This was because of your SR, that's why you could see the drop.

Thank you, it's back nowsuch a difficult car to drive this, even with force feedback settings turned right up, I really struggle to know what the car is doing mid-corner.
Trail-braking just creates oversteer but how do you control it?
I managed a 2:10.8 but the only corner I can do consistency is corner 1
Thr number of times I've spun out on a decent lap :O

I'm over 50 now, I started playing gt7 late in 2025 after two decades away from games and I hadn't touched a Gran Turismo game since GT3.
My average delta is +1.5%, I can get into the top 3-400 on some circuits but I gave up on daily races after experiencing too many childish idiots.
As you get older I think your reactions are the same, but your ability to learn is definitely slower than it was.
Keep practicing, learn the tracks and use circuit challenge to really improve those laps times.
Send me a friend request if you like, I save all the laps I'm half decent on :-)

Fanatec has confirmed which products are in its Black Friday 2026 sale, and for once the two pieces of gear I race on every week made the list: the ClubSport DD+ wheel base and the ClubSport Formula V3 wheel. Prices are still under wraps, so this
Gonna talk about the quali. I know its a popular combo + on SOFTS but its so freaking competitive i never thought A 1:16.7 (Dualshock 4) is gonna put be in top 400 by the end of the week. Its not bad and yes i might sound spoiled i just expected it to be higher. Props to all the guys that managed to do 16 low's a laptime like that takes so much sweat to improve and honestly i dont think im gonna improve it by sunday.
I spent about 500 hours in gt7 using a controller and the braking zone assist the entire time. I was usually 3-5% off pace and held a B rank with about 14k DR. Over 400 sport mode races.
When I switched to a G923 wheel, I finally turned off the braking zone assist and am learning my brake points. I'm about 40 hours/15 or 20 online races into this setup. My pace dropped to +10% immediately, but in time trials I'm getting closer to 5-8% again. Still a lot of room for improvement.
In sport mode, though, I am dropping like a rock into C rank. I lose the car far more often into full spins than before, and am just not competitive. I knew the changes would be a challenge, but I did not expect it to be so severe. The ranks are just numbers but it's discouraging to be so incompetent. I also don't want to ruin other people's races by being wild, but I need to practice where real people are.
Anyone have tips for getting back on track after moving from a controller to a wheel, or after removing a braking assist? I am way more lost than I expected to be!
You can try joining a rookie league, race with others also learning. That and keep practicing with TT's and offline races experimenting with braking and steering input. Learning the thresholds is really the only way to progress. The wheel/pedal setup removes natural assists provided to controller play, so input smoothness becomes far more critical.
