A new week brings a new set of Gran Turismo 7 Daily Races, with three fresh events now live and running through next Monday.
Gr.3 around Laguna should pull a healthy entry list, but it’s a tight track for racing. The opening sequence into Turn 1 is a classic dive-bomb invitation, and the Corkscrew rewards patience over ambition. Expect to see both abused.
Race A keeps things considerably smaller: four laps of the Tokyo Expressway Central Clockwise in the Daihatsu Copen ’02 on Comfort Mediums. With a kei convertible on Tokyo’s long straights, this one is going to be slow. It’ll be a race of momentum and bump drafts more than anything else.
Race B moves to Big Willow in Gr.4 for seven laps on Racing Hards. Willow Springs’ International Raceway is fast, flowing, and famously unforgiving. Understeer wide and there’s nothing to hit, but there’s also nothing to slow you down before you’re a long way off the racing line. Overtaking is hard at the best of times here, and a misjudged move can get ugly fast.
