GT Academy 2010, the reality series coming to C4
Calling all car and gaming enthusiasts - GT Academy 2010, the reality series is coming to C4!
GT Academy takes the world’s fastest Gran Turismo virtual racers (including the Kiwi speedster Tony Autridge from Wellington) from 17 countries on the PlayStation 3 and put them to the test with real-world motorsports stars such as Eddie Jordan and Johnnie Herbert.
Watch the contestants hone their driving skills and go through a demanding 5-day boot-camp: where they are mentally and physical tested to see if they had what it takes to succeed in the racing world.
Follow the grueling journey of Gran Turismo hopefuls competing for a once in a lifetime opportunity to become a real racing driver with GT Academy 2010.
Gran Turismo 5 for the PlaySation 3 will be launching soon, so you can see how you match up against the world’s best virtual racers.
