The snow track is an oval, its ok with snow tyres, I had a go as there's some new menu books to complete.

 

They've added new weekly challenges, which is great imo and overall a decent update, particularly as its free. 

 

Couldn't agree more mate. This games updates, which are also free, have been getting better and better. That weekly challenge looks great and engaging. I also tried a weekly 'boosted' quick race with Sophy 2.0. Did it on intermediary level which was just 2 laps and it tested me in terms of driving standards. Good warm up quick races and a little cash to pick up too.

That you can win on the snow track by bouncing off the barriers is pure GT btw 🙃😅

Last nights races was rather interesting especially the one where i got to believe I was better than I thought I was 😅

I thought you've been improving each week mate. This past Tuesday's races I genuinely think you are getting closer. The qualifying was showing that for sure.

 

Another good set of races, albeit impromptu on Tuesday. I think if we can get more and more of us getting the game on and giving it a real good go, i'd like to get the little league up and running again....I made medals and everything ages ago for GT7 but we've waiting for the right time 😄

Of the 494 cars available in this game, i currently have 491 🤗

 

One car, a Porsche, is locked behind an invitation, so that's in the lap of the rng gods 🙈

The other two, a Ferrari and a McLaren, I'm waiting to reappear in Hagerty's Legend Cars. The Mc was there last week but very annoyingly it had sold out by the time I'd raised the 20 million required, so will have to wait for it to rotate around again...

Honestly, if the Ferrari I now need to Platinum this game sells out before I logon, I will be screwing so badly.

 

I've just found a website where they'll send you an email once the car is available in the Legend shop. It updates daily so can't see it selling out by the time i get the email. Might wanna have a look mate.

Any other way of getting invitations other than just reward tickets?

I need that Ferrari too and I'm down to 1.5 million. It'll be there a week I'd say, so it'll be touch and go...

Bloody hell mate, didn't know you needed that and you've spunked all your money away! Le Mans every day here we come 🤣

[phil bottle 10,057]

New cars and BOP update for GR 3, with one car broken and the meta until patched 🤪

 

 

[GazzaGarratt 11,219]

I've finally finished all the Cafe Menu books so now just have the Extra Menus to work on which is basically unlocking the cars. Trying to not to spend too much as I wait for the Ferrari to be on sale for the Platinum PS trophy.

 

I like the fact I should be able to save money via these menus though, as i've got 150 cars so plenty of purchases to make!

Yeah I only had 12 million by the time it sold out, but I'll need 40 million to pick up the ferrari and mclaren, so I'll just carry on.

I have some photos to take and some online races to get the platinum so might as well start doing that 🙂

Just another FYI - The Ferrari 330 P4 '67 £20m legend car is available to buy again if anyone needs it for their PS Trophy collection. @phil bottle

Of the 505 cars in the game, the only one I'm waiting on is an invitation to buy the Porsche Carrera GT '04. I might be waiting years 🤣 I have 44m credits.

I actually have 508 cars, two from Manufacturers which I already own but I don't have any other duplicate cars, so not sure why...

[phil bottle 10,057]

New patch now live, mostly a PS5 Pro update...

 

 

[slamminbones 1,857]

Not sure if it's the whole game but had a 108GB update.

Would anyone be up for a christmas endurance race?  say an hour or so of nurburgring.  

[slamminbones 1,857]

I'd be up for this could be quite fun could even throw fuel and tire wear on aswell.

Sure, why not. I don't think everyone will be into it, but we can arrange that for certain, I like nurburgring...would suggest Gr.3 or Gr.2 for it 😋

[crispymorgan 1,067]

I just want a race where if you bin it, you don't just give up because the race is so short.

Name a date and I'll set up an event for it 

[crispymorgan 1,067]

sunday 22nd?

I'll set up an event for now, 60 minutes on the Nordschleife (we don't need to add the gp track).

 

We can always amend the date later if needed.

I've been racing online.  Turns out you're all a bunch of dirty barstewards.  Been lapping fairly consistently and even managed to get a few firsts.  Still getting the hang of overtaking, but I've found for the most part, if you apply enough pressure, people tend to make a mistake.  Onwards and upwards.

Patience is the one thing most video game drivers haven't got! So if you nail that, then you'll make that way more overtakes I'm sure. I thought you've done pretty well around our 'inconsistent' driving 😅 I think you'll find we'll have more crashes together than online play. Not because we love smashing each other, as we shouldn't on this, but more because of our poor driving skills!

 

Still would love to get a few more back on GT7 so we can get some races in before we try and do another small league series. If you know anyone that would, get them to post in here.

[phil bottle 10,057]

There was an update yesterday, some minor physics tweaks to cars and tyres. Would love to see some new tracks personally...
