The GT Academy brought to you by Nissan and Sony will go live on June 2nd, allowing players to compete in a three-step tournament for two seats in the 2009 Dubai 24 hour race.
Starting next week, interested GT5 Prologue players have to register on gtacademy.eu with their Playstation ID. After registration, they’ll be able to race in the GT Academy time trial. The objective is to post a quick lap on the Eigner Nordwand circuit, using a Nissan Fairlady 350Z.
The 20 quickest drivers of each country will advance to step two, the national finals. The tree fastest drivers of each country will leave the virtual world and travel to Silverstone. This is were it gets real as drivers have to prove their driving abilities in a Nissan GT-R as well as complete a series of mental and physical tests.
After all is said and done, two drivers will remain and compete in a factory-backed Nissan 350Z at the 2009 Dubai 24h race. You think you have what it takes? Then sign up for the challenge on June 2nd…and send us a postcard from Dubai ????
