Gran Turismo Academy: if virtual cars just aren't enough

As realistic as cars in Gran Turismo 5: Prologue are, there's no substitute for the real thing. If you want the real deal instead of virtual cars on your screen, here's your chance with the Gran Turismo Academy, which has just gone live!

In GT Academy, you'll go against fellow Gran Turismo gamers in an online tournament that will run for seven weeks. Twenty winners will be further tested in the finals, and the fastest three among them will be invited to Silverstone, for the real thing.

In Silverstone, the three lucky fellows will race against each other in real cars, in a real track, in a real Nissan GT-R. Two winners will go on to enter a four-month training program to get racing licenses, to participate in a real life race in Dubai.

The contest is open to residents in UK & Ireland, France, Italy, Spain, Germany & Austria, Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark. Chance of a lifetime, people. Time to get it into gear. Follow the link below to enter. Good luck!
