Gran Turismo 6 and Toyota are bringing out the next generation of racing simulators, enabling you to bring real track action right on your gaming console.
Developed by Toyota, Polyphony Digital and Denso, the GPS Visualizer option you get in the new racing game allows you to bring everything you do on a track in real life to the Gran Turismo 6 environment.

A special device connects to your Toyota GT 86/Scion FR-S’ ECU and logs items like speed, telemetry, gear, rpm and lap time. Then you download the data on a USB stick and shove it in the game, where the run will accurately be recreated.

Toyota and Sony Computer Entertainment America along with GT6 development members invited the guys over from Super Street to test out the new feature at Willow Springs Raceway in Rosamond, CA. Check it all out in the video bellow.
