Caterham Japan came with the excellent idea to make a video of Route 246, what better way to do it than with a road going track car looking like the Stig!

Before this video I did not even know that the track "route 246" in Gran Turismo was based on real roads here in Tokyo. I actually drive there quite often with my bicycle. It was a blast driving shotgun around route 246 with the Caterham, especially when comparing it to playing it on the Playstation.

So for all you guys out there with a PS3 and GT5, compare the video to the track.

Music:
Surv1v3 - Daiki Kasho (Gran Turismo 5 Prologue)

    Is there a version of the video without the JC Penny teen collection commercial stock rock?
  • Remi Schouten plus 1 year ago
    Are you referring to the music? It's the music from Gran Turismo, not my favorite song either but fits the purpose I guess.
  • Sven Uilhoorn 1 year ago
    It would if the camera was used more Bourne-style.. You just drove at the maximum speed allowed on those roads? Didn´t even know there was a Caterham in GT.. (got here from Kotaku btw)
  • Remi Schouten plus 1 year ago
    about the speed I will leave that to your imagination :D

    What is the Bourne-style btw?
  • Sven Uilhoorn 1 year ago
    Ghehe, I understand.. riding shotgun on a Caterham must be great fun!

    On the Bourne-style thing: copy "Bourne Ultimatum - Best scenes" in tjoewtjoep. You'll see what I mean; camera movement!

    Yeah, the song is the intro from Gran Turismo 5 Prologue. I like it but I too was kind of hoping for more of the engine sounds. Then again, if you were driving at normal speeds, the revs probably didn't soar that much.

    Nice vid and a great idea, must've been fun to do! I had to go check R246 on the game immediately after watching this.
  • Remi Schouten plus 1 year ago
    It's engine sounds would have made this video better, unfortunately my equipment and experience is limit. Forgot to record the sounds of the engine with an external recording device. But it sure was fun, the amount of attention these cars get here in Tokyo is crazy!

  • Remi Schouten plus 1 year ago
    It took about 5 hours to shoot this, and I actually didn't mount the 550D but my HF100, with a big suction thing I borrowed from a friend :)
