Gran Turismo 7 Day-to-day Races: American Dream
Gran Turismo 7’s Daily Races have entered a very American week, with three races at racetracks around the nation accessible for the following seven days.
After a few weeks of a few slightly modified formats, Race A will once again follow the standard “No DR/SR” pattern. This guarantees that your Driver Rating and Sportsmanship Rating won’t be affected by anything that occurs throughout the race, for better or for worse.
This week also sees the return of what GT fans refer to as “the meme race”—and it’s simple to understand why. Due to the fact that it brings you to the fictitious Special Stage Route X, the race, which has one lap and lasts for four minutes, actually covers roughly 19 miles.
Each of the 16 pre-tuned cars available to you has a ton of power and is equipped with nitrous kits in case that wasn’t enough for you. To stay with the train and make that last push to the finish line, it inevitably turns into a slipstream (and bump-draft) struggle and a tactical use of nitrous issue.
Bugatti Chiron, Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Dodge Viper GTS, Ferrari F8, Honda NSX, Lamborghini Aventador, Mazda RX-7 FD (and RE Amemiya-tuned version), Mercedes-AMG GT Black, Nissan R32, R33, and R34 Skylines, GT-R, and Z, Pagani Huayra, and fourth-generation Toyota Supra are among the available vehicles.
Races B and C, which as usual host the Gr.3 and Gr.4 categories utilized in the game’s highlight esports series, have a greater sense of normalcy. In both instances, you can adjust the Brake Balance settings at any time throughout the race, but unlike recent weeks, you can’t fine-tune them.
From the fictional town of SSRX, Race B leads you up the California coastline to the authentic Laguna Seca and its terrifying Corkscrew bends.
Any car from the class is eligible for this race, which is for the GT4-based Gr.4 category. Only Racing Soft tires are required for this six-lap sprint race, which is usually exciting in these vehicles.
The Gr.3 cars are left with Race C, and there are a few considerations for the race that will call for a tactical approach.
For these cars, the race lasts ten laps around the entire Watkins Glen circuit, and you can choose between Racing Hard and Racing Soft tires.
Additionally, both tire grades are required, so you must complete at least one on-track lap with a full set of each in order to avoid a one-minute post-race penalty. You must pit in order to make the swap, therefore be careful when entering the pits because it’s simple to cross the line and receive a three-second penalty.
The 6x tire wear multiplier, which swiftly consumes the Soft tire, adds some complexity to the situation. The goal is to get as many laps as you can out of the Soft tires while avoiding wearing them out and making them slower than the Hard option.
You must unlock Sport Mode in the GT Cafe single-player hub by finishing Menu Book 9 (“Championship: Tokyo Highway Parade”) in order to enter the Daily Races.
The following new set should be released on Monday, October 16. This is because GT7’s Daily Races have been updated every Monday throughout the game’s existence.
