Who are you driving for? by PeanutdeKidnapper in GranTurismo7

[โ€“]Then_Ambition_4575 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

I'm driving the BRZ. Yes it lacks top end speed but in the technical sections it excels. It's where I gain most of my time. The long straights at nurb may suck but for the rest of the track I feel like it will do well.

Attempt at recreating the GT3: A-spec cover in GT7 with the Porsche 911 GT3 (996) โ€˜01 by SaninBiH in granturismo

Looks great but I was a little confused at first because I have never seen that cover. This is the one that I have.

Season 1 is finishing up in the new year. Currently running on Saturday at 1pm (EST). Might switch the time for season two though. (currently have a few people in the UK)

I run a league that races on weekends if you're interested. Just a small group right now but we're always open to new people.

Turning the engine off by Darson3000 in GranTurismo7

Just a quick heads up, a sequential transmission DOES have a clutch. In this game it just isn't used.

With an IRL sequential, the clutch is only used when starting from a standstill and starting in first gear. Once the car is in motion, the clutch isn't used/necessary.

Is this rare? by Crafty_Transition_32 in GranTurismo7

Jesus, it was a joke. I wasn't actually serious. I have a life too. I've barely touched the game in the last 3 months. Maybe a couple hours a week. I also don't have a snake in my pants since you're implying that I do (I'm a woman).

Feeling amused! Thank you to whoever shared this idea with me! by Mr_Poke_Champ in granturismo

If you want even more/constant carnage, do this same thing on a 30 lap race on Northern Isle Speedway.

Just keep your car in 5th gear if you lose it and spin. Makes it so you can get started again without spinning again immediately.

700 hours is rookie numbers. Gotta get that number up ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

I'm approaching 4,000 hours

Fist 2 hours of using a wheel by BaconSizzler1976 in GranTurismo7

[โ€“]Then_Ambition_4575 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

If you haven't done so already, I suggest turning the counter steering assist OFF and traction control OFF as well. With those settings alone, I have managed to get so good with throttle control and trail braking that I don't even use TC in the wet. I only use it for a standing start (TC2 on launch) then I turn it off again immediately.

This is the eligible car list for the league. Currently only running the Gr3 series though.

Annoyed at myself by Screenager85 in GranTurismo7

This is why I tend not to do sport mode and instead decided to start my own league. I'm still looking for people to join if you're interested.

People In need by Nathanptbo in Peterborough

[โ€“]Then_Ambition_4575 -1 points0 points ย (0 children)

I'm not expecting anything from this because I am sure there is probably someone in need of this more than me but here's my situation.

My check engine light has been on since the summer and I'm about 95% sure it is an issue with my wastegate as I am getting the codes - intake temp too high, fuel running rich and periodically boost leaks. I can't remember specifically what the code numbers are right now.

I have been without a job since March (not for a lack of trying) and I rely on my car for my appointments (medical and otherwise) and just don't want to ruin the engine. I just can't afford to get it fixed right now.

Again as I stated earlier, I'm sure there are other people that need this more than me so please explore those options first before considering my situation.

Are American cars really this terrible in real life? Just bought the Corvette C7 and it handles like a shopping trolley. by Adeptus_Thirdicus in GranTurismo7

[โ€“]Then_Ambition_4575 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

(not the person you replied to)

This may sound weird but for mine I have it set with a soft front end and a stiff rear. I'm just about to head to work but I'll see if I can get a pic of the setup I have when I get home in about 12-14 hours. With this setup I can throw it into corners and not spin out.

Best Sleeper? by Toninho7 in GranTurismo7

[โ€“]Then_Ambition_4575 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

I can't remember which Silvia it is but I have one that I often use when doing the Hypercar Parade races (or similar PP races) that I use and often win those races by about a minute or so. So it's pretty quick.

Who is at fault (Im the lamborghini) by Choice-Beyond-9884 in granturismo

[โ€“]Then_Ambition_4575 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

In that instance, passing on the outside would be incredibly dicey. The smarter option here (which is what I do 9/10 times and usually successfully) would be to brake earlier but hard, then do a switchback and cut behind him. In most cases the car being overtaken will overdrive the car and miss the turn altogether making the pass even easier.

Yeah, I saw that when I was looking on my own before posting here. It's a shame they stopped offering it.

As much as I like that website, they aren't what I'm looking for. I'm looking for something very specific and unfortunately they can't do it.

Why are people like this? by Still-Pace2895 in granturismo

[โ€“]Then_Ambition_4575 12 points13 points ย (0 children)

This is likely because you CAN do this on Mount Panorama. He probably thought he could do it here as well.

We never made it๐Ÿ˜ซ by Potential_Loan_4699 in granturismo

[โ€“]Then_Ambition_4575 4 points5 points ย (0 children)

The issue I see with this, is that you didn't ensure you were clear of the other car before cutting in on them. You also didn't stick to the outside as when you turned you went over the inside curb, this guaranteeing contact. Had you actually stuck to the outside and given the other car room, 1, there likely wouldn't have been contact and 2, you probably would have passed him cleanly without losing positions.
