Welcome to my Race Strategy Guide for Daily Race C 3/4/23 around Watkins Glen- on Gran Turismo 7

This Daily Race features Gr.3 cars around Watkins Glen Long with Racing Hard Tyres Only.

BOP - ON
Laps - 12
Tyres - X6
Fuel - X2

The car I will be using for this race: McLaren 650S GT3 ’15

Cars that I tested:
McLaren 650S GT3 ’15BMW M6 GT3 Sprint Model ’16
Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3 ’18
Mercedes-AMG GT3 ’16
Toyota GR Supra Racing Concept ’18

STRATEGY: No Pit Stops required, Racing Hard Tyres are the only option for tyres and you won’t need to save fuel. Tyre Management is crucial, don’t let the car slide around to much, aim for consistent decent lap times and don’t go all out going for fastest laps every lap, your tyres will burn out too quickly.

Try to be as smooth and consistent as you can, this will be they key to a good result in this Daily Race.

After testing multiple cars I found the McLaren 650S to be the most consistent and very good at tyre management, it had very nice flow through the medium and high speed corners which is crucial around this circuit.

Its very easy to get corner cutting penalties by running wide in Turn 1, 8, 11, and 13, so be careful of those corners.

I did a custom race with the same settings as the Daily Race for testing reasons and to get a clean race without being hit off.

I have the Traction Control set to level 0 for this Video but that’s personal preference and you can choose whatever setting you want, although having it set higher will cost you time so its worth getting used to a low level of Traction Control or turning it off all together would be even better.

I also show my steering and pedal inputs via a couple of cameras to show my inputs if that interests you.
