What did you do in GT7 today?

[kjb]

Well I came in 3rd in the GT World Series.I was in 1st going into Mt. Panorama and I was in 2nd when it got dark and it was a struggle from there. Went the 'Ring again in the dark and started outed horribly and came in 5th. I got a 6 * ticket and won the Bugatti VGT. I started grinding to get the Tomahawk X. I think I will do the GT world Series again because I need to redeem myself for the last races.

I just recieved my first 6-Star Roulette Ticket ever...and it yielded 500 000credits...

I play GT7 since it was released but I can't remember that I got a 6-Star Ticket before...

You would have got one for completing menu book 39

 

[RPR6143 RPG]

Grinding the Tomahawk to the extreme on Tokyo to buy many copies of the 155s & Supra GT500 '97s because I want to do many liveries of them. I'm also looking for real liveries of the cars. Nobody has made a #37 Tom's Supra livery yet so I'm waiting to see if someone makes one. I'm in the process of doing a stealth model of the Supra GT500 right now (I'm doing that for my 3rd copy of the car, my 2nd copy will be the base model livery). It's so I can do custom races.

Did you finish café menus ? You receive one 6 star at the end (got 500k too with this one, and received my second one saturday, which got me 500k again)

 

[Raceface1959]

Went and visited Haggerty and cried tears of joy when I saw the Alfa in there. One of my all time fave cars. Of course I bought a couple.....and a couple of jeeps too. Then I drove the Alpha.

I thought that was a 5-star...

 

[SSQES]

Bought the Alfa 155 and took it to the Le Mans WTC700. Managed to win very easily (1 minute and 10 seconds ahead of second place). No penalties, very little contact, and two rainstorms. No problem.

Car feels great. It will sometimes get squirrelly under braking in some scenarios, but it is otherwise stable.

Did the exact thing, awesome driving (sad sounds ) and easy win. Got a 5-star ticket to win ... a new engine for a Civic Type R

Gold on Red Bull CE. EZ
Gold 3rd sector (failed to improve full lap) of Gardens CE.
Decided to have some fun with expensive cars that were sitting in the garage so I went to WTC800 at Sardegna with the 330 P4, FXX K, and Veneno and farmed up 2.4mil.
Took my winnings over to Haggerty's and picked myself up a 250 GT. Decided I didn't like the way it looked so i stripped the front and back bumper off to expose its curves and lines and then I went to the DuPont shop and bought ALL of the Ferrari paints (there are 113 so it cost over $400k). As I am sure we all learned over the weekend from Beiber, Ferrari does not like it when you paint your Ferrari non-Ferrari colors so they'll block you from buying more Ferraris.

 

[TRB1999]

(sad sounds )

Yeah. In the game, it is capable of revving to 12,000 rpm, but it surely didn’t sound the part…they need to improve the sound for this thing.

[Tenacious D]

Yesterday, I bought

• Third BMW 3.0 CSL '73 because race car!
• Aston Martin DB5 '64

Then pestered Blofeld - I mean, V. Gallo and S'willo at Tokyo for five races. Rose is a little happier about me trying not to slam my way around the track in my death machine. She was even happier when I tried the RE Amemiya RX-7, her ride, but I grew frustrated with trying to adjust to the sports hards I put on it to make it competitive, so I switched to the Murcielago again. I missed that Lambo sound anyway. I made second to Rose because of some hasty mistakes which cost me, including a five second penalty, but two following races were winners for me. That ended my day.

I mentioned to Commander Bond that there was a vintage DB5 in the game for sale, and now he's planning to get a PS5 and racing rig of his own. No doubt he'll go all out on it, sparing no expense, the hypercompetitive git. I wonder if he'll drag Felix into this virtual racing thing.

 

[Cheshyrkat]

Did my miles and wrapped up a livery for my NSX .

 

[Sunzi]

Failed Lago Maggiore Human Comedy many times.

Golded Lago Maggiore Circuit Experience comfortably, however.

Started working on Autopolis Circuit Experience. Golded all sectors, but 3 tenths off Gold for the full lap attack.

Bought the Tom's Castrol Supra.

 

[Factor41]

Mixed up the LM grind some more with my F40 and newly acquired GReddy Fugu Z - hadn't even spotted that thing lurking in the Dealership! It needs a bit of attention to tame its handling, but it's quick enough to slay the Gp.4s with a big turbo!

 

[ZEE]

I bought an Aventador SVJ to boost my car collection ranking, the car was already fast when testing at SS route X, but then I got my dirty mits on the tuning shop and tuned this bad boy up to 966bhp, then, jeez it is fast, clocked about 265mph on the SS route X and then thought to myself, hey how about I go eat down some GR.2 cars in the WTC touring 800!

Switched wheels to make it look more current than the stock meshy wheels and ze Lambo was off!

Boy was this fun, the Lambo's 4WD system is crazy and it pulls so hard on the mulsanne straight screaming it's mighty V12, but kept running out of fuel every 1.5 laps so had to play sneaky, pitting carefully & to keep up positions in the race, ended up nailing 1st with some cheeky manuevers and a last minute pit that the VIPER had to do in the penultimate to final lap.

It was a very fun race and suprised this road supercar held it's ground.

I updated my shopping list after getting the Alfas

1966 Ford GT40 Mk1 5,600,000 LCD June 4

Total 66,777,500

As there is currently nothing in limited stock and I already have the rest of the funds together, not much to do in GT7 for now. Still waiting to complete my pre 70s grid line up and an all Ferrari line up. (There are 21 total, one has to sit out, but which one)

I got a call from my local shop that they had a Series X in stock, so I bought that with a copy of Forza 7. Once I see that the grass isn't greener on the 'other side' I'll be back to GT7. Although if Forza 7 already has better AI and dynamic weather on N24, I might just stay there... Forza 8 is still a few months away, but good to get back into the Forza driving model beforehand.

First race managed to get to 4th after racing really hard with 5 other drivers all race long - it was the best of our little group during the race. Then next race got punted by some sore driver who made a mistake on the 6th lap on race C today. Driver took his/her anger out by ramming me at full speed at the hairpin. Race afterwards, got a penalty for lightly brushing past a driver at the final corner after he/she made a mistake at the corner before. Not to mention said driver was turning into me instead of utilizing the full track.

They really need to sort the penalty system out because right now, it's a joke.

Yesterday I picked up car #427 and today I reached 100 million credits.

I did Daily Race C in the car of choice for many, the Beetle Gr.3, at the combined Kyoto circuit for the first time today. I started towards the back (about 12th or 13th) with no qualifying time. Made my way up to 6th before I was requested by my brother to take out the garbage. He wouldn’t let me finish.

I had no other choice but to back out and effectively “rage quit”, causing some minor damage to my sportsmanship rating, though it remained at S rating. Disappointed. I was having an excellent drive from the near-back of the grid, dealing with some dirty drivers and rammers in a lower-ranked lobby. I was shocked I didn’t get a penalty, as jacked-up as this penalty system is.

 

[LSFDRX]

Did the PP550 Miyabi human comedy... it was fun, but another one of the missions that's just confusing as to how to win it from the outset.

Did it first with a mostly stock E46 M3, just headers, intake, exhaust and SH tires. Pitted once and came in 5th mostly because the thing is very sensitive on fresh tires, and just hard to wrangle on worn ones. Just couldn't get it to stick enough to pull it off, and it was already way down on power compared to the AI.

Then turned to my Integra Type-R, modded to 549PP to make it as competitive, and went with a no stop strategy like the game suggests. Came in third because, despite very careful driving to save the fronts they were very worn at the end, and I just couldn't hold the NSX and 8C off. Still a fun race, and I love the Integra. Went to take pics from the replay and the damn game froze before I could collect the earnings and the replay was lost too... hooray.

Then went full hammer on them and detuned my 700hp R32 back down to 370hp to fit regs, and with a one-stop ended up beating the AI by over a minute. Turns out the strategy isn't no-stopping the race, but using an AWD car that can still be balanced on throttle even with worn out tires.

Not a bad session, even with the freeze and unpredictable strategy. I wish you could see the AI setups for these races... but oh well.

Bought the legendary Supra

Hey everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster! After doing some Sport races I decided to open some roulette tickets that I had been saving up.

Well, it was a big shock when I found out that roulette tickets have an expiry date set one month from the date you receive them! So I had lost my only 6 star ticket (got from a random day, not the World Series) and multiple 5 and 4 star tickets. The joy!

 

[C4Bomber]

Beat the Catalunya circuit experience gold time by nearly a second after finding the track limits on turn 13 can be cut by a car's width inside the kerb.
Took a while to get use to the Lamborghini's handling. Smooth driving and throttle control on those long bends made this one hard to achieve.

 

[ScottPuss20]

-Bought the Alfa Romeo 155 V6 TI and drove it on the Red Bull Ring.
-Drove my Aston Martin DB5 on Sardegna Road Track A.
-Won the World Touring Car 800 race at Spa 24 in the Mercedes AMG GT3.
-Won a Chevrolet LT1 engine from the roulette wheel and swapped it into an MX-5. After I did this I immediately took the car to Monza to see how it would fare with all the extra power. It didn't fare that well but I wasn't done so I decided to tune the engine to it's full potential. 837 HP in a car the size of a shoe on Comfort Soft sounds like a recipe for disaster. Brilliant! I took it to Daytona and it was pretty much undriveable so I went back to the tuning shop for some handling upgrades. I also modified the car in GT Auto, adding a widebody, a new front splitter and sideskirts. I went back to Daytona and had a much better time of it, as I actually managed to complete a lap without crashing. It was still a pain in the arse to drive though I then took it to Le Mans because the Daytona banking was giving me the *****. Flat out I was able to hit 350KM/H. I've never driven anything quite as insane before.

 

[ICEYOU3]

Nothing, I think it's good to take a break from the game after a few sessions.

 

[jrbabbitt]

Grinding for the two Alfas...

 

[R Parkes]

Completed the 550,000 Sarthe race again so I can buy my 257th car.

 

[robisme]

One race, then same guy/car combo always wins on Tokyo, at least when I play, so today I went out of my way just to make sure he finished last lol ( blocking his every move, going slow infront of him. just to amuse myself, totally a waste of my time, but I did it anyway lol ( guess the guy who is always last, was well pleased lol)

 

[incredirog]

was expecting the usual gold rush, I’ve become accustomed to. unfortunately I came eleventh in the human comedy lake maggiore mission, first attempt, securing the bronze trophy. that’s a tough race, I’d been lured into attempting it by the consistency of my CE pace but it wasn’t fast enough for a two stopper. then I chose a random CE to cheer myself up, some where familiar, not too many sectors, Autopolis! Perfect, and Jesus that is a tough time to beat! Spent about 3 hours on it and I’m still 2tenths away from gold!
