Never did multi player, but in the days of GT1 and 3, my buddy and I would take turns driving on endurance races. One would drive, while the other would "pit crew" and watch gas and tires so the driver could just drive. And maybe give out some reminders of upcoming turns. Of course, that was in our late teens/early 20s, so pit crew would also sample any herbal remedies... Miss these days for sure!

I used to do split-screen races with my uncle in Gran Turismo 3, it was the second game he gave me for PS2 in 2001. We'd always do either Super Speedway or Test Track because he only knew how to turn left, but with boost assist on, it actually made for some fun times and close races.

Hello Steve! My friend group and I still do LAN parties to this day on Gran Turismo. We play GT4 on PS2s to this day. We have racing rigs, team colors & gear. Since GT4 was the last GT with LAN, we decided to stay on GT4 to keep the tradition going. My friend group and I get together quarterly for race night and we've been doing this for the past 26 years. We've got a structured league/season format & a love for racing. We do play other racing games but nothing can possibly outlast GT4. LAN in GT7 would be life-changing for us all!

[@daniellee4003]

GT5 has working LAN with mods if you're willing to set up HEN on some PS3s :')

We had a race series in gt5 and played in teams of 4 drivers. So it was 4v4 when 2 teams played each other and we had F1 style point awarded, one team picked the track, the other picked the car, and the first team who picked the track also chose the PP limit of the car and they had full tuning so we would study the tuning for the week leading up to the race. I remember my team making the grand final at Grand Valley in the MX5 😂 we won the championship and i recorded it with a handycam next to my setup, it's an old video on this channel and it didn't age the best but brings back great memories.

[@s0lsticefr4]

I remember a 1v1 against my brother on a one lap race on Laguna Seca, I won overtaking on the main straight to the finish line, pretty close indeed. just don't pay attention to the fact I was driving the formula car and he was driving the GT500 Nismo GT-R...

Not randomly though. He was putting them up when he hit the brakes - as a mini airbrake presumably

It often happens when using a controller. The left stick accidentally gets pushed in while steering triggering the headlight flashing.

[@RowdyGT]

Gran Turismo 4’s online servers were remade a couple years ago and I’ve done quite a lot of racing on it. It definitely has a heavy nostalgic feel to it even though online in particular was not something I experienced ‘back in my day 👴🏼’

[@Shaft0]

Imagine if polyphony made the effort to have a team of employees dedicated to setting up and balancing 'random' cars around tracks like this, once a week/month.

[@SR1Records]

That last corner is the most important corner of the entire track! So much time to be gained there!

[@nighttrain1565]

What I miss the most from early Gran Turismo online racing is the open car selection and tuning. The races were regulated only by PP and weight and sometimes drivetrain. You could have a tuned up ZO6 Corvette racing with GT3 cars. People could run different compound tires too. I really enjoyed those days because you could make really oddball cars compete and it was funny to see.

[@Shaft0]

Yup Barely any opportunities to race 'your' car only in gran turismo, unless its changed since i last played.

Dear PD, Please make an online championship featuring fun low HP cars like these instead of big fancy championships with GR3/4, Super Formulas, and Red Bull X2019's. This is better racing than 99% of your daily B's and C's. MX-5 has an official IMSA series, Radicals are always great fun, what about shifter karts? Not everyone wants the same boring GR.X around big international race tracks. People will forgive races without strategy or weather if the racing between everyone is close, genuine, and enjoyable. - The real fans.

[@Tasmanaut]

split screen multiplayer in gt4 was amazing with a friend. We had an honour system, if someone spun out or fell behind we'd wait, depending on the size of the error. The only acceptable victory was in a close race, nose to tail, with defensive driving and bold overtaking tactics being the name of the game. Nothing can beat the autum ring with 276bhp class Japanese cars.

Watched the livestream. Never has a driver been more deserving of a punting than in the second race, ( I haven't watched that far yet, but I'm guessing it's the Scott Chegg race).

[@PaulTheFox1988]

One of my favourite gran turismo multiplayer experiences (although not my absolute favourite) was going over to a friend's house to play gt3, he was using a wheel and he handed me a controller and I wiped the floor with him handily despite his claims of being better because of the wheel He didn't like that, so he gave me the wheel (a crap cheap unit) knowing that I had zero experience with one, and he took the controller, and started a new race It took me 3 laps to go from multiple 10's of seconds down to being right on his tail and in contention for first, I still lost, but the race ended up still being an embarrassing moment for that friend because he had all the advantages and was shit talking the whole way round, right up until he found himself having to desperately defend against me 😂 That wheel was awful, it snapped back to dead centre, had less than 180 degrees of rotation, and was gritty feeling and rattly, and that friend didn't keep it long given how crap it was

This race is a perfect low stakes training ground for racing closely and staying calm.

For me. Even playing this game since GT first launched, the quintessential GT experience is racing with SNAIL on the GTPlanet forums in GT5. GT5s physics were a lot of fun.

My first memories of playing video games includes GT1 and Crash team racing on the PS1. We use to have these 2 controllers with little wheel nobs on them and a trigger on the bottom for the gas. We lost the memory cards really early on while having the system. So we only ever had the starting cars and tracks. But me being 4 years old didn’t care. I just liked driving fast cars on a race track. 🤣. (I actually don’t remember how old I was but it definitely was before Kindergarten.)

You can tell the American and European servers are much different enviroments by the behavior. The blue miata driver was making mistakes all while he was in front of SuperGT even though he was successfully blocking him for several laps, probably losing his cool thinking that SuperGT is going to push him wide like the grey miata driver did right after, so when he makes the wrong call on the same corner he could have snapped or could have actually perceived that he was forced off his line. this race is looking very fun tho and I'm thinking I'll have to hop on.
