Behold what Polyphony Digital probably further delayed the game for. :P

Gamersyde: X1 Prototype

Not the most attractive design IMO, but still pretty interesting.

Can someone please tell me if the last part of the Gran Turismo 5 Prototype X1 video stream is in real life of not? I don't think they'd actually make the car in real life but i thought the video looked pretty real. I'm more inclined to say it's a gt5 footage because those gforce from cornering is impossible...

I think it looks slick! But that's the least impressive of its features. It's the fastest freaking land vehicle in the world! (if it were allowed to be manufactured :P). Driving from the cockpit will be a thrill.

Seriously They should just release the game already. Why did they waste their time making go-karts for the game. GO KARTS?! No wonder this game got delayed so many time. PD is just wasting time.

It's based on real numbers, designs, and tests. They've calculated every aspect of the vehicle. Lets not forget, almost all manufacturers use simulations to test out ideas, that may eventually come to fruition.

I can do the same thing. My car would go 5,000 mph. The X1 was designed by red bull, maker of energy drinks.

His car would have to reach close to mach 7 while maintaining structural integrity and generating enough down force to keep it from flying off the ground. :P

There's a bit of a difference between Red Bull and Red Bull Racing. The main one being that one of them is an F1 team.

FAIL. Red Bull owns Red Bull Racing, a Formula One team.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Bull_Racing

secondly, the specs were calculated, just like what the above poster said.

you don't see it in F1 races because of restrictions and rules, and due to the safety of the driver.

the racing tracks worldwide are not apt for the speeds that the X1 reaches. to accommodate higher speeds, the tracks should be redesigned. it's okay for GT5 since no one will get hurt by driving this car.

also, 5,000 kmh? epic fail again. GT5 is going for realism. you do know that the X1 produces the maximum G-force a human can take while driving? again, all calculated. this isn't some bullcrap just spouted by a forum poster. let me see you drive this thing in real life.

Oh god... You really know nothing do you? Red Bull Racing is one of the best teams in F1. Adrian Newey (the guy Kaz worked with) has had the BEST F1 designs in terms of aerodynamics and down force. The RB6 F1 cars have the BEST apex times in F1 racing because how much grip they can get simply because of downforce.

I really like this car ! It's design looks like a mix of a F 1 car and a Le Mans prototype , it is very fast ( in his first tries Sebastian Vettel managed to achieve in Suzuka a lap time 20 secs faster than the lap record ) , and it has some amazing features we rarely see in other racing cars ( like the fan mechanism at the back which forces the air out from underneath the car, to reduce air pressure under the car s floor , so the car can create a massive amount of downforce, and is able to maintain high cornering speeds even in low speed corners ) .

Also for the ones that say that this is made by a simple maker of energy drinks : Actually Adrian Newey , the main designer of the car is considered one of the best car designers in F 1 . Before he entered Red bull Racing , he had designed some of the best cars , like the ones who won the driver's championship titles for Williams at 1992 and 1993 ( with Nigel Mansell, and Alain Prost as drivers ) , and Mclaren at 1998 and 1999 ( with Mika Häkkinen as driver ). Also the recent years ( when he entered Red bull Racing )he has managed to make some of the most competive cars on the grid.
