Default Guy goes from gamer to professional racing driver
One day this guy is playing Gran Turismo 5 on a PlayStation, then 3 years later he's racing at Le Mans! [shocked]

Come on, you can't tell me that at least some of you aren't even a teensy bit jealous.

I'm jealous as heck. A friend of mine is really really good at anything that involves racing, be it on his motorcycle, in a car, in a kart, or even in videogames. Doesn't even have to work for it, it just comes naturally. What takes me five laps do to, he needs three corners. It's crazy. And I'm not even that bad a racer!

Meh, read about this months ago, in fact I think it was last year. Didn't really think much of it.

I surprised myself recently, I'm a fairly decent race car driver in games and even competed in large tournaments and even made it into the top team(s) in TMN and TMNF before it went down hill.

Not long ago while working I decided to get the work ute and start drifting around the place (had the site all to myself). It didn't take me long before I got the hang of it and I surprised even myself at how quickly I grasped it. It's so much easier then it looks. And it was my first time ever drifting in a car. It's so much fun[thumbup]

Just hope the boss never finds out lol. I still do it from time to time.
