Demo Gran Turismo 5, and make your way into the 2010 GT Academy

Yep, this is the real thing. You can finally get your hands on probably the most anticipated driving simulator of all time, Gran Turismo 5, and also find it as the starting point for getting into the 2010 GT Academy and become a real-life race car driver.

Gran Turismo 5 time trial on December 17 and try to beat the clock. Your best time will be uploaded to a national leaderboard – and you can keep improving it, again and again, until the demo is taken down in late January. When that happens, the 20 fastest drivers will be invited to a national final, where they’ll race head-to-head on Gran Turismo 5 and undergo a series of aptitude tests. From there, the winners will be taken to Silverstone, where they’ll get behind the wheel of a Nissan 370Z for real as part of 2010’s GT Academy.
