Le Mans should be #1 because statistically, the payout is the highest for the ease of difficulty (vs. Spa that has a higher payout, but is more suited for advanced drivers in both layout, weather and time lapse). Le Mans is an easy course for beginners since it's not a technical track like Sardegna, but a flat out sprint track (more or less) with a few chicanes and hair pins to break it up. Tokyo Expressway has been altered the last few patches where the AI is programmed to be make contact with you to ruin the race bonus. PD knows what the grind tracks are, and they prioritize making it as difficult as possible (to promote microtransactions) instead of fun. If the focus was fun, we'd have more than three tracks with reasonable payouts compared to the car prices (20M for some is ridiculous). The economy in GT7 resembles a mobile game in a lot of respects, and I hate it. But I also love the wheel-to-wheel racing it simulates, so I put up with it. Keep up the great videos!
LeMans and Tokyo are my go to tracks. Tokyo landed in #1 for me, because it’s harder (and slightly quicker). The added difficulty adds to the thrill of the drive. More to your point, LeMans is also WAY more flexible in the number of cars you can win with. I’m only competitive with a handful at Tokyo, but do a lot of testing at LeMans. Thank you for watching!
I run this track with engine swapped Suzuki cappucino, only 518 pp, but laps 2:12 and over 300 km/h. No pit stops needed, fuel mix 4. Not easy on wet, but exciting from lap #3 onwards. Clean race bonus all the time. A narrow car, so no wall riding but fun when sliding 😊
Lucky for me I can't care less about new Ferrari's. The only Ferrari I would consider buying if I had the money is the F40! It's like Bugatti, their only interesting car is the EB110.
I’m surprised that Ferrari doesn’t have stipulations about customization in video games. It’s no wonder they’re appearing less and less in games overall now.
Just like apple.. they want the most GP at point of sale as its their "BTO" is the only way to modify.... Even if there is no option, or even less capable upgrades. at more cost ...
Ferrari is selling cars to race? No, that is the slogan Ferrari marketing wants you to believe. Ferrari is racing to sell paraphernalia. That's why they market and protect their brand bubble: The brand is the major money maker. And apparently it works 😭 Ferrari is a tshirt and hat merchandise seller that can make huge margins because of marketing-manipulated customers with a big FOMO. Google 'what makes Ferrari so successful?'...
I will never see Ferrari's perspective. If I buy a car, I own it. I can do what I like with it. Buying something and then a company telling me what I can/can't do with it and when I can sell it... hell no. Perhaps they should just lease their cars instead, then they can keep control on what the driver can/can't do with it.
I still blaming the management of the company who own Ferrari for killing Dodge Vipers, imagine what their engine department could do with an 8 litre V10 🔥 I would forgive them though if they gave me a free LaFerrari though, or a Roma (Its so pretty 😍).
actually the dodge vipers v10 shares more in common with the bizzarini v12 (lamborghini) than anyone of ferraris engines. and vipers do work a few mods and your past 600hp on first gens. same with the double daza v10 (im not calling it lamborghinis goofy internal name its just two daza 5 cyls put together )
If you release a product to the world, the world will change it. I do somewhat understand not being allowed to sell them right away. We don’t need scalpers trying to make a quick buck.
@@Kreeber yeah, that's something that companies refuse to see. I buy something I should be able to do whatever I want with it. Ugh scalpers, that's pretty much all dealerships in a nutshell.
@@NickJohnsonSaxophone Not like that. I mean if I get rich somehow, it would be reasonable to dump 100-150k into a car of my childhood dreams (that is about the budget of 348 Spider). 550 and F50 are too complex end valuable to be "feel good" cars. I also adore the cheese grater!
I disagree. The people they blacklist have one thing in common: They're degenerates with too much money on their hands. They don't want them to tarnish their brand image. And who can blame them? Mercedes Benz nowadays has a brand image of making cars for money launderers and rapping imbeciles. Same goes for Lamborghini. Ferrari is doing the right thing.
Ferrari is probably very articulate in their contracts, which recipients of their cars have to sign before they can own one of their cars. So no! They don't have to suck anything. They are only being lawful.
@JOHANNESwhoelse I'm stating my opinion.. There are many other high-end car manufacturers in the world, and in my opinion, Ferrari is overrated. I would have been like Deadmau and went with Lambo or another company. I'm not a fan of the red car color they tout, and it seems that they wouldn't even want me to paint it or wrap it.. Audi R8 is my fave 😍
@@JOHANNESwhoelse "They are only being lawful".... I doubt Ferrari's contract would hold up to many countries consumer laws, if challenged... Much of the wording in EULAs for consumer products, on the rights of the corporation in question, aren't legal. They will state any and all rights over their products or services that they can think of, even if they aren't legal. They won't ever change unless they're challenged legally, and lose, or a governmental body steps in and regulates them.... But considering the direction of consumer rights or 'ownership' of vehicles these days, challenging Ferrari's overzealousness isn't likely to be a priority for anyone.
The Corvette C6 ZR1 09 is the best bang for the buck. Used is under $100K and mods are only $1,200. Only need power restrictor (96) and ballast (55) for 599.99 PP. Never lost with this set up.
I took it out this morning. Amazing car on a budget! I ran fuel map 6, and didn’t need to pit. It pushes a bit in the corners, but great car all around. I had an 06 C6 base Corvette a few years ago, so this feels extra special! Thanks for sharing!
@@Kreeber Thanks for replying. I don’t see anyone talking about it, and IMO, it’s the best value on GT7. I’ve always done fuel on max and did my pit after lap 6. It’s a bit of a handful for a few laps but settles in nice when the tracks dry.
"the fly brick" lol. definitely a hidden racing heritage. but definitely a good base vehicle. would think was heavier due to the size and safety Volvo puts into these vehicle. great vid bud. I wonder what other manufactures have hidden gem race history. like the classic e30 bmw m3 from the 80s.
Thinking about the Volvo 240, there was one man who once drove one daily: Ingvar Kamprad, the founder of IKEA. Every time I think about the 240, I dreamt in flat packs.
😂😂😂 That’s awesome! I ran into a guy that was auto crossing one in Orlando, FL. He had his own following just for driving something a little different.
I just started grinding Sardegna after doing +40 Le Mans runs since i got my PS5 and GT7 in May. First car i used was the Suzuki Escudo wich i found to be really good on several WTC800 races. I also used my Porsche 962 detuned to 799.89PP and that car is a dream to drive, to bad im more of a nightmare than a dream when it comes to driving. Really like your content and i will try the cars you suggested to switch things up. 🎉
JGTC lineup were all iconic and we can't ignore how impactful Gran Turismo is in shedding light in one of the most inclusive racing series in the world. Tom's Castrol, Pennzoil, Calsonic, Denso Sard, Takata Mugen were all beautiful
My understanding is that when the transmission is set to Fully Customizable: racing, the gearbox is upgraded to a sequential gearbox. In this mode, like a real sequential gearbox, the clutch is not required for shifting gears. The default manual transmission model or Fully Customizable: Manual mode will keep the H-type manual transmission, which require a clutch for shifting gears.
I have a Mazda LM55 VGT with Mid-RPM Turbo upgrade detuned to 800pp that can no-pit the TC800 race at LeMans very easily. Even at the lowest fuel map and coasting well before a sharp corner (instead of being aggressive on the brakes when you get very close) it passes all AI cars by Lap 2. I increase the fuel map mid-way through the race while remaining efficient, then once I get to the last lap, I go all out and win by around 2min 30sec over the 2nd place car (sometimes overlapping one car) If it's that good in a 6-lap race at LeMans, should be an easy 1-pit car on Sardegna (maybe even a no-pit, if you're efficient enough). Grips well even on Hard Race Tires and set to the minimal downforce settings, plus it's lightweight making it very good on the tires. Even though you have to de-tune this car's power heavily and toss on some ballast to get just below 800pp, if you tweak the gearing well enough you still have enough acceleration to pass cars with relative ease even on the leanest fuel map.
Controversial- The McLaren F1, in this game, is pointless. Never going to make your money back driving this car- as it is meant to be- in the game. Sure, a de-tuned, out of whack aero, short shift, fuel map 6 version might get you through LeMans 700- but why blow 20mil credits on a legendary vehicle only to have to totally nerf it.
It’s definitely pricey and with them bumping up the race versions it’s adding insult to injury. I do enjoy driving the McLaren, and it can even qualify for the Tokyo 600 with the right tires. It takes around 13 hours to earn the money for it, but you COULD do it with the F1 if you choose to.
@Kreeber agreed. I wasn't suggesting it was a bad car, just wasted. I want to feel what it's like to drive a classic, to see what it takes to tame it. I don't want to short shift, run lame aero, dutuned and short shift my way round a course that there are more suitable cars for that task.
@@KreeberI thoroughly enjoy trying to get the track down close to perfect. Just a break from multiplayer mayhem. That car is also expensive, so it’s worth it in my opinion.
great history lesson, didn't know they change swaped out the 2jz for that 4cyl. should do one on the Volvo racing heritage, ex. 240 turbo. would be interesting.
I was amazed that the most iconic Supra didn’t have the fabled 2J! I’m currently working on the Volvo! I was excited for it to come out, because I ran across a guy that auto crossed one. I’ve loved them ever since!
You need ; 1 A Nissan GT-R, 33 34 35 ! 2 Chevrolet Corvette C6, C7, C8 3 Ferrari, FXXK, GT Group 1, infact all Ferrari's! 4.Ford F 350 ! 5 Subaru Impreza ST X stuff kind of car ! 6.That Super Dodge that goes 630 km/h 7. Porsche GT . 8. Audi RS6 racing car
First of all, a Ford F-350? You're thinking of a Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. Second of all, a Super Dodge that goes 630 kilometers per hour? You're thinking of a Dodge SRT Tomahawk X VGT. Third of all, a Porsche GT? What kind of Porsche GT car do I need? Lastly, there is no Audi RS6 racing car in GT7. You're thinking of an Audi RS 5 Turbo DTM '19, which Kreeber Racing gave an honorable mention to in his video.
@@speedtracker9556 Thanks MAN, I was to lazy to look it al up ! It's a Porsche Carrera GT ! Because it got a middle engine, I don't like engine's hanging in the back. I don't like Porsche that much, only if have too. The Porsche 911 RSR Gr3 is a good car, at least that what they tell me. Chevrolet Corvette are cars I like. Speciale The C7 ZR-1 and C8 Z06. Because they are cheap cars, with a lot of horsepower! And a other tip is but a Bugatti Chiron engine in a Nissan GT-R 35! Have fun !
