2. Buy the other 2 as well.

3. Enjoy those 3 great Ferrari hyper cars. (y)

Haha thanks, I'll try to buy all of them.

It was so random, just before log out, I was looking at café menus, then I go to Toyota buy bunch of cool and cheap cars that got me 2 menus. And got me 2 4*tickets. I roll first I got few money like 30000. The second one I see Ferrari invite and I'm like no way it will stop on Ferrari, but it stop on Ferrari. And I just confirmed it not taking risk to lose it in case some update shadow drop.

Now all I want is Aston Martin invitation.

Man, feels like some of the missions are practically impossible to gold as of now.
I managed to bronze the last mission in The Sun Also Rises (Bathurst Gr.3 Battle) by exiting and re-entering the race until the opposing cars lineup was somewhat manageble. Getting gold on that one seems completely out of reach.

It would be great if Polyphony tweaked these races somewhat to work better post 1.49. After the physics update pretty much every car handles differently and you're shit out of luck when you're locked down to a specified car with tuning settings from before the update. It's possible that they have made some adjustments but in cases like the mission mentioned above it's practically impossible to gold.

I discarded it since I have no use for it and I'm not a fan of VGT cars.

I've bought this one, it's insanely good, I would even say it's cheap, like a broken character in a fighting game. The only vgt I bought si far.

Btw what is considered the best F1 in the game? The other day I got the Honda one in roulette, I did some races with it recently it felt good and smooth.

How are you all feeling about the new F1? Is it the one from GT3?

Il hesitating on buying, and I will 100% buy if it's the GT3 one.

How does a passion project not focus on the very thing they're passionate about?

Cars, racing, even sponsorships from IMSA drivers, etc..

Yeah, they don't really show they care about racing much more than driving, at least for GT7... having the CH-R has it's charm but what about the BMW's, the Ferrari's, the GT3 cars... I think it's hopeless to wait for those, maybe on a GT Sport 2. It's been 3 years, they could have updated all the GT3 offerings. I've given up about those, maybe GT8. This CH-R is a crappy crappy car though, jesus.

We need another 80s and 90s Civic or two that look and perform the same as the other model but had an extra letter in the name. 🤭

What car you guys use for Tokyo 600?

Are you taking about the 825K grind race?

If so I used to use the Suzuki rally car and just wall ride the first wall easy win in around 22/23 minutes.

Now I use my P1 GTR perfectly set to 600.00pp and just ride the first wall for a easy win in around 25/26 minutes.

Now if your talking about doing that race without wall riding then I have no clue since I never done that race without wall riding. :messenger_grinning_sweat::pie_invert:

Ok gotcha. Do you get the clean reward though.

Btw this is funny, wall reading Escudo Pikes peak was my main tech in gt2 and early GT3 when I was still total noob n the game. I didn't though it was still a thing, but now you do get your car damaged. This car was my top 1 car in gt2, nice memories

Guess the Suzuki is from legendary car , still never seen it yet in the game.

P1 gtr is a Nissan I guess? I will look later.

No McLaren P1 GTR. :messenger_grinning_sweat:

Yes you will still get the 825k clean race bonus just don't hit any AI cars and don't cross the white like at the final turn before the long straight.

I take pictures during replay but don't find them in library, is it a bug or did I miss something?

Did you save them via GT7 ? if so check your showcase race photo.

Or did you use the PS5 capture button to save the race photo? if so check the ps5 media where all your photos and gameplay videos are saved.

I did via GT7, nothing in showcase race, very weird I tried again and still nothing. I captured the last hour of gameplay to be sure I captured those and I indeed did, but just don't show up in in game gallery

So I just used PS5 screen cap, for now it's the only way I guess

I got this Pagani while ago via roulette, while I find the interior looks very cool, wasn't impressed with the exterior, but it was due to its color I guess, now with this new design color it looks incredible imo. Driving this car in rainy Tokyo looks phenomenal, need to take some pics some day of this, for now here some scape pics of this beauty

Bought the last Ferrari the one that cost 3.6M. it's pretty good, La Ferrari is alright as well, Enzo is the best and most of the 3 indeed. Btw my favorite thing to do in GTS was going to Tokyo and Enzo And F40.

One car I want to mention is 911' 97. It one of my favorite car to drive in the game so far.
