I keep crashing lol. I find the GT3 BRZ to be good in the mid to high speed corners but slow in a straight line, the Supra handles OK enough but is fast in a straight line, the 911 is in between the two. I got into the 26’s but I haven’t been able to put a full lap together. There are not many ghosts to load off the global leader board.

I tried the Supra GT500. Like the R34, they just can't compete with the modern cars. The A90 Supra was good, but I couldn't get a lap in without crashing. The short tail F1 understeers pretty badly, and hate the vacuum, I mean engine sound. The Ferrari was alright, and I'm sure it would have gotten into the 26s. But I ran off course with it. The BRZ was good, but I just didn't have the speed with it for some reason.

I've never used any global ghosts before. Aren't they always just the top 10 drivers?

You can usually pickup the ghost and replay for most on the global board. It’s weird now, only the top ones have times. I usually pull a gold time from someone else to follow.

I used the GR Supra '18 and love the way it drives. Other than watching out for power on oversteer in the lower gears it handles very well. I've currently got an 8:24.xxx, should ensure a silver.

I was having issues with understeer with it, which I would try rotating the car with the gas pedal. But eventually it would cause me to lose control.

But I did have faster sector times with it than the BRZ.

I am on the Supra now too. I'll be up 3-4 seconds and then mess up a section or crash. Been super frustrating.

[StraightOuttaCanadaEh]

Same exact thing happened to me

[Kaotic Lazagna]

Decided to buy the A90 Gr3 car. I find it very weird that the car handles better compared to the rental car. I wonder if they do that on purpose. I was able to get into the 8:24s now.

It was cool that the 24h nur full live stream was on YouTube. Watching pretty much forced me to do some laps in GT7 haha. The credits were a nice bonus heh

I switched to the GTR and am much happier. I have avoided using it because it was the meta car for so long. Got down to an 8:21.231. I want in the 19’s so bad, I just don’t see it. Way too far off to get gold.

[fredzy]

Gold is in the 16s right? I'm tempted to look at some YT videos and see if there are any weird things people are doing to go so fast. Usually on nurb it's just slamming curbs which is really hard for me to force myself to do.

I picked the M6 rental because it was the closest thing to the ugly M4's and did a 25 sec lap 1, 22.5 lap 2. So I feel like if I tune a car it could be a possibility. I get what people have been saying about how race cars have bad understeer now, was especially feeling it in the GP track.

A lot of the corners on the Nurburgring F1 track are set up to cause most any car to understeer. That's the challenge of that circuit. It's not a race car "thing".

Yeah, gold is high 16's. I may be able to get there if I commited a few hours an evening for a couple more weeks I have been running my ghost at .7 sec ahead of me and having it reset per sector. It's helped a lot.

The M6 has understeer on all but high speed corners. I find it pretty painful to drive. The GTR is quite pointy and I find myself having to correct a lot of oversteer moments. I find the A90 has quite a bit of understeer on slow corners but is okay at mid and high speed.
