Am about half click away to buy my first 20 million car 🤔
Talking about gto Ferrari, the other option is to buy a second F40 ( perhaps and a second enzo ) and wait for tomorrow what will be up in 429 place .
The bad thing with all those 20 million old cars is that you can't use them .
Its like being there for " cosmetic" reasons since they can't participate even at historic car races .
Don't know what to do but i have to decide till tomorrow, with 100 millions in the " bank " i must spend .

Any " push " idea might be helpful since many of you being in my place in the past .

If I were you, I would be generous and give half of my credits to a good French friend :sly: but as you don't consider this option, then it's only on you to decide based on your objectives.

I buy cars only to complete the collection, not to drive them (I only drive max 10 cars). Grinding for banking billions isn't fun anymore, that's why I've stopped to race 5 times Le Mans per day. Now, I gain credits with TTs, circuit experiences and I also gain more driving skills.

I bought it yesterday. Ran some 600pp events stock on rh tires and Ferrari challenges. As you can expect from a 20M car it can fly

Sometimes I come back here, go figure...anyways today I rebooted GT7 after a long time, also because of FFXVI, and since I was short on money I decided to do some farming. Started with a quick Sardegna on the RS5, I was so much out of shape! But in the end, the car is OP so I did manage to rack some cash.

Now, the main reason I wanted to play again is because this August I'll probably take a trip to the Nurburgring and thus wanted to train a bit, since my car is in the game, however the one I had in my garage was already quite modified; decided to go all in, thanks to my Sardegna money, and did the LT7 swap thanks to the new feature. Car was hard to tame, tried Praiano's tune for the same-swapped BRZ but thing was still a monster. Eventually lowered the rear ballast to 120kg instead of 200, switched to RM tires, and the magic was done! What a car, had to run 8 laps even though I messed up quite a lot.

Now that the car had repaid itself with some return, I went back to my original intent of playing. So bought another 2016 GT86, just did a few tweaks to recreate my real life car as much as I could, found some random Italian plates in the livery editor, and there ya go!

Time to learn the Ring as much as possible, since I need to bring the car back home in one piece!
 
Long day that was...

Kicked off with another bid to get into gold at BB Raceway time trial. Managed that with switching to MT (driving AT exclusively) since it's a two gearshift track. But boy, my brain still feels overheated. Cannot operate MT with controller properly.

That effort gave me 6-star ticket (parts) - meh!

Ran few Sardegna races, quite relaxed effort, no best time chasing, but in the process the mileage turned 10 thousand in my trusty Nissan R92CP (how many Sardegnas is that?)
NissanR92CP-10k.jpg


Visited LCD - left with Ferrari GTO (my first 20mil car in this game!) and Toyota GT-Four Rally

Finished off with another few Sardegnas... gotta have that F40 (XJR-9 would be fine as well)
 
I played the game for the first time after three days and got a six star parts ticket for winning the Le Mans half hour event. It's the second time I've received a high value ticket after having a couple of days off.
 
On the Plus account, I went to the BMW Z4 GT3 at Sardegna. It isn't a bad car - mostly neutral handling, manageable tire wear (I didn't need to change tires), and 1:43 times while getting about 5.6 laps per tank. Fraga woke up a bit late, and I used lapped traffic as a pick on the last lap to get the win in 26:51.

The 4-star workout roulette punched out a 2021 Subaru BRZ. I hung onto it for now.

On the GTP account, I used the most-recent Gr.3 purchase (the Honda NSX) to win a too-tight Sardegna. Fraga was on it early and often, but the third lapped car on lap 15 trapped him.

The 4-star marathon roulette gave a Nissan R92CP engine. Wonders never cease. I bought the Hyundai Genesis Gr.3 and the Nissan GT-R Gr.B.
 
I bought a 450k car to move from 100 millions and did 3 small races to get the daily workout ticket.
The new car at LCD as i see it now, its a Ford that i already have , don't know yet if the GTO will be at my garage later on the day .
If i calculate it right are 6 cars at 20 million price tag right now with the majority being there for historical and griding purposes i can add.

In a few am gonna get my 13 years old daughter to spend some days with me and gt7 can wait.
Have a good Sunday guys .

Enjoy your holidays with your daughter, my friend :)
 
I took a break from sport mode races because it was frustrating and found it way more fun to make my own custom races where I put myself at a huge disadvantage. I tried some daily races and it was the same if not worse for dirty drivers. It's just blatant now and ridiculous. I've been gaming online since its inception with DOOM death matches and can say with confidence that this is a direct reflection of society and how messed up it is now.

How can that be fun to sit there all day just ramming people. Waiting 10 minutes then ramming more people. Repeat... I mean I guess that's better than them shooting up a school but then what?! For me this is a dead game basically. I want to race competitively with others but it's impossible with all the psychos and brain dead goons.

I want there to be an internet license that keeps track of all your interactions like in any other sector of society. Then you can suspend the license or terminate the license of pedophiles, degenerates and also see all these red flags from crazies before they do something crazy. The government can see everything you do (yes even in incognito mode) anyways so why not put it to good use?

I bought the Rampage car let my daughter choose the color then painted it and made a quick livery for it. I maxed it out then detuned for LeMans. I was get almost 3 laps by some aggressive short shifting. Ran out of gas 3/4 of the way thru lap 3 and lost about a 50 second lead but regained it after lap 4 . I pitted on lap 5 to a lap 3 scenario. I switched to the 917k to LeMans and got spun going into Mulsanne and dropped from 13th to 20th. Work my way to 1st going into lap 3. Heavy rain comes through and I end up with 27 seconds of penalties for going off track limits during the heavy rain. I kinda didn't like that but oh well. Needless to say I got passed by quite a few cars who could miraculously drive in Wet conditions flawlessly. So I changed to wets and dropped to 10th place. I was able to regain the lead and finish on lap 6. I got 10k from a 4* ticket 🎫. I bought like three cars from the UCD for swap purposes.
 
Damn , didn't expect this .
I saw a vid with it and read a comment at Praiano tunes for it and i said , what the hell, am gonna try it.
Am talking about Bugatti VGT gr1 at Sartegna.
What a smooth ride !!!!! Its not the fastest but is a wonderful ride.
First time i catch my self enjoying this track , without missing the brake points, without the rear end trying to be in front at low speed corners , without hitting the barriers on that tricky corner .
Damn , i think ill stuck with it and why not.
I did two races in a row !!!!
I wasn't a fan of this race ,did some runs with various cars but the easiness that this car " offers " is second to none from what i try so far .
After 73 Porsche ( which am waiting to buy more copies) that Bugatti bring the smile in my face while i was playing.

What a coincidence last night I was using new gr1 cars on Sardegna when I got to the bugatti VGT gr1 after I changed a few settings and took it to sardegna after a few laps I was blown away by how good it handles its like a cross between a gr1 and gt3 car.

Its become 1 of my top 3 favorite cars for sardegna and like you say its not the fastest but the braking and cornering make up for the lack of speed I highly recommended this car.👍

My best time with it so far.

On the Plus account, I did double duty. First, I took the Toyota FT-1 VGT Gr.3 to Sardegna. It's a pretty typical Gr.3, turning mostly 1:43s, but capable of breaking into the 1:42s at the end of a run. Rear tires do become an issue if you try to run 15 laps with them. My 1-tire-change 27:00 was good enough for the win because Fraga faded.

I then dusted off the Red Bull Junior and went to Sarthe. I must be a bit rusty with that car, or the tune didn't age well - I was slower than I remember being on either account. The 4-star Wheel of Despair dispensed the lowest-possible/low-showing 10,000 Cr.

On the GTP account, I accidentally triggered qualifying in the Toyota online race (my third as I missed rounds 3 and 4) with a rented 86, and qualified 12th of 14 (mostly D/B drivers, with the other E/A driver starting 7th and a few dirtier drivers) after sandbagging the lap on a track I'm not very comfortable at. I let the carnage go on in front of me while I (barely) kept it on the track. I eventually settled into 6th and a fast lap of 1:35.2 (overall fast lap in the race was 1:34.7), and got a little too comfortable in Mercedes-Arena on the last lap. Fortunately, nobody was around, and I kept it straight and on the track. I wouldn't have quite caught 5th (the other E/A driver) anyway, but I was closing. If I had known about the end-of-season awards, I would have tried to run rounds 3 and 4 - I probably would have made the top 30% in the various GT3 categories. At least my SR is up to S for some reason - probably because I'm not aggressive or fast.

As I already had a 4-star ticket waiting for me, I used the 2008 Honda NSX GT500 at Sardegna and the tuned Honda NSX rally car at Sarthe for the cash. It was the usual Wheel of Despair lowest-showing/lowest-possible 10,000 Cr., which meant I could only buy three 450,000-Cr. cars - the Jaguar F-type Gr.3, the Mazda RX-Vision GT3 (even though I already have the stealth version) and the Subaru WRX Gr.B (the last Gr.B I needed to get).
 
Bought the ‘96 and ‘98 Lancer Evo’s. Ran LeMans once each. Got a Toyota 86 GRMN From the wheel. Another excellent car. Ran that at LeMans, too. With only 444hp, not the fastest, but great handling and brakes. It’ll be a great Custom Race car.

I did the Daily Race at LM and was horribly mismatched - didn't have much of a chance, but still managed to gain 7 places and finish 5th, albeit thanks to two cars infront of me not doing the mandatory tyre change. The 'winner' also ended up in 4th place for not using the mandatory tyre combo - after 102 miles and over 40 mins of racing, that has got to hurt!

But once again my race was compromised by a dick who would rather mess with someone than concentrate on their own race. The irony is that they would have won but for the 4 laps or so that they deliberately balked me. Why do people do that? Is it possible to block people that behave like this?

Otherwise it was quite good fun - and finally I got a Driver Rating increase for my trouble. I probably would have been alot better had I qualified first and used a better car though - the Peugeot just cannot cut it against the Saubers at LM!

I’m in the home stretch of my mission to get a million collector points. I need about 13,000 more and I have over 12 million credits so it’s just a matter of one more grind race and deciding what I’m going to buy to get there.

I’m getting a lot better with the wheel but I’m really struggling to get trail braking right like I could with the controller. I have a tendency to jerk the wheel too hard when I let off the brake pedal and I end up understeering instead of getting more rotation. I was able to win the Neoclassic, Gr. 1, and Super Formula races with the wheel which was great fun going that fast in VR with the wheel. I find the faster race cars are much easier to handle compared with modified road cars that are overpowered and lack downforce. The lack of feedback from my pedals is something I miss from the dual sense that made wheel spin easier to catch but hopefully I will get where I want to be when it comes to counter steering.

On the Plus account, I dusted off the Alpine A220 at a soggy Sarthe. The 4-star Wheel of Despair gave the lowest-possible 10,000 Cr., but I bought the Chevrolet Corvette concept as it came back into Hagerty's. 13 cars, and 145,750,000 Cr., to go to a full garage.

On the GTP account, I used the Dodge Viper Gr.4 at an even-soggier Sarthe. The seventh 3-star Wheel of Despair of 16 this month (and 10th of 32 between the 2 accounts) puked out the lowest-possible 5,000 Cr. on an all-cash wheel. Still, I had enough to get the next 2 fake Gr.3's - the Mazda Atenza and Mitsubishi Lancer.
