My little Fiat 500 has been working overtime for me. 4M credits auto-grinding yesterday and hopefully another 6M credits today. That will be enough to buy the Merc 300 in the LCD. Then more auto-grinding will have to happen to buy that Ferrari 250 when it shows up. Other than that, very little actual driving has been done by me in the last couple months.

12 more laps at Brands Hatch with a nice improvement yet not silver but so close

Improved from 1:44.435 to 1:44.041, silver is 1:44.019 now 😱 I'll give it a last go tomorrow morning.

Optimal is 1:42.188... consistency is clearly lacking... my best has only one of my best sectors...

BH lap count : 24
RBR lap count : 48

DW 4* gave 10k
 
Today grinding credits and a great online race against @NW_Saint.

Of course a little disappointed as well.

By this.

ya never know when you're going to be in need of road-side assistance.. reminded me of losing a CRB vs. the AI rides.. damn that F-VGT was flyin'..

.. my man!

Still learning how to drive with the G923 wheel after 25years with the controller, I'm in love.
Took almost an hour to feel almost confident in the Mountain Reverse track then did 3 online races.
Sweated like never before doing the Sardegna Windmills on the Toyota Yaris to get the Super License, and only for the bronze.
Completed a couple of cafè extra menù collecting cars.
 
On the Plus account, I redid Sarthe with the Hyundai Genesis. The weather was still a factor, but I planned properly this time. The engine Wheel of Despair (I didn't know those were still an option as the last one I got on this account was in April) gave a third Hellcat engine.

On the GTP account, I cruised Sarthe in the AMG SLS. It didn't rain long, but it rained hard enough and at the right time that I turned it into a 6-lap laugher.

The 4-star Wheel of Despair was useless, giving a ceramic carbon brake kit. I did grab the next 2 Gr.4 cars - the Citroen GT and Ferrari 458 Italia.
 
One run at lemans and i try again autopolis.
Wrong FM strategy lead to be far back from the leader on first pitstop.
After second pitstop i was closing the gap, 2 laps before the end with 6 second behind,i accidentally hit the hand brake button 😂 , lost about 6+ seconds rotating and managed second place 5+ seconds behind.
Don't know if i could win but it would be to the wire if was happens.
I might try again today since there's no griding " need " from LCD lately.
 
6 more laps at Brands Hatch with an improvement decent enough to make into silver finally !!

Improved from 1:43.332, thanks to another look at @Mistah_MCA's lap guide to finalize my breaking points, now that I am used to this combo a bit more

Optimal is 1:42.234... with more time spent on this TT, gold could have been in reach

Then went to RBR to try to enter the silver zone too. Done 6 more laps to slip just under the 1:20s I doubt that it will hold but I have no more time to play.

Improved from 1:20:588 to 1:19:958 (optimal 1:19.418)

BH lap count : 18
RBR lap count : 54

DW 4* gave 30k

Leaving for holidays now so won't touch my controller before the 22th, have fun with GT7 ! Fingers crossed next update will be intersting (and my 2 invite tickets will turn into invites from brands I am looking for)

More grinding including a new personal record for Sardegna in Mr. Turbo Datsun’s tune for the R92CP. The 23:46 time was my second under 24 minutes and I had a fastest lap just under 1:30! I had some credits to burn and I have enough McLaren F1’s so I grabbed another Carrera GT, another Enzo, and another FXX K. Really disappointed with the LaFerrari’s performance (I actually lost at Sardegna in it!) and I have all 3 colors so I passed on getting another of that. I’m at 950,000 collector points so just 50,000 to go to get the million. I got a 5-star ticket worth 100k.
 
Yesterday (5th)
Lots of grinding for the DB in the Legends dealership. Raced that with Geezers.

Today
1892a600ba491-9e8c7504d1b4fdd8a21b98979e2d692067aa8002-969_message_432290030784023_1688632932750.jpg

For the DHR 315hp/2251 lbs Summer Series. I had to send the Mustang out for suspension work. Bonus, I get to play with a engine swap this way. Put 2-6 from the '20 Civic for gearing. Little thing books!

Watch the race on Rumble at
Drift House Racing's Rumble

I of course finished second to last. I seem to be running 10 seconds off pace. Maybe it's a good thing there are no black flags 🤔 😅

Oh, picked up the black Boss too.

1. Banked the Cr. 2,000.000 for my 3rd gold medal (Brands Hatch) :sly:
🥇: 3
🥈: 3
🥉: 3

2. Start to lap on the new TT with the Amuse Nismo. Got a strong silver for now with 0:33.020 and I think gold should be doable for me after watching and learning on @Tidgney 's videos and comments ^^ Need to gain 0.200 for a secured yellow medal.
This new TT is much more fun than the Red Bull Racing. I've accepted to get only bronze with the Valkyrie.

3. ⭐⭐⭐⭐: Cr. 30.000
 
Some Trail Mountain R racing. Still struggling with the 2nd to last corner. Massive snap-oversteer with the NSX.

Won one race from 4th, although it was a "dirty" win.. checked the replay that it turned out that the other driver didn't force me in to the wall on purpose, so my retaliatory move (which made me win) was unnecessary. I'm sorry Mr Ferrari!
 
Continuing with my failed attempts at getting a pagani ticket by only using the pagani zonda.
Btw pagani zonda r is a very good car. Had it collecting spider webs in the garage for many month and now I realise its actually really good in 700pp and 800pp.
 
I took my Nissan Group C out to Sardegna for a quick romp. Then I took the Valkyrie to LeMans w/o chicanes to do some time trials and it beat my best time by 9 seconds. So I will probably end up retrying some of my other cars there. Got a 6 * part ticket and got an s bore up for one of the Audi's I don't have 🤣

No way that's what I got in todays 6* parts ticket stuff and got a Bore s for a Audi.:lol:

EDIT - The Bore Up s part was for the Audi TT Coupe 3.2 03 @kjb which Audi was your bore up s for lets see if we 100% match.:lol:

That's because you achieved the daily workout at the same time (or within a few seconds of each other). If you got someone to test it out with you'll see that's how it works. Kinda like it's going through a list.
 
Converted my Falken Tires/Turn 14 Distribution BRZ 2017 aka Drift Car into a 700pp Turbo road car. I swaped out the trans, tightened and flatened the suspension and was very impressed. Top 3 car in my stable for that configeration? Stupid fast at Interlagos. P1 on lap 1. Lapping cars by lap 5. I'll try the other turbo races later. Who knew?
 
Finally took the Super License using the wheel, enjoyed so much the last exam with the 917 at Spa that I probably tried that 20 times just to have fun.
Won a race of the menù GT Vision driving the ItalDesign, it's blazing fast.
Online races sport mode B.
Bought the Toyota Celica GT-FOUR Rally Car (ST205) ’95 from Hagerty....but I still have to drive it, she's a beauty it reminds me of happy years back then :)
 
On the GTP account, I collected my 1,000,000 Cr. for the now-expired time trial, then rented a mule for the new one. After 20 laps, I got it down to 33.2.

For some more credits, mileage, and a 4-star marathon ticket bearing a Genesis X GR3 (a car I didn't already have on this account), I took the Ferrari FXX K to Sardegna. That allowed me to get half the remaining Gr.4 cars - the Genesis G70, Hyundai Genesis, Lexus RC F, Mazda Atenza, and Mitsubishi Lancer. That brings me down to under 100 cars to buy and under 88,000,000 Cr. needed to buy them.

On the Plus account, I took the Porsche 911 RSR to Sardegna. It is quite neutral in handling, will do 6 laps on fuel, can probably do 15 laps on tires, and can get into the mid-1:42 bracket. The 2-tire-change 27:01 wasn't reflective of what the 911 can do - I was stuck in traffic for a few laps. Fortunately, Fraga was very much human, not getting past 5th before his first stop, which came on lap 4.

All good things must come to an end - I got my first (of likely many) 3-star Wheels of Despair this month on this account (and 3rd of 12 between the two). It puked out the low-showing 10,000 Cr.
 
Collected my paycheck from the Brands Hatch time trial, engine swapped my '81 911 Turbo, equipped a new turbo and drove it around Kyoto Driving Park. I then repainted my LS7-BRZ swapped Silvia S13 Q's and whacked the ultra-high RPM turbo onto it, before taking it to Grand Valley. The car was a pain in the arse to drive, even after I put a new wing on it. Annoyed, I bought another Silvia Q's and threw the other one in the bin. For my "new" Silvia Q's, I kept the standard engine and fully modified it. For some reason I thought it had an SR20, so I went back to the used car dealer for the S13 Silvia K's assuming that it contained the SR20. It didn't. Thankfully, I could swap in an SR20 and from there I fully modified the car and took it to the Red Bull Ring. I also bought a '95 Integra and modified it slightly to replicate a friend's car. I took it out to Fuji after that.

After running one lemans for griding purpose,i decide to run again ( 3rd time ) Autopolis to get the gold.
Right FM strategy, low number of errors lead to get it this time with more than 20 seconds over Miyazono son .
At the very last lap ,i had two !! spin offs but wasn't the handbrake this time, perhaps was due to no TC use and very bad tyres .
Started at FM2 all the way to second pitstop, after passing Miyazono on 17 lap i use FM3 till the end to cover the 25 lap .
The conclusion is that when i run with free air Infront, i can be at 23s high 24s low which happened after second pitstop even on FM3 .
Its the traffic that i was struggle a lot .
Anyway, whatever it is ,am happy with the outcome.


Use honda s660 15 with praiano tune that added lately .
