Logitech Challenge in GT5 Prologue

Logitech GT5 Prologue Challenge

A new official competition is afoot in Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, and while it may not be quite as good as the ultimate racing cockpit, a trip to the GT Academy, or the Drifting World Championships, you’ve got a much better chance at winning something.  The Logitech Challenge begins tomorrow, and will consist of three week-long events.  The top three finishers from each week will win prizes from – you guessed it – Logitech, including steering wheels, speakers, and more.  Specifics on what cars will be used will only be released at the beginning of each week, but here is what we know so far:

  1. “Mid Car” @ High Speed Ring – March 18 through March 24
  2. “Sports Car” @ Eiger Nordwand – March 25 through March 31
  3. “Sports Car” @ Suzuka – April 1 through April 7

The prizes awarded each week:

First Place: Logitech Driving Force GT steering wheel, Logitech Audio Hub Speakers, and a Logitech V470 wireless laser mouse.
Second Place: Logitech Driving Force Wireless wheel and Logitech Z-5 speakers.
Third Place: Logitech Driving Force Wireless wheel and a Logitech V470 wireless laser mouse.

Of course, if you can’t break into the top three, you still have a chance to win – each week, 5 randomly selected participants will be awarded Driving Force GT wheels.  The competition is only available to United States residents over the age of 18 (official rules here), which should help fend off some of those crazy-fast Europeans.  It all starts tomorrow – let’s hope we see some GTPlanet Registry drivers at the top of the leaderboards!

    @PJ: I’m going to have to assume from the context of your post that your mom lives in the United States and you do not. I would say that if you set up a PSN account in your mother’s name, with her address, your times would be considered valid. I’m not suggesting that anyone try to break the legal restrictions of the competition, but I do not see any technical way that Sony could prevent that from occurring.

    @RT: Most Americans said the same thing when we had to miss out on the GT Academy. :( I would take that over a Logitech steering wheel any day!
