    Gran Turismo 7

    PS4 Slim here. I've had the odd crash recently but weirdly each occurance was in the exact same spot each time. I'd be doing the Nurburgring time trial and if I hit the barrier in the Mercedes Arena section of the circuit and quickly hit pause to restart the lap again the game would just hang...

    Gran Turismo 7

    Just entered the Spa race for the first time. With my current qualifying lap I started 3rd and was 2nd half way around the 1st lap (race leader span off). Stayed on the bumper of 1st for the next couple of laps but he was showing signs of wanting to push me off circuit so I was being cautious...

    Nice to see a bit of activity in here. I'm still playing most days where I can. Primarily playing sport mode at the moment and enjoying the time trial challenges. Nice to have 3 to work on at the moment with the recent update. Had a crack at Kyoto in the 458 to see what the fuss was about and...

    Who here owns a Renaultsport?

    I've owned a Megane 275 Nav (Cup chassis spec) for approaching 6 years now. Amazing car and a rare sight on the road (as are most Renaultsport, RS Megane especially). I love the fact I can drive pretty much anywhere and more than likely not see another one. That alone is a great feeling and...

    Gran Turismo 7

    There do seem to be certain races were the AI are miles ahead and it takes a whole race of good qualifying pace laps to catch them and win. As I've played this game more, the more I hate the rolling starts and the 30-40 second spread of cars and you're always at the back... I'd much rather grid...

    Gah I thought I’d set a lap you possibly couldn’t beat :D congrats and I hope you enjoyed the challenge! I’ll get you on the next one :cool: I’ve not been on over the past few days as my partner went into labour with our second child during the early hours of Monday morning. We welcomed a...

    Gran Turismo 7

    Yeah I hadn’t played for a few days so had a chance last night to have another go. That’s the best I could set, more time across the lap so possibly a 1:45.5 like yourself (didn’t take note of my best optimal time..). Looking forward to the next one, sick of that circuit now :o

    Nice! Hell of a lap that, I spent a good hour last night trying to beat it but couldn’t even beat my own time :p I’ve just set a 1:46.252 though :cool:

    Just done a stint in the GTR around Dragon Trail. Very hard to put a lap together.. Set a best so far with a 1:46.479.

    Gran Turismo 7

    I'll upgrade to a PS5 if/when they make a revised version. I'll probably only play GT7 and maybe an F1 title or two on it I've heard good things about the NLR seats, something I may consider buying in the future along with a decent wheel. Shame you're returning yours. Will you keep the G29...

    Gran Turismo 7

    No just a standard controller (playing on a PS4 Slim). Would love a really good sim racing setup but don’t have room, time or the funds :p

    My tag is CaptainFail_172 :) Congrats! I’ve got baby number 2 due in less than a month so I fear my GT7 time will suffer :p

    Gran Turismo 7

    I comfortably got gold with a 1.28.7** or so. Don’t recall how many laps I did to achieve it, 10-15 perhaps. Don’t think the Skyline suited Red Bull Ring much.. I’ve still been playing through this most days since buying it in June. Got all golds in the license tests and all gold in missions...

    Gran Turismo 7

    Finally managed to string a decent lap together around Watkins Glen - 1:42.759. I think I could go a little quicker but I've had enough of it now :o:p If I recall, previous GT games had an arcade mode that allowed you quickly jump in and pick a circuit & car to race but GT7 seems to be lacking...

    Gran Turismo 7

    Sent you a friend request last night too Tee Hee :) I've got all gold for all licenses and doing the same for the missions too (still working through those). Often if I get a sloppy gold time I do it again to get a cleaner/faster time. Just can't help myself :p I'm really enjoying the newly...

    Gran Turismo 7

    I definitely haven’t just sat for the best part of an hour attempting to beat spaceman around Trial Mountain reverse.. Managed a 2:00.456 in a GTR in the end :cool: I also set a new personal best around Suzuka earlier today too using an AMG GT3. Wasn’t perfect but good enough to get 1:59.429. I...

    Just managed to improve my Suzuka lap time in the 911 RSR to 1:59.863. Definitely more in it, certainly a 1:59.5 but happy to have made sub 2 mins. So far I seem to be fastest with this particular car, seems to suit my driving style. Also took part in my first daily race at Suzuka. Started...

    Gran Turismo 7

    I set a 2:00.280 (ish) at Suzuka after a few laps yesterday using a rented 911 RSR. Definitely room for improvement around the lap so hoping for mid/high 1:59 when I have another go later. I think I set a high 2:03 on Trial Mountain but they weren't my finest laps. Can't say I like the reverse...
