1. Tested differents cars in GT.3 Lake Maggiore 5 laps race with hard tyres.
  • Subaru BRZ : best lap at 1:58
  • Supra GT500 : impossible to lap below 2:00
  • Nissan GT-R : 2 laps in a row below 2:00
  • 911 RSR : best lap at 1:59
  • 86 GR.3 : impossible to lap below 2:00

In short, I have an issue with Toyota (no offense^^) while the others cars where more "easy" to drive.
I had the best feelings with the 911 and the GT-R. Happily impressed with the BRZ.
I'll probably test the AMG and the FT-1 VGT GR.3.

2. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ = Cr 10.000
 
If that actually is on hards and not accidently mediums, you have a win in human comedy ;)
Yes, all these tests were with HR tyres. I know that I must be more regular on the timing per lap if I want to win this 1 hour race.
But I must mention that I play with the PS controller and on automatic mode.
 
I've also tested the Toyota FT-1 VGT Gr.3 but still, I'm not able to lap under 2:00 with this one.

Then I've tested the Mercedes AMG GT3 '16 and then.... I felt in love with the dirty sound of this German girl 🤩
On the GT Cup Gr.3 (5 laps), I've finished in 9:57:416 with a PB at 1:57:861 !! Except for the 1st one, all laps are under 2:00 🥰
On the WTC 800 (10 laps), I've finished in 20:39:483 with a PB at 1:58:415. As I was leading, I've setup FM6 after the pits to avoid a second refueling (most of the laps were at 2:00 / 2:01 in this configuration).

According to the tyres (3) and fuel (5) consumptions in The Human Comedy race, I'll race with the HR tyres and see how it goes with the fuel.
Wish me luck!
 
I deleted the game because racing online has become ****, that's not racing, no wonder the FIA pulled out so yes after a life time of playing Gran Turismo, from PS1 to today I have stopped streaming it and deleted it. When a game becomes unfun and unfair then it's time to stop playing it!! If you want to see why you can watch it in from this link.
 
Only 1 car missing to finish Human Comedy Lake Maggiore, VW Bettle.
1 car not owned that I still could get a hold on: McLaren F1

AI victories: 2
Did not finish: 3
Fastest AI would have beaten me in 26 races, though really fast AI only was in 6 races.

Dont ever worry about AI-Yamanak, he will pull ahead with his current over-the-top car, but will always take 3 pits and never see the podium.
Also dont ever worry about fastest laps, most often these are gained when drafting, so not a regular thing to happen.

And for the competition with most presence: as long as you can get ahead of AI-Rubilar before his first or second pit, you can bait him into passing and crashing at 2 spots of the track.
This will not make him that much slower, if he ever was able to keep up to you, but if you do it 2-3 times, it will make him pit early and maybe even take one pit more in total and totally ruin his pace.
 
Yeah, your advices and your expertise are really valuable @Meythia , really appreciated :cheers:
So my objective is to be ahead Rubilar at any price.

That sounds nice can you post the tune and setup.:)
Wish granted ✨️
 
Had a few drinks then logged on and bought another 787B, made a custom livery for it and a fresh tune from scratch. Was pleasantly surprised at how stable it feels at Sardegna. My original 787B always felt a bit twitchy exiting certain turns there, but this one feels great. Got a 6 star ticket afterwards and won another Mazda LM55 VGT to sell.
 
On the Plus account, it was the Dodge Viper's turn in my retest of the Gr.4 cars at Sarthe. It was a hash of a race; 2 really, as I put intermediates on too early on run number 1, and didn't put intermediates on at all on run number 2. In the dry, the Viper will do just under 4:16 and get about 3.5 laps on fuel, while having a bit of controllable oversteer.

My 37th 3-star Wheel of Despair of 101 workout tickets this year gave the lowest-possible 5,000 Cr. Why do I get the feeling it will edge above the 44% that the current odds for those with Collector Levels between 15 and 19 have even though I'm at CE 50?

On the GTP account, I set up the Lamborghini Huracan for a 1-stop run of Sarthe by using FM 3. The weather didn't cooperate at all. I ended up doing a 4-stop/7-lap win with a heroic pass of Bishop and Blazsan on lap 7, when I finally switched to FM 1.

The 4-star marathon roulette gave something modestly-useful, a Honda NSX Gr.4. As I already had one, and it wasn't a WRS car, I sold the new one for 127,840 Cr.
 
Tried the F40 and to my surprise it handled far better than I had imagined it would. The brakes are towards the abyssmal end of the spectrum but other than that it was fine at stock. The site I used for checking the UCD and LCD has stopped updating (gtdb.io), is there any other one out there?
 
1. I love the smell of grinding in the morning in Sardegna

2. Bought the Plymouth Superbird '70 🥰

Point on my car collection:
  • still 62 to buy in Brand Central for Cr 60 750 000
  • still 24 to buy at Hagerty for Cr 216 745 000
3. Golded and silvered few licences tests: IB =fully golded - IA = missed the last one in gold for 0.163 sec - Special = still 3 bronze

4. Finished with the Toyota TS030 in Spa for 1 hour in "Sunday Cup" mode 🤩

5. Bought the Jaguar XJR-9 with the gains of the day ;)

One griiiiiiiiiiiind at Tokyo with the Escudo.

Bought the Plymouth, edited a livery to apply the Plymouth Lime Green and put the Plymouth sticker back.

Bought the Pontiac GTO too.

Got a 6* ticket for my daily marathon which gave me the minimum 500k.

Yeah, that's not so bad!
My 4* was a joke, I didn't even mentioned it :D
 
I did 2 rounds of Spa and 3 rounds of Sardegna which gave me just enough for the R92CP and 787b. I’ve now got 3 of each but I might go for a grid worth of group C cars and I already got a 4th of the 962C which is the cheapest so not sure about the other 4 yet.
 
I took the Escudo to Tokyo. Accidentally rammed an AI on lap 10 lost the CRB. I would do another run at Tokyo but slept through a couple of laps so I opened my 4* ticket and got a Lamborghini invite so I bought a Veneno finally. I painted it black with a light blue hood for some odd reason I'll blame sleepiness for that mess 🤣 Anyway I took it to Sardegna and Laguna Seca stock. It drives but it seems like it doesn't like hard braking. At Laguna Seca I went every lap on T1. Most because I didn't quite find the right braking point and after a couple times I should have been able to figure that out but you know sleepiness 😁. I plan on buying another Lambo before my invite expires so gotta go back to the grid. I think I might leave Tokyo alone for a few days and going back to my Sardegna//LeMans grind

Only one car missing of Gr.3 on Lake Maggiore.
Volkswagen VGT does what VW does best: letting fuel dissappear without providing any fun, neither speed nor cornering are any good, let alone that it is a contender for the most wasteful car on fuel consumption.

Maybe the Bug is a positive surpires as the last owned car missing - still need to see the McLaren F1 in the LCD again.
 
On Monday, I was able to no-stop Sardegna for the first time in my trusty 911 RSR. It is about 20-30 seconds slower than 1-stopping though. Did a couple of Daytona WTC800 races as well. I don't know why I only just started doing these longer races recently, they're pretty fun!
 
Working towards Golding Sardegna windmills. Rally is really fun in PSVR2. I am Still a little off for the full gold lap. I am only driving enough each weekday to get the Daily marathon, but hopefully will get it soon enough, or at least when the weekend comes and I have more time :-)
 
Logged on since end of March hoping to buy my favourite car, the Porsche 959. Sadly couldn't find it anywhere, I guess I have to wait for the legendary car dealership to refresh.

I ended up doing the Le Mans 700 grind and 2 laps around Grand Valley in the '92 NSX.
