Toyota Gazoo e-Racing (TGR) has announced the first ever "GR Supra Gran Turismo (GT) Cup 2020" e-motorsport contest in India.



To enter the contest, motorsports fans and gamers alike must have a virtual version of the Toyota GR Supra in the Gran Turismo Sport driving simulator on PlayStation4 and an online account. The top three finalists will be rewarded with prize equivalent of Rs. 1 lakh, Rs. 75,000 and Rs. 50,000 respectively. The top 10 winners will also receive GR merchandise.

Besides the e-motorsport event, Toyota has also announced a GR quiz contest for those who don't own PlayStations. Ten winners of the quiz contest will receive PlayStations as a reward.

It's great news that we are now getting some attention from major manufacturers. Saw this earlier today in one of the GranTurismo-India whatsapp groups I am part of, and people are generally happy about such a news. From Toyota's point of view, minimal investment and I think minimal returns too, given the race simulation community in India isn't that big - and such gamers wouldn't be very fond of the A-to-B kind of products Toyota has in India anyway. Still, they will make an impression.
Guess it's time to get my Thrustmaster out and start practicing, though I stand no chance. clap:

Hey Chugh, any way you can add me on the WhatsApp group? I've been playing GT sport for over a year now, and would like to be a part of some Indian lobbies.

Sure thing, can you PM me any information I can use to send you a link? Warning; The group is super active throughout the day.
