World's record is 6'21, impressive time and close perfect lap i think.

Right, he was added in the 1.42 update.Who you can regularly be confronted to as one of the AI cars in the game.
Oh I did not know that he was added with 1.42, I only noticed him because of his name, reminding me the lawyer of Keyser Söze in the movie Usual Suspects 😁Right, he was added in the 1.42 update.
More than difficult to keep that pace for 6+ minutes. You'd really have to be an alien.I suspect they could. But not so the lesser gods.
I think you'd probably find that to be true of most of the circuit experience gold standards. They're based on trials which were done by expert sim drivers. It's far easier for the expert driver to put together a picture perfect (and fast) single sector than it is for the expert driver to put together a picture perfect full lap. Which explains what you said there in your last sentence about the aliens.That makes sense, but the point remains; it's vastly easier to get a gold lap than to gold the sectors because you generally have to be a lot less perfect. Even the aliens couldn't gold an entire Nur lap with the exact same sector times as they achieved individually.
Dang, I barely got under 7 minutes, there's no way I'd pull that off, did he save a replay. I haven't looked yet.World's record is 6'21, impressive time and close perfect lap i think.

Ok the thread title is a bit controversial but I´ll explain why I say this.
I am an experienced Gran Turismo driver with about 20 years in the series. I was successful in many competitions during this time and made it twice to the GT Academy Final in Silverstone. I´m able to do Top 100 lap times in GT Sport and I did thousands of laps around the Nordschleife.
This is my most favourite track and I would consider my times very good there. I´m always within a range of 4-8 seconds to the world records depending on car and class.
So I went for the Nordschleife Circuit Experience and expected a one try gold. This wasn't the case and it took me several attempts to beat the gold time of 6:37.800 only by a tenth. The same challenge in GT Sport has a gold time of 6.57.900 so over 20 seconds more, while the car physics in GT7 seem to be about 5 seconds slower per lap.
So I did more laps and tried the best I could do and got a 6:34.090. Of course this lap wasn't perfect and there will be aliens doing sub 6:30 but I guess no average player will ever get close to the gold time.
From the result of past events and daily races on the Nordschleife I guess there are only a few thousand players around the world who could beat this gold time. If we assume GT7 will sell several million copies this are less than 0,1% of all players.
His lines are super insane, and he even drove the left tires on the grass and didn't get disqualified. Most of the time I do, when my tires touch the grass/railings. The hardest Sectors are 8 and 10. I lose my rhythm and get nervous and crash 60% of the time and then I end up having to start the session over.World's record is 6'21, impressive time and close perfect lap i think.

Try Monza.Only circuit experiences I have Golded were Broad Bean Raceway and Northern Isle Speedway. Any that I tried I have Bronze and Silvers only, except for Lake Louise were I have 4 Silvers and 1 Gold.
I use a controller.
.....sooooo, what do we think?Tuning a Porsche 911 997 with sport softs, LSD and adjustable suspension, I did 14 laps of which only two were clean. I managed a 7:41:something, the second clean lap, and was shaky when I quit. I dread even looking at the Experience.
Kaz, your GT7 physics... I want a patch. Soon.![]()
I don't think Kaz or PD will approve it right now, not for one person......sooooo, what do we think?
I was jokingly asking the guy I was quoting since he made that post, very likely fully unaware that such a massive physics update would happen down the line.I don't think Kaz or PD will approve it right now, not for one person.
How about Tsukuba Circuit? Thats should be a confidence boost even with a controller. Tbh, a controller isn't an excuse. One can be just have fast with a controller. A wheel won't make you any faster if you don't have your fundamentals down. Practice, practice, practice.Only circuit experiences I have Golded were Broad Bean Raceway and Northern Isle Speedway.

He never justified himself with an excuse, he merely stated his choice of peripheral.How about Tsukuba Circuit? Thats should be a confidence boost even with a controller. Tbh, a controller isn't an excuse. One can be just have fast with a controller.
And while this is true, I've tried being fast with the controller, and I can't do it. Wheel makes your life a whole lot easier, but if you've never used a wheel and always stuck to a controller, you will find that easier instead.A wheel won't make you any faster if you don't have your fundamentals down. Practice, practice, practice.
The thing is, with controllers there is a delay when you press the accelerator until it reaches 100% throttle. I could be wrong but I think I've seen players go instant full throttle with pedals.How about Tsukuba Circuit? Thats should be a confidence boost even with a controller.

That helps the context a lot. I hope you're getting on well!Edit: Almost forgot to say, I'm a bit Ambisinistrous. (Opposite of Ambidexterity.)
I was able to get a gold time on the lap attack on the Tsukuba Circuit. It only took me 5-6 minutes, it's fairly easy for a beginner/amateur to do. I find the lap attack at Autopolis to be hard, I'm not far away from the gold time, I'm at 1'40.130, about a second off. The last section is what's killing my time, causing me to lose it.How about Tsukuba Circuit? Thats should be a confidence boost even with a controller. Tbh, a controller isn't an excuse.
