I learned an expensive lesson today, I should take need to what I tell others and it is basically "with great power therefore is much responsibility" Without control the horsepower is useless.
I had taken my Maserati

and added a lot of power to it and finding out the hard way that no amount of suspension tuning could tame the unstable mess I made.
So I went to the parts place and bought a new motor to restore the factory specs and now with careful adjustments to suspension and small increase in HP I now have a great driving car.
 
Last night I decided to give my Enzo's a rest, peeked in the garage & thought hmmmm what would be fun to drive ??.. hence, although a VGT, I almost forgot that I had it.. very very fast, and cornering is ridiculous.. gotta admit, for sitting around collecting dust it is one bad mf'er.. So below is a replay of race #1 of a trifecta at TM/HCP that wasn't even fair.. blew the field to pieces in all 3 races.. smh..



..the Tributo is up next!

Nothing, I am watching the Rolex 24 at Daytona
I spent a few days this week racing a BMW M4 at Daytona to enhance the race on TV. It really helps in identifying the camera angles and understanding racing lines (and when they aren’t in a racing line 😵‍💫). I got up at 2:00 AM PST to finish out the race. My favorite part is the night transition into sunrise. Pretty competitive between Penske Porsche and BMW
 
Today I did the Historic Race Masters race at Spa, which is part of the currently weekly challenge set. It was double action for my classic Porsche cars. First I did it with a 911 turbo '81 (stock but with sport hard tyres) and then next I used a Carrera '73 (stock with comfort tyres).

The daily marathon ticket gave me a 6 stars ticket and its despicable wheel dropped a Mitsubishi VGT. Sold it right away.

Then I spent some time at Nurburgring with a Civic eg '93 trying to tune its suspension and LSD. Got a lap around the 8 minutes mark.

Fun day driving cool cars at cool tracks.

Edit: later today I had another gaming session and recorded a lap around the ring with my Civic. There's still room for improvement for sure, but quite happy with it. VTEC is life. 😎

Hoping to do some laps of the current online time trial featuring Gr.3 @ the Daytona Road Course this evening, seeing how I haven't tried that one yet. Not to mention that I'm hoping that this upcoming week's Daily Race A is a bit more interesting to me.

I boot up GT7 today because I was so upset with Black Ops 6's campaign and wanted to forget. Like... why zombies??? Once the Nuketown mannequins started spawning in I know I was in for some hot garbage.

First went through all of the weekly challenges as lazily as I could.

Bought a duplicate HiAce and did a few laps around Tokyo Expressway Central.

Participated in some gasp GT Cup Gr.3 races at Deep Forest and RBR, the latter being surprisingly boring. The C7 is now 8 miles behind the SLS AMG for most driven car in the category.

Sold my S Barker Tourer and some other cars to scrounge up some money for the XJ13. Got the final 'big' trophy, then promptly sold all 3 legendary cars. Repurchased both Pagani models in the dealership.

Purchased the Jaguar D-type and Audi R18 TDI. Completed the final scapes-related trophies and now have the platinum. :)

Tuesday is not an usual gaming day for me, but I had 30 mins to spare and booted the PS4 to check on both the UCD and LCD.

At the UCD I bought a VW '66 (I'm trying to complete a set with all colors), a Civic Touring Car in red, a Ferrari 512 BB with a beautiful tone of gray. From the LCD I brought to my garage an E-TYPE '61 with the classic British Racing Green paint job.

Then I sold copies of the cars I mentioned just because I prefer the colors on the new ones. Also.... I sold my Ferrari 250 GTO. I test drove it today again and completed my daily workout marathon, only to realize I prefer the Shelby Daytona as a classic GT car with a 20M price tag.

The despicable wheel from a 6 stars ticket gave me a black La Ferrari. Which I sold right away since I have a Rosso Corsa already collecting dust in my garage.

Unexpectedly nice GT7 day.

You got a Black La Ferrari for free ? and turned right around and sold it ?

BLASPHEMY!! (LoL).. i'll be back!

(Edited: some 5 hours later)

Ok then, so here's what I did with my La'Ferrari.. ftr.. (check the details, it's not stock..)

.. IMO, you gave this away ??.. (build it/dial it/hype it/drop it to gravel level..) when you could easily go to TM/HCP and earn yourself an ez buck 50 & blow the field to pieces.. smh.. not sure of your intentions, but to me personally this car easily rivals my Enzo's, very fast, very well handling.. you need to get that Corsa outta' your garage bra'.. just sayin'..

@NW_Saint the Hyper Car Parade at Trial Mountain is a very good event! As a matter of fact I used to do it to complete my daily marathon mileage. And you did a very good job at it!

I only sold the black La Ferrari because I already had another one, painted rosso corsa. Invitation cars are keepers for sure.

Sent you a PSN friend request. 😎
 
I finally got to turn on the PlayStation and have a 2 hour drive.
I decided that I definitely needed to improve so my mission now is to get gold in all circuit experience.

A few weeks ago I finished the super license and got the Audi and then got the Nissan gr2 car that was on my to buy list.

Also came with a little surprise
