A real driver at the controls of Need For Speed Shift 2

I want to make my point of view clear before presenting this video. The feeling of driving a real racing car compared to what a simulator gives you is, precisely, incomparable. For now, nothing replaces the force of G-forces, the perspectives of the track, and feeling every millimetre of rubber in contact with the asphalt.

Simulators come somewhat close to reality and offer an approximation of what it is like to drive on track, as well as serving as a perfect platform for learning circuits and braking points. True drivers will still know how to get value out of a game like Need For Speed Shift 2, as you will see below.

Tommy Milner is a driver for the Corvette Racing team in the American Le Mans Series and will possibly also be racing at Le Mans this year. The people at Electronic Arts wanted a professional driver to take a lap of Laguna Seca and, without hesitation, Milner has done it virtually, aboard the same car he uses in his racing career, the Corvette C6.R GT1. Do you think you can do better than him?
