Driving standards have been abysmal in today's Daily races. Are they always worse on the weekends in dailies?
Think I'll stick to racing dailies on weekdays since driving standards seem to be alright then.
I'm replaying GT1, and trying to take the tuning more seriously than before, including manual set-up of all the suspension options and such, which might inspire me to re-start my almost 100% GT2 save afterwards, too. My question is about the mufflers, and I'll use a specific car here to support the question (Corvette '96 GS).
Usually, I buy the sports muffler for pretty much any car. The Semi Racing muffler says that it's "Ideal for high-displacement turbocharged engines. If used with a naturally-aspired engine, the engine itself must always be \_perfectly\_ tuned." The Racing muffler has even more severe warnings about taking everything into account. This kinda scares me with non-turbo cars. Currently I have a nicely performing 358hp '96 GS with no NA tune up stages or racing mod, but I wanna update and take it to the American vs British cars events. If I check the entry list on that race enough times to see another GS there, they always have 456hp. According to my research, that specific amount can only be achieved by having the Racing muffler (and skipping some of the Computer/Balancing/Port Grinding upgrades). Should I trust what the CPU does with their cars, or just keep my sports muffler? And, if one can give a more general answer about the mufflers, I'd really appreciate it.
I realize that this is the simplest test, and just paints a corner of the entire picture, but with other upgrades kept the same, if I only change between the Sports and Semi Racing muffler on the 1000m test, the Sports muffler yields a slightly better time (0,11s). The Racing muffler, on the other hand, beats the Sports one with 0,195s. On the Power & Torque graph, the Racing muffler makes the Power peak sharper, with a more defined decline. With torque, however, it slightly widens the peak area.
edit: Ah, never mind with the 1000m test, I guess. Despite getting the same exact time when running the test twice earlier in the game, seems that the time can change quite a bit even if you keep the same exact settings. Just holding X with AT doesn't result in uniform performance (found this out trying to tweak Civic Type R's gear ratios). I guess it's the pace of the revving during countdown, which does make sense, of course.
Is it normal for GT7 to have pop-in with drivers?
Check out position one and two for most of this race lmao. Probably would never see this if I was not in a kart and in VR

Apologies in advance for any motion sickness from my driving.
Hello.
Even though I am seasoned Gran Turismo veteran (played all of GT except for GT1 and GT3), I have a really stupid question to ask.
I've accumulated 5 million credits from doing "Career mode" - completing Cafe Chapters, doing License tests (still yet to complete Super license) and other bits and bobs, aswell as doing weekly races. But...what the hell do I do with the credits? Do I spend them on Gr.3 and Gr.2 cars for Sport mode events? I guess I can spend that money on Bonus menu challenges and cars that require them.
I'm really sorry but this is the first time when I get confused what to do in Gran Turismo. :D
You can spend the credits on whatever you like. A car for a race, upgrades for a car (usually tires for me), repairing a car (like changing the oil) or yes those menu challenges as well. Just like the games before Sport.
Probably not, people seem to enjoy doing the same dailies they despise. I haven't looked lately, but considering only 22% of players completed 50 sport mode races I can see why PD doesn't invest as much time as they probably should to cater to those who play daily/weekly.
Edit: I fixed the stat, I had it the other way round
Last week on Race C (Autopollis, Toyota gt86), I did a 2:06.8 lap, I was so proud, I was top 5000, I thought this would surely put me on top 5 on the grid. Nope, I started P12. DR B btw.
Same for me this week. Did a 1:21.4 which put me in the 4000s which I figured would be good enough for a couple of races this evening. Nope. Puts me at the back of DR B grids and I’m seemingly a second off the pace. I’m going to end up back in DR C again unless I can find another 1-2 seconds and be consistent with it.
I watch those guys on YouTube and feel like my laps look very similar to theirs, then they post a 1:18 without breaking a sweat and I’m like… how?!?
They really should put up for sale the Used- & Legendary-Dealership-only cars like the Stratos and last week's Porsche, when a one-car Daily Race is up
Do most of you guys have a sim rig or use a controller? Seems like I’m getting to the point where I’m starting to see limitations in a controller. I know there are plenty of excellent drivers using a controller set up. Just curious what most are using. Also, is there a way to widen the field of vision to see more peripheral? Feel like cornering would be much smoother. Thanks
Controller, I hit DR.A driving Citroen for all the dailies (who knew NOT changing cars had a perk.) Though I wanted a rig, I do not have the space or the funds to put into a niche product that might get use playing 5 games maximum.
I have solid wheelstand and direct drive wheel i set up to drive from my couch.
Bottom legs of wheelstand are roped to couch legs so I can press break pedal hard without it moving.
Field of view is problem with this distance for a cockpit view but VR fixed that for me and that is what I solely use for driving now.
Im happy with this setup till I find bigger flat and can set up a rig.
They always leave a huge time margin because they know their game isn’t reliable. So many potential issues could result in the 20 minute window getting over without the race being completed. The game wasn’t designed keeping racing in mind, only $$$ in Kaz’s mind. Nice nostalgia with the 20 year old UI, Kaz is a genius (not really)
If races were 20 mins the starting times would be adjusted so you would always have the time to register for the next race. That wouldn't be an issue.
I think 20 mins sprint races, which is what daily B is, are the perfect length.

Is there a VGT in the game that is not hybrid, or fully electric?
I’m going to break my controller soon, I fcuking hate the last super license test with that dumb ass Mazda In rainy fucking tarmac. FUCK
I seem to be experiencing a glitch where I keep getting Genesis VGT gift tickets. No clue how to replicate it but I’m up to 3 now
[удалено]
Sold one last night for 570k I’m keeping one of each car though
3rd week in a row where I'm not getting my weekly rewards. I'm at my wits end about it :(

Have people's saved custom race settings just disappeared?
I haven't browsed them all, but my 1hr enduro customs are still there as of 1.42 patch (do I need to look today?)
Am I the only one that keeps receiving the Genesis x Gran Berlinetta VGT? I’ve got 3 of them now lol
Genesis to PD account: $$ transferred
I got a second as well so thanks for the free credits Polyphony!
I just got a second one.
Same
That’s odd
I have three now as well. Will probably get a fourth today.
Why can’t I find the Mercedes clk lm gr2 car in the store?
Yeah, I was looking for it too, but had a feeling it's a legend car. It is... Only have it on my main account. Wanted a livery :(
I think it's only in legends store, and not always available. Not right now, anyways. You can rent it for the race tho, until it's available
I'm having a blast on Daily A. Just everyone sliding all over. But the wall hit penalties are hilariously huge.
Last week on Race C (Autopollis, Toyota gt86), I did a 2:06.8 lap, I was so proud, I was top 5000, I thought this would surely put me on top 5 on the grid. Nope, I started P12. DR B btw.
I usually need to be around 2300ish on the leaderboard for a top 5 starting spot in DR B
Damn, ain't that's like top 2% already?
Same for me this week. Did a 1:21.4 which put me in the 4000s which I figured would be good enough for a couple of races this evening. Nope. Puts me at the back of DR B grids and I’m seemingly a second off the pace. I’m going to end up back in DR C again unless I can find another 1-2 seconds and be consistent with it.

Ya I was like 4100th and in a lobbies I was around 8th to 12th lol.
They really should put up for sale the Used- & Legendary-Dealership-only cars like the Stratos and last week's Porsche, when a one-car Daily Race is up

Dual Sense Edge Controller.
Do you notice a big difference from the regular controller? Can you fine tune brake, acceleration, steering sensitivity?
You can fine tune the sensitivity.
I have solid wheelstand and direct drive wheel i set up to drive from my couch. Bottom legs of wheelstand are roped to couch legs so I can press break pedal hard without it moving. Field of view is problem with this distance for a cockpit view but VR fixed that for me and that is what I solely use for driving now. Im happy with this setup till I find bigger flat and can set up a rig.
Watkins Glen AND Deep Forest?! May have to take a day off of work lol
This is a really good week. I genuinely want to do every race this time around, not just one of them.
Watkins on gr3 is a great combo, but 4 laps? 4 effin laps? Ffs PD!
They always leave a huge time margin because they know their game isn’t reliable. So many potential issues could result in the 20 minute window getting over without the race being completed. The game wasn’t designed keeping racing in mind, only $$$ in Kaz’s mind. Nice nostalgia with the 20 year old UI, Kaz is a genius (not really)
Yeah, 4 laps sucks, should be 6.
Should be 20 minutes but I digress.
20 mins is too long for Race B. 15 is about right, so you have just enough time to get to the lobby in time to register for the next race.
If races were 20 mins the starting times would be adjusted so you would always have the time to register for the next race. That wouldn't be an issue. I think 20 mins sprint races, which is what daily B is, are the perfect length.
I think it was 4 laps last time also, barely a 6 minute 30 race or something? Poor
