Default Driving with the pros

Ken Block and Magnus Walker.....it's ridiculous how far video games have come! What happened to Spy Hunter, Pole Position and Moon Patrol?

That does look like a heck of a video game.

I still play with my Cruis'n USA

and don't think these gamers can't drive either. In last years bathurst 12 hour race (production racers) here in Australia they put 3 video gamers (best in the world) into a Nissan Skyline GTR. After 12 hours, having never raced on the rack in real live before, only on games, they came first. Beat professional tenured racers who'd raced hundreds of times around there who were in Lambo's, R8's, Ferrari's, Bentley's etc.
