Why always use this crappy tires?

if it was always RS everyone would get gold. Different tire combo's means you actually have to learn how the car handles without having the optimum grip. It separates the drivers from the racers

I have to disagree with you there. With better tires, the world-record time is naturally much faster, and achieving a "gold" time remains just as challenging. Personally, I find it more enjoyable to drive with better tires; even after securing a gold, I’m motivated to try for even faster times. In this race here, I didn’t run any further laps.

I've been getting more and more into Gran Turismo 7 but I am at university and wanted to get some opinions from the community.

I'm currently using a Logitech G29, and I've attached some pictures of my setup so you can see what I'm working with.

I'm currently A+ rated with an S sportsmanship rating, ranked 718th in the world, and sitting at a 1.01% delta.

I'm curious to know how competitive these stats actually are and whether my pace is good enough to potentially take sim racing further.

Would appreciate some honest opinions, advice and feedback from people who race competitively.

it boils down to what you are looking for, pure skill or experience... G29 is pretty good for performance, low resistance, easy to register muscle memory etc. if you want better immersion, investing in DD wheel is a good start. A racing seat will feel nicer and VR will bring the experience to a new level IMO but this immersion will cost you a bit of performance. This is the reason top sim racer, i…

~60km in with both McLaren options on Leguna Seca and //probably// 0.5-1s off a "Gold" pace. Why, oh why, did I not choose BMW?

FYSA (PICTURED): GT1 average points results from Round 1, manufacturer minimum: 10 participants, DNFs omitted.

Where do you get these numbers?

I was wondering if anyone knew how to deal with this, as I think it’s not a commonly addressed racecraft issue: Ever since I started doing the online championships (and even in the really competitive daily race lobbies) I’ve had the same issue every time, which is that I cannot follow closely to another car. For example, assume you are in a race where the lobby ends up in a long train of cars - I find these situations so difficult because you are forced to stay so close to the car in front, and everyone has such similar pace. I think it’s an issue with spotting brake markers and reaction time etc, and I’m sure everyone feels more pressure in this sort of situation, but more experienced drivers (like most GT7 YouTubers as an example) are so good at this that if they are following someone of similar pace, they barely slow down. In the online championship races, I feel it’s my big disadvantage compared to the rest of the lobby, even when I have the best pace.
I think it may also be the same issue which makes me tend to not use ghosts in time trial because they distract me too much, but I can’t say this for sure.
If anyone has any advice, please feel free to share it :)
