Here’s an HD video from last year’s Tokyo Motor Show which apparently slipped under the radar. Yes, the driving is terrible, but the 1080p video quality (which you can select from the menu in the bottom right corner of the video player) provides a great impression of the lighting and environmental details around the track. Thanks to CoolColJ for digging this up!
See more articles on Tokyo Motor Show, Tokyo R246, and video.
I wonder if gtplanet sends these guys out to drive horribly, just so we can see more details on the track.
Perhaps he is an advanced driver after all – check out 1:48 – 1:54.
Is he trying to pull off the scandanavian flick?
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sweet mother of god! I can’t stop watching this video. I love the way he furiously wrenches the wheel from left to right, with no apparent connection between his violent and baffling steering inputs and the car’s on screen reaction.
For the love of god! Don’t give this guy a license!
Hilarity!
I want to put my kids in that dudes car
I want to slap the ”driver” upside the head with a raw steak.
These fella’s keep getting worse.
0:50 LOL WTF
Toyota, Tokyo. I don’t get it; why did you posted this?(??) We all already know both ”news”.

it’s a Toyota so I bet his gas pedal is stuck…”
LOL. Best comment so far
Acutaully as an addendum to my above post it would be nice to see a timed demo or a 3 lap demo with 3 or 4 drivable cars around Tokyo released from Polyphony to keep us busy nd happy until the big release day. Come on Polyphony…. make it happen!!!!
Very good video.
Very very very very bad driving!!!
The thing about the tyres flying thats old news and has been known for some months (where have you been) Its been noted on several TGS videos. If you look on various corners of Tokyo you will see the red and white blocks (usually filled with water in the real world) if these are hit they get thrown around the track as well as the Polyphony “blocks” at the end of the Corner which leads onto the finishing striaght 2:28 – 2:32.
Have any of you managed to hit the 150, 100 & 50 (meter marker blocks) on the indianapolis track yet? All though the tyre barrier marking the entry into the first righ hand corner is a car bouncer……. in other words its solid and makes your car bounce off it…. go ahead try it for fun….. 16 cars and flying bits on a race track…. mayhem…. its gonna happen I tell ya….

Painful to watch. Force feedback doesn’t seem to be very high though. Judging from the drivers’ watch and the wedding ring the driving must be quite wealthy ;). Used to real cars perhaps?
Well in the Prologue you were able to change the force feedback settings. I think this driver doesn’t know anything about those settings or it’s not available in a demo like this… Like there’s said in the interviews the force feedback has improved. You feel every bump on the track! ;) (Or that’s what they say…)

“Thanks fore the vid but this kid or who ever is having a hard time. I’m sad my DFP from 2005 just died…..”
I got the Red blinking light of death yesterday, so naturally I’m expecting a release date any day now!
My gosh.. My 10 year old niece plays Gran Turismo 4 with me and she can drive better than that using the dualshock controller!
haha he’s the worst driver in the world, the track looks excellent though.

I think the guy couldn’t find the brake-pedal…. Terribe driving. :P I want to see some more circuits and cars. Show us some Le Mans or DTM!! :) I want it NOW!!! :D
“At 50 seconds! Wth??? Surely the released game won’t be like this.”
But some of the drivers will be like this :p
At 50 seconds! Wth??? Surely the released game won’t be like this.
I mean concentrate “on” quality videos
I can find no reason to post those videos. wee´ve seen a lot of crap driving videos, especially on Tokio. So you should concentrate and quality videos.
Thanks Jordan for trying to give us anything new. I mean when the hell are PD going to release any new info, screens or videos? I guess E3. Sad, really sad.
Looks Great … the game not the driving
but how long will it take until release ??? can’t wait anymore …
crazy kid played too much initial D, feet off the throttle and brake… at least for once please…
If that guy drove in america, the police would call a swat team.
The game looks amazing! :P
When people go commenting on the little details, I would have thought they would do so in context (i.e. this being a TGS 2009 build, itself 4 months old, and the build even older).
What I’ve noticed: They’re never showing a Japanese pit-crew, even if the car or the team is Japanese. Strange
I agree that he isnt the best driver but I think the physics look a bit floaty. Granted I havent driven on a racetrack, but I do drive 40,000 miles a year for my job and I have had some pretty powerfull RWD cars.
I wouldnt expect the back to just step out on a dry track when I am essentially driving in a straight line. I know Pro physics need to be realistic but making it seem like the track is covered in oil is just making the game hard for the sake of it.
good this is an old build ’cause bumping of the wall like that and continuing is lame.
(escudo + tokyo = railway)
The grey car jumping was not very realistic. it should have been pushed back when against the wall (sidewalk) and not go up up in the air
My bad I meant the first time he hits the grey car and it spins.
The grey car dosn’t disappear, it just lands well and makes a good recovery lol. He was looking at the wall for a while after the crash so you can’t see it but look at the radar, grey car is still there. I don’t agree with the flying car as a bug either, I’m thinking its improved collision physics… If that crash was made a reality, no one would think the grey car going airborne would be strange, It just looks wierd because its still in one piece after a very violent impact. If your still not convinced that improved physics are at play, look how easy the first car he tags spins out.
Nice graphics but im wondering why they cant get the sense of speed right. Doing 100 km/h sure feels alittle faster than it seems in the video.
great vid.bad driving. ,btw is there an official japanese launch date yet?
Lol yeah Mike, true. I was rolling when he first got out of the pits… You could tell from his reaction he knew he was in trouble right away haha.
yea this guy is a disgrace. tokyo looks nice tho, looking forward to doing some online racing at this track.
I’m actually glad that the driving was atrocious- because of that we’re getting an almost 360 view of the track and in places where he’s hitting the wall, a closer and better look at the environment :)
The driving is so bad its annoyingly bad, which is hard to do
Where does that car go at 40 seconds? It looks like it flies right up and off the screen and then seems to have dissapeared…
Yes. This video highlights the lighting quite well.
Yes. This video showcases the environmental detail.
But man. That guy look nervous. Hate to see behind a wheel of a real car..
that guy was driver in to the wall over 160km hay hour you should not be able to drive it anyone because it will be damaged hard
A car flew! ?(0:49～) lol
That flying car… huge bug!
Wow, somebody who drives worse than me! lol. Got to get him into some races to make me look good. Seriously, appreciate the info update.
Enyone noticet or thats just my imagination. When he hit the wall at the end of straight in the beginn of second lap blurr coms on screen like in Need for speed SHIFT??
Man, The more awesome this game looks, the more awful the little details stand out. I will go with , for the game’s sake, that this is a pre-damage build or damage off… Seeing that the AI car didnt receive any really is a sore sight @ this point. Everytime this guy crashed… which he was doing A LOT, practically the same animation occured crash head on and the car does a side to side weight shift? Also, wth happened with the physics.. true that he never let off the gas but… it felt like he was in drift mode in Underground 2. This HAS TO BE an old build cuz damn…
Collisions look very dodgy, he just pushes another car along the track then one jumps and flies off into nowhere, I hope GT5 isn’t like this.
it’s a Toyota so I bet his gas pedal is stuck…
Whahahaha, that car in the beginning…. Boom, and…… Gone he is…. ?????
Look at how jagged the shadows cast by the buildings and trees are!
Shadows have never looked this jagged on GT5 Prologue, so I can conclude one of two things: this build still has a lo res shadow map, or all shadows are now being calculated real time.
I highly doubt Polyphony would not take the time to render a hi res shadow map as potentially it would be part of the track creation process.
So, I’m going to conclude that this is the first real evidence I’ve seen of a day / night cycle!
Woo hoo, made my day CoolCol, thanks!
Wow……the bad driving aside, thats one of the first GT5 videos that almost looks real. This is beyond scary. I just watched that video like 5 times and there are points when driving into the sun that this game looks real. Amazing.
anyone else realize that gt5 can possibly be released next month?? (yeh, btw i saw the other post about the fall 2010)
still no damage to see how it affects driving…
or was the car already damaged in the beginning?
someone fix the aspect ratio, how can you ‘enjoy’ HD with such a stretched view?
Cool video but terrible driver. Did anyone notice the grey FT-86 lift up from the ground and fly away when it was hit? I was laughing so hard when I saw that.
I blame his bad driving on the people who were walking infront of him :D
– yes I know they were walking infront of the camera !
LOL. Why does everyone try to steer the car when they are in the pits?????, man this guy is such a bad driver.
at around 0:48 , look at the grey one xD
Oh…games look great though as always!
You cracked me up @obi_one :)
And @Jordan no wonder this video slipt under the radar,
people were too ashamed to show it to anyone else.
Anyway thanks for finding it, i love this circuit!!
An other absolutely useless driver! Fantastic news about the best driving game! I think i had met this guy in online last evening. Pinball wizard!
watching it again maybe he thought he stepped into Ridge Racer 8?
Video Great – driving terrible, Give him a chance though, It may be his first time. :)
@Peewee,
I’ve always wondered myself why it’s called bumper cam, as on GT5P also, the camera is roughly the same level as the drivers head would be.
Nice vid…atrocious driving!!
Ha where did the grey car go at 50:00 seconds in? LOL it still shows bad driving and bumping off walls wont screw up your car. That sucks
the car jump in this video… amazing!!!!!!!!!!
I just enjoyed watching his first 60 seconds of driving. He has got to be the best of the worst of the bunch of drivers that has shown their skill here on gtplanet. Overall I enjoyed seeing this guy drive even if there is a worldwide recall of Toyotas. Brilliant driver just because of his sheer willingness to never let go of the throttle!
I was so embarassed to watch him that I stoped watching it at all.
Yea that was pretty awful driving…hit the barrier at 190kph. But……..did anyone else notice the flying tires??
Bumpercam????? Look at how high the cam is during the pit scene, more like on the bonnet cam. Looks good…..
well maybe that toyota didn’t go for the recall yet and he just cant break :)
In spectacular stretch-o-vision
Let’s see the bright side: He would be a great damage implementation tester
Yeah, you can see from the HUD at the bottom that he’s pretty much the gas all the time. Even when he’s up against the wall, he’s still flooring it. It’s amazing how bad some people can be. I know not everyone is gonna be an expert, but the basics of braking for a turn should be in everyone’s head.
Anyway, the game looks really good, shame we didn’t see the way it would be driven by a real racer.
like how the tires fly away if you hit them at 3.05, hope they are going to do that for all the tires
Bad driving…wow no kidding.
That guy shouldn’t be allowed on the road!
he never brakes!
I wish I could be driving that, even if I was that bad, lol.
terrible driving! that’s mildly spoken Jordan!!
I’m getting on my knees for GT5, after this video I’m still on my knees!!:O:O
Thanks fore the vid but this kid or who ever is having a hard time. I’m sad my DFP from 2005 just died…..
Bad camera angle and bad driving. But right now I will take any info on gt. It’s more than we get from PD.
Thanks Jordan
