Finally a much welcomed low grip Time Trial :lol:. As bad as I am in any variation of Dragon Trial, I like how the M3 feels (and slides) around this track and had a blast doing it. I was going to settle with 1:49.6 but I just couldn't stop as it was so much fun, and accidentially ended up with a 1:49.4, which I think is pretty close to what I can ever manage.

I was probably doing my laps the same time @Gomario JSP did as I was swaping positions on my friend list with you all evening :sly:.

@Evilmuffin Love your Top Gear livery!

It's so frustrating I do exactly the same as you.....but you just do it better 🤣
 
Honestly I do undestand organizer side too, I mean I know you would like to test it but... it is for selected countries for reason, not even all European countries are allowed to take part.

We had "Sweden only" last summer, Sony, Logitec + 2 other sponsors organized it and I liked it that it really was that way. Think we do have already enough global TTs, sometimes even too many, at least feels like that for a busy person. (as far as I know there are others that are exclusive for America or Japan)

However I could agree with you that there should be snow one from PD as just regular Thursday TT. Just my opinion.
These restricted competitions are the main reason why I have a second account that makes me all-american. I will never win a prize but theoretically I could and nothing would hinder me. I would prefer to let everyone participate and give the prices to those who meet the preferences. At least all european countries should have access to this one.
 
It's like groundhog day with him. I think you all have told him this so MANY times and it just comes back over and over and over....... :irked: :confused:
You're right on that analogy, well gold does not exist to me anymore. I wasted so much time fighting for it back then and it got me nowhere in life. Did not give me any kind of benefit. Time for this groundhog to retire soon. I'm being serious too.

All I am saying I was on the other side, organizer, not for GT7 Time Trials but anyway... And when you put an age group or gender, and then 14 years old running in 14 years old group but then 16 years join and outrun everyone... anyhow.. I just didn't liked not respecting the regulations, maybe it is just me.. back to topic :)

It still doesn't work right. The Honda TT has 2 events for everyone and U18 and you could still take part in both TTs despite being over 18. The PSN SDK definitely allows looking up DOB and obviously location, so it wouldn't be impossible to just let everyone take part but only keep eligible people on the leaderboards. Idk, maybe it's an edge case, but it kinda sucks how some of these TTs are gatekept.

Tume talked some sense into me yesterday. I am officially giving up on gold. I will just have to do with the 7 I earned, silver is a better aim for me. It's actually for amateur drivers looking for a challenge on the road. I'll just get my popcorn/snacks and keep watching you guys compete and fight for the top!!!
