Ok, so here we go. Spring Season starts on March 2nd and each Tuesday we will dedicate one race as a League race. Points for places from 12 weekly races. Best results from 10 races count towards final tally to decide seasonal winners. This will be decided after all 12 races are done. I'll add the specific points available at the end. I'll put a league table up after race 1. Each seasonal winner will also generate points for the Grand Final in December. Spring Season weekly tracks Season_Week Track Class s1_wk1 …

Anyone can add to this but here's a few things for new players to take note. First some tips, them some etiquette. Tips Cars cost money. Money is gained by driving. Simple. In Campaign you can choose between GT League, Driving School, Mission Challenge, Circuit Experience. I'd do Circuit Experience first as it provides money. Mission Challenge and Driving School will give you free cars after various stages. Every day you play the game, you will be given a free car, so long as you drive a minimum 26 miles. Etiquette There's a quick tutorial in the Sport section. It's a requirement before you're allowed to race online. …

A spin off from what we've doing over recent months (or should I say @Greboth and @phil bottle a lot more than me!) is rather doing just time trials, selecting the weekly race, having a few practice/qualifying laps and then having a 11 lap race. Phil took me on a spin last night and it was seriously good fun, much different to our Friday night banter, smash everyone in sight, games. I think it also helps you understand more about the cars strengths/weaknesses as well as the track layout which is a massive factor if we are turning it into a race. There were minor penalties on too for cutting corners or going ignoring the speed limit which really did work when i thought ini…

So, next week's tracks have been announced and they're not great, so I'm suggesting we choose our own tracks instead. Next week it's a Gr.4 at Lago Maggiore and a Gr.1 at Spa. My suggestions are: 1. Blue Moon Gr. 3 Loads of laps 2. Sardenga Road Track (a or b) Gr.4 7 laps 3. Kyoto Driving Park - Y&M 4 or 5 laps But that's just suggestions. Would be good to sort so we know what to practice. I'll raise it tonight during GTA.

I always find it funny when important gaming information turns up in a non gaming media. This from PS5 head honcho Jim Ryan...in GQ 🙄 "GT7 has been impacted by Covid-related production challenges and therefore will shift from 2021 to 2022. With the ongoing pandemic, it’s a dynamic and changing situation and some critical aspects of game production have been slowed over the past several months. We’ll share more specifics on GT7’s release date when available.”

Following some comments on WhatsApp, thought I'd set this thread up for race requests. I know @Mikepjbell and @JBR-Kiwi are interested in trying out the rally tracks. We could do that next week if nobody is averse to it. Not a massive fan myself but always happy to give it a go. Some also like the occasional wet experience. This week's Tuesday races are back mirroring this week's GTS daily races but it doesn't always have to be me setting up the event, tracks and lobbies, so say in this thread anything you want added or changed.

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B08MTVX8VR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Arrived today and works with all consoles and PC. Wheel, pedals and shifter. Said it had force feedback but doesn't. Wheel centers and has vibration but no resistance. Will put it through its paces this week to see if it's a keeper. Kid might not let me send it back.

Here's the poll for this week! Put your votes in please!! For me whilst a few people had some moments of glory and brilliance, I think @Greboth showed his ridiculous pace on both tracks, holding off @JBR-Kiwi in the first race and absolutely destroying nearly all of us in the second. Top job mate 👏👏👏 Who and why do you think won it this week?

After Lee suggested having FG skins for our racing cars, Mike asked for the FG logo. As there’s no way to share in game you’ll need to upload it yourself Logo's currently made; I've also made 2 website decals, one lowercase and one all caps. Download; https://www.dropbox.com/sh/nb4yntiqnvmba97/AAA0q7UuMdnadYsdEDpnPkW6a?dl=0 If you need any other logos / versions of the FG logo let me know. I’ll keep the dropbox updated so it can act as a logo pack for us all. You need to go to the gt sport website to upload. Specific instructions on how to upload to follow shortly.

I thought this would be a great way to start sharing how well we thought others did in the night as no two evenings are usually the same with all of us. I think this will boost some people when they think they might not have done so well but also gives us a little highlight for each week that we can think of how others did, not just ourselves. If we can try and get one up after each Tuesday race night thats the plan but obviously if others can help me get the poll up before I get here that would be awesome stuffs. Its really easy getting a poll up and adding the names. I'll make sure it shows on the Game Hub GT Sport page too! Great racing everyone…

I've been thinking about trying out manual gears for some time now on Gt Sport as I know its generally faster times you can get however at the best of times there's a lot to concentrate on, let alone then change gears as you race. So are there any helpful tips on what to look out for, how to change gears, etc. I appreciate I know how to do it in real life but racing in a virtual world is very different to the real thing! Likely to start out on controller but obviously tips for people with racing wheel's are welcome too as I'd love to own one in the future. Cheers all!

It's £7.99 right now on PS store until 19 Jan, not sure what that is in dollars. There'll be 10 - 12 of us on tonight, and more each week it seems, so if you've not got it, get it, and if you've got it, get in😊

I'm wanting to suggest more tracks each week with our regular GT Sport races slot gathering lots of interest of late. So I thought i'd open it up to everyone. For me, Sardegna and Willow Springs in Gr.4 cars can lead to seriously close times and very rewarding when you nail the laps. They're not super hard tracks to race on but there a small areas where you can work on each lap to get faster and better at the corners. They would absolutely lead to interesting races for sure. And yes, Blue Moon Speedway is basically nearly an oval but surprisingly made for interesting races (and yes I did win that one but thats not the point …

I think we have enough people to consider starting a league. Obviously not right away, as some newer players need some time with the game. But I'm thinking of doing a league by season, kind of like Gran Turismo do. My suggestion: 1 league race a week. 12 league races per season. Points for places. Final league table will take your top 9 points from 12 races. You have to pick one car manufacturer at the beginning of each season which will the one you use for all FG league races that season. I can share the planned tracks and power levels in advance of each season and share results on a weekly basis. Grand Final at the…

As an experiment I'm going to set out times for tonight and see if we can stick to them. Race 1 Practice = 8pm - 8.20pm Race 1 Qualifying = 8.20pm - 8.30pm Race 1 = 8.30pm Race 2 Practice = 9pm - 9.20pm Race 2 Qualifying = 9.20pm - 9.30pm Race 2 = 9.30pm Race 3 Practice = 10pm - 10.20pm Race 3 Qualifying = 10.20pm - 10.30pm Race 3 = 10.30pm
