1. Visited Le Mans for credits and weather reasons.
Got the CRB, some rain at the middle of lap 4 (put the inter. at the end of lap 3) and a beautiful sunny sky from middle of lap 5 till the end.

2. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ : Cr. 500.000 :sly:

3. Bought the Mc Laren F1 GTR at LCD for Cr. 12.500.000 :)

4. Golded 2 CE (Fuji and Atlanta) for credits reasons 👍 Replays are available on my page.

5. Improved some sectors on various circuits experiences (some american friends will have surprises tomorrow :dopey:)

6. Need to gain Cr. 6.000.000 to buy the Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta. As I don't expect any TT reward next thursday, I will race alternatively at Le Mans and Spa.

Holly Guacamole my dear friends and stay safe as you roll!
 
Had to work the whole weekend so today I woke up early to drive... but I wasn't on the mood. I bronzed the National A test and called it a day. Also didn't understand why I didn't get the ambulance in the garage but I guess that happens later today?
 
I tried the Suzuka Gr.2 TT for the first time tonight and it went pretty much as I expected.

I managed to get within inside 4% of the top time in just 6 laps, but think I will struggle to get anywhere near a gold...

NSX '16 around Suzuka is something I've practiced a lot in the past, and so although I got a comfortable silver very easily, I don't think I have another 1.2 - 1.4s in me, so a Silver it will likely stay.

That's a little bit better than the 8 million I have and I want to get the 20 million Daytona 😞
 
On the Plus account, I ran the Red Bull Junior around a rather wet Sarthe. I could have done a 6-lap laugher, but I wanted to see how many cars I could physically lap. That turned out to be 2.

The 6th 3-star Wheel of Despair of 17 on this account this month (and, pending the GTP run, 9th of 33) puked out the lowest-possible 10,000 Cr. I'm well on my way to the 7th month of 8 this year where I get more than my share of 3-star Wheels of Despair.

On the GTP account, I tried for an 8-lap run at Sarthe with the Honda NSX Gr.B by setting FM to 4 and making only 1 stop. The weather had other ideas - a pretty good rainshower on lap 5 kept me from having any chance.

The all-cash 4-star Wheel of Despair pushed out the low-showing/lowest-possible 10,000 Cr. That left me short of buying the next 1,000,000-Cr. car.
 
I bought a 92 NSX, 3 Tuscans & a Suzuki VGT. I had one when they first came but I had sold because I couldn't use it at Sardegna.

At that time that was my main grind race. I upgraded the VGT & made a quick livery for it and went to LeMans. Got to the end lap 2 and it started raining. Very heavy unfortunately for me I don't pit so it was a struggle at first the AI was crashing like I was but they must have switched tires mid track because they were able to go much faster and not spin.
So I fell to 14th place and there was a yellow flag and I passed by the car that crashed and got penalized so I quit the race. The thing I don't understand is why are there never yellow flags when I crash 🤔.
Anyway took the VGT to Sardegna to how would fare and it looks like I might be able to make it work I just have tweak it to run there. It would probably require 2 stops.
Got my daily marathon but I didn't open it right away. I took one of my Huaryas mad maxed it out tried at Sardegna but it only gave like 3 laps on FM6. I can between 2-2.5 laps with it LeMans depending on my tune.
Got the last invite I needed from Citroen from a ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 🎟️ and I promptly went and got 2 GTs. I plan on getting at least 2-3 more

Its Tuesday 3am ish, ran my 30 minute grind at LeMans with my '66 Ford GT40 on RM tyres. Light rain (stage 1) started mid lap 3, pitted on end of 5 for fuel only, kept the RMs on with little red showing, ran out the remaining laps 6&7 and finished in 1st with ease.
 
1. Golded some CE sectors, trying to get as close as possible to the demos and if possible faster than my friends ^^

2. Ran 2 twice on Le Mans for credits reasons with the following weather forceasts for the Pr. @smoothbore12:
  • rain from lap 3 to lap 5, needed the inter. tyres with one pit stop only.
  • rain at lap 3, nothing on the 4th, rain on the 5th, 1 pit stop before 3rd lap for inter. + refuel.
3. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ : body parts for the NSX '17 (worth Cr. 300.000)


Still need to grind Cr. 4.200.000 to buy the Ferrari 250 GT at LCD
 
I FINALLY got my A/S rating back. What a pain that was.

Here's what I don't understand. if there's contact that is a strike against your SR, why are you not given a penalty for it IN THE RACE? Then the feedback would be immediate and the impact on the outcome of the race would be immediate.

Yes, there's many like me who want the prestige of an A/S rating, but there's many who just want the position/win and don't care about the ratings.

Anyway, I guess I have to continue to be selective with when I race to avoid times when the least careful players are online. I don't want to have to go through all this again.
 
Since I was out sick today I got a chance to play earlier than I normally. So I took my new Citroen GT Road Car to LeMans. I was getting about 2.5 - 3 laps I believe. Rain started coming down going into lap 3. It wasn't hard at first but the time I got over by the 2nd chicane I crashed into the barrier because I couldn't stop. Spun a couple of more times and Portilla came by me but later by the Porsche curve he crashed and of course there was a yellow flag. So I couldn't pass him. I pitted on lap 3 and I stayed on the wets as it was coming down really hard. I was able to swap going into lap 6 and I spun coming out of the pit because apparently water just pools there. Won my 6th lap. I still had about 1. 5 hr left before I would have to go get my children from school. So I took the Suzuki VGT again to redeem yesterday. This race I paid attention to the sky as it turned dark before the the rain showed on the radar. So I pittted at the end of lap 2. Another heavy rain race but it wasn't a problem this time around and stayed on wets until they started to wear out around lap 5. Coming out of the pit I spun again 🤣 🤷‍♂️ . Next time I will pay attention I race there. Got a Mustang Gr B from a 🌟🌟🌟🎫

Wait if the car in front you crashes and it brings out a yellow flag your allow to pass that car without losing the CRB.
 
Am not sure that you loose the CRB nowadays.
I accidentally pass a car ( due to high speed) under yellow flag and right after i got a penalty of 3 seconds and got the CRB .
And wasn't the one cause the yellow flags, was on the line in front of me.

In the past,i loose it once .
Also i don't know if you pass more cars what happens and am not willing to find out 😂.

@05XR8 has right ,if you pass the car that cause the yellow flags ( usually is of track or ready to enter the track ) nothing happens.

1. Couldn't lap below 1:53.1xx at Suzuka this morning, despite following @Dolph Drago 's ghost. I don't understand what's wrong with me on this TT.... :banghead: Will try the Audi and the Lexus but I'm pretty sure the issue isn't the car.

2. Went to Le Mans for credits reasons and for the Weather Forecats researches for the famous Pr. @smoothbore12 from the University of Athens.
  • Rain from beginning 3rd lap till the end of the 5th with some clearings during 4th lap. Need the inter. tyres at the end of the 2nd lap and thanks to a careful drive, I could manage them till the end.
3. ⭐⭐⭐: Nitro system for the Misubishi Lancer Final Gr.B road car (worth Cr. 100.000)

Been busy getting older and been away.
Taken time to get back in mood for gaming and other games were higher on my restart list than "30 Minutes of Le Mans Turismo ".
Any way, picked up the ambulance yesterday and ran a couple of fun races at Monza with the tannoy blaring out Japanese... :lol:
Today I ran Le Mans. Despite the forecast from our resident "Michael Fish" @smoothbore12 (Google him ;) ) it was dry throughout with just a bank of cloud on lap 3 that was shaped like South America.

2 possible discussion points for everyone:

A) Is it a coincidence that the Le Mans weather seems to be in line with my local weather. Today was warm and sunny in the UK. Recently the UK weather has been changeable (read that as 💩 ) and I was having similar weather at Le Mans. Today is the first time in ages I can remember such a dry race 🤔

B) What cloud formations have you seen in GT7? I have noticed an Alien egg shaped hole in the cloud before now. And South America appeared today...
 
Hmmmm.. well, decided to give my prize-E a break, stepped into the garage, peeked around & thought "what's my Deutschland got goin' on ?".. and so..

.. yup, less than 1K, time to spin her up..

& while not as fast/quick as my Enzo, still very formidable.. love that Porsche handling through the corners, so tight..

have a great night/day gentlemen..

Yesterday, I began cleaning out my garages of both cars that either had useless parts or that I had more than I needed, and good parts that fit onto cars I had multiples of. On the Plus account, that meant cleaning out the GT by Citroen Road Car (which was replaced as I had an invite), 2015 Honda Civic, Ferrari FXX K (even though I didn't have an invite) and the Gr.4-beating Ford Focus RS (which was replaced, but not immediately re-tuned). On the GTP account, I parted with my Gr.4-beating Focus and a Ferrari 308 GTB. I ran out of time to race.

Today was Sardegna grind day. On the GTP account, I used the Lexus SC430 GT500 to get a 4-star roulette ticket granting a camshaft S for the GranTurismo S, which I found mildly amusing. I took a break from buying cars that I didn't have to get start getting second copies of WRS vehicles I had only one of, getting the Chevrolet Corvette C7 Gr.4 and SF19 Toyota. I still have the Audi R18 and Pagani Zonda R to get second copies of.

I started swapping engines, at least if I had enough for at least one full set if all the cars eligible are also eligible for the wide body. Swapped engines went into the Jeep (twice), Abarth 595 (twice), 1990 Mazda RX-7 (twice), 1969 Nissan Fairlady (twice), Nissan Z Performance (twice), Ford Focus RS (twice), 2008 Nissan Fairlady (twice), Ferrari F40 (once), Amuse NISMO (once) and RE Amemiya (once).

On the Plus account, I used the 2008 Nissan GT-R GT500 to get my SEVENTH 3-star Wheel of Despair of 18 (and 10 of 36 between the two accounts), which puked out the lowest-possible 5,000 Cr.
