Default Ever wanna virtually drive the Dragon?

For those of us who have Gran Turismo 6, I found this track map of the dragon. Will definitely be trying it tonight and will post my impressions. Very cool!

There's also a lot of other tracks in the database...including VIR, CMP, Watkins Glen and Barber.

Leave it to an IT guy to post this up. Hell I guess I can set up the Mamba up on GT and then make the changes to the car. Remember to keep it between the mustard and mayo online too.

Well besides the drastic change in scenery, and the fact that it's not a sheer cliff, but rather guardrails, on each side it feels a lot like the dragon! Worth the download and drive
