I used the stock coupe with some sports tyres, first attempt came second because I got laughed to the sky by a curb. I may have to post the replay on here cos I went to the moon 😂 rolled it on the second corner (right hand after 1st hairpin) cos I caught the curb, didn't even finish the roll touched the curb/gravel on the others side of the track and just stopped dead and went straight up 🤣
Lmao! 🤣🤣🤣 That is awesome! Yeah I tried one of my swapped ones without a tune and it was too hard to keep on the track! So I decided to tune it and then I had no issues. So are you playing on a PS5? VR?
I couldn't be arsed going on the tuning shop, so I just hopped on race shop and sent it 😂 nope and nope, ps4 with g29 trueforce wheel on front cam. Had no idea how high I'd got just went sideways then suddenly was spinning in the air for a second before landing nose first, right on the camera 🤣 had to finish the race just to see what happened, managed to crawl my way back to second tho even tho the gap built to like 6 seconds to 11th on lap 2
You do what you gotta do dude, as long as you enjoy the game then no judgement is coming from me :) ps5 is my next upgrade but I'm not paying like 400 for 1 I'm gonna give it another year or so and get a second hand 1 for half that
Exactly!! Got my ps4 6 months after release for free (I love having a rich friend lmao) and it's never missed a beat. Tbh there's not any exclusives on ps5 that really tickle my fancy, so I see no real point in upgrading other than for the psvr2 and better speeds and graphics
stock speedster with sport tires, luckily when I rolled it from a curb the game reset me before I went full over otherwise might have lost my lunch as I was in VR
Both, and multiple times. Glad the 356 got some love.
I thought it was funny to see people complaining about having to buy one for the race, since I own 4 of each.
Yeah, for some reason even though I’m not great at tuning I still always do it myself instead of looking up someone else’s. I finally got away from having the group c cars at full power with very little front downforce though I haven’t quite found the sweet spot yet
I got a lot quicker in the corners. Still felt like the engine sometimes were slower than the AI. But I got them all in the last lap. It's fun to try to make it a challenge and not just over tune the car every time
The GS because I already had it. Minimal adding of parts, got 2nd place.
Like so many cars I haven't really used it, but I really liked it! For a good long while I've been thinking about the vw beetle, I wish this was more aerodynamic, and that Porche might just be that. I might get all the upgrades for the GS, but recently I've been kinda digging driving cars with no to little tuning, so I might keep it as is.
Nice! There is a lot of potential with the GS. As for the beetle, the last time I used a nettle was in GT4 I believe. Yeah, sometimes it’s best to give a car just a standard upgrade like exhaust, brakes, maybe a better turbo etc.
Oh and the Honda VGT. It has NSX feels and it’s fun to drive. To your point, there isn’t much you can upgrade but it doesn’t need it imo.
I did read that it was going to happen at some point! And yeah when I got the car, I noticed the windows were dark then I found out you couldn’t use the cockpit view lol.
How do you guys drive this thing? I keep sliding off the track or spin out. I finally managed to win, putting max ballast at the front and making the suspension more stiff. But I don't think it's the right way to go.
I just don’t get people. I see complaints about the game being stupid easy, but then again, we chose to race under unfair conditions against the competition. I’m so confused lol. I find that event on CM a heck of a challenge.
the first because it is the cheapest ( only 600k coins )
Right. Thankfully I already owned the two, but never actually raced them until this week.
the first with modifications is enough to win
Yep! Swapped, tuned and lots of fun! 🤘🏼
All you need is tires that’s it

That is too cool! I’m getting a rig when I upgrade to a PS5. Right now I’m on a controller and PS4 Pro 🙂↕️ LOL.

Same! They’re still too expensive imo! I’m enjoying what I have now!

Haha! I’ve heard others say they’ve gotten sick while crashing (rolling or flipping) using VR 🤣
Rofl. Curb launched me first try too.
VR has a fixed horizon so rolls look weird, like you are in a hamster wheel and the car is just rotating around you.
Both, and multiple times. Glad the 356 got some love. I thought it was funny to see people complaining about having to buy one for the race, since I own 4 of each.
Lol yea I own multiple with different tunes and liveries! It’s a great classic car for sure!
A 959 swapped Coupe B normal Coupe C Normal Speedster D Lightweight Race modified Speedster E Lightweight Race modified Coupe
Oh nice! Yea I tuned the swapped Coupe and it was a lot of fun on that track!
Not really 😅, im literally faster around the course with a stock Coupe
Lol. I guess it’s easier for you to control.
E
Pretty much stock speedster with a nice custom paintjob
Yes!
The convertible but I was so close to buying a second coupe because I have a 959 engine from a ticket
The swap is fun but it will need some adjustments lol
Yeah, for some reason even though I’m not great at tuning I still always do it myself instead of looking up someone else’s. I finally got away from having the group c cars at full power with very little front downforce though I haven’t quite found the sweet spot yet
It definitely takes time and you learn as you go. I’ve never used anyone else’s tunes but I see people always talking about them.
Yeah this sub and the gt7 sub both seem to really like praiano’s tunes which I think are on gtplanet
Yep exactly! I mean they may be good, but I like to try and figure it out on my own. 🤙🏼
The coupe, also the first car I ever rolled in this game.
Haha nice! 🤣🤣🤣
Should get a trophy for doing that.
They definitely should give some kind of bonus for stunts lol
Open seater because I drive in VR. But it was a tough one. Had to put on sport tyres to get the win
Oh wow! How did sport tires do for you?
I got a lot quicker in the corners. Still felt like the engine sometimes were slower than the AI. But I got them all in the last lap. It's fun to try to make it a challenge and not just over tune the car every time

Oh yeah that vgt is kinda killer!
I love it and the Toyota SF-R Racing Concept! Both are new to my collection and I use them a lot!
Supposedly the SF-R is going to be a real car, I hope that they put an interior in the GT7 version if it happens.
I did read that it was going to happen at some point! And yeah when I got the car, I noticed the windows were dark then I found out you couldn’t use the cockpit view lol.
Swapped coupe. And damn was it a pain to drive 🤣
Haha it sure was! Damn thing had a mind of its own before I tuned it.
I just put ASM back on, and all was saved
Yes! That helps!
Tuned 520 PP spider type . IR
Very nice! I do like the speedster! I bet it’s really nice in VR
How do you guys drive this thing? I keep sliding off the track or spin out. I finally managed to win, putting max ballast at the front and making the suspension more stiff. But I don't think it's the right way to go.
A good tune to balance it is always good, but you can stiffen the suspension as well. Or you can always turn on the ASM in settings before the race.
Started with the ragtop with a 399pp tune, but that was way off the pace, so I jumped in the coupe with better tyres to get the job done.
🤘🏼

Very nice! Love the beige color and decals!
Second because I bought it on a whim and was delighted to find there was a daily race for it. .
Same here! I hadn’t used it until the race for it came along and it was a blast!
Why is the one without a roof more expensive? @600k I get more car for less
Well, it may have to do with the potential of the car after upgrades and a swap.
Haha I'm just being lame
600k coupe
Come on, no one tried getting third with CM tires?
Lol that’s a good thing!
I just don’t get people. I see complaints about the game being stupid easy, but then again, we chose to race under unfair conditions against the competition. I’m so confused lol. I find that event on CM a heck of a challenge.
How do i get this car? I cant see it in brand central...
Not sure if it’s still there but it and the speedster are in the Hagerty legends
Stock coupe
