What do you ACTUALLY have to achieve to get through the qualifiers?

What ranking?

Can't find the rules anywhere yet, but... nothing counts until the final week, when the "Final Trial" event is unlocked. That time trial will determine who goes onto the Regional Finals for each country.

The number of players that go to Regional/National Finals depends on what country you're in.

For the US, it's the top 32 they're taking, for the European countries it'll vary from 2 to 12 or so - again, depends.

For Sweden it's the 4 fastest driver from the demo + the 2 fastest drivers from a live event. They will go to the final for the Nordic countries where six drivers will be selected to go the Silverstona race camp.

Are you sure that's right? I thought it was the times from the 5th Event and that's it, from the official GTA page, no mention on another event for the final week. I'm new to this format, only took part in the January 2013 one and that was very straight forward in comparison!

Connect to the PlayStation®Store from the XMB (cross media bar) of the PlayStation®3, and download the free GT Academy 2013 demo.

Begin playing the demo. As the demo progresses, GT Academy 2013 will become available, consisting of 5 events. Play the first 4 non-competitive rounds of the demo. Residents of GT Academy 2013 participating territories who progress to the 5th and final round (GT Academy 2013 online qualification round), will be required to accept terms of agreement before proceeding. These terms will be displayed in the demo before the online qualification round and you should only participate in the online qualification round if these terms are acceptable to you.

The result attained in the online qualification round will be used to determine which entrants from GT Academy 2013 participant territories may progress to further stages in the competition. Your ranking within your participating territory will be displayed, so aim for the top!

If you are eligible to progress to further stages of the competition based on your results in the online qualification round, we will contact you using the details registered in your SEN account. Please double check that your contact details in your SEN account are up to date before the end of the online qualifying period on 28 July 2013.

The final event is already unlocked.

Edit:

... For the US, it's the top 32 they're taking, for the European countries it'll vary from 2 to 12 or so - again, depends.

Be clear that is the eligible drivers that make it to the event, so even if you are not in the top 12 , the ones before you might not be eligible or might not make it to the next event, so you can be selected.

Thousands of trials and errors and hoping for that one perfect lap!

Anyway, read up on the T&C on your country's gt site. It differs from country to country
