Get ready to rev up your engines because a new set of Gran Turismo 7 Weekly Challenges just rolled into town! These challenges are showing off the shiny new toys from the recent 1.56 update, so buckle up and let the racing antics begin!


Weekly Challenges are like a wild ride through the World Circuits menu, featuring five events that are handpicked just for you, plus a "Special Event" that's whipped up fresh each week. If you can steer your way to third place or better in these races before the week is up, you'll score some bonus loot. And guess what? The more events you conquer, the bigger your prize pile grows!


This week starts with some races that pay about as much as finding loose change in your couch cushions, kicking off with the American FR Challenge 550 at Blue Moon Bay Speedway. Win here, and you’ll pocket a whopping 10,000cr—enough to buy a few extra snacks, maybe. This track is like that one friend who never gets invited to parties, rarely making an appearance in events. It's a tri-oval hosting a three-lap showdown for American front-engined, rear-wheel drive road cars. The "550" is just a suggestion for Performance Points (PP) to keep things interesting, not a restriction, so no need to sweat it!


For the epic marathon known as the Japanese 4WD Challenge 600 at Kyoto Driving Park Yamagiwa, you can snag a cool 20,000cr if you manage to snag first place. It's like finding a treasure chest at the end of a three-lap quest! But beware, only all-wheel drive roadsters or those fancy "tuned" rides (think NISMO) from Japan can join this party. And while a 600PP is suggested, it's not like they'll kick you out for bringing a little extra horsepower to the shindig!


Get ready for a turbocharged thrill ride as excitement revs up a notch for this week's one-make Special Event, featuring the shiny new BMW Z4 3.0i! The only rule? Drive the Z4. Everything else is fair game, so go wild with your customizations. It's a four-lap showdown at the Tokyo Expressway's South Clockwise course, where the winner snags a cool 70,000cr. Buckle up and may the best Z4 win!


Usually, the World Touring Car 800 events are like hitting the jackpot, but this week they're more like, again, finding loose change under your couch cushions. Conquering this ten-lap showdown at Dragon Trail Seaside Reverse (complete with the infamous Hairpin of Many Incorrect Lines) will still snag you a cool 140,000 credits. Feel free to roll up in any car up to the 800PP limit with racing tires. The regulars are Gr.3 cars, but hey, if you want to bring a beast of a vehicle and show off, go right ahead!


Get ready to rev your engines at the Neo-Classic Challenge at Fuji Speedway, where the stakes are as high as a giraffe on stilts with another six-figure race! These races are like a rollercoaster ride with iconic cars from the '80s and '90s, capped at 800PP and demanding racing tires. With tire wear faster than a cheetah on a sugar rush, relying on soft tires to hit the PP limit is like trying to win a marathon in flip-flops. Conquer the ten-lap showdown, and you'll drive away with a cool 168,000 credits in your pocket!


This week's bonuses are like a surprise party in a box! Complete any event, and you'll snag the hilariously unpredictable Six-Star Parts ticket. It's like a mystery gift that could contain any "Ultimate" part for any car in the game — and guess what? You can't sell these parts, so they're yours forever unless you put them to use. Finish any three events, and you’ll score a 150,000cr ticket waiting for you in the Gifts section of your Garage. Go ahead, claim your prize and feel like a millionaire!


At last, there's a Six-Star Car ticket, which is like getting a golden ticket to snatch any Brand Central car worth 500,000cr or more (yes, even those exclusive Invitation cars) when you finish collecting the fabulous five. It's like the Willy Wonka of car prizes!
