I remember driving on this legendary track using Suzuki Grand Vitara Escudo Pikes Peak, the red one. Mowing those corkscrew chicane with that monstrous front grill skirting was the ultimate pinnacle of my miserable real life. GT2 was the real shit then and now❤
I had upgraded that car to the max, and took it to the high speed ring. It was still spinning its 4 tyres at something like 400kph. With inadequate aero settings, you'd wheelie down the whole straight. i don't recall the top speed, but it probably almost broke the sound barrier at some point
A couple of Saturday’s ago Steve met my 13 year old nephew at Buckmore park Karting circuit on a club 100 Academy day, he was so happy you took the time to have a photo, and even give him some racing advice! Thanks for taking the time to inspire the next generation and representing the sport so well….. and for my breakfast entertainment….. and of course sayings such as “the shadow realm” lol
The corkscrew gets the notorious reputation but the big kink before truly is the most difficult to get right. It's so easy to go wide into the gravel if youre even a little late on your turn-in.
I've been whatching your videos for a while now, and finally few days ago I stared playing the daily races in GT7. In my very first race ever I finished 6th, which I think is a sign itself :D
physics now are so much fun, less traction with most vehicles, over steer at faster speeds, understeer at slower speeds and impossible to turn while breaking or barely touching the throttle with your pinky toe going walking speeds, you're skill is noteworthy Mr gt 私は自分の命を救うためにブレーキをかけることができません
To answer Steve's reference that IndyCar raced at Laguna Seca: There was a memorable event during the 1996 season when Alex Zanardi brilliantly performed "The Pass" on Brian Herta coming into the corkscrew on the last lap. Man, that was a real jump out of your seat moment!
14:20 I think they were trying to send another driver to hell, for whatever reason, but weren’t close enough and thought they couldn’t catch up to do so. Not even a dive bomb, just a bomb lol
Steve! Loved the analyses style of the lap starting at the 8 min mark. I’d love a series of videos just like that of your favorite tracks with tips to improve. As a newer sim driver I think it would be awesome!
Just started daily races for the first time yesterday. Drove a genesis x got 5th on the pole and 5th at the end lol. wasnt easy. Ran this track so many times lol your vids have helped me tremendously
Laguna is so much fun, I usually don’t like such twisty tracks but for some reason I have so much fun on that track. It might just be the rolling start, but this track seems to have a lot less accidents on it too
Steve I’m really appreciating the chase cam views from the car behind you during your races, it is much more informative than the in car / bonnet cam. I race in chase cam and may be biased, but you can literally see the bigger picture. Any chance of a live stream soon, you seem to have regained some enthusiasm for gt recently…
That guy missing his breaking point into the hairpin has happened to to me before 😂. that guy drove through the sand realm to visit Barry R on his way to the shadow realm
Thanks for that explenation on how to drive this track. Earlier today i had major problems finding that sweet spot and was basicly all over the place. My best run was around 1m 23,5s or so. Turns out i brake to late causing me to constantly run wide haha Tnx for the great content! Hopefully we meet some day on the track :3
0:56 I mean yeah, they race indycars pretty much every year here. maybe you like the group 3 cars to drive. but I must say watching indycar around this place is absolutely sublime
Really enjoyed this close racing in this vid. Gave it a little thought about the fastest cars that run on this track regularly and i believe it my be the TransAm series cars 800hp tube chassis with high down force cars in a multi class race along side the GT series cars. Looking forward to what is next upload
I got this game the other day and having a blast. I’m not skilled enough to even attempt online. I’m getting better through the cafe but braking and correct gear are very difficult. What are the best ways to better myself at this?
An explanation for 14:31: The guy was trying to take out the white car that was on the exit of the turn, probably due to anger at being overtaken or something, but ended up missing.
Been playing this race all day , don’t have a steering wheel but managed a 123.2 but still can’t get the win , either 2nd or 3rd so well done your really good
I'm never on pace with super GT... my best time is with the M3 @ 1.24.3. It's difficult to stay consistent with these new physics. But I need to up my game... need to find out what I'm doing wrong.
Love your videos!! I know you use the McLaren wheel but I’m curious how you assign buttons on it since it isn’t listed in the Controller Menu inside GT7. Please help. I want to replace my GT Pro wheel.
In 2007 they raced the LMP1 Audi R8 in laguna Seca for the ALMS championship against the LMP2 Porsche Spider. There is a very good video of it on RUclips!!!
Spoiling us with content recently Steve thank you 👍. Any more VR coming up? How are you getting on with it? I have tried to stick to VR now, I'm more consistent but can't get the peak lap times. Think it's the fear of dying as before you would quite happily go past the limits to find them.
Thought what new track is that, only realized they rotated the map. Funny enough, from GT2 to GT7 and even in real life, the corkscrew is appproached at about 60 mph with the proper entry Ah yes the pink -Yaris- Supra
I would love to see you try a "Hold the Position" challenge with the Citroen. Its a car ive loved since GT5, but a car that i see almost noone use, especially in 'A' or better lobbies
Tried this out last night, started in P14, ended up in P2 with a 5 second gap between myself and first place at the end, it was MESSY and it seemed no one knew what track limits meant.
You should try it in Driver rating D I have been trying my hardest to race clean and get out of the D rating as it’s just a demolition Darby with everyone getting away with it. And the drivers that are on the receiving end of the dirty drivers seem to be the only one that gets penalties.
I think that guy who crashed at t1 did that on purpose because of braking too late or a problem on the brake pedal. He did that to avoid hitting any one. But the accuracy to shoot through the gap was spectacular, I must say. And that's nice of him. Show this on the next video daddy
This might be the most prolific I’ve ever seen superGT going back to the forza days
sex
14:50 how nice for Barry to meet his cousin ‘Barry R’
Particularly prolific?
Lol
Steve, I wanna thank you from the bottom of my heart for the tons of entertainment you've provided us these past few months... it's been so awesome
Big up
100%
shut up weeb uwu

3:40 "The gravel had its way with him" -SuperGT 😂
This is such a fun track, one of my favorites. It's great for the Karts in the game as well.
Sounds like fun, Might give it a GO-kart 😅
@@howdnz i see what you did there ;)
I've been whatching your videos for a while now, and finally few days ago I stared playing the daily races in GT7. In my very first race ever I finished 6th, which I think is a sign itself :D
congrats!
Love it when you try these Races with other cars instead of the Main ones 🙌🏼
Was at the Indy Car race at Laguna last year. 155mph before braking into the Corkscrew (they were passing each other in it!).
Your commentary is always impeccable! 😂🖤
I always like to see you starting from the back. It makes for a fun race and for good overtaking instructions.
thanks for the tips. definitely improved my lines and thus my time down to 1:23.. im only a level C and won two races today !

Car switch up at the end was awesome. Cool to see some of the other cars you can choose to race.

I appreciate you talking out your strategies/decisions, it has helped me improve my own racing significantly
@7:07 excellent sportsmanship! You love to see it. Awesome races as always!
Can tell Steve's enjoying the game more at the moment, the uploads are thick and fast ❤
I’m glad I got my dose of GT sooner than expected.
14:20 I think they were trying to send another driver to hell, for whatever reason, but weren’t close enough and thought they couldn’t catch up to do so. Not even a dive bomb, just a bomb lol

This track had endless posibilities to send it, multiple portals to the shadow realm!
Lol true, tried this track yesterday first time only with AI and I flew out of the track so many times, the corners are scary on this one xD
True. Tan this race like 5 times and I got punted every. Single. Race. 😭
1:15 and 6:00 - STOKIEBEN89 got shafted twice in the corkscrew on the 1st lap. Racing incidents both times, still a big F for the poor guy.😓
Just started daily races for the first time yesterday. Drove a genesis x got 5th on the pole and 5th at the end lol. wasnt easy.
Ran this track so many times lol your vids have helped me tremendously
Laguna is so much fun, I usually don’t like such twisty tracks but for some reason I have so much fun on that track. It might just be the rolling start, but this track seems to have a lot less accidents on it too

That guy missing his breaking point into the hairpin has happened to to me before 😂. that guy drove through the sand realm to visit Barry R on his way to the shadow realm
The racing between you and the German from 16:38 onwards was fantastic. That’s what sim racing is supposed to be about. Great stuff.
the corkscrew on this track in forza is fearsome, I wanted to see how you took it and then it was like 1/2 the elevation change I'm used to seeing lol
If that’s true, Forza screwed up. I’ve driven and ridden this track IRL a dozen times not to mention spectating at WSBK and MotoGP
That one guy must've spilled his G-Fuel mid turn
Man what is that GLAAAAAAARE ahahah 17:11 to 17:12 the sun just goes" well I've done enough, let's switch off a bit".
Thanks for that explenation on how to drive this track. Earlier today i had major problems finding that sweet spot and was basicly all over the place. My best run was around 1m 23,5s or so.

Oh lord, I love Laguna Seca, and the chaos is funny until they hit you

Thanks for showing your qualifier lap and explaining some driving tips.. that's helpful!
14:35 man literally did a Valentino Rossi in Spielberg 2020
Steve i see you are using my livery in this video..thanks very much choosing it,its a great honour all the best gazza(Greyswolf-7)
I love this track I play this track a looot and I win a few races but it’s 2 chaotic
To answer you, yes IndyCar races at Laguna Seca as the final race of the season! Awesome race, definitely one to watch!
I got this game the other day and having a blast. I’m not skilled enough to even attempt online. I’m getting better through the cafe but braking and correct gear are very difficult. What are the best ways to better myself at this?
Last race in recent seasons in Indycar is at Laguna Seca, mate ;)
Super GT video checklist:
Meet Barry R: Check
Send to shadow realm: Check
Finish in P6: Check
Conclusion: Another great quality Super GT video :)
"I think they have done IndyCar around here in the past." The past in this case being every year from 1983 to 2004 and then since 2019.
I love how the video length is 20:23 exactly.
They are actually still doing IndyCar at Laguna Seca:)
RIP Scott Speed, dearly missed and immediately forgotten, sample text
It may surprise you, but gr1 cars have raced in this track too. I think it was LMP1, LMh or LMDh.
An explanation for 14:31: The guy was trying to take out the white car that was on the exit of the turn, probably due to anger at being overtaken or something, but ended up missing.
Been playing this race all day , don’t have a steering wheel but managed a 123.2 but still can’t get the win , either 2nd or 3rd so well done your really good
14:30 That was a clear OLD SCHOOL Ramming attempt gone terrible wrong. lol
I'm never on pace with super GT... my best time is with the M3 @ 1.24.3. It's difficult to stay consistent with these new physics. But I need to up my game... need to find out what I'm doing wrong.
IndyCar's final season race is now at Laguna, since you were talking about it.
Chaotic indeed, my SR went from S to B in 2 races🤦♂️ because of incidents... always a joy to watch you GT🔥✌️
Love your videos!! I know you use the McLaren wheel but I’m curious how you assign buttons on it since it isn’t listed in the Controller Menu inside GT7. Please help. I want to replace my GT Pro wheel.
Very interested to see Giga GT take to the track.
This man is churning out the content right now and I love it. Power to you, Steve
In 2007 they raced the LMP1 Audi R8 in laguna Seca for the ALMS championship against the LMP2 Porsche Spider. There is a very good video of it on RUclips!!!
Lol, the cosmic odds, my RUclips crashed with the “Lag” and it came back right when you said you had a bit of lag in game.
Also
Do a drag wheely
Poor BEN was driven off the track at the same corner two races in a row :D
Hella excited whenever I see a vid of yours, keep up the good work friend! :)
a question here : why do you exit the corkscrew in 3rd instead of 2nd ? could give better accel
Spoiling us with content recently Steve thank you 👍. Any more VR coming up? How are you getting on with it? I have tried to stick to VR now, I'm more consistent but can't get the peak lap times. Think it's the fear of dying as before you would quite happily go past the limits to find them.

Ah yes the pink -Yaris- Supra
ive been having a lot of good tidy races on laguna seca this time, lots of good fun... close racing
5:22 genius
INDYCAR still races at laguna seca, it’s their season finale race
I loved this race, got me a couple wins and podiums, this race in particular got me to B rank
I would love to see you try a "Hold the Position" challenge with the Citroen. Its a car ive loved since GT5, but a car that i see almost noone use, especially in 'A' or better lobbies
15:04 look at that beautiful Rothmans livery
You should make a video with an eye tracker, would be pretty interesting to see where you're watching!
also, may i suggest the Mazda Atenza Gr.3. I found it turning very nicely on this track.
laguna seca is easily one of the best tracks for multiplayer such a fun course
That lap 1 in your 3rd race was Verstappen-like.
Tried this out last night, started in P14, ended up in P2 with a 5 second gap between myself and first place at the end, it was MESSY and it seemed no one knew what track limits meant.
Steve! I wanna be the first to congratulate you on 800K subscribers!!!! Keep up the great work mate.
These videos are therapy for me.
5 > 1, this is the best educational channel on youtube!
SuperGT second last video title: the fun races are finally back
SuperGT latest video: GT7, fun but also very chaotic
Love this guy 😂
20:05 The word you're looking for is "je ne sais quoi."
theres an S license with the F1 car on this track, it is bonkers.
Man I'm loving the consistent uploads!
You should try it in Driver rating D I have been trying my hardest to race clean and get out of the D rating as it’s just a demolition Darby with everyone getting away with it. And the drivers that are on the receiving end of the dirty drivers seem to be the only one that gets penalties.
4:12
Almost took the wrong turn😭😭😭
Whenever he brings out his Alex Albon account, you know he's gonna race dirty and then blame Albon for it lol
14:41 his mom snatched his controller lol.
It almost looks like Steve is enjoying racing again....or the car payments are behind 😂
Dude, you are spoiling us with all the uploads!
Do you play on manual or sequential? Im realy interested
Thankz for uploading steve
Deux vidéo en deux jour tu nous fait plaisir super gt
Which camera do you use during the race regardless the replay?
Hello SuperGT, viewer here. I wonder where gone outro? Didn't see it in a while. i'm really missing it.
Is it better to be on wheel or is it ok with a controller for this game
I had gret time renting the '81 car, cant remember the name. It perfomred really well
I think that guy who crashed at t1 did that on purpose because of braking too late or a problem on the brake pedal. He did that to avoid hitting any one. But the accuracy to shoot through the gap was spectacular, I must say. And that's nice of him. Show this on the next video daddy
man that gtr screaming is eargasmic
Is ending well in the end the opposite of dying by death?
Yeah they still do Indy car around here, September 10th this year
