GTP is host to the GT6 Nurburgring 24 Hours online endurance racing event organized by CORE. Running on its 3rd year for 2014 and on Gran Turismo 6 for the first time. Nine multi-driver teams from all over the world will challenge themselves with the grueling task of completing a 24 hour race in real time. As with real life endurance racing, this race will be all about strategy; it’s not all about speed, the teams that play their driver swaps, pitting, set up and adaptability to changing conditions the best will come out on top.
The entire GT3 class race will be streamed and documented with a large staff behind the scenes ensuring all goes smoothly. CORE has put together an exciting line up of events for spectators for this year’s race. Not limited to the main race, the 2014 N24 event is planned to keep viewers engaged in the lead up to the race with support races and live drifting shows during the livestreams.
