Real life Gran Turismo!

Post by inkey$ » Wed May 18, 2011 10:50 pm

This is nuts - in a good way. Love the Japanese attitude towards cars and racing. Found on PH and check out the amazing start by the GTR.

As far as we're concerned, this is the way to do motoring journalism. Forget your in-depth comparisons, your extensive spec sheets, your colourful magazine features or your slickly presented internet videos.

Why? Because all you really need to do is find a decent track (say for argument Fuji Speedway), equip a Lexus LFA, a Nissan GT-R, a Corvette ZR1, a 911 GT2 RS and a Ferrari 430 Scuderia RSD with a camera and some handy drivers, and give 'em three laps to get on with things. It's like a real life version of Gran Turismo. Brilliant.

Great video! I love the way the GT-R driver had some lock applied at the start in anticipation of destroying the car ahead of him.
Z4M Coupe - Imola Red 2006 sold. What next?
