New set Gran Turismo 7 Weekly challenges at the moment are available – depending in your time zone – together with a brand new set of 5 events to tackle over the following seven days.
We have something of a Christmas present on the show this week, as a special event race that has attracted a whole lot of attention because it was first announced returns in a brand new location. This sits alongside 4 events ripped from existing ones GT7World Circuits events to provide them a well-known format. Completing races throughout the week will earn you extra rewards depending on how lots of them you check off your list.
This week we'll start with a slow rollercoaster race because the European Sunday Cup 400 takes place on the reverse layout of the Alsace test track. This three-lap race features considered one of the strangest corners in the sport and requires a road automotive from a European manufacturer to participate. AI shall be near the “400” Performance Points (PP) value, but this just isn’t mandatory. With just 7,000 kr on offer, you possibly can just drop him off in a Ferrari or Skoda Vision GT…
However, the Lightweight K Cup race at Tokyo Expressway South has a limit of 400 PP, clockwise. For the event you will want a Kei automotive with Comfort Soft tires and no higher than 400 PP, which chances are you’ll must unlock, and the three-lap race shall be price 32,000 kr for victory.
Oddly enough, we're stopping on the Tokyo Expressway – a rare occasion when two races are held at one location in a single week – but heading clockwise to Circuit East for the Nissan GT-R Cup race. For this you will want a road model of the Nissan GT-R with an influence of not more than 700 PP, and winning over 4 laps offers you 72,000 kr.
There can also be a 700-point limit for the following race, the Ferrari Circuit Challenge on the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. While you'll obviously need a Ferrari for this, there's no other limit – you possibly can grab a Gr.3 automotive, for instance, and mute it within the settings – and also you'll get 95,000 cr for winning the five-lap race.
Finally, it’s a special event that brings back the “Group C World Racing Championship”. This race features 4 Group C cars – the Jaguar XJR-9, Mazda 787B, Nissan R92CP and Sauber C9 – in a synthetic intelligence field, wearing recreations of classic livery, but you may have no limits on the cars you possibly can enter within the race consisting of of ten laps across the Watkins Glen Long Course – even when sticking to the theme looks and feels more fun. For victory you’ll receive 140,000 kr.
For the second week in a row, all rewards are in the shape of credits. You'll receive tickets price 100,000 kr, 200,000 kr and 500,000 kr for completing one, three and five races – and don't forget that these are tickets to be utilized in the gift section within the garage, so don't forget and don't miss out in your hard-fought earned loot.
