Good racing tonight chaps. Shame we can’t get a few more FGers to join in. Anyone else interested next week? Are other nights preferable to Tue/Wed?

Join us in doing very silly things such as driving in bad weather with the wrong tyres.

www.gran-turismo.com/us/gt7/news/00_5412323.html2.Circuit Experience - Rewards are now provided when clearing all layouts of circuits in Gold or Bronze results. If you have already achieved these results, going into the sector selection screen and exiting with the Exit button will award the prize. Is it just me, or does setting a qualifying time in Sport mode not award mileage towards the daily marathon?

Buying the Monos last night in MP has worked out for everyone that didn't have one, one of the new endurance races needs it.

Big money for doing the circuit experiences now. I shall be doing some of those later, doubt I'll ever be able do the Nordshite though.

I've been trying to do the 30 laps mission and it's damn near impossible when it starts to piss down. I guess I need to drop down to a shitter PP car and stick intermediates on?

I won that on the last lap, on hard tyres by only doing one fuel stop on lap 15/16. All the AI cars stop twice, so I made up the missing 30 seconds behind the lead car by not pitting as often.

Think iirc you can only use sports tyres. Anyway, I used the Toyota 86 Gr.B Rally Car, think I just took the turbo off and it was pretty straightforward.

Love that mission. Fantastic the way the track gradually dries out.

Yeah that's it. Ah didn't realise they did that, so maybe I can just about make it round with one pit.

Some great races last night. That rain was a real struggle at times (especially on Sports tires) but the last couple of laps when it started drying out were great.
Highlight of the night was the GR Yaris races though. A ridiculously fun drive, especially on some of the sweeping corners. For years I have had a strong loathing of them, due to the pink Yaris I was forced to race in GT3, but what a car.

Who designed this games UI? I counted last night, it took over 17 button presses to get from finishing one race, to get to the next one. To simply get off the post race reward screen takes far more than could possibly imagine>

The Mono in the wet race was very wet.

Seems my patience with the patch and circuit experience worked out. I had a few tracks in which I'd got gold for the sectors already and then just needed to do the full lap for each. From 2.5 million yesterday evening to just over 7.5 tonight.
Cafe menu 34 in progress for the AMG collection.

Christ, have you lot been competing in the missions while I was busy playing Elden Ring? Some pretty impressive results. And how did gamingdave (think it was him) manage 11 kilometers in the eco race with the blue pickup?!

You're too kind, Mr. Yamauchi: A 1 star ticket at collector level 32. So much for the rewards scaling with your level.

It's nuts that there no actual reward for going up a collector level - if collecting card is the meta game, why not reward it?
Reading the online manual, it says that in addition to roulette tickets, you can win car and money tickets.

In the lower levels I was getting cars almost every level, but I don't think I've got anything since level 25+.
Probably payback for winning a Zonda once on a ticket.

They said the ability to sell cars is coming, right?
Doubtless you'll be able to get 20 credits for it.

Those new 1 hour events are decent. Managed to hang on and pull off a 0-stop strategy on hard tyres and flicking between 4-6 fuel mix to win with Solis charging back at me 5 seconds a lap faster at the end.
