The Gran Turismo Awards are back for a 7th year, ready to crown a new performance vehicle with the honor of getting digitally recreated in the Gran Turismo franchise. The awards event
will be held at Rain nightclub at the Palms hotel in Las Vegas
Wednesday evening, November 4th at 9:00 pm. In addition to the awards
ceremony, top music acts The Offspring and DJ Z-Trip will each play a
set to help celebrate the evening.
The Gran Turismo Awards at SEMA recognizes the best vehicles in five
different categories: Best Hot Rod, Best Asian Import, Best European
Import, Best Domestic Automobile, and Best Truck/SUV. After the five
category winners are judged and selected on performance and style by
leading automotive media, it then falls to Gran Turismo creator
Kazunori Yamauchi to select the overall GT Awards “Best in Show.”
Walking the show floor, Kazunori-san views all category winners and
selects the vehicle that best represents the Gran Turismo brand, and
one that will be immortalized as a fully playable part of the Gran
Turismo franchise for millions of fans around the world.In addition to the music acts following the awards ceremony, guests
will have a chance to check out the latest gameplay of Gran Turismo 5.
Winners from the past two GT Awards events, the 2007 HPA Audi TT from
the 2007 awards, and the 2007 high performance Infiniti G37 from the 2008 awards, will be playable in the latest version of Gran Turismo 5 at the event.
Also to help celebrate the awards and the upcoming SEMA week, we have teamed with the automotive enthusiast site Autoblog to have them give away a GT PSP entertainment pack
each day the entire week (five in all) starting Monday, November 2nd.
