There’s a bit of a spread of pace in this week’s GT Sport Daily Races, with a couple of high-speed race car combos and something a little more sedate.
It’s a bit of an 80s flashback in Race A, and an event that could have been in Gran Turismo 4 — or at least GT4: Online, for the lucky few who got a copy. You’ll have to pick your favorite between the AE86 twins, with the newly added Toyota Corolla Levin or the only slightly less recent Toyota Sprinter Trueno. The race takes place on a classic 80s track too in Fuji Speedway, albeit in the modern configuration. This layout swerves the chicane down at the Dunlop corner, and practice your grid starts…
Our other two options are in racing machinery. The Race C endurance event will put you in Super GT cars — extra bravery points for those of you who pick the slower 2008 models — for 12 laps of the Autopolis circuit. With 13x tire wear, strategy may well become a factor.
Things are a little simpler in Race B, which will see you take on the reverse layout of Sardegna Road Track B. It’s a straightforward five-lap scrap in Gr.3 race cars on racing hard tires, so just aim straight for the finish line.
All three races will run through to Monday, September 9.
