Weekly Challenge Discussion Thread

Fuji was actually quite fun in the Mazdas, though a bit too easy.

Happy not to have any FPS issues in the Daytona race, might be a benefit of using the 120fps mode now and VRR.

My Afeela destroyed the competition at Trial Mountain - EVs are the future!

Used a Jimny for the Sunday Cup and a lovely old 911 Turbo at Laguna Seca (got beaten on the drag to the line by its descendant).

As ever the parts prize gave me the shaft.

6* car brought me a Porsche 919 Hybrid '16, not too shaby 😁

Son of a beach , i got a VGT worth 359 K and with price up to 5% 😬

@Fezzik isn't the original shaft what you get , the original is black and round 😂

I equipped four road cars with SM tyres and they all reverted to their CM and SH defaults. That was at Suzuka.

Edit: I bought SM tyres for the R32 and added it to the grid of other cars equipped with SM.

Yeh I don't doubt you at all. On my machine they are using all compounds. Ran a 24 lap custom at monza last night.

*edited: You are correct they were comfort softs. Ugh PD!

I did the this this week challenge early this morning and I used the Bugatti CGT Gr.1 at Daytona. It can do a no pitstop race but I did put on lap 8 because I was a little bit worried about the tires

Next up I used the Miata touring car at Fuji I made it harder than it needs to be by taking a couple of curves about 30 mph too fast 😁

Next up I took the 904 to Laguna Seca. I won but again I drove the 904 like it was a rally car so there was a lot of air from hit kerbs. Again too fast in curves I finally buckled down for that last couple off laps and kept all 4 wheels on the pavement 😁

Next I used a swapped Alphard at Trial Mountain. It was an easy race for me and it was the 1st race I where I stayed in bumper view the entire time as it hard to see the cars in front of me in Chase mode with the van

Finally I took my favorite Sunday Cup car out the Valkyrie

I got brakes from the part ticket and got another Valkyrie which I decided to keep since I never got around to getting a 2nd one.

A second Valkyrie ?

It was an early Christmas gift from Kaz 🤣 He wanted to compensate me for spending so much on the Merc. 😁

I know we're not exactly playing a Soulsborne here.

But wow, even by GT standards this Roadster race was really easy. They got the Civic TC races - IMO the gold standard of special event races - so right, but these Roadster ones have felt off the mark to me despite having the same formula (there's a Touring Car, but you can tune up the base model if you want).

With these weekly challenges, it gonna take a loooooong time to obtain those 20 mil unicorns 🤣 I'm currently sitting on around 7 million.
Well past grinding, though. Just can't be a*****

I got the Citroen invitation car for my ticket prize. I already had one, unused, so certainly don’t need another. Got almost half a mil credits for it. Another week, another ‘meh’ prize car.

Shafts, apparently, and not an ounce of lube in sight. Zoom, zoom.😁
