EuroGamer has published an extensive article covering this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, which had a strong Gran Turismo presence and was attended by Kazunori Yamauchi himself.

Making it to any GT Academy final is tough enough, but when you’re competing in the newest region of the annual competition with a billion countrymen, it’s a bit more special.

A new batch of A-Spec races are now available in Gran Turismo 6, featuring a series of new drift and time trial challenges exclusive to two-wheel drive non-racing European cars, rally cars, race cars, and the Mazda Roadster (MX-5).

While not the busiest weekend of the summer for the Nismo Athletes, there were still seven men and four cars doing their day jobs around Europe yesterday.

The live stream is now over; watch the replay above. Thanks to all who participated!

The all-new Track Maker (or “Course Maker”) has been one of the most highly anticipated features in Gran Turismo 6 since it was first officially announced back in November, but there’s been no word on its status since the game’s release.

Kazunori Yamauchi is the latest person to host a session of Reddit’s IAmA (I Am A, Ask me Anything), and is accompanied by Nissan’s chief designer, Shiro Nakamura, as both unveiled the Nissan 2020 Concept Vision Gran Turismo at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

Kazunori Yamauchi has made two interesting comments at the Goodwood Festival of Speed regarding one of the more controversial aspects of Gran Turismo: engine sounds.

Kazunori Yamauchi, who was present at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed where a number of new Vision GT cars were unveiled, spoke with Eurogamer about work being underway for Gran Turismo 7.

The Aston Martin DP-100 Vision GT concept car was fully revealed today at the 2014 Goodwood Festival of Speed. The DP-100 is a new creation from the Aston Martin design team exclusively for Gran Turismo 6. The virtual concept will be made available as a free download for GT6 some time this July.

With the revealing of the 2014 “Central Feature” at the Goodwood Festival of Speed today, the virtual course in Gran Turismo 6 was also updated to reflect the changes in real-time.

New screenshots and a development video have been released for Nissan’s Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo car, after its formal unveiling at the Goodwood Festival of Speed earlier today. The car is coming to GT6 in a free update next month.

Aston Martin is the latest Vision GT collaborator unveiling their design to the world and they’re doing it at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed. We have only seen a few shots of it so far, but this time we get to see it in motion; although it’s quite close up and teasing motion.

A new batch of A-Spec races are now available, ranging from a beginner’s challenge to that of an expert while overtaking as many opponents as possible within the allotted time.

Yesterday’s announcement of Gran Turismo’s partnership with the FIA has made shockwaves around the Internet and right here at home on GTPlanet, and now we have a few early details about the FIA Online Championship – the first virtual race event to be organized and sanctioned by the world’s governing body of motorsport.

Aston Martin is the latest manufacturer to get onto the Vision GT bandwagon, as this teaser image shows the Gaydon-based company’s input to the recent slew of Vision GT cars coming to Gran Turismo 6.

Nissan’s “CONCEPT 2020” Vision Gran Turismo project car – so radical in its design that it’s become a controversial point of debate in our community – will see its real-world debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed later this week (it’s coming to the game in July).

As confirmed in a major announcement from Polyphony Digital and the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA), Gran Turismo 6 has become the first-ever video game to feature FIA-certified content, with four of the game’s real-world tracks receiving approval from the governing body of world motorsport.
