Well you guys still wont be able to deduce it. They're doing a really clever job in keeping it under wraps. But just so you know, there's no way to figure out who won by who came home, 'cause every one went home today regardless.

So just sit tight, it's gonna be a great show :)

Nooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't do that to us!!! Wait! Does that mean none of you guys know who won yet??

Unless someone slips up no one knows except for the guys who were there. If I find out who it is I'm still going to keep it to myself lol.

I've done some snooping and enquiring. From what I gather the winner's name begins with J.

If that is true, there are still 3 finalists with a name beginning with J. It could be true, or you could just be throwing that out there to see if anyone reacts to it. As anxious as I am to find out who has won ... I'll wait for the official announcement. Cheers!
 
I'd give it a few days tops until everyone that wants to know the winner knows it. That said - I'd rather not know until I watch the show. Otherwise it's like watching a recorded sporting event knowing the score: kinda interesting but not nearly as much as it could've been if I hadn't checked the score.

If true then it's down to two J's remaining lol. I know a few finalists out for sure one of them being a baby kangaroo. We'll see if anyone gets the reference ;) haha.
 
Just wanna send kudos to the many top GTAcademy participants (Tidgeny I wouldn't have all prizes if not for you). You guys make this game shine IMO, and I hope that future GTAcademy events will someday bring you guys closer to your dream.
Your hard work and attention to details separates you guys from the average GT player, and should be commended.
 
It wouldn't surprise me if Jeff Stuart won it this year. I know he's got plenty off autox and track time under his belt. I was actually surprised at nationals talking to the guys how many of us had real HPD (high performance driving) experience.

hehe cheers, I'm happy to help and feel free to ask me any questions in the future :). For me i'm giving it one more go (I've just started training physically for the next one again) and then if I don't make it I'm entering motorsport a different way even if it's rallying once every 1/4 of a year, or finding a team else where. As wolf, denilson and others have said on the EU post in the end we all have a passion for motorsports and I hope to even just race even if it's just a small time hobby, I already marshal rallies which I enjoy anyway so anything else is a bonus :D.
 
And we've got a premier date:

Gonna be awesome!

And as for guys in Europe, I'm confident there'll be many people streaming the show online for you to watch it as well 👍

Cool, I'm sure the level of production is gonna be very high. Wasn't there like 90 people in the crew?

There are going to be 6 separate shows for Europe, each in different languages for the territory audiences. The UK one doesn't air until January as far as I know but some other countries may start theirs as early as November as well.
 
Awesome, I didn't know for sure how the other GTA's were going to be shown so that's great to hear, I'll definitely keep an eye out for more info. as I'd love to watch.

We heard stories of the different county's film crews fighting between each other during the European week xD.

And yeah, our crew was massive, so big there was no way you could meet every one, or even see every member of the crew.
 
NO WAY THEY GOT THE BUSH AS A JUDGE THIS YEAR!!! This is going to be good
