Every time accomplished race drivers try a racing game it’s definitely worth a story, especially if it’s a real racing legend. The video below shows Hurley Haywood driving Need for Speed Shift as part of a “Game with Fame” event where gamers get to chance to play against celebrities on Xbox LIVE.
Haywood is one of the world’s most successful sports car racers, winning the Le Mans 24 Hours three times and being a Daytona 24 Hours record winner with five overall victories. Haywood was closely associated with Brumos Racing and Porsche, spending the majority of his career driving Weissach-built machinery. Today, he’s Chief Driving Instructor at the Porsche Sports Driving School in Birmingham, Alabama.
