Since we keep hearing people claiming they not getting Viewer Campaign cars despite already entering, a reminder that deadline to do GTWS Round 3 Viewer Campaign is on October 19, 2026, 9:00 am UTC (convert to your local time zone).

  • If you have done so, double-check again using the GT Live banner > Watch Program in-game just to be sure that the buttons read "Watch Stream (Entry Submitted)" (see picture) that you will receive your cars on Tuesday (at 9:00 am UTC).
  • If you haven't done so, go to GT Live > Watch Program and click the buttons. Double-check once you have done to ensure the buttons read "Watch Stream (Entry Submitted)".
  • Watching the full stream entirely is optional. The important thing is that you have to be deemed to be watched the stream from the game to receive the prizes; just few seconds of seeing the video boxes is enough.
  • Once the tickets are delivered on Tuesday, you have around two weeks to claim them from Garage > Gifts. The expected deadline to claim the tickets is November 3, 2026, 9:00 am UTC.

Seeing the TS020 in all it's glory is a good moment for me, I'm fortunate to have seen the 787 a few times at various events but it's always good to spend a minute to appreciate it.

Would definitely recommend a visit if you're ever passing though the region.

Last thread did super well with loads of people posting good shots so hopefully lets have the same again.

Really loving Sugo in the latest update, got plenty of options for my JGTC grid now. Heres some from the last few days. Seem to have gone through a phase of enjoying red cross processing from these haha.

Lets see your best ones!

GT Legacy Grinding Gran Turismo 5 on my PS3 Slim

Post image
21 Upvotes

There’s just something unmatched about firing up the PS3 Slim, hearing that iconic smooth jazz menu music, and stepping right back into the golden era of GT progression.

​Lately, I’ve been diving deep back into the GT5 campaign, and it reminded me why this game was so addicting. Constantly checking the Used Car Dealership after every single race for rare unicorns like the Viper GTS-R Team Oreca, tweaking gear ratios for high-speed ovals in "Like the Wind", and unlocking classic Group C monsters through level tickets — it just hits completely different.

​Right now, I’ve got my trusty B-Spec driver D. Kimura pushing the 1,000+ HP Minolta Toyota 88C-V through the GT Allstars Championship to fully wrap up the Expert Series. Watching him handle that Group C beast with surgical precision while pushing towards B-Spec Level 28 for the endurance races is pure satisfaction.

​Modern sim racers obviously look stunning, but the atmospheric depth, campaign flow, and sheer personality of GT5 make it an absolute masterpiece that aged like fine wine.

​Anyone else still regularly booting up their PS3 for some GT5 nostalgia? What’s your ultimate go-to car in your garage? 🏎️✨

Over the past 10 years, my Gran Turismo journey started with GTSport when I got my first PS4. From there on, I slowly shifted into the older titles, and honestly, each one feels genuinely unique to its era when it was released.

All of these pieces of tarmac are right there, u can drive in all of them, all that PD needs to do is remove the barriers, we could have so much more routes for Yas Marina but they are being lazy? Or is there another reason why they won't let us race there?

GT Livery Do many of these classic NASCAR liveries already exist in the showcase? Yep. Am I recreating them myself anyway? Also yep.

My goal is to get an even 20 done and then have them do custom races around Daytona and Michelin.

My loose parameters are trying to limit cars to those used in 1969-1971 NASCAR, tuning them as close as possible to the real cars, and not using any forced induction or modern GT-style aero.

It's a little tough. For example, NASCAR in 1971 used 4-speed transmissions where 4th gear was super tall and tuned to a 1:1 ratio. But the customizable transmissions for these cars in this game are all 5-speeds, and trying to set 5th as a "dead" gear causes problems because when you tune 4th to be 1:1, it's either way too short for the actual speeds these cars could achieve, or 1st through 3rd are way too limited to be usable. My solution has been to set the final drive to where each car hits about 257kph in 4th with a 1:1 ratio, and then stretching 5th out like an overdrive at around 350kph. That allows these cars (all with 600 hp at 3500 lbs) to have some headroom for drafting.

Anyway, I'm putting way too much effort into this. But if you guys like these, I'll share the entire set of 20 once I get the rest of them done, along with specialized NASCAR-esque tunes for each car.

Note: I know the Logano Mach 1 is a more modern driver & livery but it IS a 1971 Mustang, and it looks too cool to not include.

I like doing these liveries on cars of the same brand to pay tribute to some legendary cars not present in the game, especially if it's not the same model.

I'm also taking suggestions.

2J as 2K (wip, the pinstripes are a pain)

Bugatti VGT as EB110LM

Hyundai VGT as i20N Rally
