Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.11 Brings Sweeping Game Economy Changes
Gran Turismo 7 v1.11 has just been released. In keeping with Kazunori Yamauchi’s statement to fans last month, this is the first of many upgrades that will bring significant improvements to the game’s economy, most notably the ease with which players may acquire in-game cash.

Even though it doesn’t include any new vehicles or tracks, the update’s 917.2MB (or 1.08GB) download size on PlayStation 5 (or 1.08GB on PS4) isn’t excessive. However, new races, new goals, and enhanced awards for Circuit Experience and several of the lengthier World Circuits races, some of which have virtually double payouts, have been added to the game in this update.
Three new races have been added to World Circuits: the Tokyo Expressway World Touring Car 600, the Le Mans World Touring Car 700, and the Sardegna Road World Touring Car 800.

Even though it takes over 40 minutes to complete, the Le Mans race is the most lucrative repeating event in the game, paying out 550,000cr to the winner (rising to 825,000cr with a Clean Race Bonus).
However, despite our lack of complete survey of other races’ prize money adjustments, it is evident that the races players acquire access to in Menu Book 31, or later, have seen significant modifications, while previous events remain unchanged.
Rewards for Porsche Cup, Ferrari Challenge, Nissan GT R Cup, Schwarzwald League, World Rally Challenge and Race of Turbo Sportscars events have all increased by around a half. In contrast to the three WTC600/700/800 championships, the number of individual WTC600/700/800 events has more than doubled.
While the prize money for each sector of the circuit has remained the same, there are now substantial benefits for completing an Experience on a certain track.

You’ll now get a bonus if you pass every sector and complete the whole lap in bronze, as well as an extra bonus if you achieve gold on all tests.
Each track has a different price range depending on its length and intricacy, with bronze and gold at Northern Isle Speedway costing between 20,000cr (Bronze) and 100,000cr (Gold).
You won’t be left out if you’ve previously finished a track’s Circuit Experience. You’ll get any bonuses you’re entitled for if you click through to the sector overview menu and then exit.

Lobby and Daily Race events have also seen prize money rise. You might easily lose out on a significant amount of credit by hitting the 20,000,000cr ceiling with all the new awards. Now at 100,000,000cr, you’re less likely to accidentally max out your account.
Polyphony Digital says that the modifications to vehicle physics relating leaps apply “primarily on dirt courses,” which will be recognisable to gamers who have been grinding the Fishermans Ranch and Sardegna Windmills races. Anti-lag systems have also seen a shift, with their on/off activation being replaced with off/weak/strong activation.
For ease of use, the Car Collection screen now has new menu buttons. Additionally, in replays, just the cancel and confirm buttons are used to bring up the control panel.

In addition, the appearance of smoke in windows and pictures has been tweaked, and BOP is now available in Custom Races. Various vehicles have had their liveries and custom items presented differently, and a glitch with the settings sheet has been fixed.
The entire collection of patch notes may be seen in the comments section.
There are more upgrades planned for this month, as well as “next-term” plans to extend the game and include the option to sell cars, so stay tuned.
