My daughter has recently come to the conclusion that her goal in life is to own a big pink house with red hearts, and live with my driver (Bob) so he can teach her how to drive.

My wife and I have noticed this on several occassions, and we've both offered to teach her any time she's ready, but she insists that she only wants my driver (Bob) to teach her because he drives fast.

A few days ago, while driving around, my wife gave the car a bit of sudden acceleration around a turn (God knows why), and my daughter yells out "Yes! That's what I've been waiting for!!!", and constantly nags me to drive faster.

Clearly, it's becoming a problem, because the worst part is she's only 3 years old (4 in August)!

Any other dads discover future problems/proud moments with their kids and GT5? Share your story here, give your kid a kiss... then take 'em out and give 'em a donut!
 
I can assure you that her interest in your hobby will decrease very soon. Both my girls were at the height of interest around 3-4 years of age, now that they are 5 and 7 years this is totally uninteresting. But after some training they managed to keep the car in the road at speeds up to 230 km/h, limited to that they controlled the steering wheel while I controlled acceleration and braking, just remember to turn down the force feed back!

Well my 11 year old son 3 days ago complimented me on my driving as I cornered like BoB does in GT5!! My wife is the opposite and believes that since playing GT5 I drive like a lunatic LOL :crazy:

She'll learn to trust you once you save the bacon in an emergency situation. Because of GT5, my wife wants me to drive everywhere. She's been with me throughout all sorts of conditions and obstacles, and knows that I'd never put her life in jeopardy.

Oklahoma drivers aren't the greatest, so if you can make it here, you can make it anywhere.
 
About to be 4 & 5 and it's ALWAYS a back seat race! "Daddy's winning. Go faster Daddy." It's not a race kids; but that never sinks in. 4 y.o. loves the Kublewagon. 5 year old is too competitive to let her drive. If she loses (which is always the case) then it becomes a monsoon of tears. She competes in everything. Going up the stairs, boogie boarding. Even when the other person has no idea their in a competition!
 
Bob's driving school:


"There are three things to do it. Brake super early, Don't overtake and drift around the corners. Basicaly your job is to piss your manager off"

This ^ is my bob.

No kids, but thanks for the entertaining story. I have watched some teenagers drive the game in head to head. The boyfriend beat the girlfriend, but she wasn't disappointed and continued to play on a few times.

My fiancee on the other hand has not yet completed the 200 meter braking challenge. She seems to always go off course somehow :D
