I used the F50 in some events recently and was amazed by how good it handles. Great combination of speed and handling.
I have a warm spot for the Testarossa as it was featured in Out Run, and the 512TR in 3DO's The Need for Speed.

What a miss opportunity this demo would had been better if by getting gold on everything in the demo you can win 5M credits in GT7 that would had entice players that play the demo but don't own the game to buy the game more then just the demo alone plus it would had also thrown us that own the game a reason to play the demo.

Pretty much my selection as well, I’d also like them to add the final year (2024) of the Gen 6 Camaro SS 1LE Track Package with the lightning fast10 speed auto.

Same for the 10-speed Mustangs.

I've finally managed to find a tune that works for that damn X2019 Nations Cup menu.

I left the menu uncompleted because the Red Bull X2019 has a tendency to snap into oversteer when cornering and none of the tunes I found seemed to rectify that behaviour. After the big physics update it seemed to get even worse. Unpredictable vehicle behaviour that almost seemed destined to happen at the last laps made me give up on ever completing the menu.

So if anyone else here is stuck on that same god damn menu, here is the settings sheet:

Most of the settings came from youtube channel The Overtake GT, I just added some ballast in the rear.

It still requires some care when accelerating out of corners and there's probably ways to improve it further (I think the ballast position and weight can be optimized). I recently realized how useful the adaptive triggers are in GT7, I've always had them disabled before. Having some resistance in the R2 trigger definitely helps smoothing out the acceleration from corners.

I have my first 13 hours in with this game.

I still hate the fact there are no grid starts. All the races are basically playing chase with the first car, and the other cars basically don't matter since they drive so slowly. They are just there for you to avoid so you don't lose the clean driving bonus. And, ho boy, how many times I have lost the bonus because the AI just blindly crashes into me.

But, I really like the game and the driving mechanics aside from the deliberately hampered AI. Mazda RX-7 FD '02 is my favorite car so far, and I keep getting back to it all the time despite just buying Pagani Huyra, for example. I don't know what it is about that car, but with my tunes it is an absolute pocket rocket, handles like a karting car, drifts when needed, and I'm constantly amazed by what kind of shit I am able to pull off with it. Looks great in silver color as well.

The roulette tickets are a bit ridiculous as well, clearly weighted towards the lowest prizes, but it is what it is.

Something interesting a new Sony patent with a image of the McLaren P1.

Could this mean the Normal P1 is coming to GT7 finally or am I just looking to much into it.:messenger_pensive:

Most difficult corners?

Fuji International Speedway, the last three corners always mess me up. :messenger_downcast_sweat:

Also, I want to mention how Polyphony absolutely nailed the atmosphere on the Tokyo Expressway Tracks. Especially at night. You can almost feel the humid air when racing around.
 
Just got the game recently along with a VR headset.

What’s the best way to make money fast?
I’d also like to get a McLaren F1 asap


Edit
I’d like to see the GMA T.50 in the game

I'd go for a mix of older and newer road vehicles. It's way too hard to narrow it down to 5 though. Lol

1) 2002 Pontiac Trans Am 35th Anniversary

2) 1985 Chevy Camaro Iroc Z

3) 2025 Cadillac CT5 Black wing

4) 2003 Cadillac Sixteen Concept

5) 2025 F150 Raptor

You can do grid starts in custom races if you prefer that.

Live from NeoGAF, it's Friday Night!
What’s the best way to make money fast?
Le Mans WTC 700 (31 minutes on avarage) 825,000 CR

Spa Francorchamps WTC 800 (1 hour endurance) 1,500,000 CR
Tokyo Expressway WTC 600 (around 25 minutes) 825,000 CR

The credit values are for finishing the race with a clean race bonus.

Damn, they really want people to grind this like it’s a f2p game lol

I looked up the prices for credits, and I laughed myself out of the store. Absolutely ridiculous for a premium full priced game.

Not only do the represented events deliver the greatest amount of value in terms of credits per time, they are also some of the best races and experiences in the game available.

If you are able to beat the CE in gold first try, you have more than enough Credits to buy what you wish for within an hour. Just one example! The game drowns you in Credits early on, so what's the problem...

Question does anyone have a Base Silver color McLaren F1 '94?

I don't remember if its never appear in that color?

I have 8/9 colors only missing Base Silver to complete owning every color for the F1.

Man, I was watching a video on the SSC Tuatara. Polyphony should really go to SSC to get a car to put in the game. That car is awesome! The Aggressor model has 2200hp. We need more obscure hypercar companies like SSC, Hennessey, Koinegsegg, etc. I remember GT2 had Vector which is super obscure.

Hello, question when you do the loto thing, do you have to push a button or it won't affect the result?

I can’t get one, you have 8?!
How?
Well no I have 49 F1's

How? I been playing for 2 plus years and I'm a hardcore grinder.

I grind the 3 major payout races alot and by alot I mean.

Sardegna - 1000+ Times.
Tokyo - 3000+ Times.
Spa - 500+ Times.

Close to 400K Miles in total.

But anyway I'm back to 100M credits and I'll just wait and hope it appears in Base silver to finally complete every color for this car. (y)

Can't find XKR and Vanquish, maybe I need to look often into used cars or it's not in the game yet?
Do you mean the Jaguar XJR? if so you just missed it it was a special pick last week.


With Vanquish do you mean the Aston Martin? Cant recall its in GT7 unless its the DB11 '16

Yes Jaguar xkr yes, any idea when it's coming back?

Oh so those special picks are like rotating or something?

Vanquish Aston Martin yes. No it's different from DB11

Normal LCD rotation is 3 months I don't remember when was the last time the xkr appear as a normal lcd car.

Special picks are outside the normal lcd rotation so example if a car shows up in the normal rotation and then sold out it can show up again as a special pick the next week I seen this happen with the McLaren F1 as well as other cars.

Sadly I don't think the Vanquish is in gt7 others maybe able to answer this better since I don't know much about Aston Martin cars.

Gt7 has realy old gt3 cars so whole gr3 group need refresh with new models. Also lacking of modern hypercars (with exception of Valkyrie). Would also like to see Koenigsegg and Rimac in game.

This game is so insane so far. Holy shit I took a break from GT, I was always all in GT and completed all games until GT6 that I did play but not a lot, because of the timing, then GT sport was unique enjoyed it, but GT7 now feel like the most insane GT since 3 and 5, but it's so good to come back to this insane series, had lot of memories, i remembered that guy from school his father was CEO of Toyota in my country, and I knew more than him about Toyota it was because of GT, he was almost pissed about it 🤣

Anyway the photo mode holy shit it's so insane, the number of locations and variety is crazy, you can recreate any movie sequences in it or almost. The cars are insanely beautiful as usual in GT series and here it's next level

Now I'm gonna have to wait for XKR I must not miss it when it comes, I see Tuscan speed is available, but I'm not buying yet. The only con I have is there is no Vanquish, hopefully they will add it. There is lot of things I don't now about like invitational hopefully I can get soon my invitation for cars I want even tho far from the money need to buy haha

A little advice on invitations when you get one and don't have that car buy it if your trying to collect all the cars that is.

With invitations you may only get 1 chance to do so.

I know some users over at another forum that have been playing for over 2 years and still haven't gotten a invitation for certain brand.

Holy fuck really, you mean I may never get the Bugatti invitation ever again? Lol that's crazy

Yes my goal is get all cars in the long run, but I was also planning to get my favorite cars first. I also only have 300k atm and car cost 2 millions, I dunno if I can get this in a month. Thanks for the advice, it's very nice car anyway justyhat it wasn't my priority at first.

The Bugatti invitation is like rocking horse shit. I’m not sure if I ever received it tbh (and if I did it was very early on), and I’ve been playing weekly since launch! I can live with some of the expensive cars because I play the game a lot, so I’m never that far away from buying a car I want, but to have certain cars locked behind an invitation is the one thing I don’t like about the game.

One thing you can do to help when you get a invite is.

When you get a invite ticket after you open it and its a invite quit the game without accepting the invite remember you have a month to claiming the ticket this way the invite is not active.

Only open the ticket with the invite 1 day before it expires since then when you open the ticket and the invite is active you have another month so its like getting 2 months of having a invite which should help.
