Hi Everyone,

For a long period of my life, I've played Gran Turismo. From the first to the latest, it's given me enjoyment, and also the opportunity at my dream career of becoming a racing driver. This video is to celebrate the past 15 years of Gran Turismo, and also to the future of Gran Turismo and hopefully another 15 more years!! This video represents those years with footage from all 5 of the playstation console gran turismos!

My best memories?

One of my best memories was my first memory, my first ever game, on my first ever console! GT1 on the PS1! I was playing it on such an old TV I never had a static image, it in fact kept rolling, until fortunately I got a new TV a few days later!! Why did I get it ? My Mum & Nan got so bored of me saying I was bored they decided to get it me, and how glad I am they did? 
 
From there, I've had so much fun, so much time spent on the game/franchise but all well worth it! It's helped me with driving in real life, and helped my understanding substantially, and who knows, maybe I can obtain a race seat this year from the best opportunity there is, GT Academy!!
 
Personally that's also a huge memory of mine, the national finals, like minded racers all there for one goal, and it's a huge part of GT, and one I truely support on an epic scale, I tell everyone, friends, family, colleagues all about the competition, because to me the fact that it presents people like me an opportunity at the chance of a dream, at something that I wouldn't have had a chance at otherwise, is fantastic!
 
I also can't forget the Redbull x2010 challenge. A Challenge you say? Well if you weren't aware I was as far as anybody is aware? The only person to achieve this before controller sensitivity patch on a DS3! In fact I believe the challenge was the biggest contributor to the Controller sensitivity due to the problem of why it was so difficult, something I called 'Pad Lag'. Anyway It took time, alot of time... Must have been over 2 months, of constant attempts, pressing that start button, seeing those tenths drop, but that final moment on Suzuka getting that 2:09.xxx was probably one of the biggest sense of achievement I've ever had! Sad? Yes maybe? But my housemate heard me, and knew what had happened, I literally nearly hit the ceiling with the thrill of achievement from it!!
 
So I thankyou Gran Turismo... PD... Sony... For an excellent and huge part of 15 years of my life, and lets hope for 15 more great years!
