[@MusicRelatedCandy]

The sections of the track which appeared to dry a bit as the race progressed didn't seem to marry up with the lines which the cars were taking. The high line around the final banked corner was soaking, yet the lower line close to the apex was dry, even though hardly anyone took that line. Unless everyone else in the race was taking that line and we didn't see it. Weird anyway.

[@TrolledBy]

I suppose it's the predetermined racing line that dries up, and the game does not actively follow the actual line players are taking

[@MusicRelatedCandy]

@@TrolledBy Yeah must be

[@edwardalbrecht2215]

@@TrolledBy that seems like an easy fix

[@TrolledBy]

@@edwardalbrecht2215 I don't think so. Modelling a fixed, predetermined dry line seems far easier than modelling an actively changing path of dry line which tracks each individual racer for the full duration of the race

[@YT_timekiller001]

Actively calculating a dry line with 16+ players would take a lot of computing resources, which I doubt they have easily available on consoles. Also, on normal corners this would not even be that obvious, when all cars are taking the ideal line anyway. But I guess it would be an easy fix to change the position of line that's drying up in this case

[@Marco-wx2oo]

Hi Steve! i'm Zoso46, the italian BMW :D it was great racing with you! i was on wets... at the end i was struggling :(

[@M_Sebastian97]

Using the outside line at High Speed Ring leaves you feeling a different kind of high when you actually pull it off. Kind of like a race at Darlington Raceway

[@YT_timekiller001]

Yep, but it can get quite difficult in the wet. In my first race it was light rain from start to finish, and towards the end of the race the non-racing line parts were getting too wet for the intermediate tires to handle. So then it was a bit of a gamble which line to take. Even though it got more difficult to control it was still the faster line, but with a higher risk.

[@TheSpencer1000]

@@YT_timekiller001 I thought the game has dynamic grip on the wet tracks making the racing line drier, but in this race shouldnt the high line have been drier then the lower line on that bank? After all not only is that the more common racing line for the race, but water generally drains downhill. Is the grip dynamic only in the since of different weather dynamics and not effected by actual racers?

[@YT_timekiller001]

@@TheSpencer1000 My guess is that, while there is dynamic weather, the change of surface water/grip level is not dynamic (in the sense that it is done using the lines of all cars racing) but using a fixed line instead. In this case, that line is not in the correct position to what people actually use, which is why it is so different. I imagine this is to save computing resources. In normal corners this would not be an issue as all cars are using the ideal line normally.

[@Yautah]

I always preferred arcade racing games over simulators. Gran Turismo 7 is the first one that changed my opinion. I think it is probably the best racing game I ever played, and I’m even starting to like cars and real races much more because of it. The technicality, the fight for seconds, perfecting a line, a curve exit, memorizing the tracks. I only got this level of competitive fun in fighting games or FPS. But now I’m starting to become a fan of real racing because of this game. Some months ago I would never imagine myself watching this channel, and enjoying this amazing race and commentary while learning from it. And people compare Gran Turismo 7 to Forza Horizon… both great games, but completely different things. Completely! And one can only start to understand it, and appreciate the masterpiece GT7 is after starting the Sport mode, and at least studying it a little it. Amazing game, nothing like it. Amazing video. For competitive FPS we have Counter Strike. For fighting games we have Street Fighter. For racing we have the king Gran Turismo.

[@C2K777]

Good, clean, respectful racers testing each other and learning from one another ( coz i'm sure Nathan went over that replay himself to see where he was strong and weak). The goals always gonna be the win but in a race like this then the experience gained takes that sting out the tail of not get highest step on the podium

Great race Steve. I also finished this race in 2nd with IM tyre. Starting Pole position, then down to 9th place, and gained back to 2nd. Truly a unique race in a dynamic weather condition. I had the same issue on turn 1 where I lost the grip and bang to the wall with penalty (3 times!!!), then I realized I had to follow the dry line and turn early to avoid this issue. Looking forward for tonight race in Tokyo expressway in mfr cup under wet condition again. 😎

[@Obsydiian]

Races like this actually draw a lot of parallels to why Nascar racing can be exciting to watch. While yes being able to brake and have good runs off tight turns with different apexes takes a ton of skill, I'd argue it takes just as much skill judging which lines are best for every corner. Wide banked turns show this more than any in my opinion and that's why I watch Nascar just as much as any other form of racing. Takes a lot of skill to drive those tough to handle cars around a lot of those tracks when they're very close to one another while also trying to pick lines and judge runs.

[@ColeLewis92]

I love to see a track with high, variable-banking corners in this game. It changes the way you would normally approach a corner, and you can really pull a card from the NASCAR Cup Series in how to pass someone in the preferred outside line. You basically have to take a narrow line going in and overdrive the corner and allow the car to slide up to the outside wall. The only thing I wish was more prominent in GT7 is dirty air. With all those big wings and splitters, you'd think it would have a significant effect. I'd love to see the rock, paper, scissor game that is the lead car trying to take the chasing car's line into the turn to reduce the chase car's downforce and compromise their speed through the turn.

[@CrazyHorse151]

If you think about it, when you have a turn with a variable bank angle (depending on the distance to apex), you might end up with multiple lines through the curve which basically are equivalent in time. I.e., you might as well just consider them to be straights. Somebody passing on the left or on the right, doesn't really make a difference.

Dude this is absolutely correct. So I won my race in torrential rain and when I watched the replay everyone was taking the high line but I was going high then taking the mid out of the corner and I ended up winning by 11sec.

This was the most fun I've had with the game so far. My first attempt, we ended up racing with only 3 people after waiting for 20 minutes with black screen. It gave me an opportunity to figure out the wet lines. Next attempt was a full grid, qualified 2nd, and I decided to go full Wet tires for the final. By lap 3, the pole spun out and I held a comfortable lead until the pack started to catch up a bit in the last quarter of the race as the track started drying out.
