I'm a new PS5 owner and the first game I bought was this one. Now I do have accumulated 5 million credits in 3 weeks but I haven't done this race yet since i have been grinding other tracks with less price money. I will do this one with the suggested car and setup, thanks for the guide 😀

[@klausmuhlbach1869]

You're very good at step-by-step guiding. Keep it up!

[@PhantaxRacing]

I do try to make it as easy to follow as possible 😁

[@stanislawcadenas4025]

Tried it, worked like a dream. Thanks mate.

[@vW1ll1amX]

So I did choose to buy the wet and intermediate tires, and they were super helpful, and with the help from them, I finished the race with a time of 30 minutes and 1 second

[@avz1153]

Step 1 is unlocking that track, to be honest.

[@avz1153]

I'm almost there lol

[@cally2bad]

How do you unlock that track ?

[@Patrick-nz6ej]

@@cally2bad You need to make cafe quests

[@gray-fox6789]

Yes exactly... Need to unlock the circuit first

[@skittle4181]

You need to do all menu books, and yes it will take some time but You can probably blast through them as they are super easy

[@aswathydinesh9895]

thx. it was very easy to understand and straight to the point!

Thank you 👍

[@linchester8464]

Just nice the 24H of Le Mans did feature a Chevy Camaro Nascar Cup car The #24 Garage 56 nascar that they modified, raced in the 24H of Le Mans. And what's funnier, is that the car actually spanked the LM GTEs in qualifying and later in the final results placed 39th out of 62 cars in the grid. And its a big boi when compared to the LMH cars. They suffered gearbox issues but managed to bring home the car, if not for the driveline troubles they might have placed 20th. And the video footages of the car making all those freedom as it passed the slower GTE cars. And also being the loudest car with the V8 engine on the grid when the rest of the field are running smaller engines/hybrid systems.

[@supercededman]

The first car I'd buy with 1 million credits is the Gr1 Aston Martin. Its soooooo easy to win with this car, and it can be ultra detuned for the 600pp Tokyo race if so desired.

[@arcticpenguin.]

I bought the GR.2 Audi RS5 Turbo DTM '19 for the world touring cup, and it worked great 👍

[@huthut1959]

Thank U man... It was simple and 2 the point.

I just picked up a PS5 this weekend. Thanks for the tip.

[@PhantaxRacing]

Thanks for watching. There is also another video "Ultimate beginner guide' check that out to

[@crazysithslave]

Yes this is a good idea, it can get a bit repetitive and boring doing it though. I made a video where it takes under one hour to make $750,000 credits , and does 5 different tracks....but yes your way is $1,000,000 in 1 hour so good choice! 😅 and a good cheap car to do it in. The camaro is a very nice car anyway. I did this race in my supra race car, which clicks in just under the PP limit with soft race tyres, but im at the stage where i have alot of cars already and enough money to be extravagant 😅 nice video man! Good way to get that ca$h!

[@GladkikhAlex]

Спасибо!! это реально полезно тем кто еще не достиг 50 уровня. Но у меня получилось с третьего раза так как не успевал поменять резину до начала дождя / Thanks!! this is really useful for those who have not yet reached level 50. But I did it the third time because I didn't have time to change the tires before the rain started /

[@richardcope3077]

When a small majority of us can actually do this this game gets annoying It’s like it was designed for engineers and not people just trying to play video games

[@PhantaxRacing]

Trust me I'd love it if we had a real career mode that was in depth and fun. Buying a car, racing it, trying out different tunes etc Thats why some of my builds are a bit weird and whacky lol

[@zer0coolxgaming803]

This works fine, just wasn’t clear (at least I didn’t catch it in video) that you need to adjust fuel mapping. I did the mods from video and also tossed in; racing air filter and racing clutch + flywheel. At start of race, set fuel to 6 (lean) and pit at end of lap 3 (fuel and tires) and end of lap 6 (50% fuel, no tires). Finished like +40sec over 2nd place. I left TCS on default of (5, full). I did this making several biggish mistakes. Easy money

[@PhantaxRacing]

Cool 👍

[@jesonkrewl7805]

ty for the strategy

[@elliotvazquez7629]

Thanks for that i would never win until I tried your settings 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

[@brianvic9822]

Okay so I have a slightly better strategy than this. If you're on controller you know this car handles like shit. So instead, use the Nissan R32 you get for free as a prize car during the story mode. You only unlock LeMans and the 550k race after completing menu book 39 in the Cafe. So it's endgame content. By then if you haven't spent a penny you should have more than enough money to fully upgrade, or at least upgrade as much as you can before going over 700, the R32. Make sure to buy hard tires ans wet tires. This will save you a lot of pain and suffering as the R32 will understeer a lot in the rain even with traction control turned on. So when it rains GET TO THE PITS AS FAST AS POSSIBLE to change into wet tires. The R32 has a smaller tank so I recommend keeping your fuel map on 6 (lean) for the entirety of the race. You will need to refuel every 2.5 laps. My setup for the R32 is the following: Racing hard tires & Wet Fully Customizable Suspension: 85 on both front and rear, no camber Front downforce: 126 Rear downforce: 197 Full control computer: 100 High rpm turbo Anti lag: strong Racing Intercooler Carbon brakes. Racing brake pads Weight reduction stage 1 & 2

[@Lordofpixels7]

I just started Gran Turismo, I'm gonna grind a bit today to get the car and build you said, then I'll do Le Mans 24hr!

[@PhantaxRacing]

Cool LeMans a good choice

[@Lordofpixels7]

​@@PhantaxRacingi got this car and it's absolutely demolishing the races I have unlocked. Me and my cousin will speedrun the menus to unlock lemans and the GT auto now, thanks for the tutorial!

[@jonm2522]

I was wondering why you didn't recomend a Turbo charged car over a NA car. Would it be because of the starting horsepower already. I was wondering could you buy the faster Camero ZL1 1LE with 649BHP, or not necessary.

[@hatef_hatami]

So far this is the best track to earn credits.

[@kohlrak]

So i bought the car, and have been spending a while trying to unlock the race. Only to find out it's a reward for the Camaro menu book's first race, and the race you mention still isn't unlocked yet.

[@MysticalDragon73]

Thanks for the video. It can be a bit daunting as a new player to gran turismo but not racing. so why this camaro vs the zl1? Is it because of the PP rating? Sadly I purchased the zl1 and the very next menu book, book 15, gave me both camaros so it was a bit of a waste of credits. had I known that I wouldnt have spent the credits because as a new player, they are hard to come by.

[@PhantaxRacing]

Yeah kind if. Also because its fairly fast and easy to drive

[@DutchDiabetical]

Got my second account and just did the race. 825K in the bank lets me buy 2 cars for the daily races. Thanks for a great trip. Now i can go back at streaming haha

[@PhantaxRacing]

Nice one, glad it helped 👍

[@wob-bob]

It's a 👍from me as always I like how you try and focus on helping the newer drivers out, but forgive me if I'm wrong don't you need to complete menu book 38 out of 39 to unlock circuit de le sarthe if that's the case it would take more than an hour and by the time you've completed menu book 38 shouldn't you have earned enough credits to buy a decent car. Then you could just tune or detuned to do the money grind. Sorry I hope I'm not coming across as negative I'm just a stickerler for detail.

[@PhantaxRacing]

Fair point. I was just focused on the credits earning side of things. You kind of proved my point there, as creators we assume everybody is at our level lol May have to look into a credit earner for true beginners 👍

[@wob-bob]

@@PhantaxRacing that would make for good content as from what I can see there aren't many videos focused on beginners. Unfortunately GT7 doesn't make it easy for beginners to earn credits so if you can find one you'd be helping a lot of people 👍

[@PhantaxRacing]

@@wob-bob Hmm... So what you're saying is somebody needs to make a video specifically for absolute beginners to GT7? Yeah, a video for those players who probably haven't even started the Menus yet ! (check the channel in about 30mins) 😁 Oh and I've gone for a really subtle title too...lmao

[@TCR_710-Cap]

@@PhantaxRacing For absolute beginners I'd suggest doing circuit experiences. But honestly, I can't remember what tracks are available at the very beginning, and how much you can earn with them...

[@PhantaxRacing]

@@TCR_710-Cap True. Howeruer I did a video just after this that was aimed at absolute new players which is more accurate.

[@andonisratsos1633]

Plot twist: This track is not available when you start. In fact you need to play a while to unlock it. I recently created a profile for my girlfriend and she is struggling with credits. So I was thinking maybe I do a few Circuit Experience to gain credits, but I don't want to progress or set records in her profile. What I currently do is play online and get Online Time Trials competitions bronze medals. Usually, I play only one lap and I get into a bronze medal online that pays for about 250.000 cr.

[@PhantaxRacing]

Yeah I realised that just after I made this video. I did make one that focuses on absolute beginners *(think its one or two after this one) Should be just what you need for dmdast early credits

How do you put a car on lean fuel trim

[@PhantaxRacing]

@@PerplexYT- in the display there is a sectin that shows TCS, Weather, Map etc go to the part for fuel/engine mapping. Positin 1 is fastest BUT will use the most fuel. Position 6 uses the least fuel but will be a bit slower

[@Bader_alroished]

Me too lol

[@Kegofwhoopass]

@@Bader_alroished I figured it out, you need to adjust the fuel map. Adjust the concentration of fuel going to the engine. This setting can be adjusted using the up and down directional buttons. The default setting is 'Power' (1), but adjusting the number towards 'Lean' (higher numbers) will reduce engine output in exchange for improved fuel consumption. An estimate of the number of laps you can run at the current fuel setting will also be displayed below the meter. This may be helpful for your fuel strategy in endurance races. Install a 'Fully Customisable Computer' to view/adjust fuel consumption at events where such a setting has been activated.
