About 300k or so without Clean Race Bonus. It's about half of BMB. A 40 minute Endurance race is 500k, which is better than the Endurance races in GT League. I thought you'd get a handicap bonus, but that seems to be reserved for GT League events.
Yeah they nerfed that some months ago. Before you could have it so that the GT1 cars run out of fuel halfway around 1 lap of the Nurburgring, letting you earn huge bonuses.

Frustrating

Tried the two 911's out this weekend and the 996 really is a gem. Modest power, not over tyre'd, lightweight (or at least it feels it).

Now we really need some competition versions of recent additions. Cup versions of the 911's, Group A touring/rally versions of the E30 M3, R32, Delta. So many amazing liveries yet we don't have the full competition cars. Many where in GT6 so there's hope.

Well at some point I will probably break my Pro doing these 8 hours ring test laps to get mileage points and 250k lol. I just wake up the morning and take the points. I position my DS4 with r2 held down on a chair with my baseball glove below it. Fuck it dude. The way they do shit in this game is ridiculous. There is a point where cars are earned, and when you are just putting shit in a window with a price tag almost no one can afford. It's my one problem with this game. I feel the dailies are shit too. Yeah, I have gotten some decent vision cars, but it's like oh bud you like Ferrari's well fuck you then here is a bus.

I'm not one for E-Sports but this manufactuer 'Battle Royale' was outstanding. Featured manufacturer representatives such as former Super GT driver Wakisaka, manufacturer employees and GT Sport stars.

Commentary by the ever excellent Jimmy Broadbent and crew. Really good to see how the presentation is taking a step forward with every event. As a fan of real motorsport never thought I'd be this interested in E-Sports.

GT Sport is the best racer imo. It's the only game to capture the racing competitive spirit.

They should have a "Live Now" button appear somewhere in the main menu when the stream is about to begin, instead of showing an annoying pop-up linking to post-race highlights. Kind of like Rocket League does.
Those races are brilliant, the quality of the commentaries (available in five/six different languages), presentation, and race direction are fantastic. They deserve more views.

I'd also like GT Sport to expand on the Sports aspect by having races from Sport mode available to view live. A bit like PGR3 used to do when you'd get a notification your race was being featured on Gotham TV.

Imagine being in the Sport lobby when you see the notification that your race will be featured on GT TV or something. What an extra thrill that'd add, and extra pressure.

PD have released details of the European FIA Finals this coming weekend. It includes a TBD track which I assume is to be included in the October updated. The event infogrpahics also show a handful of cars not included in GT Sport such as the Ferrari 599 and Koenigsegg. This past week Kaz was also working on GT Sport with Hamilton.

Taking advantage of the thread:

Is this game playable offline? I don't have an internet connection at home but I'd like to play a racing game (or should I go with Drive Club?)

Does this game have decent offline content? As in game modes

It has great single player content HOWEVER it needs online in order to save so I think that's a definite NO for you. Not sure about the state of Drive Club. I loved it at launch but haven't played it in a couple years.

Stage for European FIA finals in Spain. Looks like they have the latest Porsche 919 and Mercedes F1 on stage. Unless I'm mistaken it also looks like one of the billboards shows the Madrid Circuit.

The final is in X12014s on an unannounced track, I'm not sure they will be using Madrid circuit for that, it might just be those illustrations because they are in Madrid.

Even setting aside the fact that you need an internet connection, you definitely want Driveclub for SP content. I was duped by Polyphony's peace offering of GT League but it's really nothing like their SP offerings in the past.



Absolutely lovely
