Gran Turismo 7 |OT| Hitting the Apex

I haven't gone back to GT7 in a few months and last night I did and did one of the Menu's on hyper cars. First off, I felt like I was playing olds kool NFS because of all the supercars around me, imaginary track and music. Second, the game looks just stunning! Especially when you get great time of day and track like Trial Mountain. Plus all the small details like dirt going on road when you go over the curb. Not sure if its me but I feel like they improved those small details on tracks. I had to record it. This is why I wish we got more imaginary tracks because they just have more personality, are beautiful to drive around and watch. What I wouldn't give for a Cote D Azur track in GT7 or something city-like Seattle or NYC.



Now that Im back, lemme know when you guys again have gathering!

The lobby yesterday for Daily C paid off today. Started in 4th place and quickly dropped to 9th after everyone was pushing like crazy. Then i fought myself back up to 5th place once everyone started to safe fuel.

Pretty mixed lobby with many A and A+ drivers.

Edit: After that a 4th place and then 2nd. :messenger_bicep: Now iam so close to the A rank again that the matchmaking is getting tough.

Edit: Edit: Also got overtaken by Wombleleader. Kinda funny when you watched so many streams of somebody and then they overtake you in a race. :messenger_grinning_sweat:

For real :pie_roffles:

They got me all kinds of it. But I will still go home and fire up a race ASAP!
Waited forever to post this again. :messenger_tears_of_joy:

The track in the shot looks a bit wet. I wonder if we will can enable rain in the race or if it will be like all the other American race tracks. I watched a video yesterday where it rained pretty heavily there.

It is a rainy season in the SE of the country right now.

The races that are based on the world finals have insane payouts. Wow.

Edit: Curious if we can grind these or if they are like the missions with a one time payout.

Just did the first one at Spa with rain. RH and saving fuel, keeping an eye in the radar. Got some rain mid race but track was still good for slicks. 2 laps to go rain got harder and I pitted for inters and fuel. Had to go veeeeery slow to avoid aquaplaning but made it 1st with about 25 min total race.
Got 1.8m but it is not possible to grind it apparently as it gets an "Aquired" tag.

Edit: car was the Subaru BRZ

I went with the Nissan GT3 '18 and hard tires. Rain set in on lap three and i pitted at the end of lap 4 for inters. Should have gone a lap earlier into the pits since the second half of lap four was super slippery and i lost about 5 seconds to the leader. From there it was smooth sailing and i won with 7 seconds distance. As long as you keep the pace up it isn't to hard.

Looks exactly like a mission where you can replay it endlessly but once you reached first place you can't gain any credits anymore.
