Gran Turismo 7 Day-to-day Races: MR2’s Corporate
A fresh set of the Gran Turismo 7 Daily Races schedule is available starting today, despite the fact that many of you may be eager to enjoy some turkey today.
As per normal, all three events have been updated, including two races for Gr. 4 and Gr. 3 race cars and a new one-make event every week.
This week, Driver Rating updates for Race A will once again be disabled, meaning that your DR will not be affected by anything that occurs during the race. Your Sportsmanship Rating will be affected, though, and considering the nature of the combination, that may be fascinating.
The race is held at the small “Sprint” layout of the GP circuit, which passes through turns five through eleven and includes the arena portion of the course. The race does stop at the Nurburgring. The automobile in question is a second-generation Toyota MR2, and the race is four laps long.
You are welcome to bring your own car or borrow one for the occasion, but keep in mind that cars with widebody or engine swap modifications won’t be accepted unless they are equipped with Comfort Soft tires. Be mindful of the false start check feature on the grid start as well. If you roll before the lights go out, this feature will cut engine power (for the same amount of time as you jumped it).
This week, Race B travels to the made-up Dragon Trail location to experience the Gardens track’s Reverse layout. For the race, you will need a Gr.4 car with Racing Hard tires on it.
You can choose any Gr.4 vehicle you want to drive, and you can change the Brake Balance both before and during the four-lap race. Although the Mazda 3 Gr.4 continues to be the top car, the narrow circuit and AWD may make it a little more work.
That leaves Gr. 3 for Race C, which visits the Circuit de Sainte-Croix on an infrequent basis. This race uses the C layout and consists of five laps with a minor strategic component.
You will have to utilize the Racing Soft tires, and since the tire wear is adjusted at a 5x multiplier, it is a significant amount of time for tires with such a short lifespan. Fortunately, a forced pit break is also included, so you’ll have to choose whether to go long at the beginning or finish – three laps followed by two, or two laps followed by three.
With the availability of the Brake Balance adjustment, there’s a potential you may prolong the tire life. Fuel usage is also multiplied by two, although that won’t be a problem.
To gain entry to the Daily Races, you must first unlock Sport Mode in the GT Cafe single player hub by finishing Menu Book 9 (“Championship: Tokyo Highway Parade”).
Since GT7’s Daily Races have been updated every Monday during the game’s existence, Monday, January 1st should see the release of the upcoming batch. Indeed, in a true sense.
