Yes but the loaned cars stay in your garage so I think you can use them wherever. But you can't change their livery.
The Atenza is fast! I think it's in the top 10 at Kyoto right now

Uh, good to know! At Yamagiwa I have a really bad time that made me think otherwise.
If that will be the case, going for the underdogs could be a fun way to play this game.
I definitely agree with your complaints about the SR system (last night I got a 10 second penalty on the last turn for being rammed off the track while I had the driving line...this shit needs addressing), but I will say that at least in my experience, gaining positions in a race does move up the meter on the DR rating. It's just more pronounced if you get in the top 3. Conversely, losing positions reduces the rating.
I don't know how they're going to do that tournament, but maybe you'll have a better chance of the finals if you're competing with fewer Mazda drivers than say Ferrari or Nissan.
No DLC? Man if they don't have content soon GT sport is going to die quickly. Why aren't they communicating their plans?
Kaz lives on a different world, besides we will be getting the FIA races in a few days
I know it has been said before on here, but I really love the online racing. Sure there are some idiots out there, but for the most part most of my races have been clean, and when there is bumping I can usually attribute to me doing something that caused me to get bumped, like messing up on a corner and getting into the racing line not at speed. I never play any of my games online until I tried this demo, and it hooked me. Bravo PlayStation for the free demo, it got me to preorder the game after the first night I played it.
With all that being said, because I never play online my friends list is pretty small, so feel free to add me, I would love to have other players to compare times to. My PSN name is the same as my name on here.

I got 1:46.200 on Kyoto. So excited.
Then found out that gets me like, 9th place on pole position.
This game is the crusher of dreams and hopes.

Thanks! It's available for download. Just look for Toyota TS050 liveries, there aren't many.
Not sure if I spent more time driving, making liveries, or taking photos. lol
EDIT: Sorry, linked to the original ones, replaced them with the downsampled pictures.
Loving this RSR liv, great job.
Hey everyone, enjoyed lurking this place on GAF, never bothered to set up an account.
Sat at C/B right now, but a bit burnt out on the current Sport mode offerings. A week would probably be fine if we had say five events instead of three.
It really has done a great job of creating proper racing. Following someone closely is rewarding on its own, but when they make a mistake and you just make it past... amazing! Also, seeing someone who bumped you finish ahead but with a penalty that puts them behind you...
Thanks! I appreciate every comment.
Finally got my first win! Okay, I profited from a penalty, but if he didn't get it, I don't think he would've been in first place, well, in the first place. :D
Got some time at the weekend to have a go at Scapes, was mostly going for realism, let me know what you think!
Moody Lambo
GT86 on Holiday
Blue Flags at Dawn
How did you get your veneno up there? :) They are pretty much photorealistic, lovely.
I spend a ton of time between the different modes including scapes and livery editor but my go to thing is custom races in the 10-20 lap range, standing start from the rear with expert difficulty. Soon I will start to mess around with accelerated tire wear and fuel consumption. If the AI could be just a little faster it would be perfect.
Most likely tmrw. I don't mind the current way it's done as it keeps me engaged with the tracks and I get to familiarize myself with it. Though I don't mind if they did it every three days
Congrats I've yet to beat it. What strategy did you use for pitting?
I'm not Pharaoh but pitting in lap 9 worked for me atleast. Switching to mediums and full tank with the Subaru.
Thanks. I've used the Subaru with racing medium tires. Pitted in lap 9 for a full tank. Can't say it will work every time because sometimes the top 3 just got too far ahead and you're left with a big gap and nobody to slipstream making it almost impossible to catch up even with a good pace.
Nice, same strategy I've used.
I'm so tired of driving clean and losing DR because of it. Almost feel like it'd be better to bump my way up to the podium like everyone else is, at least until I can get at a higher DR.

He only changes the daily when he runs out of fuel. Little did we know his fuel consumption settings were set to 0.00xx . If the above fails he changes the daily when he grows tired of the track/race, which he never does. Finally the third and kill switch to make sure the daily races get changed on time no matter what happens he sets an alarm to re-occur daily. While interning , a young bright student accidently messed with the settings and changed it to remind only once a week. No one has been able to fix the settings to this date as the reminder was set in a very complicated system.
That being said I like that daily races last multiple days but it would be nice for quicker updates.
[/QUOTE Ludicrous! GT on the gavk burner currently while i whack through Wolf 2 and AC but itchin to get back on it
Don't do that. You will regret that. Try to hold on untill you get to SR A or B. Races there are a joy to play and driven extremely clean. Which does not mean that mistakes sometimes happen of course. :-)
YO. The Dailies changed.
N300 -- Kyoto Yamagiwa II -- 2 Laps, 12 cars -- fixed (single car: Audi TTS)
Gr. 4 -- Maggiore II -- 4 Laps, 16 cars -- fixed (BoP)
Gr. 3 -- Suzuka Circuit -- 8 Laps, 20 cars --fixed (BoP)

Wow, 8 lap Suzuka. That will be a tense race, thanks for update notice.
I didn't even realize at first because the Gr4 race was still in the middle. I went to go race in Kyoto, picked the GT-R, and I was like...why is the time of day different. Go out on the track for qualifying...why does this look so different...uh..this is Maggiore!
I just raced on the reverse Yamagiwa...that's actually pretty fun, and the TTS is on soft sport tires. Of course it was a clusterfuck of people like me who didn't really know that version of the track, ended up with a red SR. :/
Fuck. Yes.
I'm very happy with the every 3/4 days schedule like they seem to be doing at the moment.
Damn, reverse Maggiore is not easy. Lots of straights leading into off-kilter hairpin turns, and one totally blind hairpin. Also the late afternoon time of day doesn't help matters, there's one turn where the sun is almost blinding.
Fuck yesss, give me Suzuka every week Kaz! Mastering those S corners is one of the best driving experiences ever
Well, this one took 6 days lol
Honestly, it's felt like less time because of the tuning element meaning that I was able to get faster every day I played the old batch of courses.
I've been enjoying the length of the rotations. Gave me enough time to nail my first win after spending many races learning the intricacies of the track and the behaviour of other racers on said track
The Kyoto Gr4 race is gone, but I'm scared badly by the fact that there I discovered how far I am from running decently. I golded at the second attempt the circuit practice, but that basically means nothing. The sad reality is that I am 4 seconds away from an average time and don't have the slightest idea of what I'm doing wrong. I tried to race dozen of laps, experimenting with settings and I could gain not much more than half of a second. I grasped the trajectories, and all I can see that can be done to improve is to clean up the little errors.
Watching other's replays it's like watching a Gr3 lap, I'm getting a little discouraged.

Yeah, completely agree with that. I don't have much time to play nowadays and 6-7 days seem to be the sweet spot to let me play with the tuning and master the track
Some tips and advice:
- Always try to take different trayectories, and if you see you're losing time in a corner, try to approach it in a different way
- Use the whole width of the track and be aggresive with the curbs, take full advantage of them
- Explore the limits of your car and the track as well, some corners allow you to put almost your 4 wheels on the grass to go faster
- Always try to prioritize corner exit speed than any other thing when you go into a corner. In Yamagiwa for instance, you could gain around 0.5-1 second in each of the wide left corners if you had a nice exit speed
- I don't know if you're using it, but try to keep TC to a minimum (0 or 1). It's easier to spin and drift that way but once you get used to it you'll go faster in general
- Check the replays of other players and check their braking points and their trayectories, I have learnt a lot using this
- Use different tunings and setups until you find one you're comfortable with. Check GTPlanet for some setups advice
So far I feel like Kyoto is going to be a mess with those slippery TTSes on soft tires. Maggiore has tricky turns, but there's more room to spread out. I think that's going to end up the sweet spot for SR this round.
I really wish GTS had a feature where you could set up a running start on individual turns to try different approaches quickly.

I won my first online race last night. Felt like an incredible achievement and was one hell of a battle, right to the end.
what was your time on kyoto?
Also, I recently purchased the GR3 Porsche, but I can't join GR3 sport races with it. Am I missing something?
Waiting for impressions on the Suzuka race, 8 laps in Suzuka with 20 GR3 cars might be a bad combination for SR lol
Some cars are inherently better than others for specific circuits, but 15 seconds is an insane gap lol Which cars/circuit are you refering to?

This weeks GR3 race seens like it is a fixed setup. Seens it does not allow garage cars to participate. If it is true, this is a shame. One cool thing of last week were the field full of different liveries.
So about my livery issue... see I told you all I was dumb, I was adding Scape Photos to my library, not the actual liveries... oops :P
