GT7 Online Time Trial/Lap Time Challenge Discussion

[Dan_Tes]

I’m assuming the .5 lap i have done a few days ago is a pretty decent lap it seems! Hope you guys have a great weekend. 🙌View attachment 1526524

New one is definitely tougher than the last few have been. I'm still sitting at about 3.40%. I'm really not fond of cars that handle like this - sort of heavy and non-responsive with an incredibly thin margin between "trail braking" and "unrecoverably spinning."

Jesus... think I might stop posting here 🤣 feeling a bit inadequate!! In all seriousness that last page was fantastic and hilarious at the same time...
I'm fastest
No, I'm fastest
I think you'll find actually, I'm fastest

Brilliant - in awe!!

First of all, congratulations on P1!

Thank you for sharing settings. Do you know if these settings works for Thrustmaster wheel too or only Logitech? I think I read somewhere that Thrustmaster overrides steering sensitivity settings regardless what we put or maybe I mixed them up with steering angle?

They would work for your wheel sir. Do try them!

Not P1 any more though, however I did improve to a .7, but the wrong end of it🤣

@ADAM18 Great lap bro, equalled your opening 2 sectors but felt the pressure (and fatigue) during the final sector, which ended up being largely rubbish.

2'11.799🫡

More to come but will try another session Tuesday. Bit busy during Easter, take care ladies and gents!

I think I can squeeze a little bit more out of this track but I am still satisfied with this time. The consistency throughout the tracks is killing me now but I guess it comes with the age.

Having a tougher time with this camry than I expected. I can't put a lap together, always make a mistake and bin it, which is fine ifbi had pace but my splits suggest I am right on thr very edge of gold. Same track in the current group 4 daily and my QT is 2pc off the top time and I only did 7 laps, so it feels odd.

Car feels OK until I go from 9 to 10 tenths, then boom I lose it.

Well done on that '12 !
I am hoping to have another session tomorrow morning cause I am falling behind this way.......I blame the age too 🤣🤣

I have no doubt you’ll improve your time. I just improved mine to 2:12.834.

OK, I've established a tenuous gold zone beach-head in the Trial Mountain TT...

Man... work has been CRAZY over the past month. Fighting hard to make time to play GT7 even when maybe I shouldn't be Don't tell my boss though...

Love the game, continue to look forward to every bit of seat time that I get.

Wanted to respond to @PowerJunkie for a few days and juuuust got a chance to sit down at my computer. Reading messages and "liking" is generally easy to do from my phone, but posting from my phone is another story... I am terrible at typing on a mobile device, and when I'm on my phone, images post as an attachment and are never in-line with the message. Technology! Anyhow....

Those are some killer smoke trails... like smoking a few six packs there buddy. Light-em up!

Wooo Hoooo! Made it into the 2:26's at Suzuka! 2:26.998. Only by 2 thou, but it counts!!! 😎
And the entry to T1 gave some glorious smoke shots @bigfluffy888

I put a few sessions into the Toyota Crown at Trial Mountain Reverse, and like a nitwit, I went with the Toyota Crown Athlete and not the Safety Car version.

I was drastically off the pace - thinking "why am I so slow coming out of the chicane" and "this thing can't turn worth a ****"). Turns out, the Safety Car version is better, thanks @Manimal for very kindly pointing me in that direction It won't be the first (or last) time that I choose the wrong car

But why even have the regular car as a choice! Why oh PD, why do you do this??!

My first (and only up to this point) session with the safety car is like throwing off a weighted vest running a 5k. Feels light!! Much better handling, less wheel-spin, and (kind of) pleasant (?) to drive.

Let's throw a couple of child car-seats in the back, kids screaming "are we there yet" and Frozen "Let It Go" blaring in the background... I want to make this as realistic as possible to my life

I went with an anime livery as is becoming my tradition...

Was 76th at the time but this has no doubt been blasted way off the leaderboard there's a 2:12 in me somewhere... GT7 gods willing Will do more session(s) tonight.

I'm still on my mission of attempting a top 100 time at Road Atlanta in the Mazda.

Found a 10th need another 4.

out of interest is any one getting top times with VR? I am using VR and steering wheel and seem to getting silver. I’m also useless.

As far as I know, our incredible fast friends @Vule , @Dan_Tes and @crome all use VR. They are constantly ranking at the top of the leaderboards. I use VR too and got a few top 100 recently.
