I don't know how I found you, but I'm glad I did. You are one of the most well spoken, well mannered, cool and collected people I've found on this site. And I absolutely *love* long videos, so your uploaded streams are right up my alley. I'd subscribe twice if I could, man.
Great videos and great tipps Z28Gaming. Thanks alot. appreciate your solidarity with other gamers. What kind of pedals do you use ? I use the basic Thrustmaster pedals together with the t300 rs wheel but the brake pedal is somewhat disapointing. I put the included mod, that rubber cone in the back, however it's still kind of unsatisying. It's kind of strange that they took out the brake intensity adjustments from prevoius GT games. I also noticed that the grey breake force bar next the the speedo loads all the way up in your video. Somehow mine only loads up to about 75% of the bar. I tried braking with a joypad to see if it had to do with the cone inhibiting the pedal and it also only loaded up to 75%. Where can I adjust that to max out on the braking? Anyways I'm always either braking too soon or or too late in tight corners coming from high speed straights, probably due to that grey bar not loading up to 100% which is kind of nerve wrecking. Trying to find a solution but don't really know where and how...
In case you haven‘t noticed by now: cones in GT Sport are markers for turning/braking points. Single orange cone: steer into turn, or at apex steer out of turn. Orange and white cone, soft brake. Two white cones: hard brake. Helps you on every track.
I have. I do these videos so people can see how to take these turns visually. Sometimes you can break after the cones, sometimes before. It's nice for people to see a general guide on how they can do this. Some people learn better from videos. I know I do.
This is awesomesauce man. I've been stuck above 1:50s and 6 laps after watching this, I've already cut 3 seconds off and know where to get a few more seconds. Thanks.
Awesome video man! Good job! That 4th gear S corner is magnificent! I didn't think it was possible and if executed correctly it can win the race for you! Keep it up!
Hey. Thanks for taking the time to create the video. You definitely warrant my subscription and hopefully other new GT players. I’ll be looking forward to other track guides. 👍🏻
Nice video. Very smooth and gentle driving with great lap times. And you make it so easy for understanding. I can't wait to improve my lap times after work today. Thanks for the sharing and keep it up. Thumbs up from the far east --- Hong Kong
Extremely helpful. Please provide more of these types of videos. Not only with driving lines, but with setups (not just settings, but general theory based on car types). I am just getting into sim racing sims, and until I saw this video I had been tweeking settings over and over with my best time being 1:47. TEACH ME!!!!!
Hey Gary, thanks for watching! Check out the description and I listed my particular tune for this video. In the future I will be showing the car settings. I agree it's helpful.
Thank you so much! As a beginner this information is extremely helpful. Already noticed about 3 to 4 things I was doing this wrong just trying to learn tracks on my own! Hope we see more videos like this. Ultimate beginner guide! 👍
Z28Gaming enjoyed it was an understatement. I've last played GT in GT2... so it's all new to me. I was approaching the track all wrong. I timed a 1:46 on qualifying. I closed app after an hour of it but I can't wait to get back in. Hope you consider more videos like this for the weeklies.
Great video Z28. Wish I had found this earlier on in the week. Can get 1.43 but now I can see where to make the rest of the time up. Look forward to the next one ;)
The C7 is actually pretty solid and a great car. It doesn't spin too much. I have a generic tune for it. At some point during a live stream, or a video I'll show the tune. Even stock the C7 is fun to drive. Try the viper as well. GR.3 and GR.4 are great cars.
I just found this, what a big help, i knew i was losing big time in a few corners. the guys near me in the races were slowing me down loads in parts of the race but equal//faster in some corners. first corner i was doing to slow and the other sweeping long one at the top of the bank. also losing time but not as much through the last 2 corners. i dropped from a 153/155 down to a 148/50 with practice. them long sweepers were killing my times. this going to help thanks
Cheers mate from Oz. I have both GT Sport and PC2, I really enjoy both. Do you have a preference and why? Also how long have you been racing and what type of hours per week do you put in to get and stay at such a high level?
Hey man! Love this video! It helped me out immensely. I enjoy GT Sport a lot, but I'm pretty slow, so I'd definitely love to see your take on more tracks and also see how you tune different cars. You're awesome! Keep it up!
Excellent! They should put your tutorial in the game, I'm not kidding! Thanks for going to all the trouble of showing everyone the right way, you could do all the tracks you're comfortable with, then add the next ones!
This was a good refresher, but I learned the final block to reassure your victory. I basically learned everything else from playing racing games at a very young age, and hence I carried my foreknowledge and intuition into GT4. And then I learned racing lines and braking points and feathering to an extent. But I learned feathering was way more essential since I began watching your videos. Your videos are very inspiring and educational even though you play more GT for fun. I havent played a Sim in a while like GT. Id like to get the feel of it again.
I wish I could play this game more competitively, but i'm choosing to make videos for you guys and have some fun along the way. It's basically a choice I have to make. In order to be on that "elite" of the "elite" level it requires a lot of seat time and dedication. I'm more dedicated to having fun with you guys and enjoying the game being a clean driver.
Good job dude this is definitely 1 of the best tip video I've seen and I seen a lot I'm trying to figure out a way to get faster without playing in manual. If that's even possible,17 minutes went by quick
Honestly, I would keep playing with a manual. You need to downshift properly and at times you need to shift early in order to avoid your tires from spinning. A lot of advantages to manual.
Wow I thought I had this track nailed but after watching your rundown I can see where I need to work on a few areas! I also like the way you took the first hairpin wide but during a race I'm forced to block the inside or I get bumped off the track XD
Very good indeed, i bought the game this weekend and played in this track yesterday. Keep the good work! I think that i got a Honda NSX and made 1.46 ....so i have to make so much better. well done!
wow fantastic video. I can never break the damn 1:46 barrier and I think this will help a lot. Im from Australia and only seen one driver with 1:42 time before from Japan.
I think I'm going to do at least one different track per week. Maybe two. It seems like the response is good, so i'll keep it up if you guys enjoy it. I have another one being posted by tonight.
Hi Z. Saw your video yesterday first time and i absolutely love it. I was searching guides how to improove my lap time and things like that. Very nice video. Sorry for my english. Maybe you should talk how to tune car before going to circuit. One nore time very gratefull to you.
hey Z great guide and a 1:43 without trying ! best lve got so far is a 1:44, watching your turns were you talk about staying on 5th gear l cant hold 110/112mph without going wide, god knows how you keep that on the track i cant take it more than 100mph. If you have any tips on tunes be great if you could share!
Thanks dude! Was running 1:45s with the GT-R and wondering what I can do to improve. I think my problem is corner entry speed being too high on the hairpin turns. Thanks for sharing! Subscribed!
That's exactly what I need!Thanks a lot! Its amazing how easy you made these fast laps, you didnt push hard since there was more space on track, right?. Have you tuned your car?It seems to have a higher top speed you actually need on this track and I think lower it will make the car accelerate faster. I'm using a controller and I'm 2 sec slower than you when I did everything right.I need to replay this for at least 5 times to check what makes me slow. Really amazing work! want some more!
I didn't push the car too hard during the race to avoid mistakes. No reason to go as fast as possible If you're in the lead, stay calm and follow your line. You should push harder only when needed. I added the Tune in the description. Give it a shot!
hey man ur amazing and so is ur guide, i am still new to sport. the last grand turismo game i played was on ps2. but anyway do u have any beginner tips? btw what's ur personal fav car?
If you look under my popular uploads, I do have a beginner tip video. It's very basic and should help. Honestly, I think my favorite car in this game is the GT Citroen.
I was just looking for ones of these videos! I just need to figure out how to tune the Subie to keep up with the GTR. I might go back to the GTR we'll see. Thanks for the great upload! Do you have your GTR settings anywhere btw?
Hey great video 👍🏼 I was just wondering what wheel do you use , and could you recommend some setting ie Togue , sensitivity setting for a g29 I use please
I'm using the T300rs with logitech G27 pedals. I only changed my wheel sensitivity in the advanced tab during gameplay. Both options are set to 4-4. I only did this because the torque was starting to leave marks on my hand. It doesn't make a difference where you change it. Whatever is comfortable for you.
When I buy that car and practice with it, i'll definitely give it a shot. I don't have any tuning videos yet, but I left the tune for the GTR in the description.
I do actually. On my next stream i'll show my transmission. But, if you want a good tune head over to GTPlanet forums. They have a bunch of tunes to choose from!
Great video, thanks for posting the tune, i'm going to try it. Can you tell us your overall thought on tuning? Like do you tune differently for diff tracks, do you tune specific gears, what tells you when you went too far? Do you do the work or is there a site you go to for recommended tuning? The reason I ask is that I never really messed with individual tuning in games before but it's painfully obvious that I need to start. Also, I noticed in your video you said that you can lose your tuning when going online. I actually thought that each car had to be tuned the same. Hearing its not the case makes me happy b/c I was getting deflated seeing times way faster than mine.
I personally don't like tuning. This week it looks like they disabled tuning for gt sport events. (which is great) But to answer your question. Yes, when tuning is available you have to have something different for each track. It's a lot of time. (Unless you're good at it)
Maybe I should learn to tune. I'm always too. Stubborn to do it but I bet I can get these times now. Ran a mid 1:44 in a cayman GT4 doing some dangerous kerb railing on the two sweepers lol.
Haha, I know what you mean. I'm not a huge fan of tuning. I find generic stuff on GT Planet. It's very time consuming. Sometimes I wish all the cars were equal and it was more of a "driver to driver" race, but I understand that tuning is a part of racing,.
Agreed 100%. I've fallen into the trap of technique over everything, but there's only so much you can do (unfortunately). Although, pulling off some crazy Fujiwara style gutter turn will mess with peoples heads in a race hahaha. Definitely subscribing even just for the lulz.
How highly would you recommend a steering wheel and pedals over a controller? Im thinkin of make a purchase on a wheel and pedals.which budget wheel/pedal combo would you recommend? Thanks
It depends how into the game you are.. The purchase could be more than your PS4. If you love racing games, then I would definitely get a wheel. If you're a casual racer, then i would say no. You can become just as fast on controller. (I know for a fact) If you decide to get a wheel, keep in mind you need a comfortable place to put it. I purchased a playseat from their website. Always think about where it's going to be. As far as the wheel, I recommend the T-GT, T300RS, or logitech G29. (In that order) If you're on a budget, the T150 is a good entry level wheel.Thanks for watching man. I hope this helps.
Thank you for subbing ridler237. I really appreciate you watching. Definitely take your time. (Hint) Try to find a return policy and see how you like it. Not sure where you're from, but "Best Buy" does about 13 days or so.
Instant sub. My best time is a 1:45 so far, but I haven't bought a race wheel or anything yet; this guide will help. Is there a reason almost everyone in that grid (and in a lot of the races I've been in) is using the GT-R?
Thanks, I appreciate it. I think the reason people use the GTR is because it's an easy all wheel drive GR.4 car. I wouldn't say it's the best, but definitely the easiest to get pretty consistent times.
You can still manage getting very fast times with a controller. A of people do. I just don't want you thinking that you'll be immediately faster. Most people become slower at first. It takes practice. If you choose to try a wheel, opt for the T150 on a budget, or the T300RS-T-GT-Logotech G29. Those are all great wheels for this game.
nice one man, what about the tunning of the car? what is the settings ? I've been getting 1:50 with mustang and I think it is because of the car configuration.
It's really all about tuning. You can make any car extremely fast if you're knowledgable enough. The GTR (GR.4) is definitely one of the best "stock" cars.
Z28Gaming I was surprised at how simulative GT-Sport actually is. And how well optimized it is for steering wheels. In my opinion this is the first GT game where countering oversteer actually works properly. The downsides of GT-Sport is street cars on sports tyres feel floaty, to me. But im glad the race cars on slicks handle great. And the other issue i have is that there aren't enough tracks, (real ones). To me this is an online GT3 racing title. And thats okay. Im sure a lot of people will enjoy it for that. Over all i think its an enjoyable racing game. Its much better than i expected. Its not Project cars 2 level of simulation, but its not arcade either. The Ferrari 458 GT3 at Autodromo de Interlagos is pretty awesome. Great car and track combo.
Exactly. I think it's a fun game. Sure, its not a "true sim," but it captures a more fun aspect of racing in my eyes. I find PC2 to be a little boring.
The 458 is a hard car to drive and gets loose pretty easy without a tune. Try the GTR and i added the tune in the description. I'll be doing different cars in the future upon request.
Z28Gaming cool yeah I certainly found that out ha but I guess experience in a difficult car to drive should make for a better experience in the Gtr, I think it's just with being spoilt for choice when they're all 350,000cr, I decided to go with the Scooby then Rari 1st 😀
Z28Gaming yeah definitely only had a few hours on the game as only purchased it Friday and had to just use the two day free PlayStation live trial for now so I'm sure with more practice I'll be happy to get that 10 seconds off my time, I was expecting more tracks in sport mode but then wasn't sure if you get more to choose from when join other lobby races? 👍🏼 (:
Yes, I'm using the T300. No, I've never notice a change in performance at all. Honestly, i'm really impressed with this wheel. I've had it for a long time. My next buy will be a fanatec CSL though.
Z28Gaming Have you had any reliability issues with the T300? Reviews said the G29 was more durable. I just bought the G29 last week and I still have a week left to return it. I can't return the Wheelstand pro within 30 days. What kind of pedals are you using? I realized that makes a more time difference that the Wheel itself. I sucked with the G29 for the first couple hours and now after 3 days I'm closing in on my top lap time with the controller now. Thanks man, I found your channel and subbed immediately and I'm sure the way I subbed your channel will also abd you'll grow pretty fast.
Thanks A Z. Sorry for the late response. I'm trying to catch up with all messages. I've had zero problems with my T300 and I've had it for a long time. I use the G27 pedals with my T300. The stock T300 pedals aren't very good. Also, the G29 is a great wheel. I would stick with that since you already bought it and the pedals are great. Thanks a lot for subbing and your feedback. I appreciate you watching.
Hi Z28, now that setup work Rights i make 1.42.2. I love the Nissan, but on this track you really have to try the scirocco. Whit a good setup you can go under 42. But, now that daly mission change, how e can see our lap record?? Byeee and nice video!!
Thank you! When the daily missions change, the leaderboard resets. So you won't be able to see your record anymore. (Until the track comes around again)
Oh, I thinkI know what you're talking about. In the car settings that power/weight marker. I believe you can increase it with mileage points. I messed with that on a few cars, but I'm not sure how much of a difference it makes. I say max it out if you can. It seems to add more HP and reduce the weight of the car.
My PB here is like 1:42.2 but I am using a controller, I use to play sims like LFS and iR with a wheel, I am about to get a playseat and t300rs for GTS, hopefully hit 1:41 or so.
I am a lot slower when I am behind a group of people even if they are slower, I like to be a clean racer but I get divebombed a lot, hopefully as my SR raises I can avoid kamikaze drivers :D
In time you'll race with cleaner people. I try to advocate clean driving and I hope the word spreads around. Eventually you'll a more defensive approach to avoid those hits while driving online. A lot of it can be prevented.
Good recommendation. I'm not the best at that track, but I think I'm good enough for a guide. I'll look into! I want to keep doing the live racing examples. I feel they help the best.
Kevmyster - Lol, that's awesome. I'm glad I made it. A few people have asked. I tried to do the best I could. I feel like racing real people and explaining what I'm doing makes it easier to understand.
I don't know how I found you, but I'm glad I did. You are one of the most well spoken, well mannered, cool and collected people I've found on this site. And I absolutely *love* long videos, so your uploaded streams are right up my alley. I'd subscribe twice if I could, man.
I really appreciate it Emmanuel. Your reaction is why I do this kind of thing. Thanks a lot for your comment.

Z28Gaming saw the tuning and shaved 2 seconds in one attempt! I wanna know how to tune other cars/classes to handle this good!!
We'll get there!
WOW. Best GTS vid out there so far. Good work. Please more!
Thank toy flol!
Good video, its important to spread around the knowledge so the community as a whole gets better
Thanks OMC, I agree. I feel like it'll slowly make everyone a little better. My hope is that it attracts clean driving as well.
Thanks for this Bub.
I've been stuck at 1.55 but I can now see what I'm doing wrong.
More of these for the sport races each week please!
I think I need to do some more! Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much! As a beginner this information is extremely helpful. Already noticed about 3 to 4 things I was doing this wrong just trying to learn tracks on my own! Hope we see more videos like this. Ultimate beginner guide! 👍

Got yourself a new subscriber here, your intro graphics drew me in, your tips made me stay! Keep it up buddy!
Thanks for subscribing Stewart! I like to make the videos as enjoyable as I can. Thanks for watching ans subbing. I appreciate it.
Good stuff dude. Keep doing these types of videos!
It seems like everyone likes it. I'll have to start doing more of these.
Nice guide. The more I see you play this game the more I tell myself I need to buy it. It's like a more casual and fun version of iRacing.
Thanks Jordon. It's definitely much easier to play than iracing and not as much of a sim racer. However, i do find the game more entertaining.
Great video Z28. Wish I had found this earlier on in the week. Can get 1.43 but now I can see where to make the rest of the time up. Look forward to the next one ;)
Thanks, djezt1970! I definitely will be working on more. Thanks for watching!
Awesome. Picked up the game and found this wonderful guide. Thanks. Keep it up. u got my sub
Thanks Deric. I appreciate you subbing and watching. I'll do some more and I hope they help. (Side note) The tune i used is in the description.
Looking for a solid baseline Corvette C7. Also are the 4WD cars that much cleaner?
The C7 is actually pretty solid and a great car. It doesn't spin too much. I have a generic tune for it. At some point during a live stream, or a video I'll show the tune. Even stock the C7 is fun to drive. Try the viper as well. GR.3 and GR.4 are great cars.
Good job "Z", I've not run this one yet but will tomorrow and these tips will surely help a ton! Thanks again, I'm looking forward to the next!!
Thanks John! Good hearing from you.
I just found this, what a big help, i knew i was losing big time in a few corners. the guys near me in the races were slowing me down loads in parts of the race but equal//faster in some corners. first corner i was doing to slow and the other sweeping long one at the top of the bank. also losing time but not as much through the last 2 corners. i dropped from a 153/155 down to a 148/50 with practice. them long sweepers were killing my times. this going to help thanks
Thanks for the tip Z28 this really help me a lot by getting a faster time on this track! Sure appreciated!
No problem, thanks for watching.
Wow, I have so much to learn but subscribing to your channel will make things a lot easier. Great Video and thanks!!

Good idea, no problem.
Active Viewer By the way, I added the tune in the description!
Nice video man. My time in this track is a little high, and with your tips I think I can improve. Thank you so much
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Wow I thought I had this track nailed but after watching your rundown I can see where I need to work on a few areas! I also like the way you took the first hairpin wide but during a race I'm forced to block the inside or I get bumped off the track XD
I'm glad you enjoyed it man.
Nice race dude tanks for the tips I was able to take off a couple of seconds thanks you keep it up hope to see you on the track some day
Awesome! Will watch this in the morning! Will give my thoughts then bro!
Sounds good man. I thought doing a live race was a good idea.
your video really improve my driving in gt sport, i am not lying.
Thanks, I appreciate that. I'm in the process of making more of these.
please do guide for tokyo expressway, there seem like no cone for braking
and also Gr.B car, is hard to control.
Hey Z. Great video as always man but you would not want to have this 30 secs of long intro believe me.
You're right. I've had it for a while and planned on making a really short one. Maybe 5-7 seconds. I'm working on it.
You're so chilled while racing. haha. That's definitely something I need to improve upon.
Haha, thanks man. Yeah, you need to stay calm. I notice people get nervous a lot and that will really mess you up.
Good work my man! Thanks for the vid!!
Thanks Omar! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Great video - every little helps likes of me! Thanks man
No problem Daniel. Thanks for watching.
Very good indeed, i bought the game this weekend and played in this track yesterday. Keep the good work! I think that i got a Honda NSX and made 1.46 ....so i have to make so much better. well done!
Thank you! I appreciate your feedback.
Great video!
I appreciate it Beth!
Please do more in the future!
Thank you!
Thank you! I've gotten a pretty good response. It looks like I'll be making more of these!

very good video Z28 thank you, this track is perfect for learning.
You're welcome Peter. Thanks, I really appreciate it.
Great video. I play forza but can appreciate this Video. I'd love a good wheel. It's a game changer
Thanks Jonny. A wheel does make things much more fun. The lap times come with a little practice.
this video is so great man!! Thanks!! are you doing this kind of track explanation every week for the new ones?
I think I'm going to do at least one different track per week. Maybe two. It seems like the response is good, so i'll keep it up if you guys enjoy it. I have another one being posted by tonight.
awesome :) cant wait to see the new one! ill get the t300 rs gt very soon and im very happy i found your channel for some help :)
Thank you! I also appreciate you watching.
Great tips, u should make more of these 👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you, I'll definitely start working on it!
Hi Z. Saw your video yesterday first time and i absolutely love it. I was searching guides how to improove my lap time and things like that. Very nice video. Sorry for my english. Maybe you should talk how to tune car before going to circuit. One nore time very gratefull to you.
Thanks for watching! I added the Tune in the description.
Good video Z!
Thanks Salvador!
hey Z great guide and a 1:43 without trying ! best lve got so far is a 1:44, watching your turns were you talk about staying on 5th gear l cant hold 110/112mph without going wide, god knows how you keep that on the track i cant take it more than 100mph.
If you have any tips on tunes be great if you could share!
I added my tune in the description. I hope this helps!
Nice guide for improving skills and lap times for videp games.
I appreciate it. Thanks for watching.
Z28Gaming Thanks for your feedback.
No problem at all!
Z28Gaming I subscribed UA-cam channel, could you subscribe back my channel?
Black Friday im gonna buy a ps4, gt sport, and wheel. I'm definitely gonna add you on psn. Your streams partly got me excited for gt sport.
Sounds good, i'm glad to hear that!
I agree with this. The PS4 pro is the way to go. I'm happy with my purchase.
kraenk12 yea that's what i was thinking, i just hope they have some kind of discount for a pro. I know I'll get a wheel for like $100 off
Nice. $100 off is pretty sweet.
I'm driving an Evo in this race event and i feel like the GT-R Nismo is sooo much overpowered.
It does seem like that...But you can tune anything and make it pretty quick in this game.
I think i've raced you before! you really execute your turns generally well. I'm still trying to get the hang of manual.
Thank you, I appreciate that!
Thank you! you are a really good teacher.
I appreciate that nachoalmvideos. Thanks for watching.
Thanks dude! Was running 1:45s with the GT-R and wondering what I can do to improve. I think my problem is corner entry speed being too high on the hairpin turns. Thanks for sharing! Subscribed!
Thanks for subscribing Derangedteddy! I appreciate you and your time watching. I hope it all helps.
That's exactly what I need!Thanks a lot!
Its amazing how easy you made these fast laps, you didnt push hard since there was more space on track, right?.
Have you tuned your car?It seems to have a higher top speed you actually need on this track and I think lower it will make the car accelerate faster.
I'm using a controller and I'm 2 sec slower than you when I did everything right.I need to replay this for at least 5 times to check what makes me slow.
Really amazing work! want some more!
I didn't push the car too hard during the race to avoid mistakes. No reason to go as fast as possible If you're in the lead, stay calm and follow your line. You should push harder only when needed. I added the Tune in the description. Give it a shot!
Very good ! Thank you so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼
You're welcome!
hey man ur amazing and so is ur guide, i am still new to sport. the last grand turismo game i played was on ps2. but anyway do u have any beginner tips? btw what's ur personal fav car?
If you look under my popular uploads, I do have a beginner tip video. It's very basic and should help. Honestly, I think my favorite car in this game is the GT Citroen.
I was just looking for ones of these videos! I just need to figure out how to tune the Subie to keep up with the GTR. I might go back to the GTR we'll see. Thanks for the great upload! Do you have your GTR settings anywhere btw?
I added the tune settings in the description. I hope this helps!
Hey man, good video! I just have a question: what's your steering wheel? Thank you!
Fantastic!
Hey great video 👍🏼
I was just wondering what wheel do you use , and could you recommend some setting ie Togue , sensitivity setting for a g29 I use please
I'm using the T300rs with logitech G27 pedals. I only changed my wheel sensitivity in the advanced tab during gameplay. Both options are set to 4-4. I only did this because the torque was starting to leave marks on my hand. It doesn't make a difference where you change it. Whatever is comfortable for you.
Could you please make a tutorial for Kyoto driving park II?
I will add that to the list! The next one is Brands Hatch.
Great video, thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
Nice! Could you please do the same race with the Alfa Romeo (Gr4)
Do you have any "How to tune" video? TY.
When I buy that car and practice with it, i'll definitely give it a shot. I don't have any tuning videos yet, but I left the tune for the GTR in the description.
OK TY. 'PS: Where's the description? Sorry, I'm a little ...... :/ (missing link?)
Take a look right under the video. Their should be a button that says "show more." The tune will be in there.
Got it, TY.
I think is DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission) not CVT (Continuous Variable Transmission). Anyways i love the video.
Do more! Great job man!
I appreciate it! Thanks for watching.
My best time is only 1:45.500 but this may help me, do you change the engine settings at all? I normally just buy the car and go..
I added the tune settings in the description. I hope this helps!
Hey Z28, got any recommendations for transmission gear settings?
I do actually. On my next stream i'll show my transmission. But, if you want a good tune head over to GTPlanet forums. They have a bunch of tunes to choose from!
Great video, thanks for posting the tune, i'm going to try it. Can you tell us your overall thought on tuning? Like do you tune differently for diff tracks, do you tune specific gears, what tells you when you went too far? Do you do the work or is there a site you go to for recommended tuning?
The reason I ask is that I never really messed with individual tuning in games before but it's painfully obvious that I need to start.
Also, I noticed in your video you said that you can lose your tuning when going online. I actually thought that each car had to be tuned the same. Hearing its not the case makes me happy b/c I was getting deflated seeing times way faster than mine.
I personally don't like tuning. This week it looks like they disabled tuning for gt sport events. (which is great) But to answer your question. Yes, when tuning is available you have to have something different for each track. It's a lot of time. (Unless you're good at it)
Maybe I should learn to tune. I'm always too. Stubborn to do it but I bet I can get these times now.
Ran a mid 1:44 in a cayman GT4 doing some dangerous kerb railing on the two sweepers lol.
Haha, I know what you mean. I'm not a huge fan of tuning. I find generic stuff on GT Planet. It's very time consuming. Sometimes I wish all the cars were equal and it was more of a "driver to driver" race, but I understand that tuning is a part of racing,.
Agreed 100%. I've fallen into the trap of technique over everything, but there's only so much you can do (unfortunately). Although, pulling off some crazy Fujiwara style gutter turn will mess with peoples heads in a race hahaha.
Definitely subscribing even just for the lulz.
Thanks for Subscribing Parker. I appreciate you watching and I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
How highly would you recommend a steering wheel and pedals over a controller? Im thinkin of make a purchase on a wheel and pedals.which budget wheel/pedal combo would you recommend? Thanks
It depends how into the game you are.. The purchase could be more than your PS4. If you love racing games, then I would definitely get a wheel. If you're a casual racer, then i would say no. You can become just as fast on controller. (I know for a fact) If you decide to get a wheel, keep in mind you need a comfortable place to put it. I purchased a playseat from their website. Always think about where it's going to be. As far as the wheel, I recommend the T-GT, T300RS, or logitech G29. (In that order) If you're on a budget, the T150 is a good entry level wheel.Thanks for watching man. I hope this helps.
Z28Gaming thank you very much for your reply.i will think about it a bit longer....new sub here
Thank you for subbing ridler237. I really appreciate you watching. Definitely take your time. (Hint) Try to find a return policy and see how you like it. Not sure where you're from, but "Best Buy" does about 13 days or so.
Great video man. Its so much faster on manual, im using auto and my best is 1.44.900
I feel like manual is 100% necessary. Sometimes you need to shift up early to prevent tire spin.
Instant sub. My best time is a 1:45 so far, but I haven't bought a race wheel or anything yet; this guide will help.
Is there a reason almost everyone in that grid (and in a lot of the races I've been in) is using the GT-R?
Thanks, I appreciate it. I think the reason people use the GTR is because it's an easy all wheel drive GR.4 car. I wouldn't say it's the best, but definitely the easiest to get pretty consistent times.
Thanks for the quick response. Maybe I'll try it out and see if my times improve at all. I've been using the Atenza thus far.
That's a great car. I want to give that car another shot. It handles very well.
How can i drive alone without other cars?
Hi Z28 great vid, MY best on 458 is still on 1.46 ish on a controller, planning to switch to a wheel soon, any good recommendation ?
You can still manage getting very fast times with a controller. A of people do. I just don't want you thinking that you'll be immediately faster. Most people become slower at first. It takes practice. If you choose to try a wheel, opt for the T150 on a budget, or the T300RS-T-GT-Logotech G29. Those are all great wheels for this game.
i thought you can't tune your car for a sport mode race.
nice one man, what about the tunning of the car?
what is the settings ?
I've been getting 1:50 with mustang and I think it is because of the car configuration.
I added the tune settings in the description. I hope this helps!
It's really all about tuning. You can make any car extremely fast if you're knowledgable enough. The GTR (GR.4) is definitely one of the best "stock" cars.
Z28Gaming
I was surprised at how simulative GT-Sport actually is. And how well optimized it is for steering wheels.
In my opinion this is the first GT game where countering oversteer actually works properly. The downsides of GT-Sport is street cars on sports tyres feel floaty, to me. But im glad the race cars on slicks handle great. And the other issue i have is that there aren't enough tracks, (real ones). To me this is an online GT3 racing title. And thats okay. Im sure a lot of people will enjoy it for that.
Over all i think its an enjoyable racing game. Its much better than i expected. Its not Project cars 2 level of simulation, but its not arcade either. The Ferrari 458 GT3 at Autodromo de Interlagos is pretty awesome. Great car and track combo.
Im trying with a mustang, I can see I dont get to 240km like you here.
could be messing my car configurations.
what I'm already doing
Exactly. I think it's a fun game. Sure, its not a "true sim," but it captures a more fun aspect of racing in my eyes. I find PC2 to be a little boring.
great video what was your setup please
I added the Tune in the description.
Is a wheel and pedals quicker than a gamepad on GT Sport?
No, technically it's not. People think so, but i've played plenty of pad users who are just as fast. Practice is what makes you fast.
these are helpful. thank you.
You're very welcome SpawnoftheEd. Thank you for watching!
Nice video.
Can i use this tune in online racing? How?
And what setup for traction control and brake front/rear ?
Thanks (Giuliano from Brazil)
I've just purchased the 458 and currently only managing 1:52 1:51on one race lap 😥😀
The 458 is a hard car to drive and gets loose pretty easy without a tune. Try the GTR and i added the tune in the description. I'll be doing different cars in the future upon request.
Z28Gaming cool yeah I certainly found that out ha but I guess experience in a difficult car to drive should make for a better experience in the Gtr, I think it's just with being spoilt for choice when they're all 350,000cr, I decided to go with the Scooby then Rari 1st 😀
I've managed a 1:44 with the Ferrari, but it's not well suited for this track.
With the right tune, the Ferrari does good on this track. It really comes down to tuning and practice when you get past 1:42.
Z28Gaming yeah definitely only had a few hours on the game as only purchased it Friday and had to just use the two day free PlayStation live trial for now so I'm sure with more practice I'll be happy to get that 10 seconds off my time, I was expecting more tracks in sport mode but then wasn't sure if you get more to choose from when join other lobby races? 👍🏼 (:
What connector do you use for the Logitech pedals?
It's the Ricmotech adaptor.
Are you using a thrustmaster? If so, did you notice loss of torque or FFB over time ?
Yes, I'm using the T300. No, I've never notice a change in performance at all. Honestly, i'm really impressed with this wheel. I've had it for a long time. My next buy will be a fanatec CSL though.
Z28Gaming Have you had any reliability issues with the T300? Reviews said the G29 was more durable. I just bought the G29 last week and I still have a week left to return it. I can't return the Wheelstand pro within 30 days. What kind of pedals are you using? I realized that makes a more time difference that the Wheel itself. I sucked with the G29 for the first couple hours and now after 3 days I'm closing in on my top lap time with the controller now. Thanks man, I found your channel and subbed immediately and I'm sure the way I subbed your channel will also abd you'll grow pretty fast.
Thanks A Z. Sorry for the late response. I'm trying to catch up with all messages. I've had zero problems with my T300 and I've had it for a long time. I use the G27 pedals with my T300. The stock T300 pedals aren't very good. Also, the G29 is a great wheel. I would stick with that since you already bought it and the pedals are great. Thanks a lot for subbing and your feedback. I appreciate you watching.
Ant recommended tuning settings for the GTR?
I added the Tune in the description.
Good video!! The next video Suzuka please!
Later tonight Nurburgring GP will be uploaded and tomorrow i'm going to start working on Suzuka!
nice!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Hi Z28, now that setup work Rights i make 1.42.2. I love the Nissan, but on this track you really have to try the scirocco. Whit a good setup you can go under 42.
But, now that daly mission change, how e can see our lap record?? Byeee and nice video!!
Thank you! When the daily missions change, the leaderboard resets. So you won't be able to see your record anymore. (Until the track comes around again)
What's your wheel setup? Debating on what to get
Z28Gaming would you recommend it? It's a 300 on Amazon! Everywhere else is 400
I would definitely recommend what I have. No issues at all.
Hi, should I set anything on the quick tune?
If you check the description I listed my tune. I hope this helps!
Z28Gaming Thanks for replying, Yes I have seen that but the Quick tune just set to 100 - 100? or BoP or something else.
Oh, I thinkI know what you're talking about. In the car settings that power/weight marker. I believe you can increase it with mileage points. I messed with that on a few cars, but I'm not sure how much of a difference it makes. I say max it out if you can. It seems to add more HP and reduce the weight of the car.
Z28Gaming oh , thank you Z ✌️
How come your menus are in caps?
Lol, i'm not sure.
How did you start the race in first place?
At the thumbnail, it's *decrease* your laps times, not increase lol
Lmao, I need to change that.
I goofed on the thumbnail.
SO useful
Thanks randall!
Very nice lap. 1.44.2xx for me without setup. Thank for your setup. I ´ll try...
Enjoy and thanks for watching!
42"9 with your setup. Thanks
No problem!
Hi Z28 thank you your video can you please put the track conditions on next time please want to test it and Thank you
Sounds good Dawie.
My PB here is like 1:42.2 but I am using a controller, I use to play sims like LFS and iR with a wheel, I am about to get a playseat and t300rs for GTS, hopefully hit 1:41 or so.
You definitely can. Using a wheel is much different. At first you'll be a little slower, but over time it'll get better.
I am a lot slower when I am behind a group of people even if they are slower, I like to be a clean racer but I get divebombed a lot, hopefully as my SR raises I can avoid kamikaze drivers :D
In time you'll race with cleaner people. I try to advocate clean driving and I hope the word spreads around. Eventually you'll a more defensive approach to avoid those hits while driving online. A lot of it can be prevented.
Z, is your car tuned?
Yes, I just added my tune in the description. Hopefully this will help!
I guess the guy in the Nissan turned off the racing etiquette guide after in said no weaving.
Haha
This helps me a lot considering that im using an automatic instead of a manual :)
Can you possibly make a guide on Nurburgring GP? I feel like I can get a faster pace but im not familiar with the track.
Good recommendation. I'm not the best at that track, but I think I'm good enough for a guide. I'll look into! I want to keep doing the live racing examples. I feel they help the best.
Is there a huge difference between manual an auto in lap times?
Z28Gaming Yeah, i feel like its a way harder track than Kyoto or Dragon Trail. And the live examples are helping a lot :) i hope they stay
It looks like these guides will stay for a bit. I'm going to start working on some more. Thanks for your input!
I was just about to search up a video too lol
Kevmyster - Lol, that's awesome. I'm glad I made it. A few people have asked. I tried to do the best I could. I feel like racing real people and explaining what I'm doing makes it easier to understand.
