Wonder how much the R30 Super Silhouette is going to cost. Being a Skyline, especially from GT2 days, I have to collect it. lol. Will be annoyed if it costs more than the R34 GT500 car since I don't remember the R30 SS being all that good.

Oh geez, I really didn't do us proud last night in the Toyota Gazoo Racing Series. It was a race using stock GR86s on SH tires!

And I sucked, lol. I managed to qualify 3rd for my first race attempt. And then...somehow I managed to start the race in Reverse. So when the green flag dropped, I floored it and went backwards. FML.

Angry

Such a waste. Was able to claw back to 9th (IIRC).

In the 2nd race attempt best I could qualify was 7th. And at race start in T1 I braked early and hugged the inside of the turn...and was still rammed off into the dirt, into last place.

In 3rd (final) attempt I qualified 5th, and was punted off the inside (?!?) of T6 (a slow 40 mph 2nd gear turn) and came to a rest facing the wall. Again, into last place. On the first lap.

FFS...

Red face

What's really insane about it all, is that when I was literally being pushed off (wasn't an impact bounce, the car had sustained contact with me and was pushing me) into the dirt, there was a car on my left that would have prevented me from going into the dirt. But GT7 decided to ghost that car so I could pass right through. What in the bloody f*ck? How about ghosting the sh*tbrick PUSHING me off track.

I mean it was still really fun wheel to wheel racing, no regrets on that.

And because it was such a piss poor result for me, it won't count in the points tally (it automatically drops your worst 2 (or 3, i can't recall). Sadly I have other poor results from earlier events that I don't want counted either!

This is why I quit online racing in GT cold turkey years ago. The grief of these sorts of things was outweighing the joys. Can't give time to that

I got a super bore-up for Peugeot RCZ. Lots of Peugeot parts in the bin if I’m honest.

Double post. I guess I’ll add that the super silhouette is pretty fun to drive.

Really? I don't like it (consideeing it is classified as a GR3 car).

Oh no way, I didn’t realize it’s Gr3 haha. It has a little bit of that old race car feel like Assetto does so well.

Anyone else think the new neoclassical menu is a bit hard? Really have no option but to use a GR1 car right at 800PP to podium at the very least.
