Anyone else finding GT Auto really buggy at the moment? Constant crashes and failing to load things.
What did you do in GT7 today?

Very tired from all day ,try the Tomica nissan at la sarthe, with comfortable lead at last lap and with my eyes closing i hit the barriers few times and at last one damage the car for good.
So from first went to third after Indianapolis unable to catch first guy and finish second 😱 .
Verdict: sleepy and 30 minutes race doesn't fit together 🤣 .

Pardon the ignorance here gentlemen, but did something happen with the CRB's ??.. I've raced roughly 2 dozen times lately, no crashes, no scuffs, kept it clean as hell, but at the end of each race no CRB to be seen.. not that it matters that much because I have all the cars I want, but still, I guess it's the acknowledgment factor.. not seeing the CRB post-race, eh, but still, did I miss out on something ??

Signed in with my old alt account. Forgot it has the 917K and Straßenversion. Account was at Collector Level 45. Did a couple Menu Books to bring it up to Level 46.5. I’ll bring it up to Level 50 so I can sell some duplicates. Bought the 356 coupe and 904. Thinking about making it an all Porsche garage.

Today I've taken a Porsche Cayman and put a Windsor 351 engine in it, few more tweaks and it's doing 250mph+, one minute flat laps at high speed ring, whilst there I took the Zonds out on the circuit experience, sector three let me down but otherwise golds. Total miles 40, 4* wheel of miss fortune= crank shaft Nissan GTR (again).

On the GTP account, I redid the Willow Springs Neoclassical Challenge with a Porsche 962 C using a Praiano tune. The 4-star Wheel of Despair gave the low-showing 10,000 Cr.
On the Plus account, I completed the push for the Shelby Daytona Coupe at Sarthe with the Ford Mustang Gr.4. It was a big mistake as I kept making contact, kept not getting through traffic, kept getting track-limit penalties, spinning once in rain trying to run down SuperPortilla (who kept turning sub-4:20 laps), and getting punted once in the rain by Portilla.. I finally gave up trying to get a by-the-book race the same race Portilla finally became human just long enough for pit strategy to work, getting a track-limit penalty.
My 200 miles of driving was actually rewarded as I got the more-expensive of the two legal prizes, the Peugeot 908. The other was the 2018 Nissan GT-R GT500, while the 3 coins were invalid prizes. While I hung onto the Peugeot for tuning purposes, I had enough to finally get the Shelby Daytona Cobra.

I completed the Weekly Challenges and got a 5* ticket, plus a 6* (Parts) ticket for the DM.
The 5* ticket yielded a Bugatti VGT - the first time I've won a dupe of the car that I was actually using at the time. I may keep it though, since I like to have one tuned and one stock version of cars I commonly use, and the Bugatti VGT is my VGT of choice (best of a bad bunch!).

Yesterday I lost the Grand Valley WC race (in the Bugatti VGT) by 0.075s. I also came up 0.2 miles short of the DM target... so I re-did the race, won it, and got the DM ticket... 3*, and it paid out 5k. That was the end of my day's gaming.

Last night I ran Le Mans for money reasons. I picked up the Alfa Romeo 155 and what a nice car it is. Also I went down the memory lane thinking about GT2 and the Rome super license. Good days.
Anyways, I got a 4 stars ticket which gave me an Alpine A110 '17. It is a dupe but I think I'm going to engine swapp that car.
It was a good GT7 day.

Ahhhhh, you guys should know me by now.. you know I don't leave Trial Mountain (LoL), and the races were either Hyper Car Parade or American Clubman Cup 700.. & again, i'm really not too worried about it, more than anything I just thought perhaps I missed out on something, because I've never had an issue with acquiring my CRB's.. Anyways, no big deal, perhaps I brushed a fern going around a corner.. smh..

Today's efforts, Autopolis 700wtc in a Honda NSX groupB rally car, single stop lap 7 FM6 to that point, dropped the FM2 for the final laps wins by 13 seconds.
VW Scirocco group4 at Laguna Sec, bronze time set, I'm scruffy line wise so need a lot more time to win time but I'm not where near a silver so probably won't go again.
Audi TT 3.2 on the specials race, this car really loves to turn in when provoked, four wheel drifts where the order of the day in this car, caught the lead cat end of lap one, stayed Infront throughout.
Daily wheel 10k
5* weekly challenge Porsche invite (extends the existing).

Streets of Willow Springs, one-lap attack. UGH UGH UGH UGH. That final corner. Gold on all sectors, just can’t get the gold on one lap. I’ve shaved it to four tenths off and just can’t improve. It’s only worth 500k credits anyway so I think it can get stuffed tbh. What a horrible track.
I’m running out of Circuit Experiences to gold now, the only option is to go back to the ones that really annoyed me first time round, where I just took the payout for bronze and was done with it.
it’s got me hooked again, mind.

A late day today, so just a GTP run. I did a tire practice, then an official practice at Deep Forest in the corporate Corvette Gr.3. That got me a 4-star Wheel of Despair that puked out some nitrous.
The GTWS race turned out all right; 4th on-track and 3rd after the Porsche that crossed the line first forgot he needed to run medium tires.

Having a lot of fun with my first ever wheel (Thrustmaster T300RS). Struggled with the Master S-5 license (the snow one) - no idea yet how I'll get gold on that one, I haven't figured out rallying at all.
Also gilded the last sector in the Nordschleife circuit experience, I'm now planning to do a few races with the M6 so I can attempt gold for the full lap.

I bought my 500th car today, which coincidentally also gave me 400 out of 500 unique models.
So now I know I have 400 models, and 100 dupes.

I started my setup of a custom race series based on the famed "Midnight Club" street racing team of 1990s Japan. I'm going to take various 80s, 90s and early noughties cars and tune them to around 700pp. Then I'll race them in the various nighttime tokyo expressway circuits. The in race photos I'll get should be pretty sweet as well.
Some cars I'll include:
R32, 33, and 34 GTRs
Supra RZ
Fairlady 240z and Greddy FuguZ
Mercedes 190e Evo II
Lamborghini countach
Ferrari Testarossa
Mitsubishi Lancer Evo
Subie WRX
RX7
Ferrari F40 and Testarossa
Various Silvias
If anyone has any other cars they think I should include, let me know!

I've spent some time in a S14 Sylvia at brands hatch, those tyres don't half make this a slippery kipper, lots of time to find here and there. Collected my money for the last TT. Looked at the weeklies did Willow Springs in a Honda NSX rally car. I hate willow springs.
My daughter then kicked me off and I watched her do blue moon, Watkins and Colarado.

On the GTP account, after taking my 1,000,000 Cr. for getting silver at the expired time trial, I rented a 1996 Nissan Silvia K's Aero and thrashed it around Brands Hatch just long enough to set a marginal-silver time of 1:48.6. I used the proceeds to help fund the purchase of 3 Jaguar XJ220s, one to drive stock, one to tune normally, and one to put a future swapped engine into.
The Weekly Challenges went as follows:
Needless to say I ignored the Plus account once again.
The Weekly Challenges went as follows:
- Blue Moon Bay American FR Challenge in 2:51 with a stock 2015 Ford Mustang GT
- Colorado Springs Pickup Truck Race in 4:48 with a Toyota Tundra with a custom non-racing transmission and dirt tires (did I mention how much I hate dirt tracks lately? No? It took a lot of tries to get a clean win)
- Watkins Glen Special Event in 7:02 with a Plymouth Superbird with a custom non-racing transmission (after many false runs)
- Willow Springs WRC in 13:41 with a stock Toyota 86 Gr.B
- Road Atlanta Super Formula in with a stock SF19 Honda after more than 600 miles worth of crashing, going off-track and getting brake-checked (the last run saw me get brake-checked by Fraga as he pitted a second time; I didn't have the energy to do yet another 1,000,000 runs in a futile attempt to get a CRB)

I drove a few cars around LeMans in the 700 pp race but I wasn't feeling them. I had seen an LT swapped GT86 and decided to do one in GT7. So I bought a GT 86 Limited and dropped the LT engine in it. Tuned engine all the way up to ~1100 hp and tweaked it to get to 700 pp. Initially it was a little too oversteery so I cut back on the HP and increased the front downforce. That helped tremendously in stability. I took it around LeMans for a couple of laps to see the fuel economy. I can get close to 3 laps on FM6 shirt shifting. Next I decided to try some more front downforce on my swapped S14 and helped there as well with stability. Got a Supra engine from a 6 ⭐ 🎟️

The GTWS race on the GTP account was so much a disaster, though it was a gifted 8th (1 driver waited until lap 12 to put on intermediates, the other 6 behind me either slogged through on slicks or rage-quit), I didn't bother with the Plus account.
