American Idol for Cars!!

http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...ticleId=126567


Just discovered this article. If you have a ps3 and grand turismo you have the chance to race a real gtr and 350z. Its pretty insane if you thing about it. You can go from your basement playing a game to months of training and become a real racer playing with the new gtr.
I have the ps3 but no grand turismo. Maybe its time to buy it and practice.

I bet some 12 year old kid wins and can't even drive a real car.

The Top Gear episode where Clarkson tries to drive Laguna Seca after trying to learn the course on his playstation comes to mind. Good game driver != good driver.

Crap a rear wheel drive car on that track... Time to start practicing. I was like top 10 a long time ago for a couple of tracks and cars, but have since then been playing gtaIV. Top 20 for every country shouldn't be too hard.

Edit: nm it's only for Europeans damnit...
