Got to say, probably one of the best videos I've ever seen on GT7. Clear, to the point, factual and no fluff either side of the data to fill the video out. Been doing a few races on Brands Hatch. Really really fun. Lots of errors in there that keeps the race interesting. Tyres make a huuge difference (I never changed mine but no explains why the guy I was out pacing, was catching me up at the end) The track plays a little damp? I mean theres no rain but it does feel a little slippy at times? Is that possible on GT7 without actual rain? The track def feels more slippy than say a hot blue sky day.
There might be - it seems like the uphill left out of the 2nd sector has a small wet patch, but the rain indicator on the HUD doesn't seem to show anything.
Awesome video! Great info. Thanks for taking the time to work those out. I've employed them in offline races and was able to win regardless but to see how the times actually differ is amazing! Keep up the good work!
Another great video, would love to see what your strategies are. I simply dont have the time to trail out what works and find more enjoyment having a rought strat coming into a race. :D keep it my friend
This is really helpful, thanks! I'm finding the rcz gets livelier as fuel and weight go down, so pitting around lap 8 and having fresh tires when the car is lightest at the end of the race works pretty well
Enjoyed it, thank you for taking the time to do it. Without wishing to be 'that guy' but purely for the question to be put and as it is something that I apply when conserving fuel. Would you in future consider covering short shifting and coasting prior to braking into corners, as it would be nice to see someone with obvious pace employ it? Like deployed 👍 😎🎙🏎✅
This is great advice. Shifting at 3 quarter revs really helps save more fuel too. I am sure the cars vary quite a bit in terms of fuel usage though. I did a daily race C in the Mazda RX Vision and had an epic battle for the lead with another guy who I think was in the Aston Martin. We were trading positions until about half distance, until I realised to win I had no option but to massively fuel save and not pit. I had been running fuel mix 1 for the first two laps before the penny dropped and I turned it down. The slip stream effect is surprising and like you said allows you to save fuel without losing really any pace at all, I was mostly running mix 4 - 5 whilst in the slip stream and hardly losing any pace relative to him. Halfway through the race and the other guy is slightly ahead and peels into the pits, at which point I'm sure I've won the race as long as I can keep the car on the road. I won by over 10 seconds and finished with about 1.5 litres of fuel and very clapped out tyres.
interesting information. i have been using more power to gain advantage in time and wind up lapping the back markets even with 2 pit stops. I would rather drive on a fresh set of tires than risk going off track.
So basically if you try to race this track (or probably some other Daily Races) like you were playing NFS without needing to pit you basically cost yourself a lot of time. THAT's good to know because ,as it should be obvious with me, when I play NFS I don't think I ever had to worry about that. Having to factor that in for races and such in this game is gonna be key and probably one of the better ways to do that (for me) would be to take cars and drive them around tracks to figure out how well they do with tire wear and fuel consumption no? Anyways very good video dude and I'm gonna go check another out later for sure
i didn't even knew that group cars had that fuel map menu, haha. i lost a single player race for lack of fuel and i didn't knew why if i refiled at the same time as others! haha -.-' ... Gotta go test it.
I usually run the tires until 1 or 2 is completely done. Struggling with the Super Formula challenges. I’m gaining the whole time but the pit stop takes much longer than the other cars
Superb video bud. Ty. I don’t know about you but I was surely surprised at the trash videos out there. How does the yt algorithm even bring those vids up is beyond me.
I am stuck with how do I pick how much fuel & yes I want to change tires?! I spend like 10 secs before it does one or the other but I have no idea how it was done or what I am supposed to do. Is there a button etc? I can't find anything
hey fellas need sum help. how do I refuel? what button do i hit? because it always says 'don't refuel'. SO, how do i change that. I am up 2 the NEO-CLASSICS. I hate that i been stuck on this. I usually am able to change tires. BUT how do i select to fill my gas tank? PLZZZZ HELP me I came so far. i don't want to stay stuck on this stupid thing. thank u all in advance 4 any help u can give. me!!!!!!!
Pit stops are a bit unfair. In my Vulcan, I have to pit every lap at circuit de la sarthe (not sure if vehicle choice matters or if it's the same for all cars for that race). But meanwhile, everyone else pits every 2 maybe 3. And same for other races, some cars don't pit 2 or 3 laps after your first stop. And add on top of that it takes 30 seconds just to get to the crew. And not like they're 30 lap endurance laps when you have some chance to make up your lost progress.
@@Harmonic14 my laps times after the 6th lap due to reduced power because of fuel mapping caused me to have just under a second longer per lap until the last two laps that were 1 second more per lap. Not having to pit, is allowing me to win podium in this race.
I've honestly not paid much attention to that really. In Sport, and in GT7, I try to play with it, but the estimated remaining laps left doesn't change even by a fraction. So I can not tell really, how effective doing that actually is.

This video is almost of academic quality, props to you! Very well done with clear support for your decisions.
One of the top GT RUclipsrs. The blow up is coming

@@Harmonic14 Yeh, the left turn has a wet spot on the inside. Might try and break into it and see what happens.
Its because of the many uphill and downhill sections. The cars starts to feel light in uphill corners
Been enjoying the kart race so far but this will be really handy when I get to race 3. Thanks 👍
Nice one thanks. Been doing Go Karts and trying Gr 4 Suzuki Swift but will defo try this race now
Awesome video! Great info. Thanks for taking the time to work those out. I've employed them in offline races and was able to win regardless but to see how the times actually differ is amazing! Keep up the good work!
I really enjoy your videos on dissecting Gran Turismo. Great content. Look forward to watching them when I get off work.
Excellent video and break down. Thank you 🙏🏿
That was rad. Thanks for putting in all the hard work, again.

100% short shifting is huge on gran turismo

Anyone frustrated with how long pits take. 30s of waiting for the car to show up, while other cars pit past you?
100% thats what i put in to find how to fix it- its gotta be broken
Great video!

Hey mate, thank you so mcuh for this helpful video!
Can you please do this for all the online races? :D (also the weekly races)
Cheers!
Another killer video!
Wondering if short shifting works as well if it did in GT Sport
Thanks so much!!!!

I have to pit every 3 laps in 10 lap races ? What I do

When do you get the option to join online races? I've not seen this presented to me but I am relatively new into the game.
Just keep doing the cafe stuff u will open online very quickly
Iv been doing g an early pit on lap six. And iv had two podiums
So I got 1st place after realizing I can lay off the gas in straightaways
I was able to do 6 laps fuel mapping 1 and then the rest lean all the way. No pit.
As shown here, that isn't the best way to go
