    Hallo Kazunori Yamauchi

    Ich bin ein großer Fan ihrer Gran Turismo Reihe,ich fahre seit es Gran Turismo gibt Rennen.
    Ich habe in allen Teilen ihrer Serie,alles in Gold gefahren.Ob Rennen oder Prüfung.Auf Ehrlichen Wege eine Silber konnte ich nie akzeptieren.Mein Motto ist Gold, nur so macht das Spiel wirklich Spaß.Ich frage mich heute noch,wie es Möglich war so ein schönes Spiel herzustellen.Und freue mich sehr das sie so viel Erfolg damit haben.
    Ich würde mich sehr freuen, bei einer Rennveranstaltung mein Können unter Beweiß zustellen.
    Ich würde mich über eine Einladung sehr freuen.
    Und wünsche Ihnen und ihrem Team noch sehr viel Erfolg mit Gran Turismo.

    Mit freundlichen Grüßen
