tnk'u, I'll try your setting: I didn't know cars could be tuned

No worries, it doesn't happen very often does it🤣

I'll give the penalty system the benefit of the doubt, it probably couldn't tell who was at fault in that mess, so just gave everybody one🤣I can deal with that....just😂

@fuzzy-daddy83 😂😂congrats with the p1 tho. Amazing comeback and you just about dodged that divebomb in the end! Great race!

Thanks man😁👍, I have no idea how these guys drive at +5, even with stability on and counter steer assist I would be all over the place😂It's either Porsche or Supra here for fast laps but the McLaren has always been a great allrounder. It is all about driving styles and how you feel in the car, some people suit different cars. Might all change again in the update tomorrow though. They always mess with the cars in updates.

@ I like the McLaren, I’ll give the Supra another shot and adjust the BB, maybe it’ll be better for me. And I hope they don’t change any of the cars again, if they do Just don’t change the ones I like to drive. 😂

Grazie amico😁😁

I had my doubts, but couldn't get the plate to check

@ you don’t need a plate, a real rumble bee pickup truck only came out in 2004-2005 regular cab two doors with either yellow or black color ways and it’s a dodge ram they never came out in dakotas or anything else or any other years

Okay so it's a wannabe, it's still cool. I did use inverted commas in the title as I wasn't sure it was real. Like unicorn sh*t in the UK anyway.

Thanks buddy, I know, I think the Bugatti had to save fuel, so slower in the race than qualifying. Still decent points, not that it matters as I missed the first 2 rounds. On the plus side, he did get a 5 second penalty, I was in shock😂😂

@fuzzy-daddy83 😂 Yeah I only did the 1st round. Then my subscription ended. Still a 750k expected reward! :0

Thank you🙂👍

Yeah it's not a bad time that mate. The Aliens are in the 25's at the moment, and if I can get within 2-3 seconds of them I would be happy👍

@@fuzzy-daddy83 Thanks! I'll keep grinding! :))

No probs. I actually prefer the track this way around, I'm much faster on this reverse layout for some reason😂

@@fuzzy-daddy83 I think I have the opposite 😅. I find the braking points much more difficult to get right. I don't really have braking points I just brake by muscle memory 😂

Thanks bud😁👍 I can see myself doing a few races here this week

Thanks matey, was a fun comeback😁👍

Thanks bud, yeah pretty much. When you enter the cup races it puts you in a league either gt1,2 or 3 depending on the DR rating at the time of entry. GT1 is A or higher, GT2 is for B, GT3 C or lower. However, you can increase your DR beyond the league ratings. I've seen A ranks in the GT2 league because they've increased their DR. Keep pushing, it's all about practice, just keep it fun🙂👍✌

Thanks bud, yeah I always try and keep my SR up, that plan failed spectacularly on this account which was my main, now my fun account is higher than my main, go figure😂Racing from the back is always more fun. I like driving different cars, and if I've set a lap in a meta car, that always ends in disaster and people start pushing past, so I start at the back and stay out of trouble....usually🤣

Thanks buddy😁👍

Thanks bud. Yeah you can change the BB, it was on 0 for this lap. I tend to leave it on 0 for road cars, maybe -1 if it's a bit tail happy +1 if it's like a truck😂. The F40 is not the best car to drive, it's got massive random understeer but it's fast, especially on the straight and up hill. The Mazda is very quick but handles like i's on ice. If you happen to feel brave and have a go in the Supra, avoid curbs like the plague. The suspension is rock hard and it bounces like it's on the moon, its quite funny. I find the easiest to handle is the Corvette, it's great on the curbs too, just lacks a bit of straight line speed. It's a long track to learn quickly with lot's of quirky corners. It's definitely a momentum track, you get one corner wrong and you suffer for the rest of the lap. Shame the DR doesn't update on race A, I think I've done most of week here, if I won the lottery I would live here. It's one ticked off the bucket list and I would love to go back. 😁Sorry for the essay by the way😂

Tnanks😁👍

@@496Cubes Thanks bud 👍 I got a 1month ban for calling someone an idiot once🤣 I think I've got a vid on here somewhere, ironically that was suzuka as well. I don't think PD are interested in updating the penalty system now. It used to be super strict but everyone complained. No it's relaxed everyone is still complaining so they've just left it. What people wanted would have required live stewards for every race and that's just not possible. I'll take the rough with the smooth😁

Sound like a typical GT7 race at the moment🤣it's getting worse. If you watch my race c video from today, the guy that took me out got no penalty at all. It's a good combo this one but the punting is annoying. I said this week was going to be carnage and I fully expect to get reset at some point again, my temper will get the better of me😂

@ I completely understand My temper started to flare up this morning after the second race, I had to stop and do outside work to calm down😂😂😂 Here’s to tomorrow being a better day for both of us racing. I’ll check out race C on my next break😎

🤣LOL that wasn't intentional......honest it wasn't!😁

I didn't, I did a few Daily A's on Sunday night, and to say they didn't go to plan would be an understatement SR drops bumped me down to B, and then a few rage quits dropped me to C, I just had a really bad night😭🤣

Yeah looks like we're still having server issues.

@fuzzy-daddy83 hope it gets fixed soon.

Thanks bud, erm short answer is no. The penalty system is a big talking point at the moment, and people have learnt how to commit professional fouls if you like. The system is broken. Yeah the easiest way is to qualify higher, but at the same time that won't stop someone from behind using you as a brake. You can get yourself into a spiral like I did last night, best thing to do then is take a break, don't race angry. It is nice ranking up and racing faster people, but if you concentrate solely on that the game stops being fun too. Deep breaths 🫣👍✌

@fuzzy-daddy83 thanks for the advice man!

Thanks bud🙂👍

Thanks bud🙂👍It's such a fast race, I'd say too fast for Gr.1 but that's what makes it fun and different. The Bugatti is waaaaay too OP now though, it's grip is just daft.

Bugatti was tough but I managed this fastest time. Toyota TS030 Hybrid '12 is my car choice for the races. 👍🏻

Cheers buddy. The Audi has DRS😁Yeah been having a few issues lately, not me personally, but there is always someone that goes down to 1 bar, and it screws everyone. Clearing the temporary data in the game options can help.

Thanks bud👍I didn't expect quite so much action in a long race like this. I was trying to dummy the guy behind to pit before me but he wasn't having it🤣I was praying for a tiny mistake and it finally came, I enjoyed this one.😃

Yeah I like driving the road cars. I miss the old shuffle racing they did on GT5 and 6, where you had a PP limit, and got given a road car within that limit and raced, could be anything, sometimes good, sometimes bad, but great fun.

Aw that's so annoying. When they do that, you that was their plan all along, congrats on the podium though😁👍 I think I could have kept pace with the guy in the Corvette, but I couldn't have passed him, I needed his tow😂he was fast

It jumped out of nowhere🤣Maybe I was pushing my luck hanging it out there. It's a note for future though, never expect anyone to leave you racing room. Been one of those days today😒🤯💥🤬

@@fuzzy-daddy83 I've had a lot of wasted races today

I think everyone just forgets their head on Mondays. New track, no practice and chaos ensues. Was a bit better today, still some plums about though.

Grazie🙂👍, è molto veloce in linea retta. Adesso so che Max è uno da evitare🤣

Thanks bud, yeah I need to stop getting involved in these things. It just winds me up. Oh the Italian, madmax? oh he did, he admitted it in the comments afterwards. Vilassa is the one I feel sorry for, he was innocent, nothing he could do to avoid hitting me. I like this layout thought. May do most of my races here, Spa is a little too long for me. Keep pushing 😁👍✌

Yeah and I would again if you did the same thing. What you have "tried" to call me out on was a bit of tit for tat, he pushed me, I pushed him. You on the other hand just pushed without any provocation from me what so ever, tap tap tap tap until I went off. Yes the Toyota is slower, so find a way around, no through. Pushing someone just because they are slower IS clownish behaviour, no respect at all.

Thanks, I mean it was still a decent result, but oh what could have been. I was on pole as well, should have just let him go for a lap, I dunno, what's done is done, on with the next one😑

Thanks bud, appreciated. I was smooth until I spun 😂 it is one of my favourite tracks though, whenever it pops into the daily races I'll spend most of my time there. It's a hard track to get right, especially over the top of the mountain, the up hill and down hill twisty bits.

Grazie Mille 😁👍

I thought that at first, but I didn't feel anything, I made the apex, I must have hurt his manhood😂

Yeah, some of the best races I've had have been lower down, people use a bigger selection of cars too, that makes it more interesting. Those cars are a good shout, the Huracan and GTR for race B are the fastest, maybe even the G70. Race C, the 2020 version of the AMG GT is very good, I think the Porsche is the faster car, although it is trickier to drive as the tyres wear out, and again the GTR is very good👍

@@fuzzy-daddy83 Thanks! I'll try the GTR for B!

@@MetalCorpsYT I tell a lie with regards to Race C, I've just gone faster in the Corvette?! It's so stable over the chicane, you gain so much time there, it's acceleration is also stupid!

@@fuzzy-daddy83 wow! I don't have the corvette yet but once I get it I wil try it too!

Thanks buddy. Yeah he was a bit fiery😂 B is a pain, when I drop back down (often), it takes ages to get that last little bit. It seems like it gets stuck on a full DR bar for 3 races or so before you move up, frustrating because it's not any cleaner, if anything A and A+ can be worse. Good luck with your DR push, hopefully see you on track soon😁👍

Hi, I don't think so. There is a very fine line between the time lost changing tyres, and the time lost on worn out tyres. Not changing gives you track position, but you will be vulnerable for the last couple of laps. It's a tough one this week.

lol very cautious😂I've got a few Spanish friends on my account, I think their reputation has been surpassed by the French lately, or even the Italians😂 Every race is a lottery at the moment🤣

Thanks bud, congrats on the podium🙂👍Yeah it's stable, the Huracan is faster though. The Veyron can kick it's tail out under hard braking, but man is it heavy. Great up the hill, but trying to force it through that last chicane is like trying to get a pig through a cat flap, fun frustrating people though, they can't pass it easily😉😁

@@fuzzy-daddy83 I like the analogy there🤣

You do lose time changing tyres, but not much, maybe 2-3 seconds over not changing, but you are much faster in those last couple of laps when the others have dead tyres. You can make places up then, but that's also when they get desperate. They see you gaining and defend like their life depends on it😂

Thanks buddy🙂👍and congratulations. Yeah DR and SR, S sportsmanship is good, that will help your driver rating a lot. Don't focus too hard on your DR, just have fun and that will come naturally. Avoiding incidents with other people is the hardest part but sometimes you just get idiots out to ruin everything. It's sometimes hard but not getting involved is key, not retaliating (guilty), that can send you into a downward spiral as far as SR and DR are concerned. Keep pushing😁✌

@@fuzzy-daddy83 Thanks!

Thanks matey🙂The Porsche has really good handling and top speed, but not much left for a slipstream. The Ferrari seems to be very fast on the straights but struggles a bit in the corners. It's all swings and roundabouts.

@@fuzzy-daddy83 Well I’m happy to report I went back into qualifying with the F40 and managed a 2:09.8 A little better, it’s carnage in Daily A though I can’t get a clean lap in without getting punted into the wall, then I have to serve a penalty It’s crazy

Thanks, yeah it is really stable. The Supra has a higher top speed, but the acceleration and stability in corners is much better in the Vette. Sounds better too imo😁

Thanks buddy🙂👍 I dunno about civil, the first few races on B I did this morning were like driving in GTA😂I think they will calm down as the week goes on though....hopefully😂
