You have true racing car drivers showing their skills in real live and you have those doing a similar job in the virtual world. You also have people performing both.
The video below shows a guy named Denis Malevanyi driving the Nürburgring Nordschleife within Gran Turismo 5 – the brand new racing game – and as a real driver in his personal sports car. In both situations he used the same car, a BMW E92 M3.
Nice compilation… when you see just sim you think it’s great, but when comparing to reality… LOL. They have to improove steering wheel response when cornering :)… no insects at the windscreen… and the track surface is still too good to be real. But you can see it only in such competition…
