WEIRD FACTS & BUGS in GT7 - Gran Turismo 7 Mysteries 

Years ago in Grand Turismo 4 there was a glitch where we would get outside of the track and just sit by the finish line and do donuts and would make the lap 200 and we would all get a lot of money take turns being the winner Good times

The PP drop from the taillights and other rear customizations is due to the fact that those options increase rear downforce, which after a certain point always lowers the PP of the car. If you’re looking to drop the PP without changing ballast or HP then add rear downforce.

The missing weight reduction has to do something with those cars having all carbon bodies

I really wished you were still able to drive around that central area of the Big Willow like you could in GT6.

I actually realized on some cars little to no down force on the rear gives you the most PP however, on some cars having the slider in the middle gives you the most PP

The bigger wing on the GT500 NSX makes the difference on 800pp between not being able to go full send and actually go full send on Eau Rouge

my opinion on the weight reduction on mclarens, paganis, and other high end exotics is that they are already at peak weight.

I forgot how impressive gran turismo sport looked for a now last generation game.

Good stuff as always!!

Incredibly viable information. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for making this

Fun video! Only the monkey I knew of it

Awesome video from the king himself 🔥

I spend 20 seconds trying to understand why virtual taillights would kill my PP.

5:30 a close up of the his face is my profile pic on GT lmao

Great video!

Since the middle of the 20th century, engineers have discovered that adding tree monkey to your car produces downforce & makes your car go faster.

I got to race with you in a lobby yesterday or should I say you where in the same lobby as me. I don’t have the skill as you. It was impressive to see how fast you are. Nice to see a content creator in the game. Liked, scribbled, commented and best of luck.

Gran turismo has a history of trying to make the Japanese cars the forefront of the game, so it does not surprise me that they did those PP glitches with two very popular Japanese cars.

drinking game idea: take a shot everytime he says "pp"

A true glitch video. I will be tuning better having watched it.

I think the taillights thing is because instead of putting red plastic and light bulbs, you put metal and more materials for the inside of the trunk. IT'S A THEORY

Great video. But there's a glitch I'd like you to be aware of. In custom races when you are going to put a car from your garage, let's say, a Viper with Race Soft Tires, even if that tire has been selected for the car, when the AI ​​is going to drive it the tire it will be using will always be the one original (Sports Hard), which is quite disappointing, as it would greatly improve the experience in custom races I wish PD fix this some day

3:46 that’s been the same in forza for years and I’ve never understood it tbh

I have a weird bug that every car automatically gives a little throttle and sometimes I don't hear any engine noise

Nifty!

Sick video

theres actually one out of the map glitch on gt7, you can access the parking lot in Nurburgring but you need to be very lucky to glitch in. If you search up "glitch" in the showcase replays you can find gameplay of it.

Just gave you a sub! 😎

Thanks for the shout-out! :)

Re: Weight Reduction: Both McLaren and Pagani have been more particular than most other companies (except Porsche) about how they are perceived in the digital space.

It's supposed to have something to do with down force but on cars where the kit doesn't remove much, it doesn't make sense. But it's like that on a lot of cars I think >~

Lit vid

Hahaha 😂😂 420 with the monkey notes haha😅

I've found a few weird ones in the past, like adding ballast on one car increased the PP (I was trying to decrease!) and also where it sat F/R of the car too. Can't remember which one it was now, but have found some weird ones. I was also trying to tweak the PP with downforce, but it got in to a weird place where adding or removing downforce on either/both F/R kept added points. I got it ridiculously high before getting frustrated and creating a new default sheet and started over. Which point, I was able to add all the downforce and tweak more power, all for less PP than I was aiming for to start with!

Surprised you didn't mention on some cars the widebody can make the PP increase or decrease by 90-100PP

What make me sick is in the inside view of the gtr r 32 the temp gauge is in hot so basically the car will blow up

Cheers Dood ,GG 👏😁 Like deployed 👍 😎🎙🏎✅️

I think the difference with ceramic brakes is that you can chose the calliper colour.

shouts out my boy spazinator

It can't be 'extremely' unique, it's an absolute. It's either unique or it's not. Original, one of a kind.

special stage route X never was a "secret" because it was a drivable track in GT 1! weight reduction cant be applied as its already a light car made with lightened materials...

Those must be very heavy tail lights

Rear downforme droping permoramce makes sence, as you have an umbalanced rear downforce car, that will make the nose go up, reducing cornering speeds at high speed.

I would say that partially, the PP lowering from a high rear downforce bias is accurate. When you put alot more force on your rear wheels, your pushing it down, which in turn lifts the front ar speed, reducing front grip, however it does still improve your braking from the higher downforce levels, which is not as strongly represented in the pp system. As well, too high of rear downforce levels, even with frontal downforce that allows for sharp handling, can still cause issues, the mercedes racecar at lemans took flight because of the uneven surfaces and high rear downforce levels, the front went over a small bump, lifted high enough to reduce the frontal downforce effectiveness. And even allow air to cause lift. And the rest downforce assisted in lifting the front even more. In real life its about a good balance. Which usually means a reasonable rear bias. Less rear downforce might allow slightly faster cornering speeds, but at the cost of stability and rear wheelspin control at speed. I'd say the most unrealistic thing about the downforce is that it doesnt cause your car to flip through the air when you crank the rear to high at extreme speed. The wheelie glitch, back in the day, it worked because the effects the areo had were somewhat correct. But the cars could not flip, and the downforce values didnt change based on the angle and height of the aero, as well as no other parts other than a front and rear aero doing anything. In gt5 it was possible to do the wheelie glitch until version 2.00. And cars could roll over, but you still wouldn't, because just like before. Only the downforce values effected how the car worked, the front end lifting up didnt make a giant sail picking up air. They removed the aero wheelie, just letting the cars reach max suspension travel, and it's been like this ever since, also for some reason in gt5 adding more weight to the FRONT made aero wheelies happen at earlier speeds, and would in general increase your top speed, which was weird. I remember I watched a cletus McFarland bid where he took his Leroy dragster to a wind tunnel to see how unareodynamov it was. And they did on the fly modifications to improve downforce, when they increased the rear effectively, they added more lift to the front, and obviously worked on adding front aero, which had a minor reduction to the rears total, but did reduce the lift(I cant remember if they ended up with actual downforce on the front or not) even if you dont actually raise the front by having too much in the rear, your still changing the angles by having the rear squat farther down.

Something GT has never gotten right since the original is the side mirrors. It has always shown grass, rumble strips, barriers, etc from the right side in the left side mirror and vice versa

Thought the monkey was gone forever ❤

interesting video as usual 👍🏻

There are so many left out here though, like the Delorean speedometer at 88 MPH (not to mention virtually every car in cockpit view being exclusively KMH). 🤷🤷‍♂🤷‍♀

"Since the middle of 20 century enginers dicovered.... who refused this ? Nobody, ecxept of gt7 pp system" 🤣

I notice you have a comma in your odometer. I am in Europe and there isn't one in mine - strange

There is a difference between carbon ceramic and racing breaks, but it's not performance related, you can change the color of the breakpads on carbon ceramic breaks but not racing ones

I did some testing on the rear diffuser on my Porsche 930 and wondered why such a small thing would increase my performance points. Well, I took off the diffuser and I noticed on Nürb, my car would lift off the ground a lot more 🤣 so.... yeah. Also for the brakes, yeah there's no difference, maybe Polyphony had plans to add a brake endurance mechanic along with the tire wear and damage?

nice

Easter egg you didn't mention is SpaceX falcon heavy can been seen launching and landing 2 laps later at Daytona road course 😉

I want Grand Valley back!!!

McLaren 12C is a beast at Tokyo 600, huge acceleration and high top speed with good handling and also lighter than most cars in its range. 600 seems to be its niche! Right about bhp/lb, as my Lancer Gr.B Road Car is stupid fast at Spa with 670 bhp and over 3100 lbs. Road car homologated versions are very fast despite no weight reduction.

I think that it makes sense that you cannot apply weight reduction to super cars...they are already pretty bare bones from the get go, they don´t have extra seats, carpeting, sound deadening material so in reality there is little to nothing to be removed. I believe that is the logic behind it. When it comes to adding downforce to reduce PP, it makes sense if you consider that higher downforce adds drag which in turn takes away from acceleration and top speed. Depending on how the PP magic works they may be factoring this into the calculation. Not always "more downforce" means "better" depends on how you are planning to use the car.

no.. the higher rear modifications add downforce adjustments.. higher class items front / side / rear / wing allow for more range of downforce adjustment... if you dont have any, then it wil adjust..... increased rear downforce reduces pp, or increased front increases ( believe thats what it was ) weight reduction, some cars dont allow higher than class 2 or 3 either.. believe that just has to do with whats available.. 820pp on the pagani is already one fo the highest for a road car.. generally the elite road cars end up just over 800 pp when customized. also rear downforce, going back to #1 here, rear downforce substantially slows the car down..... you can ultimately adjust rear controllability with adjusting toe angle and LSD distribution but direct downforce will result in lower pp because your speed is substantially lower.

The Ferrari f12 exhaust is bugged and the roofscope is also bugged on the Mercedes clk

Honestly, the weight reduction on super cars don't really help. I bought the Bugatti Veyron and did the reduction, now I can control it past 400km/h. Anyways, still make more logic than rearlights affecting PP xD

The Probably dont allow the Mclarens to have weight reduction because they would be to Good and they are allready very low in weight. Thats my Theory. The Mclaren Guy Gordon Murray Made 2 New Cars in 2023. They are amazing have Like 980 HP and weigh 990 Kg i hope they make it to GT 7 They are called F50 or Something.

lol i feel better about my ALL DOWNFORCE ALL THE TIME tactic I've been using since the ps3 days now

Bring back apricot hill raceway. my favorite drift track from gt3

The reason you can’t put weight reduction on those cars is because they’re already come with carbon fiber and aluminum monocoque chassis you can’t remove any material off them

I found a GREAT New Car for Historic Race Car Nürburgring. The BMW of 1989 ITS AMAZING Very Tuneable until it Reaches 579 PP and if You know the Track You pretty much cant Loose and You can get it down to 990 kg before it reaches 579 PP. My New Favorite BMW in the Game.

Can you please make a tune for the gord gt LM race car spec II gr.3 car that is i think the fastest gr.3 car in the game but the corners is the only thing the car is not that good at

They still haven’t updated where we can’t keep the carbon parts carbon when we repaint the car

Certain cars already come with carbon brakes so I just changed the pads instead of changing out the entire system, am I making it worst?

another fact, some turbo and supercharger upgrades are insanely loud like i would recommend you to put a supercharger on either the 350z or 370z and let it whine away or upgrade the turbo on the alpine a220 race car and listen to the incredible blow off valve every time you lift off the throttle

Fuck I just bought carbon ceramic brakes for two of my cars n I learn this now

There IS a Race Car Version of the Huyra in Real Life i pray to Kazunori Yamauchi he puts this in the Game in 2024 I Love this Car.

These road cars can‘t reduce the weight because they are completely made from Carbon fiber, Titanium and stuff like that. Have a look at a real Pagani, Bugatti, etc. and you‘ll see…

Big Daddy Dood 😍🥵🥵🥵😍

5:39 that's an ape, ape not kill ape

Hello from Denmark, in the middle of the night 🌕

There is a bug For some cars you can’t remove the weight like the pagani huarya or the Porsche gt1 or every roadcar McLaren

All the wall glitches are only in gt sport

Its not a glitch, its aerodynamics

This isn't a bug but it really irritates me on how the scripted AI will exit some pit lanes. Especially on Bathurst. It's like the game is incapable of smooth u-turns. I feel GT has always been like that and it makes no sense to me. Why they make turning more difficult or resistant than in real life, baffles me.

I couldn't find the monkey in trial Mountain is this normal?

I hope they finish gt8 before releasing to the public this time. Amateurs

😂😂😂😂😂 ridicolo

The downforce thing inst a glitch, if there is lots of rear downforce and not so much on the front the car will understeer, and the opposite will make the car oversteer, its just finding the perfect balance

And this problem with the car appearing first in the old colors before the modifications, horrible, what's missing to fix this?

You clearly don't know about aerodynamics. While yes you get more stability from more rear downforce, you lose front end grip. You don't want too much front or rear downforce. It's not good for the driving dynamics or top end

Everyone's tunes are hilariously bad. It's too bad that 99% of the community is either too lazy or too arrogant to read the "Beyond the Apex" manual. It's REALLY funny when you understand the values and what works in conjunction. Just mimic a Gr4 suspension on a road car of equilvilant value to see what I'm saying. Proof is in the pudding, as I have a perfectly controllable 5 Cylinder swapped GTi at 700PP, an everyone I know that has seen it is blown away at how quick and stable it is. I'll drop a mad hint about tuning..... .... your tire compound is the range finder of suspension settings.

To be fair on the weight reduction, the pagani and Mclarens are not normal road card to begin with..

On the gtr its clear why it happens the b option doeant just give you a rearbumper thingy it also is an entire flatfloor giving you extra downforce the a bumper doesnt have that ... your actually reallly late catching up to this if im honest go check how much extra downforce you have with the b rear bumper option ... thank me later its gonne shave seconds of your laptimes

And what you said on downforce is no longer correct if i put my downforce to full pp will go up not down but this could have to do with the setup on your cars in combination with downforce

My evo V is already under 700 without removing the taillights since I’m running an H pattern transmission instead of the sequential transmission so ye🫡

Ow and i specificly advise against using mixed tire setups it simply doesnt work you might think its a great option because of pp but its absolutely not the understeer you get together with the strange tire wear is absolutely gonne work against you in like every way possible not a smart move at all if the tire wear is on

The PPs arent accurate

Why am I watching this forza is better
