The 2015 Tokyo Auto Salon will be hosting a “Super Gran Turismo Competition” this weekend, which will see some of the country’s top professional drivers face off against one another along with some of the best GT players in the country.

“YAM”, two-time Red Bull 5G champion and Polyphony Digital advisor, will be racing against the drivers, along with one lucky Auto Salon attendee who sets the fastest lap at a special time trial hosted at the show.

There will be 1,000 tickets distributed for the event, which will be streamed live on NicoNico this Saturday, January 10th starting at 10:00 GMT/UTC (convert this to your local time).

The Gran Turismo booth at the Auto Salon will also feature the new SimCraft motion rig – the first full-motion simulator integrated with GT6 that was unveiled a few months ago at Fuji Speedway.

More details on the event are available on the PitStop blog, including this clip of a virtual race among several Super GT stars at Polyphony Digital’s headquarters last month.
