. Toyota’s homologation special for Group A rallying, the ST205 was born to slide through gravel stages and power over crests, not carve through Suzuka’s high-speed esses. But that’s exactly where Polyphony Digital has dropped it in GT7’s Online Time Trials this week, and the result is a time trial that asks you to be precise with a car that would rather be sideways...
 
Morning folks,

First look at the Celica, and what an interesting combo that is :lol:
I like it but i haven't realy cracked the code yet, Degner 2 is a struggle for me, so is getting a descent exit out of spoon and so is braking for the last chicane :lol: ( i do seem to like mowing grass on the left and sideway my way into the chinane )
It handles great though but needs some care from me in stead of Yeeeeeett :lol:

So dumb question. How do you make the Celica turn without it squealing tires and sliding off into oblivion?

So far I’ve only completed one clean lap and it’s a hapless 2.30.3 something. 🤷🏼‍♂️
Very, very carefully. And sometimes it's gonna do it anyway. I find it happens a lot in between Turns 1 and 2, even if it doesn't get super sideways, the second one hair of the tread touches the green, you're done for.

You basically have to wait for the weight (ha) to settle from braking and then you may proceed. Probably. Usually. Maybe. Most of the time.
