Here are my thoughts on waiting up: A 5 second penalty is pretty huge. Pretty much ruins your chances in a high level lobby. Your victim is almost certain to pass you back. To me it makes sense to proceed on after the incident and if you get a penalty, continue on. If you don’t get a penalty for whatever reason, slow down (safely) and give that position back. My current tendency is to just immediately give the position back, but I’m considering doing what I described. Thoughts, Tidge?
@@InitialP_Photography but in real racing you have stewards to dish out penalties. Fair enough continue on if you get a substantial penalty and wait if you don't.
It's an interesting topic and I've talked about doing both before now. ALOT of the times the penalty given isn't big enough and the position is never given back. While other times as you say 5 seconds is alot and already race over. I think for me if you drive off and take the penalty and you're still ahead maybe continue to wait for that driver to catch up. Sometimes it can be a horrible place to wait and therefore waiting would cause more crashes and so its not wise to do so. I know in this situation I said it in the video, Jack in the weekly race guide did something similar and did wait up even with the 5 second penalty. I think it could and maybe should be a mixture of the 2. The sportsmanship video for Gran Turismo does say wait for them, but I must admit I am more inclined while writing this to wait for them at the penalty line.
Lol tidge, I cannot believe you got lucky to win beat the meta with the BMW m3 gt3. I thought that car would be one of the hardest ones you would of had to do for beat the meta. But you did it, done and dusted, with some luck of course ;). Great video as usual.
It's just not good on this track and other tracks with long straights and long fast corners, it's better for the tight twisty tracks and is actually very good on mount panorama except for the 2 starights along with the Alfa romeo and z4
"I hope he just wipes out everybody and I sweep right on by" *Proceeds to wipe out the polesitter and other car* Well that went better then expected. Congrats on the double win, good stuff.
Just Alphabetically, it's just to show the cars that have won there's no real preference. I was tempted to do when I had done it but alphabetically allows people to find their favourite cars a bit easier
Punt to pass seems pretty much the norm in all DR categories. Lots of clean drivers but also many use the cars theyre attempting to pass as a barrier to get past. Seems more prevalent by drivers on the cusp of the different DR ratings. I often out qualify my abilty (Yarno Trulli) (Trulli train style) except many don't respect defensive driving in GT7
The big BMW question though is........ When are we going to get a snouty GT3 in GT7? I've come round to the look of them now after watching endurance races for the past 2 years.
sometimes you just need a bit of luck and luck you deffo did tbh though kimi will always be kimi and you cant really do much about it. (should of heard the chear from me when he missed you) good job on beat the meta again next up should be altenza see how that does eventually the sillohouse is gonna be the toughest of them all to do just with that turbo lag and manual gearbox in it. ive raced him once on my second account at nurboriing (that was when i got the higest i ever been on gt7 too a quarter up a rank) and yep he lived up to his name and completely ruined my race. anyway well done though and good luck in next one

People in this race seriously lack racecraft, I had one race where a lambo tried to push me off the track in turn 2 and then spun himself out because I had nowhere to go and turned out to him and then ended up spinning him out
I've commented this before, but I honestly don't think the Silhouette will be possible on any track outside of High Speed Ring. My buddies and I like to go to HSR in Gr.3 on occasion for some good fun close and fast racing, and that is the only track where that car becomes competitive.
I think you're right, I'm half hoping for a small buff at some point. But the second High Speed Ring comes up I'm going to be racing it non stop to do it haha! Imagine the video, Race number 472, and finally I get P15.
It does count. Otherwise we have to start looking at penalty wins, or when someone goes off. Kimi tried to get me as much as anyone else and the second the race started my goal was to get by at the best opportunity I could which I did. There have been other beat the metas with weaker lobbies and such. What I didn't show in the video is I did have another victory in the BMW but it didn't have an A+, or the countless P2's/P3's I got as well.
All due respect but I'm glad Kimi's back , dirty drivers ( especially in the B class ) has made GT7 less than fun to play and Polyphony Digital's inability or refusal to do something about dirty racing had made me walk away from GT7 , I'm hoping GT7 userbase will dwindle due to dirty racing and force PD to get off their ass and do something rather than worrying about their precious microtransactions
How is that kimi an A/S ranked driver? They're an utter s**t and should be banned completely I'm glad they ended up in 11th in that race, although they didn't even deserve to be that high up the grid
@@StingBear seriously? The word they when talking about a singular person is a perfectly valid use of the word in both British English and American English It's used when you don't know a person's gender or name and has been valid English for hundreds of years. I'm far from a world class writer, but Christ in a teacup go back to school or pick up a thesaurus and a dictionary if you think it's incorrect to use they when talking about a singular person
@@PaulTheFox1988 Dont get your pants in a bunch. I learned in school that "they" is used to imply plurality, and "he" or "she" or "it" is used for singular. I think it's safe to assume Kimi is a "he".
@@StingBear Then clearly your school is staffed by illiterate monkeys "The pronoun "they" can be used as a singular pronoun when it is used to refer to a person whose sex is not known or specified." - Britannica Dictionary. It's literally the top result on Google if you search "they for singular" It's usage for singular has been valid in written form for nearly 650 years, and the OED posits it's even older in spoken form It's super irritating and loathsome having someone attempt to correct grammar when it's not even correct to begin with, and does nothing to add to the conversation at hand
I had no choice in this situation (Bearing in mind what happened and results). One of the previous Beat the Metas I specifically said I didn't include a Kimi race for that very reason.
You're really that upset about him featuring KIMI despite how rare he even shows up? My guy, its been at least 1 or 2 years since Kimi has been in Tidge's videos (at least it feels like it). Its not like he's going out of his way to stuff him in at every opportunity (unlike some channels, which thrive off the drama).

I agree with that, in real racing you don't see drivers slow down to let the other guy past, it's racing, close racing and accidents happen.
@@InitialP_Photography but in real racing you have stewards to dish out penalties. Fair enough continue on if you get a substantial penalty and wait if you don't.
Disagree. If the person you hit goes off the track and spins, they will lose way more than the penalty time given.

Incredible driving as you get lap times equivalent to my meta car times, always appreciate your videos that continue to help me improve.

The BMW M3 GT sounds incredible, shame it's not that viable
yeah it is a shame. its one of my favorite Gr3 cars. thing drives great. sucks it's not more competitive
It's just not good on this track and other tracks with long straights and long fast corners, it's better for the tight twisty tracks and is actually very good on mount panorama except for the 2 starights along with the Alfa romeo and z4
Fantastic job, Tidge! I suppose I'll have to now shift my vote over to Roofless Boy, please!
M3 that is a choice. I liked this combo just too short
I'm DR B and sometimes i run into him. I just give him a wide berth and let other get people get taken out 🤣
ive raced him once on my second account and he just a utter idiot he just does it all time so ill never trust him
"I hope he just wipes out everybody and I sweep right on by" *Proceeds to wipe out the polesitter and other car*
Well that went better then expected. Congrats on the double win, good stuff.
this M3 is one of my absolute favorite Gr3 cars in the game. wish it was a bit more competitive to be more useable
Generally finding the spainish drivers tough to race fairly right now
It's been like that since the day the game came out. Spanish and Germans.
In terms of the leaderboard how is it ordered when you have so many with 1st place finishes? Or does it not matter at all?
Just Alphabetically, it's just to show the cars that have won there's no real preference. I was tempted to do when I had done it but alphabetically allows people to find their favourite cars a bit easier
A real struggle this time aye Tidg ! Actually good to see really, but fun to watch bud. Cheers
Ye big struggle, I had so many Podiums in this car!
@tidgney hah, that M3 was a beast in it's day though. Keep up the good work, 👍 you are one of the best out there
Congratulations for your two victories
The pace this week has been super strong! So much DR grinding in preparation for GTWS
Kimi is a paid actor 😂😂😂.
100% a GT developer

Seems more prevalent by drivers on the cusp of the different DR ratings. I often out qualify my abilty (Yarno Trulli) (Trulli train style) except many don't respect defensive driving in GT7
How does KIMI maintain an A/S rating while driving like that...?
Great effort in that m3

Tidge the legend 🙌
Had the pleasure of Kimi this morning 😂
A true living legend. Being Kimied at least once in a lifetime is a must.
is this M3 GT new? i dont recall ever seeing it in game
It was added back in GT Sport, but not many people use it because it’s too slow.
Like deployed 👍
😎🎙🏎✅️
Kimi made beat the meta successful
The M3 is the most glorious gr3 car imo. Too bad it’s a DR killer.
Beat the meta (with a helping hand from a certain Spaniard) 😂😂
Anyone see that so called Kimi Velocini interview earlier this week at chunky ribena podcast? 😅
Voting for the Nissan gtr 2013
They should disable the ability to flash the headlights... It's a bit annoying and I'm pretty sure you can't do that in real racing.
Some people do it accidently due to the location on a pad. Flashing does happen in real life though, but not as extreme as GT haha
lol well done. 2 wins
Tidgney that beat the meta DID NOT COUNT, Kimi smashed everyone off the track you didn't overtake them and win fairly.......

BTM My favourite
How do you even get this car?
It’s in the brand central
You can buy it from the dealership
Mazda Atenza please Tidge
So you actually owe the win to Kimmi. If it wasnt for him and his antics you wouldnt have gotten the win. So hi check is in the mail🤷🏼♂️😂
Mazda atenza gr3
Lexus proto
Lexus RC
Not That Quick is a fairly new RUclipsr - well worth checking out.
Help! Is kimi a dirty player?
Not for much longer lol
