Gran Turismo 7 - World Touring Car 900 - Suzuka Circuit Race & Strategy Guide - UPDATED 1.50

Welcome to my guide to winning the World Touring Car 900 Race around Suzuka Circuit on Gran Turismo 7.

THIS RACE WAS COMPLETED ON HARD DIFFICULTY

Car Used for this race: Honda NSX CONCEPT-GT ’16

Items I bought for this car from the Tuning Shop:
Racing Medium Tyres
Racing Soft

Adjustments I made in the Tuning Menu:
Downforce: Front - 750
Downforce: Rear - 1000

DRY CONDITIONS STRATEGY TLDR:
Start the race on Racing Medium Tyres, Pit on Lap 6 for Racing Soft Tyres and only put 4 laps of fuel. No fuel saving is required.
This race has a very low chance of rain so I will not be taking it into consideration for this guide.

This race is actually quite tough, the AI are very quick around this circuit, the only place you can make up time is on the back straight through 130R, with the medium and soft tyres you can be a lot faster than the AI through sector 1 as well.Try to stay consistent and mistake free, get through traffic quickly and cleanly, staying behind cars will cost a lot of time and cause you to have more tyre wear and dirty air will give you less downforce.

I have my Traction Control set to 0 but that’s personal preference, to stop the car from oversteering the lower gears you might want to put on some Traction Control or just get used to the car.

If you have any questions or are struggling with the strategy please comment below and I will do my best to help you.
