Before I get into the news lets take you back to November 15, 2010, the day this GT5 commercial was launched.

[ame=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRJlpWPyeDA]YouTube - GT Academy Announce Trailer[/ame]

If your wondering why that trailer looked so real theres an answer now.
That video you just watched is more of a commercial for the upcoming reality show, The Academy.

The Academy has been running in PAL territories for a while now, giving the best Gran Turismo 5 drivers the chance to earn a spot on a real racing team. Being the first time the event will be held for Americans, though, means it must naturally be bigger.

Starting March, film crews will be tracking the progress of each of the finalists in the competition, with the series being broadcast on the Speed Network later in 2011.

Long time Gran Turismo partner, Nissan, is the paying the money of the warrant for this to become a television series.
